* Ivy

Ivy is my completion backend of choice (over ido and helm), for its speed and
simplicity. With ivy's help and some hackery, I get the following features:

+ Project-wide search & replace.
+ Project jump-to navigation ala Command-T, Sublime Text's Jump-to-anywhere or Vim's CtrlP plugin.
+ Ivy integration for ~M-x~, ~imenu~, ~recentf~ and others.
+ A powerful, interactive in-buffer search using ~swiper~.
+ Ivy-powered TODO/FIXME navigation

** Dependencies
This module depends only on [[https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep][ripgrep]].

*** MacOS
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :tangle (if (doom-system-os 'macos) "yes")
brew install ripgrep
#+END_SRC

*** Arch Linux
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir /sudo:: :tangle (if (doom-system-os 'arch) "yes")
sudo pacman --needed --noconfirm -S ripgrep
#+END_SRC

** Highlights
*** Search & Replace
A project-wide search can be performed by invoking ~counsel-rg~ or via the ex
command (evil-mode): ~:find~.

From this session, you can press =Shift + Tab= to create an writeable occur
buffer in wgrep mode.

Make your modifications and press =C-c C-c= to commit them, or =C-c C-k= to
abort.

*** Jump-to-file project navigation
Inspired by Sublime Text's jump-to-anywhere, Vim's CtrlP or Unite plugins, and
Textmate's Command-T, a marriage of ~projectile~ and ~ivy~ makes this available
to you in Emacs. Invoke it with =, /= or ~counsel-projectile-find-file~.

*** In-buffer searching
I prefer to use ~evil-search~ (invoked by pressing =/= in normal mode) when
jumping small/moderate (or predictable) distances. On occasion I need more
feedback, so I turn to ~swiper~ (available directly with =M-x swiper RET=, or
via ~:sw[iper]~).

*** TODO-Task lookup
I sprinkle my projects with TODO's & FIXME's. Using ivy and ripgrep, I wrote
~+ivy/tasks~ to help me navigate to them. It can be invoked via ~:todo[!]~ as
well.

*** Commands & Keybindings
Here is a list of my commonly used commands, their default keybinds (defined in
[[../../private/hlissner/+bindings.el][private/hlissner/+bindings.el]]), and their corresponding ex command (defined in
[[../../private/hlissner/+commands.el][private/hlissner/+commands.el]]).

| command                             | key / ex command        | description                                               |
|-------------------------------------+-------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------|
| ~counsel-M-x~                       | ~M-x~                   | Smarter, smex-powered M-x                                 |
| ~counsel-bookmark~                  | ~, b~                   | Find bookmark                                             |
| ~counsel-find-file~                 | ~, .~                   | Browse from current directory                             |
| ~counsel-projectile-find-file~      | ~, /~                   | Find file in project                                      |
| ~counsel-projectile-switch-project~ | ~, p~                   | Open another project                                      |
| ~counsel-recentf~                   | ~, r~                   | Find recently opened file                                 |
| ~+ivy/switch-buffer~                | ~, ,~                   | Jump to open buffer in current workspace                  |
| ~+ivy/switch-workspace-buffer~      | ~, <~                   | Jump to open buffer across workspaces                     |
| ~+ivy:file-search~                  | ~:f[in]d[!] [QUERY]~    | Search project (if BANG, don't respect gitignore)         |
| ~+ivy:file-search-cwd~              | ~:f[in]dcwd[!] [QUERY]~ | Search project in cwd (if BANG, don't respect gitignore)  |
| ~+ivy:swiper~                       | ~:sw[iper] [QUERY]~     | Search current buffer                                     |
| ~+ivy:todo~                         | ~:todo[!]~              | List all TODO/FIXMEs in project (or current file if BANG) |

While in an ~counsel-rg~ search (e.g. invoked from ~+ivy:file-search~), these
new keybindings are available to you:

| key         | description                                                                    |
|-------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| =<backtab>= | Perform search/replace on the search results (open occur buffer in wgrep mode) |
| =C-SPC=     | Preview the current candidate                                                  |
| =M-RET=     | Open the selected candidate in other-window                                    |

*** Hacks
+ Where possible, functions with ivy/counsel equivalents have been remapped
  (like ~find-file~ => ~counsel-find-file~). So a keybinding to ~find-file~ will
  invoke ~counsel-find-file~ instead.
+ ~counsel-rg~'s 3-character limit was reduced to 1 (mainly for the ex command)
+ ~counsel-rg~'s parentheses quoting behavior was reversed. Now, if you
  want literal parentheses, you must escape them: e.g. ~\(match\)~ is literal,
  ~(match)~ is a regexp group.
