Intro *vimwiki* Vimwiki is a personal wiki for Vim -- a number of linked text files that have their own syntax highlighting. With vimwiki you can: - organize notes and ideas; - manage todo-lists; - write documentation. To do a quick start press ww (this is usually \ww) to go to your index wiki file. By default it is located in: > ~/vimwiki/index.wiki Feed it with the following example: = My knowledge base = * Tasks -- things to be done _yesterday_!!! * Project Gutenberg -- good books are power. * Scratchpad -- various temporary stuff. Place your cursor on 'Tasks' and press Enter to create a link. Once pressed, 'Tasks' will become '[[Tasks]]' -- a vimwiki link. Press Enter again to open it. Edit the file, save it, and then press Backspace to jump back to your index. A vimwiki link can be constructed from more than one word. Just visually select the words to be linked and press Enter. Try it with 'Project Gutenberg'. The result should look something like: = My knowledge base = * [[Tasks]] -- things to be done _yesterday_!!! * [[Project Gutenberg]] -- good books are power. * Scratchpad -- various temporary stuff. ============================================================================== 2. Prerequisites *vimwiki-prerequisites* Make sure you have these settings in your vimrc file: > set nocompatible filetype plugin on syntax on Without them Vimwiki will not work properly. ============================================================================== 3. Mappings *vimwiki-mappings* There are global and local mappings in vimwiki. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.1. Global mappings *vimwiki-global-mappings* [count]ww or VimwikiIndex Open index file of the [count]'s wiki. ww opens the first wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 1ww as above, opens the first wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 2ww opens the second wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 3ww opens the third wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. etc. To remap: > :nmap w VimwikiIndex < See also |:VimwikiIndex| [count]wt or VimwikiTabIndex Open index file of the [count]'s wiki in a new tab. wt tabopens the first wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 1wt as above tabopens the first wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 2wt tabopens the second wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 3wt tabopens the third wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. etc. To remap: > :nmap t VimwikiTabIndex < See also |:VimwikiTabIndex| ws or VimwikiUISelect List and select available wikies. To remap: > :nmap wq VimwikiUISelect < See also |:VimwikiUISelect| [count]wi or VimwikiDiaryIndex Open diary index file of the [count]'s wiki. wi opens diary index file of the first wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 1wi the same as above. 2wi opens diary index file of the second wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. etc. To remap: > :nmap i VimwikiDiaryIndex See also |:VimwikiDiaryIndex| [count]ww or VimwikiMakeDiaryNote Open diary wiki-file for today of the [count]'s wiki. ww opens diary wiki-file for today in the first wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 1ww as above opens diary wiki-file for today in the first wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 2ww opens diary wiki-file for today in the second wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 3ww opens diary wiki-file for today in the third wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. etc. To remap: > :nmap d VimwikiMakeDiaryNote < See also |:VimwikiMakeDiaryNote| [count]wt or VimwikiTabMakeDiaryNote Open diary wiki-file for today of the [count]'s wiki in a new tab. wt tabopens diary wiki-file for today in the first wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 1wt as above tabopens diary wiki-file for today in the first wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 2wt tabopens diary wiki-file for today in the second wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. 3wt tabopens diary wiki-file for today in the third wiki from |g:vimwiki_list|. etc. To remap: > :nmap dt VimwikiTabMakeDiaryNote < See also |:VimwikiTabMakeDiaryNote| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.2. Local mappings To remap one of these keys, either put it in your .vimrc like this > :nmap wc Vimwiki2HTML or, the better way, put it in a file .vim/ftplugin/vimwiki.vim like this > :nmap wc Vimwiki2HTML The latter has the advantage that the mapping is local to viwiki buffers in every case. Also note that some keys work in normal mode as well as in visual mode. If you remap them using :map, they will also run in operator-pending mode. If you don't want that, use > :nmap tt VimwikiToggleListItem :vmap tt VimwikiToggleListItem NORMAL MODE *vimwiki-local-mappings* *vimwiki_wh* wh Convert current wiki page to HTML. Maps to |:Vimwiki2HTML| To remap: > :nmap wc Vimwiki2HTML < *vimwiki_whh* whh Convert current wiki page to HTML and open it in webbrowser.

