Dear Maintainer,
calling `:Vimplate <TAB>` (in vim after `:plugadd! vimplate`) caused the
following error message:
:Vimplate Use of uninitialized value in opendir at /usr/bin/vimplate line 216.
The problem seems to occur because the `vimplate -listtemplate` command /
option fails:
❯ vimplate -listtemplates
Use of uninitialized value in opendir at /usr/bin/vimplate line 216.
readdir() attempted on invalid dirhandle DIR at /usr/bin/vimplate line 218.
❯ vimplate -listtemplates -d .
Use of uninitialized value in opendir at /usr/bin/vimplate line 216.
readdir() attempted on invalid dirhandle DIR at /usr/bin/vimplate line 218.
I expected the template files (*.tt) files to be listed of the current
/ given directory.
I then created a .vimplaterc file with `vimplate -createconfig` and adjusted
$Config:opt:dir option:
$Config::opt = {
dir => '/home/jkirk/.vim/vimplate-templates',
[...]
},
Vimplate then listed the template files nicely:
❯ vimplate -listtemplates
ansible-role
network-definition
ddj
new-kopano-user
journal
doc-review
helios-update
The man page vimplate(1) + /usr/share/doc/vim-scripts/README.Debian do not
mention the need of the .vimplaterc.
(I only then found the "Installation" section in
/usr/share/doc/vim-scripts/html/vimplate.html).
So there are two issues:
* I am not sure where I should have started reading the documentation
but maybe we could improve the documentation somehow?
* Vimplate does not list templates with the `-d` option without a .vimplaterc
file
As a side note:
# This is an example configuration.
# please see: http://napali.ch/vimplate
http://napali.ch/vimplate does not exist anymore.
Thanks for maintaining vim-scripts!
Best,
- Darsha
