31 *:python* *:py* *E263* *E264* *E887* |
7 | 32 :[range]py[thon] {stmt} |
3750 | 33 Execute Python statement {stmt}. A simple check if |
34 the `:python` command is working: > | |
35 :python print "Hello" | |
7 | 36 |
17571 | 37 :[range]py[thon] << [endmarker] |
7 | 38 {script} |
39 {endmarker} | |
40 Execute Python script {script}. | |
41 Note: This command doesn't work when the Python | |
42 feature wasn't compiled in. To avoid errors, see | |
43 |script-here|. | |
44 | |
17571 | 45 The {endmarker} below the {script} must NOT be preceded by any white space. |
46 | |
47 If [endmarker] is omitted from after the "<<", a dot '.' must be used after | |
48 {script}, like for the |:append| and |:insert| commands. | |
49 | |
7 | 50 This form of the |:python| command is mainly useful for including python code |
51 in Vim scripts. | |
52 | |
53 Example: > | |
54 function! IcecreamInitialize() | |
55 python << EOF | |
56 class StrawberryIcecream: | |
57 def __call__(self): | |
58 print 'EAT ME' | |

68 and "EOF" do not have any indent. | |
7 | 69 |
4435 | 70 *:pydo* |
71 :[range]pydo {body} Execute Python function "def _vim_pydo(line, linenr): | |
72 {body}" for each line in the [range], with the | |
73 function arguments being set to the text of each line | |
74 in turn, without a trailing <EOL>, and the current | |
75 line number. The function should return a string or | |
76 None. If a string is returned, it becomes the text of | |
77 the line in the current turn. The default for [range] | |
78 is the whole file: "1,$". | |
79 | |
80 Examples: | |
81 > | |
82 :pydo return "%s\t%d" % (line[::-1], len(line)) | |
83 :pydo if line: return "%4d: %s" % (linenr, line) | |
84 < | |
14668 | 85 One can use `:pydo` in possible conjunction with `:py` to filter a range using |
86 python. For example: > | |
87 | |
88 :py3 << EOF | |
89 needle = vim.eval('@a') | |
90 replacement = vim.eval('@b') | |

100 argument is used as a single file name. |
7 | 101 |
102 Both of these commands do essentially the same thing - they execute a piece of | |
103 Python code, with the "current range" |python-range| set to the given line | |
104 range. | |
105 | |
106 In the case of :python, the code to execute is in the command-line. | |
107 In the case of :pyfile, the code to execute is the contents of the given file. | |
108 | |
109 Python commands cannot be used in the |sandbox|. | |
110 | |
111 To pass arguments you need to set sys.argv[] explicitly. Example: > | |
112 | |
113 :python sys.argv = ["foo", "bar"] | |
114 :pyfile myscript.py | |
115 | |
116 Here are some examples *python-examples* > | |
117 | |
118 :python from vim import * | |
119 :python from string import upper | |
120 :python current.line = upper(current.line) | |
121 :python print "Hello" | |
122 :python str = current.buffer[42] | |
123 | |
124 (Note that changes - like the imports - persist from one command to the next, | |
125 just like in the Python interpreter.) | |

128 2. The vim module *python-vim* | |
129 | |
130 Python code gets all of its access to vim (with one exception - see | |
236 | 131 |python-output| below) via the "vim" module. The vim module implements two |
7 | 132 methods, three constants, and one error object. You need to import the vim |
133 module before using it: > | |
134 :python import vim | |

