Pythonhelper

This was a mirror of http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=435.

This Vim plugin helps in Python development by placing a name of current class, method or function under the cursor on the status line in normal and insert mode.

Installation

To use this plugin either +python or +python3 feature compiled in vim is required. To check it, issue :version in vim instance and look for python entries.

To install it, any kind of Vim package manager can be used, like NeoBundle, Pathogen, Vundle or vim-plug.

For manual installation, copy subdirectories from this repository to your ~/.vim directory.

Next, place one of the available functions either on your .vimrc:

set statusline=[....]\ %{TagInStatusLine()}\ [.....]

or under ~/.vim/ftplugin/python/your_file.vim:

setlocal statusline=[....]\ %{TagInStatusLine()}\ [.....]

Functions, which may be placed on the status line are as follows:

• TagInStatusLine - shows name and type of the tag, i.e.:

  ClassName.some_method_name (method)
  

• TagInStatusLineTag - shows only the name:

  ClassName.some_method_name
  

• TagInStatusLineType - shows only the tag type:

  method
  

Restart vim, and you all set.
