Vimfiles

Vi Improved customization files.

Introduction

This vim customization collection was created primarily to support development for PHP and Drupal powered web-sites. It contains extensions and customizations to help with editing and viewing files associated with:

1. Apache configuration and logs
2. PHP code
3. Drupal
4. JavaScript, including jQuery and nodejs
5. Varnish configurations
6. Puppet
7. Vagrant
8. Markdown documents
9. ssh client configuration
10. tmux with vim configuration
11. git, including merge conflict resolution

Requirements

To use these customizations for vim, you need to have vim installed.

I currently use, test and update this collection of vimfiles with vim v7.4, but they should work fine with any vim install >= v7.2.

Installation

To get up and running, install Vim to the usual location, then:

• To install for the current user only:

  # Backup any existing Vim files folder.
  [[ -d ~/.vim ]] && mv ~/.vim ~/.vim.original
  # Clone this project locally.
  git clone --recursive https://github.com/christopher-hopper/vimfiles.git ~/.vim
  # Backup any existing Vim Runtime Configuration.
  [[ -f ~/.vimrc ]] && mv ~/.vimrc ~/.vimrc.orig~
  # Link to the new Vim Runtime Configuration.
  ln -s ~/.vim/vimrc.local ~/.vimrc

• To install for all users:

  # Backup any existing Vim files folder.
  [[ -d /usr/share/vim/vimfiles ]] && \
    sudo mv /usr/share/vim/vimfiles /usr/share/vim/vimfiles.original
  # Clone this project locally.
  sudo git clone --recursive https://github.com/christopher-hopper/vimfiles.git \
    /usr/share/vim/vimfiles
  # Backup any existing Vim Runtime Configuration.
  [[ -f /etc/vim/vimrc ]] && sudo mv /etc/vim/vimrc /etc/vimrc.original
  # Link to the new Vim Runtime Configuration.
  sudo ln -s /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/vimrc.local /etc/vim/vimrc
