I'm getting the following error when I startup neovim:

 This extension doesn't exist or is not installed: fzf

Not sure what is happening here, if I'm correct the binary should be build automatically.

Hey @Conni2461,

You may remember me when we you helped me with a couple of PRs for telescope a while ago.

Anyway, I am primarily a Windows user and spend a bunch of my time helping fix Windows issues with the nvim ecosystem. I can see that this plugin here requires "extra" work for Windows users that probably is not needed if we just bundle the dll with. Unlike Linux, this dll will work on Windows unchanged as it's very simple. Probably doesn't need to be built on the user's machine.

How can I help? I can see a couple of challenges:

• How to keep the dll updated as you make changes. I can help here of course by providing a latest. But I can see that as being a problem for scaling. Having said that, it seems that you're not making frequent changes to the code really.
• How do you/anyone trust that the dll I am producing is safe? I can inject randomness in there. Not sure how to help with that.

Anyway, I am available to help if it's something you need. This plugin seems almost core to Telescope now from a perf point of view. Windows users will probably not use it since compiling it locally requires extra steps. In the meantime, I will see if there's something I can do to help make building it easier?

Thanks!

while i use grep with this plugin with this command :lua require("telescope.builtin").grep_string({previewer = false, only_sort_text = true, cmd = os.getenv("CD"), search = vim.fn.input("Grep For > ")})

i am testing in the moodle src code for a project with 27k files and i try to search with grep and type html and then in the result window type html and nvim core dumped

seqmentation fault (code dumed)

what do you need more ? ps. the src for moodle can be found in https://download.moodle.org/releases/latest

Hi. I have the following packer config:

 use {                                                        
   'nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim',                           
   requires = {                                               
     {'nvim-lua/popup.nvim'},                                 
     {'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim'},                               
     {'nvim-telescope/telescope-fzy-native.nvim', run="make"},
     {'nvim-telescope/telescope-symbols.nvim'},               
   },                                                         
 }                                                            

After adding run="make" clause I get

✗ Failed to install nvim-telescope/telescope-fzy-native.nvim

message when trying to install.

However, the plugin is installed and I can do

require("telescope").load_extension("fzy_native")

perfectly fine. I still cannot check if it is really working though.

FZF uses string length as a tiebreaker by default when the score is tied between two results. Would it be possible to implement it in telescope-fzf-native too?

In FZF:

In telescope-fzf-native:

Here in junegunn/fzf the tiebreaker logic is implemented.

Close #24

@luisiacc Can you try if this works now? Out of the box. So checkout branch and make clean && make

@ryanreno Can you check if OpenBSD still works after that. I need to force CC=gcc for windows. windows doesn't have cc. I only set it if the OS is windows but i still wanted to ask, if you can test it. Thanks :)

After successful :PackerSync and restart, I still cannot run :Telescope fzf. I get the following error:

E5108: Error executing lua ...ck/packer/start/telescope.nvim/lua/telescope/command.lua:184: attempt to call a nil value 

This is the relevant part of my config (packer-based, obvs)

    use {
      "nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim",
      requires = {
        "sharkdp/fd",
        "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",
        {"nvim-telescope/telescope-packer.nvim", requires = "wbthomason/packer.nvim"},
        {"nvim-telescope/telescope-fzf-native.nvim", run = "make"}
      },
      config = function()
        local tscope = require("telescope")
        tscope.setup {}
        tscope.load_extension "packer"
        tscope.load_extension "fzf"
      end
    }

I am currently stuck with this issue!

Got this error while compiling the plugin with make

As you can see, I'm on Windows 10. Same error on powershell, cmd and alacritty.

• Tried with version 3.81 of make, same error.

Hey guys, i've been using fzf with telescope for a while but i recently bought a new MBP with Apple Silicon. When i try to follow the installation and setup instructions, it fails with the following error:

Good day to you!

I've got an up to date plugin and telescope I'm using default packer installation and default setup and config

Running any command with fzf-native showing me this error:

Hello, my first github issue, not too sure where to file this.

I followed the steps and installed the latest build that supports Windows and I've checked and indeed the dll is created in "\Local\nvim-data\site\pack\packer\start\telescope-fzf-native.nvim\build\libfzf.dll". When I relaunch nvim (version 0.7) I still get the following error:

Error executing Lua callback: ...ck\packer\start\telescope.nvim/lua/telescope/command.lua:193: attempt to call a nil value stack traceback: ...ck\packer\start\telescope.nvim/lua/telescope/command.lua:193: in function 'run_command' ...ck\packer\start\telescope.nvim/lua/telescope/command.lua:253: in function 'load_command' ...te\pack\packer\start\telescope.nvim\plugin\telescope.lua:109: in function <...te\pack\packer\start\telescope.nvim\plugin\telescope.lua:108>

If this is not the place to ask, thats cool.. just tell me to go pound sand.

I did my best trying to look at the error and look at the calls provided by the error msg, but I just don't know Lua (at all) and nothing really jumped out at me. So it's not the fact that the dll isn't being created, because it is...

really wanted to try this plugin/addon

Hi, I've been trying to make the fzf native sorter the default sorter for all the pickers but I keep finding on the sorter working only on a few of them like the find_files picker, but for example not in the lsp ones, tags or even the grep_search.

My question is, is this a config issue on my end or a plugin issue?

As file name appear at the end of its path, enabling end criterion would result in accurate matches. This feature would also be helpful in the case of :Telescope tags where in the symbols are present at the end of the line.

PS: I'm aware about this package of not keeping feature parity with original FZF. If you find this too much of a work or if this feature feels out of scope for this plugin, we can close this issue.

Combination of NOT (!) operator and OR (|) works differently than in vanilla fzf.

For example (on this repo with default telescope + fzf-native config):

whereas command line fzf gives me
