How to convert this vimscript code into Lazyvim Lua code?
function! BreakHere() s/^\(\s*\)\(.\{-}\)\(\s*\)\(\%#\)\(\s*\)\(.*\)/\1\2\r\1\4\6 call histdel("/", -1) endfunction nnoremap K :<C-u>call BreakHere()<CR>

- the idea splitting line help of keymap capital k (shift + k), opposite of capital j (joining line) works well vimscript help above vim code. but not in neovim lua (Lazyvim). is possible ??jayachandran– jayachandran2024-12-10 07:55:54 +00:00Commented Dec 10, 2024 at 7:55

I would do:
vim.keymap.set('n', 'K', function() vim.cmd([[s/^\(\s*\)\(.\{-}\)\(\s*\)\(\%#\)\(\s*\)\(.*\)/\1\2\r\1\4\6]]) vim.fn.histdel('/', -1) end, {}) Remark:
- To map keys you can use the
vim.keymap.setapi [[...]]is the Lua notation for raw string (the equivalent of r".." string in Python).- To access the Vim builtin function you can use the
vim.fncollection
Remark: for LazyVim the mapping code standard location is ~/.config/nvim/lua/config/keymaps.lua on Linux and ~/AppData/Local/nvim/lua/config/keymaps.lua on Windows.
Remark: Here is a variation of the expression that avoid breaking within the words:
vim.keymap.set('n', 'K', function() vim.cmd([[s/\v^(\s*)(.{-})(>\s*)(\S*%#)(\s*)(.*)/\1\2\r\1\4\6]]) vim.fn.histdel('/', -1) end, {}) Remark: If autoindent is set you could also do approximate with:
vim.keymap.set('n', 'K', 'EBi<CR><Esc>EB', {}) - thank help convert lua script with zero error. But it doesn't work well, The idea is Splitting line capital k (shift+k) opposite of capital J (joining line), In vim script work quiet well.

It would help us reproducing the problem :-)2024-12-10 07:58:24 +00:00Commented Dec 10, 2024 at 7:58