See |vimwiki-toc| ============================================================================== 5. Wiki syntax *vimwiki-syntax* There are a lot of different wikies out there. Most of them have their own syntax and vimwiki's default syntax is not an exception here. Vimwiki has evolved its own syntax that closely resembles google's wiki markup. This syntax is described in detail below. Vimwiki also supports alternative syntaxes, like Markdown and MediaWiki, to varying degrees; see |vimwiki-option-syntax|. Static elements like headers, quotations, and lists are customized in syntax/vimwiki_xxx.vim, where xxx stands for the chosen syntax. Interactive elements such as links and vimwiki commands are supported by definitions and routines in syntax/vimwiki_xxx_custom.vim and autoload/vimwiki/xxx_base.vim. Currently, only Markdown includes this level of support. Vimwiki2HTML is currently functional only for the default syntax. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.1. Typefaces *vimwiki-syntax-typefaces* There are a few typefaces that gives you a bit of control over how your text should be decorated: > *bold text* _italic text_ ~~strikeout text~~ `code (no syntax) text` super^script^ sub,,script,, ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.2. Links *vimwiki-syntax-links* Wikilinks~ Link with spaces in it: > [[This is a link]] or: > [[This is a link source|Description of the link]] Links to directories (ending with a "/") are also supported: > [[/home/somebody/|Home Directory]] Use |g:vimwiki_dir_link| to control the behavior when opening directories. Raw URLs~ Raw URLs are also supported: > http://code.google.com/p/vimwiki mailto:habamax@gmail.com ftp://vim.org Anchors~ A URL can be followed by a '#' and the name of an anchor. When opening a link, Vimwiki then jumps to the anchor. > [[Todo List#Tomorrow|Tasks for tomorrow]] To jump inside the current wiki file you can omit the file: > [[#Tomorrow]] See |vimwiki-anchors|. Markdown Links~ These links are only available for Markdown syntax. See http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax#link. Inline link: > [Looks like this](URL) Image link: > ![Looks like this](URL) The URL can be anything recognized by vimwiki as a raw URL. Reference-style links: > a) [Link Name][Id] b) [Id][], using the "implicit link name" shortcut Reference style links must always include *two* consecutive pairs of [-brackets, and field entries can not use "[" or "]". NOTE: (in Vimwiki's current implementation) Reference-style links are a hybrid of Vimwiki's default "Wikilink" and the tradition reference-style link. If the Id is defined elsewhere in the source, as per the Markdown standard: > [Id]: URL then the URL is opened with the system default handler. Otherwise, Vimwiki treats the reference-style link as a Wikilink, interpreting the Id field as a wiki page name. Highlighting of existing links when |vimwiki-option-maxhi| is activated identifies links whose Id field is not defined, either as a reference-link or as a wiki page. To scan the page for new or changed definitions for reference-links, simply re-open the page ":e". Typing wikilinks can be simplified by using Vim's omni completion (see |compl-omni|) like so: > [[ind which opens up a popup menu with all the wiki files starting with "ind". ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.3. Headers *vimwiki-syntax-headers* = Header level 1 =~ By default all headers are highlighted using |hl-Title| highlight group. == Header level 2 ==~ You can set up different colors for each header level: > :hi VimwikiHeader1 guifg=#FF0000 :hi VimwikiHeader2 guifg=#00FF00 :hi VimwikiHeader3 guifg=#0000FF :hi VimwikiHeader4 guifg=#FF00FF :hi VimwikiHeader5 guifg=#00FFFF :hi VimwikiHeader6 guifg=#FFFF00 Set up colors for all 6 header levels or none at all. === Header level 3 ===~ ==== Header level 4 ====~ ===== Header level 5 =====~ ====== Header level 6 ======~ You can center your headers in HTML by placing spaces before the first '=': = Centered Header L1 =~ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.4. Paragraphs *vimwiki-syntax-paragraphs* A paragraph is a group of lines starting in column 1 (no indentation). Paragraphs are separated by a blank line: This is first paragraph with two lines. This is a second paragraph with two lines. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.5. Lists *vimwiki-syntax-lists* Unordered lists: > - Bulleted list item 1 - Bulleted list item 2 or: > * Bulleted list item 1 * Bulleted list item 2 Ordered lists: > 1. Numbered list item 1 2. Numbered list item 2 3. Numbered list item 3 or: > 1) Numbered list item 1 2) Numbered list item 2 3) Numbered list item 3 or: > a) Numbered list item 1 b) Numbered list item 2 c) Numbered list item 3 or: > A) Numbered list item 1 B) Numbered list item 2 C) Numbered list item 3 or: > i) Numbered list item 1 ii) Numbered list item 2 iii) Numbered list item 3 or: > I) Numbered list item 1 II) Numbered list item 2 III) Numbered list item 3 or: > # Bulleted list item 1 ← will be converted to numbers in HTML # Bulleted list item 2 Note that a space after the list item symbols (-, *, 1. etc.) is essential. You can nest and mix the various types: > - Bulleted list item 1 - Bulleted list item 2 a) Numbered list sub item 1 b) more ... * and more ... * ... c) Numbered list sub item 3 1. Numbered list sub sub item 1 2. Numbered list sub sub item 2 d) etc. - Bulleted list item 3 List items can span multiple lines: > * Item 1 Item 1 continued line. Item 1 next continued line. * Item 2 - Sub item 1 Sub item 1 continued line. Sub item 1 