156 Methods of the "vim" module | |
157 | |
158 vim.command(str) *python-command* | |
236 | 159 Executes the vim (ex-mode) command str. Returns None. |
7 | 160 Examples: > |
20 | 161 :py vim.command("set tw=72") |
162 :py vim.command("%s/aaa/bbb/g") | |
7 | 163 < The following definition executes Normal mode commands: > |
164 def normal(str): | |
165 vim.command("normal "+str) | |
166 # Note the use of single quotes to delimit a string containing | |
167 # double quotes | |
168 normal('"a2dd"aP') | |
169 < *E659* | |
170 The ":python" command cannot be used recursively with Python 2.2 and | |
171 older. This only works with Python 2.3 and later: > | |
20 | 172 :py vim.command("python print 'Hello again Python'") |
7 | 173 |
174 vim.eval(str) *python-eval* | |
175 Evaluates the expression str using the vim internal expression | |
633 | 176 evaluator (see |expression|). Returns the expression result as: |
177 - a string if the Vim expression evaluates to a string or number | |
178 - a list if the Vim expression evaluates to a Vim list | |
856 | 179 - a dictionary if the Vim expression evaluates to a Vim dictionary |
633 | 180 Dictionaries and lists are recursively expanded. |
7 | 181 Examples: > |
14637 | 182 :" value of the 'textwidth' option |
20 | 183 :py text_width = vim.eval("&tw") |
14637 | 184 : |
185 :" contents of the 'a' register | |
18831 | 186 :py a_reg = vim.eval("@a") |
14637 | 187 : |
188 :" Result is a string! Use string.atoi() to convert to a number. | |
189 :py str = vim.eval("12+12") | |
190 : | |
856 | 191 :py tagList = vim.eval('taglist("eval_expr")') |
633 | 192 < The latter will return a python list of python dicts, for instance: |
11062 | 193 [{'cmd': '/^eval_expr(arg, nextcmd)$/', 'static': 0, 'name': ~ |
194 'eval_expr', 'kind': 'f', 'filename': './src/eval.c'}] ~ | |
633 | 195 |
3682 | 196 vim.bindeval(str) *python-bindeval* |

7 | 218 Error object of the "vim" module |
219 | |
220 vim.error *python-error* | |
221 Upon encountering a Vim error, Python raises an exception of type | |
222 vim.error. | |
223 Example: > | |
224 try: | |
225 vim.command("put a") | |
226 except vim.error: | |
227 # nothing in register a | |
228 | |
229 Constants of the "vim" module | |
230 | |
231 Note that these are not actually constants - you could reassign them. | |
232 But this is silly, as you would then lose access to the vim objects | |
233 to which the variables referred. | |
234 | |
235 vim.buffers *python-buffers* | |
4393 | 236 A mapping object providing access to the list of vim buffers. The |
7 | 237 object supports the following operations: > |
20 | 238 :py b = vim.buffers[i] # Indexing (read-only) |
239 :py b in vim.buffers # Membership test | |
240 :py n = len(vim.buffers) # Number of elements | |
4397 | 241 :py for b in vim.buffers: # Iterating over buffer list |
7 | 242 < |
243 vim.windows *python-windows* | |
236 | 244 A sequence object providing access to the list of vim windows. The |
7 | 245 object supports the following operations: > |
20 | 246 :py w = vim.windows[i] # Indexing (read-only) |
247 :py w in vim.windows # Membership test | |
248 :py n = len(vim.windows) # Number of elements | |
249 :py for w in vim.windows: # Sequential access | |
18831 | 250 < Note: vim.windows object always accesses current tab page. |
251 |python-tabpage|.windows objects are bound to parent |python-tabpage| | |
252 object and always use windows from that tab page (or throw vim.error | |
253 in case tab page was deleted). You can keep a reference to both | |
254 without keeping a reference to vim module object or |python-tabpage|, | |

