About

Vundle is a short cut for Vimbundle and is a Vim plugin manager.

Quick start

  1. Setup Vundle:

     git clone http://github.com/gmarik/vundle.git ~/.vim/vundle.git
    
  2. Configure bundles:

    Append to your ~/.vimrc:

     set rtp+=~/.vim/vundle.git/ 
     call vundle#rc()
    
     " Bundles:
     Bundle "L9"
     Bundle "FuzzyFinder"
     Bundle "rails.vim"
     Bundle "ack.vim"
     Bundle "git://git.wincent.com/command-t.git"
     " ...
    
  3. Install configured bundles:

    Launch vim, run :BundleInstall (no Vim restart required since v0.5)

    Installing requires Git and triggers Git clone for each configured repo to ~/.vim/bundle/.

Why Vundle

Vundle allows to:

  • keep track and configure your scripts right in .vimrc
  • install configured scripts (aka bundle)
  • update configured scripts
  • search all available vim scripts by name
  • clean unused scripts up

Also as a bonus Vundle:

  • manages runtime path of your installed scripts
  • regenerates helptag atomatically

Docs

see :h vundle vimdoc for more details.

Examples

See gmarik's vimrc for working example.

Inspiration and ideas from

Also

  • Vundle was developed and tested in Vim 7.3 on OSX and Linux
  • Vundle wasn't tested on windows(so if you care i'm waiting for your pull request)
  • Vundle tries to be as KISS as possible

TODO:

Vundle is a work in progress so any ideas/patches appreciated

  • √ activate newly added bundles on .vimrc reload or after :BundleInstall
  • √ use preview window for search results
  • √ vim documentation
  • improve error handling
  • allow specify revision/version?
  • search by description aswell
  • show descrption in search results
  • instead sourcing .vimrc before installation come up with another solution
  • tests
  • make it rock!