next continued line. - Sub item 2 - etc. Continuation of Item 2 Next continuation of Item 2 Definition lists: > Term 1:: Definition 1 Term 2:: :: Definition 2 :: Definition 3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.6. Tables *vimwiki-syntax-tables* Tables are created by entering the content of each cell separated by | delimiters. You can insert other inline wiki syntax in table cells, including typeface formatting and links. For example: > | Year | Temperature (low) | Temperature (high) | |------|-------------------|--------------------| | 1900 | -10 | 25 | | 1910 | -15 | 30 | | 1920 | -10 | 32 | | 1930 | _N/A_ | _N/A_ | | 1940 | -2 | 40 | > In HTML the following part > | Year | Temperature (low) | Temperature (high) | |------|-------------------|--------------------| > is higlighted as a table header. If you indent a table then it will be centered in HTML. If you set > in a cell, the cell spans the left column. If you set \/ in a cell, the cell spans the above row. For example: > | a | b | c | d | | \/ | e | > | f | | \/ | \/ | > | g | | h | > | > | > | > See |vimwiki-tables| for more details on how to manage tables. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.7. Preformatted text *vimwiki-syntax-preformatted* Use {{{ and }}} to define a block of preformatted text: {{{ > Tyger! Tyger! burning bright In the forests of the night, What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? In what distant deeps or skies Burnt the fire of thine eyes? On what wings dare he aspire? What the hand dare sieze the fire? }}} You can add optional information to {{{ tag: > {{{class="brush: python" > def hello(world): for x in range(10): print("Hello {0} number {1}".format(world, x)) }}} Result of HTML export: >
 def hello(world):
     for x in range(10):
         print("Hello {0} number {1}".format(world, x))
 
This might be useful for coloring program code with external js tools such as google's syntax highlighter. You can setup vimwiki to highlight code snippets in preformatted text. See |vimwiki-option-nested_syntaxes| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.8. Mathematical formulae *vimwiki-syntax-math* Mathematical formulae are highlighted, and can be rendered in HTML using the powerful open source display engine MathJax (http://www.mathjax.org/). There are three supported syntaxes, which are inline, block display and block environment. Inline math is for short formulae within text. It is enclosed by single dollar signs, e.g.: $ \sum_i a_i^2 = 1 $ Block display creates a centered formula with some spacing before and after it. It must start with a line including only {{$, then an arbitrary number of mathematical text are allowed, and it must end with a line including only }}$. E.g.: {{$ \sum_i a_i^2 = 1 }}$ Note: no matter how many lines are used in the text file, the HTML will compress it to *one* line only. Block environment is similar to block display, but is able to use specific LaTeX environments, such as 'align'. The syntax is the same as for block display, except for the first line which is {{$%environment%. E.g.: {{$%align% \sum_i a_i^2 &= 1 + 1 \\ &= 2. }}$ Similar compression rules for the HTML page hold (as MathJax interprets the LaTeX code). Note: the highlighting in VIM is automatic. For the rendering in HTML, you have two *alternative* options: 1. using the MathJax server for rendering (needs an internet connection). Add to your HTML template the following line: 2. installing MathJax locally (faster, no internet required). Choose a folder on your hard drive and save MathJax in it. Then add to your HTML template the following line: where is the folder on your HD, as a relative path to the template folder. For instance, a sensible folder structure could be: - wiki - text - html - templates - mathjax In this case, would be "../mathjax" (without quotes). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.9. Blockquotes *vimwiki-syntax-blockquotes* Text started with 4 or more spaces is a blockquote. This would be a blockquote in vimwiki. It is not highlighted in vim but could be styled by CSS in HTML. Blockquotes are usually used to quote a long piece of text from another source. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.10. Comments *vimwiki-syntax-comments* Text line started with %% is a comment. E.g.: > %% this text would not be in HTML < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.11. Horizontal line *vimwiki-syntax-hr* 4 or more dashes at the start of the line is a 'horizontal line' (
): > ---- < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.12. Schemes *vimwiki-syntax-schemes* In addition to standard web schemes (e.g. `http:`, `https:`, `ftp:`, etc.) a number of special schemes are supported: "wiki#:", "local:", "diary:", "file:", and schemeless. While "wiki:#", "diary" and schemeless links are automatically opened in Vi, all other links are opened with the system command. To customize this behavior, see |VimwikiLinkHandler|. Interwiki:~ If you maintain more than one wiki, you can create interwiki links between them by adding a numbered prefix "wiki#:" in front of a link: > [[wiki#:This is a link]] or: > [[wiki#:This is a link source|Description of the link]] The number "#", in the range 0..N-1, identifies the destination wiki in |g:vimwiki_list|. Diary:~ The diary scheme is used to concisely link to diary entries: > [[diary:2012-03-05]] This scheme precludes explicit inclusion of |vimwiki-option-diary_rel_path|, and is most useful on subwiki pages to avoid links such as: > [[../../diary/2012-03-05]] Local:~ A local resource that is not