Ignore buffers created by no-neck-pain.nvim

[okkdev]

Hi, I'm using no-neck-pain.nvim. That plugin creates buffers on the sides to center your code.
Persisted autosaves these buffers too, which messes up the actual last opened file. So I'd like to ignore them completely.

I use the NoNeckPain buffers as scratch pads for notes so the buffers are files named "no-neck-pain-left.norg" and "no-neck-pain-right.norg", but are located outside of my current project folder.

So I tried adding "~/Documents/Notes" to the ignored_dirs, but that didn't work.

I've tried closing NoNeckPain pre save, but that didn't work either.

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("User", {
  pattern = "PersistedSavePre", 
  callback = function()
    require("no-neck-pain").disable()
  end
}) 

I also tried with the should_autosave setting.

should_autosave = function()
  if string.find(vim.api.nvim_buf_get_name(vim.bo), "no-neck-pain-") then
    return false
  end
  return true
end

I'm not sure how to get rid of these buffers. Would appreciate any ideas.

PersistedSavePre will fire before the session is written to disk so will be calling require("no-neck-pain").disable(). Does the disable() command close those scratch buffers?

Can you open up a bug report and follow the instructions in that. I can take a look.

If you do a print statement followed by a sleep do you see any output?

I can do that, thanks. :)

I guess dumb question, but how do I add a sleep?

You can do vim.loop.sleep(ms)

Thanks for testing the plugin and filling the issue btw, let me know if I can help making the integration between NNP and persisted easier :)

Thanks!

I added:

require("no-neck-pain").disable()
print("hello")
vim.loop.sleep(5000)

When I :q now, the center buffer (my code) closes, the noneckpain sides remain. The print("hello") doesn't appear. And it sleeps for 5 seconds. Then nvim exits.
The print might not show because I use Noice. 👀

I'll create the report now.