255 they will not lose their properties in this case. |
4401 | 256 |
257 vim.tabpages *python-tabpages* | |
18831 | 258 A sequence object providing access to the list of vim tab pages. The |
4401 | 259 object supports the following operations: > |
260 :py t = vim.tabpages[i] # Indexing (read-only) | |
261 :py t in vim.tabpages # Membership test | |
262 :py n = len(vim.tabpages) # Number of elements | |
263 :py for t in vim.tabpages: # Sequential access | |
7 | 264 < |
265 vim.current *python-current* | |
266 An object providing access (via specific attributes) to various | |
267 "current" objects available in vim: | |
268 vim.current.line The current line (RW) String | |
4407 | 269 vim.current.buffer The current buffer (RW) Buffer |
270 vim.current.window The current window (RW) Window | |
271 vim.current.tabpage The current tab page (RW) TabPage | |
7 | 272 vim.current.range The current line range (RO) Range |
273 | |
236 | 274 The last case deserves a little explanation. When the :python or |
7 | 275 :pyfile command specifies a range, this range of lines becomes the |
236 | 276 "current range". A range is a bit like a buffer, but with all access |
277 restricted to a subset of lines. See |python-range| for more details. | |
7 | 278 |
18831 | 279 Note: When assigning to vim.current.{buffer,window,tabpage} it expects |
280 valid |python-buffer|, |python-window| or |python-tabpage| objects | |
281 respectively. Assigning triggers normal (with |autocommand|s) | |
282 switching to given buffer, window or tab page. It is the only way to | |
283 switch UI objects in python: you can't assign to | |
284 |python-tabpage|.window attribute. To switch without triggering | |
4407 | 285 autocommands use > |
286 py << EOF | |
287 saved_eventignore = vim.options['eventignore'] | |
288 vim.options['eventignore'] = 'all' | |
289 try: | |
290 vim.current.buffer = vim.buffers[2] # Switch to buffer 2 | |
291 finally: | |
292 vim.options['eventignore'] = saved_eventignore | |
293 EOF | |
294 < | |
4323 | 295 vim.vars *python-vars* |
296 vim.vvars *python-vvars* | |
18831 | 297 Dictionary-like objects holding dictionaries with global (|g:|) and |
298 vim (|v:|) variables respectively. Identical to `vim.bindeval("g:")`, | |
4323 | 299 but faster. |
7 | 300 |
4350 | 301 vim.options *python-options* |
18831 | 302 Object partly supporting mapping protocol (supports setting and |
4350 | 303 getting items) providing a read-write access to global options. |
304 Note: unlike |:set| this provides access only to global options. You | |
305 cannot use this object to obtain or set local options' values or | |
306 access local-only options in any fashion. Raises KeyError if no global | |
307 option with such name exists (i.e. does not raise KeyError for | |
308 |global-local| options and global only options, but does for window- | |
309 and buffer-local ones). Use |python-buffer| objects to access to | |
310 buffer-local options and |python-window| objects to access to | |
311 window-local options. | |
312 | |
18831 | 313 Type of this object is available via "Options" attribute of vim |
4496 | 314 module. |
315 | |
7 | 316 Output from Python *python-output* |
317 Vim displays all Python code output in the Vim message area. Normal | |
318 output appears as information messages, and error output appears as | |
319 error messages. | |
320 | |
321 In implementation terms, this means that all output to sys.stdout | |
322 (including the output from print statements) appears as information | |
323 messages, and all output to sys.stderr (including error tracebacks) | |
324 appears as error messages. | |

414 3. Buffer objects *python-buffer* | |
415 | |
236 | 416 Buffer objects represent vim buffers. You can obtain them in a number of ways: |
7 | 417 - via vim.current.buffer (|python-current|) |
418 - from indexing vim.buffers (|python-buffers|) | |
419 - from the "buffer" attribute of a window (|python-window|) | |
420 | |
3312 | 421 Buffer objects have two read-only attributes - name - the full file name for |
422 the buffer, and number - the buffer number. They also have three methods | |
423 (append, mark, and range; see below). | |
7 | 424 |
236 | 425 You can also treat buffer objects as sequence objects. In this context, they |
7 | 426 act as if they were lists (yes, they are mutable) of strings, with each |
236 | 427 element being a line of the buffer. All of the usual sequence operations, |
7 | 428 including indexing, index assignment, slicing and slice assignment, work as |
236 | 429 you would expect. Note that the result of indexing (slicing) a buffer is a |
430 string (list of strings). This has one unusual consequence - b[:] is different | |
431 from b. In particular, "b[:] = None" deletes the whole of the buffer, whereas | |
7 | 432 "b = None" merely updates the variable b, with no effect on the buffer. |
433 | |
236 | 434 Buffer indexes start at zero, as is normal in Python. This differs from vim |
435 line numbers, which start from 1. This is particularly relevant when dealing | |
7 | 436 with marks (see below) which use vim line numbers. |
437 | |
4350 | 438 The buffer object attributes are: |
18831 | 439 b.vars Dictionary-like object used to access |
4350 | 440 |buffer-variable|s. |
18831 | 441 b.options Mapping object (supports item getting, setting and |
442 deleting) that provides access to buffer-local options | |
443 and buffer-local values of |global-local| options. Use | |
444 |python-window|.options if option is window-local, | |
445 this object will raise KeyError. If option is | |
446 |global-local| and local value is missing getting it | |
4350 | 447 will return None. |