a wiki page may be specified with a path relative to the current page: > [[local:../assets/data.csv|data (CSV)]] When followed or converted to HTML, extensions of local-scheme links are not modified. File:~ The file scheme allows you to directly link to arbitray resources using absolute paths and extensions: > [[file:///home/somebody/a/b/c/music.mp3]] [[file:C:/Users/somebody/d/e/f/music.mp3]] Schemeless:~ Schemeless URLs, which are the default, are treated internally as "wiki#:" URLs in all respects except when converted to Html. Schemeless links convert to plain relative path URLs, nearly verbatim: > relpath/wikipage.html The "wiki#:", "local:", and "diary:" schemes use absolute paths as URLs: > file:///abs_path_to_html#/relpath/wikipage.html When |vimwiki-option-maxhi| equals 1, a distinct highlighting style is used to identify schemeless links whose targets are not found. All other links appear as regular links even if the files to which they refer do not exist. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.13. Transclusions *vimwiki-syntax-transclude* Transclusion (Wiki-Include) Links~ Links that use "{{" and "}}" delimiters signify content that is to be included into the Html output, rather than referenced via hyperlink. Wiki-include URLs may use any of the supported schemes, may be absolute or relative, and need not end with an extension. The primary purpose for wiki-include links is to include images. Transclude from a local URL: > {{local:../../images/vimwiki_logo.png}} or from a universal URL: > {{http://vimwiki.googlecode.com/hg/images/vimwiki_logo.png}} Transclude image with alternate text: > {{http://vimwiki.googlecode.com/hg/images/vimwiki_logo.png|Vimwiki}} in HTML: > Vimwiki Transclude image with alternate text and some style: > {{http://.../vimwiki_logo.png|cool stuff|style="width:150px; height: 120px;"}} in HTML: > cool stuff Transclude image _without_ alternate text and with css class: > {{http://.../vimwiki_logo.png||class="center flow blabla"}} in HTML: > A trial feature allows you to supply your own handler for wiki-include links. See |VimwikiWikiIncludeHandler|. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.14. Thumbnails *vimwiki-syntax-thumbnails* Thumbnail links~ > Thumbnail links are constructed like this: > [[http://someaddr.com/bigpicture.jpg|{{http://someaddr.com/thumbnail.jpg}}]] in HTML: > = My tasks = == Home == - [ ] bathe my dog == Work == - [ ] beg for *pay rise* == Knitting club == === Knitting projects === - [ ] a funny *pig* - [ ] a scary *dog* Then, to jump from your index.wiki directly to your knitting projects, use: > [[Todo#Knitting projects]] Or, to jump to an individual project, use this link: > [[Todo#pig]] If there are multiple instances of an anchor, you can use the long form which consists of the complete header hierarchy, separated by '#': > [[Todo#My tasks#Knitting club#Knitting projects#dog]] If you don't feel like typing the whole stuff, type just [[Todo# and then |i_CTRL-X_CTRL-O| to start the omni completion of anchors. For jumping inside a single file, you can omit the file in the link: > [[#pay rise]] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Table of Contents *vimwiki-toc* *vimwiki-table-of-contents* You can add a 'table of contents' to your wiki file. The commando |:VimwikiTOC| creates the magic header > = Contents = at the top of your file and below it a list of all the headers in the current file as links, so you can directly jump to specific parts of the file. For the indentation of the list, the value of |vimwiki-option-list_margin| is used. If you don't want the TOC to sit in the very first line, e.g. because you have a modeline there, put the magic header in the second or third line and run :VimwikiTOC to update the TOC. If your language is not english, set the option |g:vimwiki_toc_header| to your favorite translation. If you want to keep the TOC up to date automatically, use the option |vimwiki-option-auto_toc|. ============================================================================== 12. Options *vimwiki-options* There are global options and local (per-wiki) options available to tune vimwiki. Global options are configured via global variables. For a complete list of them, see |vimwiki-global-options|. Local options for multiple independent wikis are stored in a single global variable |g:vimwiki_list|. The per-wiki options can be registered in advance, as described in |vimwiki-register-wiki|, or may be registered on the fly as described in |vimwiki-temporary-wiki|. For a list of per-wiki options, see |vimwiki-local-options|. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 12.1 Registered Wiki *g:vimwiki_list* *vimwiki-register-wiki* One or more wikis can be registered using the |g:vimwiki_list| variable. Each item in |g:vimwiki_list| is a |Dictionary| that holds all customizations available for a distinct wiki. The options dictionary has the form: > {'option1': 'value1', 'option2: 'value2', ...