Recipe: wiki-links hints

[dpetrouk]

Figured out how to activate links hints (like in vimium) with flash.nvim.

Show hints on leader + fl. Typing a or s here performs jump to a corresponding link ([[test]] or [[test3]]).

Added this to init.lua:

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("FileType", {
  pattern = { "markdown", "obsidian" },
  callback = function()
    vim.keymap.set("n", "fl", function()
      require("flash").jump({
        search = { mode = "search" },
	pattern = '\\[\\[.\\{-}\\]\\]',
      })
    end, { noremap = true, silent = true, buffer = true, desc = "Show wiki-links hints" })
  end,
})

For a long time I tried to use nvim-treesitter with markdown to find wiki-links, but with no success. I am new to nvim, so I suppose there should be more adequate solution.

P.S.

Better solution in comment

great one! some additional context:

1. you can do ]o and [o to navigate to next/prev link, it does more than just wiki links, I guess I would deserve a whole plugin to do jump with flash/leap through all the link types this plugin supports
2. there's no filetype called "obsidian" (yet), so you can either add it to markdown in general, or see https://github.com/obsidian-nvim/obsidian.nvim/wiki/Autocmds or use the opts.callback.enter_note to only add keymap to obsidian buffer

1. Cool! Also found convenient shortcuts ]] or [[ to move between sections.
2. So more aqequate place for this autocommand will be in config in configuration file.
   It works:
   In ./config/nvim/lua/plugins/obsidian.lua in config function:

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("User", {
 pattern = "ObsidianNoteEnter",
 callback = function(ev)
    vim.keymap.set("n", "fl", function()
      require("flash").jump({
        search = { mode = "search" },
        pattern = '\\[\\[.\\{-}\\]\\]',
      })
    end, { noremap = true, silent = true, buffer = true, desc = "Show wiki-links hints" })
 end,
})

Thank you for your work!
