Introduction

This is the web documentation for tasks.vim, a (neo)vim plugin written to manage and run global and project-local tasks, like starting builds, executing tests and the like.

This plugin is heavily inspired by asynctasks.vim, of which it can be considered a rewrite.

Features

• can handle parallel jobs
• expands vim filename modifiers (%, %:p, etc) in commands
• configuration files written in a format similar to ini files
• global and project-local configurations
• tasks can be filetype and OS specific
• multiple output modes: embedded terminal, quickfix window, and others
• tasks tags for profile switching

Modules

It comprises two main modules:

• async.vim: handles async tasks and provides a handful of commands
• tasks.vim: the task manager itself
