*mini.bufremove* Remove buffers
*MiniBufremove*

MIT License Copyright (c) 2021 Evgeni Chasnovski

==============================================================================

Features:
- Unshow, delete, and wipeout buffer while saving window layout
  (opposite to builtin Neovim's commands).

# Setup ~

This module doesn't need setup, but it can be done to improve usability.
Setup with `require('mini.bufremove').setup({})` (replace `{}` with your
`config` table). It will create global Lua table `MiniBufremove` which you
can use for scripting or manually (with `:lua MiniBufremove.*`).

See |MiniBufremove.config| for `config` structure and default values.

This module doesn't have runtime options, so using `vim.b.minibufremove_config`
will have no effect here.

To stop module from showing non-error feedback, set `config.silent = true`.

# Notes ~

1. Which buffer to show in window(s) after its current buffer is removed is
   decided by the algorithm:
   - If alternate buffer (see |CTRL-^|) is listed (see |buflisted()|), use it.
   - If previous listed buffer (see |bprevious|) is different, use it.
   - Otherwise create a new one with `nvim_create_buf(true, false)` and use it.

# Disabling ~

To disable core functionality, set `vim.g.minibufremove_disable` (globally) or
`vim.b.minibufremove_disable` (for a buffer) to `true`. Considering high
number of different scenarios and customization intentions, writing exact
rules for disabling module's functionality is left to user. See
|mini.nvim-disabling-recipes| for common recipes.

                                                         *MiniBufremove.setup()*
                        `MiniBufremove.setup`({config})
Module setup

Parameters ~
{config} `(table|nil)` Module config table. See |MiniBufremove.config|.

Usage ~
>lua
  require('mini.bufremove').setup() -- use default config
  -- OR
  require('mini.bufremove').setup({}) -- replace {} with your config table

                             `MiniBufremove.config`
Module config

Default values:
>lua
  MiniBufremove.config = {
    -- Whether to set Vim's settings for buffers (allow hidden buffers)
    set_vim_settings = true,

    -- Whether to disable showing non-error feedback
    silent = false,

                                                        *MiniBufremove.delete()*
                   `MiniBufremove.delete`({buf_id}, {force})
Delete buffer `buf_id` with |:bdelete| after unshowing it

Parameters ~
{buf_id} `(number|nil)` Buffer identifier (see |bufnr()|) to use.
  Default: 0 for current.
{force} `(boolean|nil)` Whether to ignore unsaved changes (using `!` version of
  command). If `false`, calling with unsaved changes will prompt confirm dialog.
  Default: `false`.

Return ~
`(boolean|nil)` Whether operation was successful. If `nil`, no operation was done.

                                                       *MiniBufremove.wipeout()*
                   `MiniBufremove.wipeout`({buf_id}, {force})
Wipeout buffer `buf_id` with |:bwipeout| after unshowing it

Parameters ~
{buf_id} `(number|nil)` Buffer identifier (see |bufnr()|) to use.
  Default: 0 for current.
{force} `(boolean|nil)` Whether to ignore unsaved changes (using `!` version of
  command). If `false`, calling with unsaved changes will prompt confirm dialog.
  Default: `false`.

Return ~
`(boolean|nil)` Whether operation was successful. If `nil`, no operation was done.

                                                        *MiniBufremove.unshow()*
                        `MiniBufremove.unshow`({buf_id})
Stop showing buffer `buf_id` in all windows

Parameters ~
{buf_id} `(number|nil)` Buffer identifier (see |bufnr()|) to use.
  Default: 0 for current.

Return ~
`(boolean|nil)` Whether operation was successful. If `nil`, no operation was done.

                                              *MiniBufremove.unshow_in_window()*
                   `MiniBufremove.unshow_in_window`({win_id})
Stop showing current buffer of window `win_id`

Notes:
- If `win_id` represents |cmdline-window|, this function will close it.

Parameters ~
{win_id} `(number|nil)` Window identifier (see |win_getid()|) to use.
  Default: 0 for current.

Return ~
`(boolean|nil)` Whether operation was successful. If `nil`, no operation was done.
