🧰 MicroOmni v0.3.0 - 🔍️ The Ultimate Fuzzy Search

[Neko-Box-Coder]

❓️ Introduction

With the latest release of MicroOmni v0.3, I am happy that it is finally mature enough to be used.

The ultimate goal of MicroOmni is to have an all-in-one plugin that makes micro on-par with (or even better than) VScode, in terms of functionality.

The latest release brings more control to the tab bar, as well as other minor improvements.

While MicroOmni has more features than just performing fuzzy search, this post will just focus on all the search functionalities.

📦️ Installation

You can get MicroOmni from either

• Main channel in 📡 Unofficial Micro Plugin Channel #3350 (Stable Channel is still at v0.2.3 but will be updated soon)
  • (Ideally I want my unofficial channel to be featured in Micro but hey, I guess that will make it official 😂)
• Adding as pluginrepos https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Neko-Box-Coder/MicroOmni/master/repo.json

💡 The Ultimate Fuzzy Search

🗃️ Search Opened Tabs (v0.3.0+)

You can search all the open tabs (or more precisely buffer panes) in micro with fuzzy search. No longer need to switch through tabs to find the one tab you want. #2550

🔍️ Global Text Search (v0.2.0+)

A fuzzy global search powered by ripgrep and fzf. You can even specify which directory to search from.

📝 Files Search (v0.2.0+)

Similar to "Ctrl-g" in VSCode where you can quickly go to a file you want, this is the same but as fuzzy search AND a file preview.

🧭 Local Search (v0.2.0+)

While the current Find is not bad, it is quite limiting. Mainly it moves your cursor to the occurrence before knowing if that is what you are looking for or not. And also you have to type the exact match.

Now with Local Search, you can preview where you are going first before actually moving the cursor, typo is also not a problem anymore.

✨ Other Features?

There are still more to come for the plugin but many of the main ones are already completed. I will make a few more posts on other features in the short future but you can check them out now by going to https://github.com/Neko-Box-Coder/MicroOmni/tree/master
