Binding to close current node

[levouh]

Say that I am in a node like this:

Being able to press a key and change the tree to this:

(so close the node that the cursor is currently inside of) would be a nice feature to have, similar to how nvim-tree.lua has close_node.

Interesting. That is easy enough to add.

@levouh Question: If a directory is currently focused, should it collapse that currently focused directory, or it's parent?

In your example, what happens when you execute close_node in the pack directory in your second screenshot?

[levouh]

Apologies for the delay; it would close the focused node if it was open, otherwise close the parent of the current node.

@cseickel thanks for the addition!

Messing with what you pushed on main and is works great, however I sometimes run into this issue where closing a node changes the directory of the window and goes to the wrong parent:

close_node_dir_change.mp4

Note that the starting directory (and the one that contains the file) is ~/dots, then after closing a node within ~/dots my directory (both global and tab-local) is changed to ~/

I can open a new issue for this if you'd like, poking around with the code base as well so hopefully I'll be able to contribute at some point as well.

I just opened up a bug that I think is the real cause of this issue: #22
Basically, it is not using your custom mappings, and backspace is still running the default command of navigating up. Upper case C should give you the behavior you are looking for right now.

@levouh Actually, I already figured it out! change your mapping to lower case. My default config merging is case sensitive.

<bs> instead of <BS>

I'll fix that of course, but this will get you working immediately.

Awesome, I will give it a try. Thanks for the notes.