465 of the named mark (can also get the []"<> marks) | |
466 b.range(s,e) Return a range object (see |python-range|) which | |
467 represents the part of the given buffer between line | |
468 numbers s and e |inclusive|. | |
469 | |
20 | 470 Note that when adding a line it must not contain a line break character '\n'. |
471 A trailing '\n' is allowed and ignored, so that you can do: > | |
472 :py b.append(f.readlines()) | |
473 | |
4496 | 474 Buffer object type is available using "Buffer" attribute of vim module. |
475 | |
7 | 476 Examples (assume b is the current buffer) > |
20 | 477 :py print b.name # write the buffer file name |
478 :py b[0] = "hello!!!" # replace the top line | |
479 :py b[:] = None # delete the whole buffer | |
480 :py del b[:] # delete the whole buffer | |
481 :py b[0:0] = [ "a line" ] # add a line at the top | |
482 :py del b[2] # delete a line (the third) | |
483 :py b.append("bottom") # add a line at the bottom | |
484 :py n = len(b) # number of lines | |

492 4. Range objects *python-range* | |
493 | |
236 | 494 Range objects represent a part of a vim buffer. You can obtain them in a |
7 | 495 number of ways: |
496 - via vim.current.range (|python-current|) | |
497 - from a buffer's range() method (|python-buffer|) | |
498 | |
236 | 499 A range object is almost identical in operation to a buffer object. However, |
7 | 500 all operations are restricted to the lines within the range (this line range |
501 can, of course, change as a result of slice assignments, line deletions, or | |
502 the range.append() method). | |
503 | |
504 The range object attributes are: | |
505 r.start Index of first line into the buffer | |
506 r.end Index of last line into the buffer | |
507 | |
508 The range object methods are: | |
509 r.append(str) Append a line to the range | |

524 5. Window objects *python-window* | |
525 | |
236 | 526 Window objects represent vim windows. You can obtain them in a number of ways: |
7 | 527 - via vim.current.window (|python-current|) |
528 - from indexing vim.windows (|python-windows|) | |
4401 | 529 - from indexing "windows" attribute of a tab page (|python-tabpage|) |
530 - from the "window" attribute of a tab page (|python-tabpage|) | |
7 | 531 |
236 | 532 You can manipulate window objects only through their attributes. They have no |
7 | 533 methods, and no sequence or other interface. |
534 | |
535 Window attributes are: | |
536 buffer (read-only) The buffer displayed in this window | |
537 cursor (read-write) The current cursor position in the window | |
538 This is a tuple, (row,col). | |
539 height (read-write) The window height, in rows | |
540 width (read-write) The window width, in columns | |
18831 | 541 vars (read-only) The window |w:| variables. Attribute is |
542 unassignable, but you can change window | |
4323 | 543 variables this way |
18831 | 544 options (read-only) The window-local options. Attribute is |
545 unassignable, but you can change window | |
546 options this way. Provides access only to | |
547 window-local options, for buffer-local use | |
548 |python-buffer| and for global ones use | |
549 |python-options|. If option is |global-local| | |
550 and local value is missing getting it will | |
4350 | 551 return None. |
4379 | 552 number (read-only) Window number. The first window has number 1. |
553 This is zero in case it cannot be determined | |
554 (e.g. when the window object belongs to other | |
555 tab page). | |
4431 | 556 row, col (read-only) On-screen window position in display cells. |
4383 | 557 First position is zero. |
4431 | 558 tabpage (read-only) Window tab page. |
18831 | 559 valid (read-write) True or False. Window object becomes invalid |

569 | |
18831 | 570 Tab page objects represent vim tab pages. You can obtain them in a number of |
4401 | 571 ways: |
572 - via vim.current.tabpage (|python-current|) | |
573 - from indexing vim.tabpages (|python-tabpages|) | |
574 | |
18831 | 575 You can use this object to access tab page windows. They have no methods and |
4401 | 576 no sequence or other interfaces. |
577 | |
578 Tab page attributes are: | |
18831 | 579 number The tab page number like the one returned by |
4401 | 580 |tabpagenr()|. |
581 windows Like |python-windows|, but for current tab page. | |
582 vars The tab page |t:| variables. | |
583 window Current tabpage window. | |