} Consider the following: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_site/', 'path_html': '~/public_html/'}] This defines one wiki located at ~/my_site/ that could be htmlized to ~/public_html/ Another example: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_site/', 'path_html': '~/public_html/'}, \ {'path': '~/my_docs/', 'ext': '.mdox'}] defines two wikis: the first as before, and the second one located in ~/my_docs/, with files that have the .mdox extension. An empty |Dictionary| in g:vimwiki_list is the wiki with default options: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{}, \ {'path': '~/my_docs/', 'ext': '.mdox'}] For clarity, in your .vimrc file you can define wiki options using separate |Dictionary| variables and subsequently compose them into |g:vimwiki_list|. > let wiki_1 = {} let wiki_1.path = '~/my_docs/' let wiki_1.html_template = '~/public_html/template.tpl' let wiki_1.nested_syntaxes = {'python': 'python', 'c++': 'cpp'} let wiki_2 = {} let wiki_2.path = '~/project_docs/' let wiki_2.index = 'main' let g:vimwiki_list = [wiki_1, wiki_2] < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 12.2 Temporary Wiki *vimwiki-temporary-wiki* The creation of temporary wikis allows you to open files that would not normally be recognized by vimwiki. If a file with a registered wiki extension (see |vimwiki-register-extension|) is opened in a directory that: 1) is not listed in |g:vimwiki_list|, and 2) is not a subdirectory of any such directory, then a temporary wiki may be created and appended to the list of configured wikis in |g:vimwiki_list|. In addition to vimwiki's editing functionality, the temporary wiki enables: 1) wiki-linking to other files in the same subtree, 2) highlighting of existing wiki pages when |vimwiki-option-maxhi| is activated, and 3) html generation to |vimwiki-option-path_html|. Temporary wikis are configured using default |vimwiki-local-options|, except for the path, extension, and syntax options. The path and extension are set using the file's location and extension. The syntax is set to vimwiki's default unless another syntax is registered via |vimwiki-register-extension|. Use |g:vimwiki_global_ext| to turn off creation of temporary wikis. NOTE: Vimwiki assumes that the locations of distinct wikis do not overlap. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 12.3 Per-Wiki Options *vimwiki-local-options* *vimwiki-option-path* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ path ~/vimwiki/ Description~ Wiki files location: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_site/'}] < *vimwiki-option-path_html* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ path_html '' Description~ Location of HTML files converted from wiki files: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_site/', \ 'path_html': '~/html_site/'}] If path_html is an empty string, the location is derived from |vimwiki-option-path| by adding '_html'; i.e. for: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/okidoki/'}] path_html will be set to '~/okidoki_html/'. *vimwiki-option-auto_export* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value Values~ auto_export 0 0, 1 Description~ Set this option to 1 to automatically generate the HTML file when the corresponding wiki page is saved: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_site/', 'auto_export': 1}] This will keep your HTML files up to date. *vimwiki-option-auto_toc* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value Values~ auto_toc 0 0, 1 Description~ Set this option to 1 to automatically update the table of contents when the current wiki page is saved: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_site/', 'auto_toc': 1}] *vimwiki-option-index* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ index index Description~ Name of wiki index file: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_site/', 'index': 'main'}] NOTE: Do not include the extension. *vimwiki-option-ext* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ ext .wiki Description~ Extension of wiki files: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_site/', \ 'index': 'main', 'ext': '.document'}] < *vimwiki-option-syntax* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value Values~ syntax default default, markdown, or media Description~ Wiki syntax. You can use different markup languages (currently: vimwiki's default, Markdown, and MediaWiki), but only vimwiki's default markup will be converted to HTML at the moment. To use Markdown's wiki markup: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_site/', \ 'syntax': 'markdown', 'ext': '.md'}] < *vimwiki-option-template_path* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ template_path ~/vimwiki/templates/ Description~ Setup path for HTML templates: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_site/', \ 'template_path': '~/public_html/templates/', \ 'template_default': 'def_template', \ 'template_ext': '.html'}] There could be a bunch of templates: > def_template.html index.html bio.html person.html etc. Each template could look like: > %title%
%content%
where %title% is replaced by a wiki page name or by a |vimwiki-title| %root_path% is replaced by a count of ../ for pages buried in subdirs: if you have wikilink [[dir1/dir2/dir3/my page in a subdir]] then %root_path% is replaced by '../../../'. %content% is replaced by a wiki file content. The default template will be applied to all wiki pages unless a page specifies a template. Consider you have wiki page named 'Maxim.wiki' and you want apply 'person.html' template to it. Just add: > %template person to that page. *vimwiki-option-template_default* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ template_default default Description~ Setup default template name (without extension). See |vimwiki-option-template_path| for details. *vimwiki-option-template_ext* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ template_ext .html Description~ Setup template filename extension. See |vimwiki-option-template_path| for details. *vimwiki-option-css_name* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ css_name style.css Description~ Setup CSS file name: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_pages/', \ 