feat(fff-nvim): support user-defined picker input mappings - #814
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe PR adds typed, mode-specific picker-input mappings to ChangesPicker input mappings
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The new user-defined picker mappings can pass an unsupported mode to Neovim, causing picker creation to abort instead of safely rejecting the entry. This is a bounded configuration-time correctness risk, so the PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up validation. Suggested reviewers: Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

465-471: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winAdd a regression test for both prompt positions.
Test that a user mapping overrides a built-in mapping with
prompt_position = 'bottom'andprompt_position = 'top'. Open the picker through the Neovim fixture at~/dev/lightsource.As per coding guidelines, UI changes must be tested for both prompt positions.

Validate user mappings before iterating.
mappings = { i = false } makes pairs() fail. A non-string, non-function RHS makes vim.keymap.set() fail when the picker opens. Validate the mode tables, lhs values, and rhs values in the public setup path with vim.validate().
As per coding guidelines, use vim.validate() for user inputs in public Lua functions.

Neovim vim.keymap.set invalid mode accepted error supported modes documentation
💡 Result:
In Neovim, vim.keymap.set accepts the same mode "short-name" strings as vim.api.nvim_set_keymap [1][2]. If you encounter an error regarding an invalid mode, it is typically because the string provided does not match the valid single-character identifiers or their recognized combinations [2][3]. The supported mode short-names are [2][4][3]: - n: Normal mode - i: Insert mode - v: Visual mode (includes Select mode) - x: Visual mode (Visual-only) - s: Select mode - o: Operator-pending mode - c: Command-line mode - t: Terminal mode -!: Insert and Command-line mode (equivalent to:map!) You can pass a single mode string (e.g., 'n') or a list/table of multiple modes (e.g., {'n', 'v'}) to define a mapping for several modes at once [1][2][5]. Note that vim.keymap.set does not support the empty string ('') to represent "all modes" (nvo) in the same way the legacy :map command does [6]. If you need to map across multiple modes, explicitly provide the list of modes in a table [2][5]. If you are receiving a validation error, ensure: 1. You are passing a string or a table of strings [1]. 2. You are not using deprecated or unsupported shorthand abbreviations that might be interpreted as invalid mode characters [1][3]. 3. For abbreviations (like 'ia', 'ca', or '!a'), refer to :help nvim_set_keymap to confirm the specific support for your Neovim version, as these are distinct from standard key mappings [4][3]. For comprehensive information on mapping modes, you can consult Neovim's built-in help by running :help map-modes or :help nvim_set_keymap within your Neovim instance [4][3].

Reject unsupported mapping modes.
sanitize_mappings accepts any string mode, and set_keymap passes it directly to vim.keymap.set. Invalid modes such as bogus abort picker creation. Restrict modes to those supported by Neovim.

Upstream (9 commits): nvim telescope-style input mappings (dmtrKovalenko#814), clear_query action (dmtrKovalenko#812), FFFOpen/FFFClose autocmds (dmtrKovalenko#813), prompt cursor fix (dmtrKovalenko#810); pi-fff mute $HOME scan warning (dmtrKovalenko#806); fff-core clippy 1.98 (dmtrKovalenko#808); README sponsors + vimdoc regen. Clean auto-merge, no conflicts; only a 3-line behavior-neutral clippy fix touches Rust.
Closes #78 — adds a telescope-style
mappings = { i = { ... }, n = { ... } }config applied to the picker input buffer after the built-in keymaps, so arbitrary user callbacks can be bound and can override defaults.Summary by CodeRabbit
