Configuration
Add this to your keymap.toml:
[[mgr.prepend_keymap]]
on = [ "P", "s" ]
run = "plugin projects save"
desc = "Save current project"
[[mgr.prepend_keymap]]
on = [ "P", "l" ]
run = "plugin projects load"
desc = "Load project"
[[mgr.prepend_keymap]]
on = [ "P", "P" ]
run = "plugin projects load_last"
desc = "Load last project"
[[mgr.prepend_keymap]]
on = [ "P", "d" ]
run = "plugin projects delete"
desc = "Delete project"
[[mgr.prepend_keymap]]
on = [ "P", "D" ]
run = "plugin projects delete_all"
desc = "Delete all projects"
[[mgr.prepend_keymap]]
on = [ "P", "m" ]
run = "plugin projects 'merge current'"
desc = "Merge current tab to other projects"
[[mgr.prepend_keymap]]
on = [ "P", "M" ]
run = "plugin projects 'merge all'"
desc = "Merge current project to other projects"
If you want to save the last project when exiting, map the default quit key to:
[[mgr.prepend_keymap]]
on = [ "q" ]
run = "plugin projects quit"
desc = "Save last project and exit the process"
Don't forget to add the plugin's setup function in Yazi's init.lua, i.e. ~/.config/yazi/init.lua.
The following are the default configurations:
require("projects"):setup({
save = {
method = "yazi", -- yazi | lua
lua_save_path = "", -- comment out to get the default value
-- windows: "%APPDATA%/yazi/state/projects.json"
-- unix: "~/.local/state/yazi/projects.json"
},
last = {
update_after_save = true,
update_after_load = true,
load_after_start = false,
},
merge = {
event = "projects-merge",
quit_after_merge = false,
},
event = {
save = {
enable = true,
name = "project-saved",
},
load = {
enable = true,
name = "project-loaded",
},
delete = {
enable = true,
name = "project-deleted",
},
delete_all = {
enable = true,
name = "project-deleted-all",
},
merge = {
enable = true,
name = "project-merged",
},
},
notify = {
enable = true,
title = "Projects",
timeout = 3,
level = "info",
},
})
Note
Settings that are not set will use the default value.

yazi: usingyaziapi to save to.ddsfilelua: usingluaapi to save
lua_save_path: the path of saved file with lua api, the defalut is
Windows:%APPDATA%/yazi/state/projects.jsonUnix:~/.local/state/yazi/projects.json