'css_name': 'main.css'}] < or even > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_pages/', \ 'css_name': 'css/main.css'}] < *vimwiki-option-maxhi* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value Values~ maxhi 0 0, 1 Description~ Non-existent wiki links highlighting can be quite slow. If you still want it, set maxhi to 1: > let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/my_site/', 'maxhi': 1}] This disables filesystem checks for wiki links. *vimwiki-option-nested_syntaxes* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value Values~ nested_syntaxes {} pairs of highlight keyword and vim filetype Description~ You can configure preformatted text to be highlighted with any syntax available for vim. For example the following setup in your vimrc: > let wiki = {} let wiki.path = '~/my_wiki/' let wiki.nested_syntaxes = {'python': 'python', 'c++': 'cpp'} let g:vimwiki_list = [wiki] would give you Python and C++ highlighting in: > {{{class="brush: python" for i in range(1, 5): print(i) }}} {{{class="brush: c++" #include "helloworld.h" int helloworld() { printf("hello world"); } }}} or in: > {{{c++ #include "helloworld.h" int helloworld() { printf("hello world"); } }}} {{{python for i in range(1, 5): print(i) }}} *vimwiki-option-diary_rel_path* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ diary_rel_path diary/ Description~ Related to |vimwiki-option-path| path for diary wiki-files. *vimwiki-option-diary_index* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ diary_index diary Description~ Name of wiki-file that holds all links to dated wiki-files. *vimwiki-option-diary_header* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ diary_header Diary Description~ Name of the header in |vimwiki-option-diary_index| where links to dated wiki-files are located. *vimwiki-option-diary_sort* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value Values~ diary_sort desc desc, asc Description~ Sort links in a diary index page. *vimwiki-option-custom_wiki2html* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ custom_wiki2html '' Description~ The full path to an user-provided script that converts a wiki page to HTML. Vimwiki calls the provided |vimwiki-option-custom_wiki2html| script from the command-line, using '!' invocation. The following arguments, in this order, are passed to the |vimwiki-option-custom_wiki2html| script: 1. force : [0/1] overwrite an existing file 2. syntax : the syntax chosen for this wiki 3. extension : the file extension for this wiki 4. output_dir : the full path of the output directory, i.e. 'path_html' 5. input_file : the full path of the wiki page 6. css_file : the full path of the css file for this wiki 7. template_path : the full path to the wiki's templates 8. template_default : the default template name 9. template_ext : the extension of template files 10. root_path : a count of ../ for pages buried in subdirs if you have wikilink [[dir1/dir2/dir3/my page in a subdir]] then %root_path% is replaced by '../../../'. Options 7-10 are experimental and may change in the future. If any of these parameters is empty, then a hyphen "-" is passed to the script in its place. For an example and further instructions, refer to the following script: $VIMHOME/autoload/vimwiki/customwiki2html.sh An alternative converter was developed by Jason6Anderson, and can be located at http://code.google.com/p/vimwiki/issues/detail?id=384 To use the internal wiki2html converter, use an empty string (the default). *vimwiki-option-list_margin* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key Default value~ list_margin -1 Description~ Width of left-hand margin for lists. When negative, the current |shiftwidth| is used. This affects the appearance of the generated links (see |:VimwikiGenerateLinks|), the Table of contents (|vimwiki-toc|) and the behavior of the list manipulation commands |:VimwikiListChangeLevel| and the local mappings |vimwiki_glstar|, |vimwiki_gl#| |vimwiki_gl-|, |vimwiki_gl-|, |vimwiki_gl1|, |vimwiki_gla|, |vimwiki_glA|, |vimwiki_gli|, |vimwiki_glI| and |vimwiki_i__|. Note: if you use MediaWiki syntax, you probably would like to set this option to 0, because every indented line is considered verbatim text. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 12.4 Global Options *vimwiki-global-options* Global options are configured using the following pattern: > let g:option_name = option_value ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_hl_headers* Highlight headers with =Reddish=, ==Greenish==, ===Blueish=== colors. Value Description~ 1 Use VimwikiHeader1-VimwikiHeader6 group colors to highlight different header levels. 0 Use |hl-Title| color for headers. Default: 0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_hl_cb_checked* Checked list items can be highlighted with a color: * [X] the whole line can be highlighted with the option set to 1. * this line is highlighted as well with the option set to 2 * [ ] I wish vim could use strikethru. Value Description~ 0 Don't highlight anything. 1 Highlight checked [X] list item with |group-name| "Comment". 2 Highlight checked [X] list item and all its child items. Default: 0 Note: Option 2 does not work perfectly. Specifically, it might break on preformatted text or if you mix tabs and spaces for indenting, and indented headers can be highlighted erroneously. Furthermore, if your list is long, Vim's highlight can break. To solve this, consider putting > au BufEnter *.wiki :syntax sync fromstart in your .vimrc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_global_ext* Control the creation of |vimwiki-temporary-wiki|s. If a file with a registered extension (see |vimwiki-register-extension|) is opened in a directory that is: 1) not listed in |g:vimwiki_list|, and 2) not a subdirectory of any such directory, then: Value Description~ 1 make temporary wiki and append it to |g:vimwiki_list|. 