# General principles ~
- <Design>. Each module is designed to solve a particular problem targeting
balance between feature-richness (handling as many edge-cases as
possible) and simplicity of implementation/support. Granted, not all of
them ended up with the same balance, but it is the goal nevertheless.
- <Independence>. Modules are independent of each other and can be run
without external dependencies. Although some of them may need
dependencies for full experience.
- <Structure>. Each module is a submodule for a placeholder "mini" module. So,
for example, "surround" module should be referred to as "mini.surround".
As later will be explained, this plugin can also be referred to
as "MiniSurround".
- <Setup>:
- Each module you want to use should be enabled separately with
`require(<name of module>).setup({})`. Possibly replace `{}` with
your config table or omit altogether to use defaults. You can supply
only parts of config, the rest will be inferred from defaults.
- Call to module's `setup()` always creates a global Lua object with
coherent camel-case name: `require('mini.surround').setup()` creates
`_G.MiniSurround`. This allows for a simpler usage of plugin
functionality: instead of `require('mini.surround')` use
`MiniSurround` (or manually `:lua MiniSurround.*` in command line);
available from `v:lua` like `v:lua.MiniSurround`. Considering this,
"module" and "Lua object" names can be used interchangeably:
'mini.surround' and 'MiniSurround' will mean the same thing.
- Each supplied `config` table (after extending with default values) is
stored in `config` field of global object. Like `MiniSurround.config`.
- Values of `config`, which affect runtime activity, can be changed on
the fly to have effect. For example, `MiniSurround.config.n_lines`
can be changed during runtime; but changing
`MiniSurround.config.mappings` won't have any effect (as mappings are
created once during `setup()`).
- <Buffer local configuration>. Each module can be additionally configured
to use certain runtime config settings locally to buffer.
See |mini.nvim-buffer-local-config| for more information.
- <Disabling>. Each module's core functionality can be disabled globally or
locally to buffer. See "Disabling" section in module's help page for more
details. See |mini.nvim-disabling-recipes| for common recipes.
- <Silencing>. Each module can be configured to not show non-error feedback
globally or locally to buffer. See "Silencing" section in module's help page
for more details.
- <Highlighting>. Appearance of module's output is controlled by certain set
of highlight groups (see |highlight-groups|). By default they usually link to
some semantically close built-in highlight group. Use |:highlight| command
or |nvim_set_hl()| Lua function to customize highlighting.
To see a more calibrated look, use |MiniHues|, |MiniBase16|, or plugin's
colorschemes.
- <Stability>. Each module upon release is considered to be relatively
stable: both in terms of setup and functionality. Any non-bugfix
backward-incompatible change will be released gradually as much as possible.
# List of modules ~
- |MiniAi| - extend and create `a`/`i` textobjects (like in `di(` or
`va"`). It enhances some builtin |text-objects| (like |a(|, |a)|, |a'|,
and more), creates new ones (like `a*`, `a<Space>`, `af`, `a?`, and
more), and allows user to create their own (like based on treesitter, and
more). Supports dot-repeat, `v:count`, different search methods,
consecutive application, and customization via Lua patterns or functions.
Has builtins for brackets, quotes, function call, argument, tag, user
prompt, and any punctuation/digit/whitespace character.
- |MiniAlign| - align text interactively (with or without instant preview).
Allows rich and flexible customization of both alignment rules and user
interaction. Works with charwise, linewise, and blockwise selections in
both Normal mode (on textobject/motion; with dot-repeat) and Visual mode.
- |MiniAnimate| - animate common Neovim actions. Has "works out of the box"
builtin animations for cursor movement, scroll, resize, window open and
close. All of them can be customized and enabled/disabled independently.

palette. Supports 30+ plugin integrations. Has unique palette generator
which needs only background and foreground colors.
- |MiniBasics| - common configuration presets. Has configurable presets for
options, mappings, and autocommands. It doesn't change option or mapping
if it was manually created.

*mini.nvim-disabling-recipes*
Common recipes for disabling functionality
Each module's core functionality can be disabled globally or buffer-locally
by creating appropriate global or buffer-scoped variables equal to |v:true|.
Functionality is disabled if at least one of |g:| or |b:| variables is `v:true`.
Variable names have the same structure: `{g,b}:mini*_disable` where `*` is
module's lowercase name. For example, `g:minianimate_disable` disables
|mini.animate| globally and `b:minianimate_disable` - for current buffer.
Note: in this section disabling 'mini.animate' is used as example;
everything holds for other module variables.
Considering high number of different scenarios and customization intentions,
writing exact rules for disabling module's functionality is left to user.
# Manual disabling ~
>lua
-- Disable globally
vim.g.minianimate_disable = true
-- Disable for current buffer
vim.b.minianimate_disable = true
-- Toggle (disable if enabled, enable if disabled)
vim.g.minianimate_disable = not vim.g.minianimate_disable -- globally
vim.b.minianimate_disable = not vim.b.minianimate_disable -- for buffer
<
# Automated disabling ~
Automated disabling is suggested to be done inside autocommands: >lua
-- Disable for a certain filetype (for example, "lua")
local f = function(args) vim.b[args.buf].minianimate_disable = true end
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('Filetype', { pattern = 'lua', callback = f })
-- Enable only for certain filetypes (for example, "lua" and "help")
local f = function(args)
local ft = vim.bo[args.buf].filetype
if ft == 'lua' or ft == 'help' then return end
vim.b[args.buf].minianimate_disable = true
end
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('Filetype', { callback = f })
-- Disable in Visual mode
local f_en = function(args) vim.b[args.buf].minianimate_disable = false end
local enable_opts = { pattern = '[vV\x16]*:*', callback = f_en }
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('ModeChanged', enable_opts)
local f_dis = function(args) vim.b[args.buf].minianimate_disable = true end
local disable_opts = { pattern = '*:[vV\x16]*', callback = f_dis }
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('ModeChanged', disable_opts)
-- Disable in Terminal buffer
local f = function(args) vim.b[args.buf].minianimate_disable = true end
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('TermOpen', { callback = f })
<
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*mini.nvim-buffer-local-config*
Buffer local config
Each module can be additionally configured locally to buffer by creating
appropriate buffer-scoped variable with values you want to override. It
will affect only runtime options and not those used once during setup (like
`mappings` or `set_vim_settings`).
Variable names have the same structure: `b:mini*_config` where `*` is
module's lowercase name. For example, `b:minianimate_config` can store
information about how |mini.animate| will act inside current buffer. Its
value should be a table with same structure as module's `config`. Example: >lua
-- Disable scroll animation in current buffer
vim.b.minianimate_config = { scroll = { enable = false } }
<
Considering high number of different scenarios and customization intentions,
writing exact rules for module's buffer local configuration is left to
user. It is done in similar fashion to |mini.nvim-disabling-recipes|.
