Default selected status

[notfound4]

I'am writting a plugin and I am having a problem related to telescope.

At some point, a command of my plugin open telescope to allow the user to selected one or more entry. What I'd like to do is having all the entry selected by default. I tried to find a solution but I'am still clueless on how to do it ?

Do you have any solution ?

Here is a simplified version of my code:

local finders = require("telescope.finders")
local pickers = require("telescope.pickers")
local sorters = require("telescope.sorters")

local finder = finders.new_table({
  results = spec.items,
  entry_maker = function(entry)
    ...
  end,
})

local picker_opts = {
  prompt_title = spec.title or "Select Item",
  file_ignore_patterns = {},
  find_files_ignore_patterns = {},
  hidden = true ,
  finder = finder,
  sorter = sorters.get_generic_fuzzy_sorter({}),
  cwd = spec.cwd or vim.loop.cwd(),
  attach_mappings = function(prompt_bufnr, map)
    actions.select_default:replace(function()
      ...
    end)
    return true
  end,
}

pickers.new(picker_opts):find()

Use the multi-select API inside on_complete — pre-mark each entry right after the picker renders:

local picker = pickers.new(opts, { finder = finder, sorter = sorters.get_fuzzy_file() })
picker:find()
vim.schedule(function()
  for i = 1, #spec.items do
    picker:add_selection(picker:get_row(i - 1))
  end
end)

add_selection is the public multi-select API; scheduling gives the picker time to populate the display buffer before you mark rows.