0 don't make temporary wiki in that dir. If your preferred wiki extension is .txt then you can > let g:vimwiki_global_ext = 0 to restrict vimwiki's operation to only those paths listed in g:vimwiki_list. Other text files wouldn't be treated as wiki pages. Default: 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_ext2syntax* *vimwiki-register-extension* A many-to-one map between file extensions and syntaxes whose purpose is to register the extensions with vimwiki. E.g.: > let g:vimwiki_ext2syntax = {'.md': 'markdown', \ '.mkd': 'markdown', \ '.wiki': 'media'} An extension that is registered with vimwiki can trigger creation of a |vimwiki-temporary-wiki| with the associated syntax. File extensions used in |g:vimwiki_list| are automatically registered with vimwiki using the default syntax. Default: {} ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_menu* GUI menu of available wikies to select. Value Description~ '' No menu 'Vimwiki' Top level menu "Vimwiki" 'Plugin.Vimwiki' "Vimwiki" submenu of top level menu "Plugin" etc. Default: 'Vimwiki' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_listsyms* String of 5 symbols for list items with checkboxes. Default value is ' .oOX'. The first char is for 0% done items. The fifth is for 100% done items. You can set it to some more fancy symbols like this: > let g:vimwiki_listsyms = '✗○◐●✓' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_use_mouse* Use local mouse mappings from |vimwiki-local-mappings|. Value Description~ 0 Do not use mouse mappings. 1 Use mouse mappings. Default: 0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_folding* Enable/disable vimwiki's folding (outline) functionality. Folding in vimwiki can uses either the 'expr' or the 'syntax' |foldmethod| of Vim. Value Description~ '' Disable folding. 'expr' Folding based on expression (folds sections and code blocks). 'syntax' Folding based on syntax (folds sections; slower than 'expr'). 'list' Folding based on expression (folds list subitems; much slower). Default: '' Limitations: - Opening very large files may be slow when folding is enabled. - 'list' folding is particularly slow with larger files. - 'list' is intended to work with lists nicely indented with 'shiftwidth'. - 'syntax' is only available for the default syntax so far. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_list_ignore_newline* This is HTML related. Convert newlines to
s in multiline list items. Value Description~ 0 Newlines in a list item are converted to
s. 1 Ignore newlines. Default: 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_use_calendar* Create new or open existing diary wiki-file for the date selected in Calendar. See |vimwiki-calendar|. Value Description~ 0 Do not use calendar. 1 Use calendar. Default: 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *VimwikiLinkHandler* A customizable link handler, |VimwikiLinkHandler|, can be defined to override Vimwiki's opening of links. Each recognized link, whether it is a wikilink, wiki-include link or a weblink, is first passed to |VimwikiLinkHandler| to see if it can be handled. The return value 1/0 indicates success. If the link is not handled successfully, the behavior of Vimwiki depends on the scheme. Wiki:, diary: or schemeless links are opened in Vim. All others, including local: and file: schemes, are opened with a system default handler; i.e. Linux (!xdg-open), Mac (!open), and Windows (!start). You can redefine |VimwikiLinkHandler| function to do something else: > function! VimwikiLinkHandler(link) try let browser = 'C:\Program Files\Firefox\firefox.exe' execute '!start "'.browser.'" ' . a:link return 1 catch echo "This can happen for a variety of reasons ..." endtry return 0 endfunction A second example handles two new schemes, 'vlocal:' and 'vfile:', which behave similar to 'local:' and 'file:' schemes, but are always opened with Vim: > function! VimwikiLinkHandler(link) "{{{ Use Vim to open links with the " 'vlocal:' or 'vfile:' schemes. E.g.: " 1) [[vfile:///~/Code/PythonProject/abc123.py]], and " 2) [[vlocal:./|Wiki Home]] let link = a:link if link =~ "vlocal:" || link =~ "vfile:" let link = link[1:] else return 0 endif let [idx, scheme, path, subdir, lnk, ext, url, anchor] = \ vimwiki#base#resolve_scheme(link, 0) if g:vimwiki_debug echom 'LinkHandler: idx='.idx.', scheme=[v]'.scheme.', path='.path. \ ', subdir='.subdir.', lnk='.lnk.', ext='.ext.', url='.url. \ ', anchor='.anchor endif if url == '' && anchor == '' echom 'Vimwiki Error: Unable to resolve link!' return 0 else call vimwiki#base#edit_file('tabnew', url, anchor, [], 0) return 1 endif endfunction " }}} ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *VimwikiWikiIncludeHandler* Vimwiki includes the contents of a wiki-include URL as an image by default. A trial feature allows you to supply your own handler for wiki-include links. The handler should return the empty string when it does not recognize or cannot otherwise convert the link. A customized handler might look like this: > " Convert {{URL|#|ID}} -> URL#ID function! VimwikiWikiIncludeHandler(value) "{{{ let str = a:value " complete URL let url_0 = matchstr(str, g:vimwiki_rxWikiInclMatchUrl) " URL parts let [scheme, path, subdir, lnk, ext, url, anchor] = \ vimwiki#base#resolve_scheme(url_0, VimwikiGet('ext')) let arg1 = matchstr(str, VimwikiWikiInclMatchArg(1)) let arg2 = matchstr(str, VimwikiWikiInclMatchArg(2)) if arg1 =~ '#' return url.'