Searching all visible files

[choskeli]

Is there a way to search all visible files? When I make dotfiles visible the '/' key still doesn't include them in searches.

Please modify find_args config to your liking.

neo-tree.nvim/lua/neo-tree/defaults.lua

Line 491 in 6604275

--find_command = "fd", -- this is determined automatically, you probably don't need to set it

Unfortunately the state of neo-tree (whether hidden is shown or not) is not correlated to the search result. (However that's quite interesting and would be worth a feature request IMO).

Hmm I must be misunderstanding. Is this how it would look for lazyvim? It isn't working for me.

return {
  "nvim-neo-tree/neo-tree.nvim",
  opts = {
    filesystem = {
      filtered_items = {
        visible = true,
      },
    },
    find_args = function(cmd, path, search_term, args)
      table.insert(args, "--hidden")
      table.insert(args, "--exclude")
      table.insert(args, ".git")
      return args
    end,
  },
}

EDIT: I've submitted #1432

You will want to specify the find_cmd (my bad I forgot the actual option name) or your search method may not understand the args.

Those args in the example are for fd which is an alternative to the Linux find command written in rust. If you only have find command installed the option would be different and please read man find.
