A NeoVim plugin that uses Tree-sitter to allow jumping between the matching opposing end of a Tree-sitter node, such as brackets, quotes, and more.
- If the cursor is on the start or end of a Tree-sitter node (e.g. a
{), jump to the other end - If the cursor is somewhere in the middle of a Tree-sitter node, jump to the end of the node
When using Tree-sitter, the % motion of NeoVim doesn't always work reliably,
as it requires syntax information not present when using Tree-sitter. This is
most notable when you're jumping between matching brackets (e.g. { and }),
but there are a lot of lines in between, as in this case % might jump to some
random location in the middle.
This plugin solves this issue by using Tree-sitter when enabled, falling back to
the default % behaviour if Tree-sitter isn't enabled. When Tree-sitter is
available, you can jump between the start and end of any Tree-sitter node. Take
this Lua code for example:
exampleWhen you place the cursor on the e in example and press %, the cursor
jumps to the closing e. If you then press % again, it jumps back to the
starting e.

main, 0.9.5 might also work but I haven't verified this - nvim-treesitter
Add yorickpeterse/nvim-tree-pairs using your favourite package manager, then
add the following somewhere to your init.lua:
require('tree-pairs').setup()This creates a "pairs" Tree-sitter module that's enabled automatically. You can
disable it (if needed) using :TSDisable pairs.
This plugin doesn't have any language specific handling or Tree-sitter queries,
meaning it can't handle jumping from e.g. the Lua then keyword to the next
elseif keyword. This is by design, as the intent of this plugin is to be as
simple as possible. Patches that apply language specific handling won't be
accepted.