#'.arg2 endif " Return the empty string when unable to process link return '' endfunction "}}} < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_table_mappings* Enable/disable table mappings for INSERT mode. Value Description~ 0 Disable table mappings. 1 Enable table mappings. Default: 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_table_auto_fmt* Enable/disable table auto formatting after leaving INSERT mode. Value Description~ 0 Disable table auto formatting. 1 Enable table auto formatting. Default: 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_w32_dir_enc* Convert directory name from current |encoding| into 'g:vimwiki_w32_dir_enc' before it is created. If you have 'enc=utf-8' and set up > let g:vimwiki_w32_dir_enc = 'cp1251' < then following the next link with : > [[привет/мир]] > would convert utf-8 'привет' to cp1251 and create directory with that name. Default: '' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_CJK_length* Use special method to calculate correct length of the strings with double-wide characters (to align table cells properly). Value Description~ 0 Do not use it. 1 Use it. Default: 0 Note: Vim 7.3 has a new function |strdisplaywidth|, so for users of an up to date Vim, this option is obsolete. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_dir_link* This option is about what to do with links to directories -- [[directory/]], [[papers/]], etc. Value Description~ '' Open 'directory/' using standard netrw plugin. 'index' Open 'directory/index.wiki', create if needed. 'main' Open 'directory/main.wiki', create if needed. etc. Default: '' (empty string) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_html_header_numbering* Set this option if you want headers to be auto-numbered in HTML. E.g.: > 1 Header1 1.1 Header2 1.2 Header2 1.2.1 Header3 1.2.2 Header3 1.3 Header2 2 Header1 3 Header1 etc. Value Description~ 0 Header numbering is off. 1 Header numbering is on. Headers are numbered starting from header level 1. 2 Header numbering is on. Headers are numbered starting from header level 2. etc. Example when g:vimwiki_html_header_numbering = 2: > Header1 1 Header2 2 Header2 2.1 Header3 2.1.1 Header4 2.1.2 Header4 2.2 Header3 3 Header2 4 Header2 etc. Default: 0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_html_header_numbering_sym* Ending symbol for |g:vimwiki_html_header_numbering|. Value Description~ '.' Dot will be added after a header's number. ')' Closing bracket will be added after a header's number. etc. With let g:vimwiki_html_header_numbering_sym = '.' headers would look like: > 1. Header1 1.1. Header2 1.2. Header2 1.2.1. Header3 1.2.2. Header3 1.3. Header2 2. Header1 3. Header1 Default: '' (empty) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_valid_html_tags* Case-insensitive comma separated list of HTML tags that can be used in vimwiki. Default: 'b,i,s,u,sub,sup,kbd,br,hr' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_user_htmls* Comma-separated list of HTML files that have no corresponding wiki files and should not be deleted after |:VimwikiAll2HTML|. Default: '' Example: Consider you have 404.html and search.html in your vimwiki 'path_html'. With: > let g:vimwiki_user_htmls = '404.html,search.html' they would not be deleted after |:VimwikiAll2HTML|. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_conceallevel* In vim73 |conceallevel| is local to window, thus if you open vimwiki buffer in a new tab or window, it would be set to default value. Vimwiki sets |conceallevel| to g:vimwiki_conceallevel everytime vimwiki buffer is entered. With default settings, Vimwiki conceals one-character markers, shortens long URLs and hides markers and URL for links that have a description. Default: 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_autowriteall* In vim |autowriteall| is a global setting. With g:vimwiki_autowriteall vimwiki makes it local to its buffers. Value Description~ 0 autowriteall is off 1 autowriteall is on Default: 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_url_maxsave* Setting the value of |g:vimwiki_url_maxsave| to 0 will prevent any link shortening: you will see the full URL in all types of links, with no parts being concealed. Concealing of one-character markers is not affected. When positive, the value determines the maximum number of characters that are retained at the end after concealing the middle part of a long URL. It could be less: in case one of the characters /,#,? is found near the end, the URL will be concealed up to the last occurrence of that character. Note: * The conceal feature works only with Vim >= 7.3. * When using the default |wrap| option of Vim, the effect of concealed links is not always pleasing, because the visible text on longer lines with a lot of concealed parts may appear to be strangely broken across several lines. This is a limitation of Vim's |conceal| feature. * Many color schemes do not define an unobtrusive color for the Conceal highlight group - this might be quite noticeable on shortened URLs. Default: 15 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_debug* Controls verbosity of debugging output, for example, the diagnostic information about HTML conversion. Value Description~ 0 Do not show debug messages. 1 Show debug messages. Default: 0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *g:vimwiki_diary_months* It is a |Dictionary| with the numbers of months and corresponding names.
