Add nvr (neovim-remote) to list of editors

Closed Administrator requested to merge github/fork/tuxflo/add-nvr-editor into master

Created by: tuxflo

neovim-remote (nvr) is a tool to open files from an external command to an existing neovim session. If the neovim session which is used for the CRA project is started with NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS=/tmp/nvimsocket nvim, nvr can be used from the CRA error page to jump directly to the file/line if an error occurs. To use it one only has to set the environment var: REACT_EDITOR=nvr

Steps to test:

  1. install nvr
  2. start neovim session wit NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS=/tmp/nvimsocket nvim
  3. set REACT_EDITOR=nvr
  4. open development project (yarn start) in Browser and produce error
  5. click on error message

Result: the file containing the error is opened in the existing neovim session. If the file is already open in a buffer, jump to the line containing the error.
