last-sessions.nvim

Save and Load sessions without :mksessions

Why?

There are many plugins to save and restore current session to file. I used some plugins which wrapped native :mksession of neovim. But the :mksession and restore command doesn't work what I expected. They omitted some files from opened buffer. And some plugins have too heavy features to use this plugin for just saving last session. So I made this plugin without using :mksession and restore opened buffer files correctly when VimLeave.

It is still developing, so I'll fix it continuously until I satisfied.

Requirements

Installation

-- lazy.nvim
return {
  'Jaehaks/last-session.nvim',
  branch = 'main',
  opts = {}
}

configuration

-- This is default configuration
opts = {
  auto_save    = false,     -- save last session automatically when VimLeave
  path         = vim.fn.stdpath('data') .. '/last-session/last-session.json',
  ignored_list = {
    ignored_type = {},    -- List of file extensions or filetypes to ignore
    ignored_dir  = {},    -- List of directory path patterns to ignore
  }
}

ignored_list

It is table which includes filetype, extension or directory string pattern to ignore for session

-- example
ignored_list = {
  ignored_type = {
    'help',
  },
  ignored_dir = {
    'doc\\',
  }
}
