Neovim plugin to remotely edit files over SSH

scamp 🐕

Scamp is a simple Neovim plugin for remotely editing files. Scamp uses SCP and assumes key-based SSH authentication. Scamp is designed for people who do not use Netrw, e.g.:

-- ~/.config/nvim/init.lua
vim.g.loaded_netrwPlugin = 1
vim.g.loaded_netrw       = 1

Installing

$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/nat-418/scamp.nvim ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/scamp/start/scamp.nvim

Configuration

Add the following to your configuration:

-- ~/.config/nvim/init.lua
require('scamp').setup()

This setup function accepts a table of configuration options. Here are the defaults:

-- ~/.config/nvim/init.lua
require('scamp').setup({
  -- see man(5) ssh_config for more control options
  scp_options = {
    'ConnectTimeout=5'
  }
})

Usage

Scamp hooks into read and write events, so you can simply :edit scp://[e-mail]/whatever and :write normally.
