Installing plugins

Download the getplugs plugin and execute it anywhere to get all the plugins installed to ~/.config/nnn/plugins. You can run it again later to update the plugins.

NOTE: getplugs also downloads the launcher nlaunch and tries to place it at /usr/local/bin/ using sudo. If it fails you have to place nlauch manually somewhere in your $PATH.

File access from plugins

Plugins can access:

  • all files in the directory (nnn switches to the dir where the plugin is to be run so the dir is $PWD for the plugin)
  • the current file under the cursor (the file name is passed as the argument to a plugin)
  • the current selection (by reading the file ~/.config/nnn/.selection, see the plugin ndiff)

Each script has a Description section which provides more details on what the script does, if applicable.

Contributing plugins

Plugins are scripts and all scripting languages should work. However, POSIX-compliant shell scripts runnable in sh are preferred. If that's too rudimentary for your use case, use Python, Perl or Ruby. Please keep non-portable commands (like notify-send) commented so users from any other OS/DE aren't surprised.

The plugins should be executable. Please add an entry in the table above.
