Rainbow Parentheses Improved

help you read complex code by showing diff level of parentheses in diff color !!

As everyone knows, the most complex codes were composed of a mass of different kinds of parentheses (typically: lisp). This plugin will help you read these codes by showing different levels of parentheses in different colors. You can also find this plugin in www.vim.org.

What is improved ?

  • no limit of parentheses levels.
  • separately edit guifgs and ctermfgs (the colors used for highlighting).
  • now you can design your own parentheses such as 'begin' and 'end'.
  • you can also configure anything separately for different types of files.
  • now you can even decide to let some operators (like + - * / , ==) highlighted with the parentheses together.
  • dot separated combined filetype support (:h ft).
  • json style configuration used, more understandable and readable, easier for advanced configuration.
  • the code is shorter and easier to read now.
  • smoother and faster.
  • the Chinese document is added.

Install:

via Vundle:

Plugin 'luochen1990/rainbow'
let g:rainbow_active = 1 "0 if you want to enable it later via :RainbowToggle

Manually:

  • first, execute the following commands (for windows users, use ~/vimfiles instead of ~/.vim)

     git clone https://github.com/luochen1990/rainbow.git
     cd rainbow
     cp plugin/* ~/.vim/plugin
     cp autoload/* ~/.vim/autoload
  • second, add the follow sentences to your .vimrc or _vimrc :

     let g:rainbow_active = 1 "0 if you want to enable it later via :RainbowToggle
  • third, restart your vim and enjoy coding.

Configure:

There is an example for advanced configuration (which I'm using), add it to your vimrc and edit it as you wish (just keep the format).

	let g:rainbow_conf = {
	\	'guifgs': ['royalblue3', 'darkorange3', 'seagreen3', 'firebrick'],
	\	'ctermfgs': ['lightblue', 'lightyellow', 'lightcyan', 'lightmagenta'],
	\	'operators': '_,_',
	\	'parentheses': ['start=/(/ end=/)/ fold', 'start=/\[/ end=/\]/ fold', 'start=/{/ end=/}/ fold'],
	\	'separately': {
	\		'*': {},
	\		'tex': {
	\			'parentheses': ['start=/(/ end=/)/', 'start=/\[/ end=/\]/'],
	\		},
	\		'lisp': {
	\			'guifgs': ['royalblue3', 'darkorange3', 'seagreen3', 'firebrick', 'darkorchid3'],
	\		},
	\		'vim': {
	\			'parentheses': ['start=/(/ end=/)/', 'start=/\[/ end=/\]/', 'start=/{/ end=/}/ fold', 'start=/(/ end=/)/ containedin=vimFuncBody', 'start=/\[/ end=/\]/ containedin=vimFuncBody', 'start=/{/ end=/}/ fold containedin=vimFuncBody'],
	\		},
	\		'html': {
	\			'parentheses': ['start=/\v\<((area|base|br|col|embed|hr|img|input|keygen|link|menuitem|meta|param|source|track|wbr)[ >])@!\z([-_:a-zA-Z0-9]+)(\s+[-_:a-zA-Z0-9]+(\=("[^"]*"|'."'".'[^'."'".']*'."'".'|[^ '."'".'"><=`]*))?)*\>/ end=#</\z1># fold'],
	\		},
	\		'css': 0,
	\	}
	\}
  • 'guifgs': colors for gui interface, will be used in order.
  • 'ctermfgs': colors for terms.
  • 'operators': describe the operators you want to highlight (note: be careful about special characters which needs escaping, you can find more examples here, and you can also read the vim help about syn-pattern).
  • 'parentheses': describe what will be processed as parentheses, a pair of parentheses was described by two re pattern.
  • 'separately': configure for specific filetypes (decided by &ft), key * for filetypes without separate configuration, value 0 means disable rainbow only for this type of files, value "default" means keep the default shim for this filetype (notice: the default shim config will change between plugin version).
  • keep a field empty to use the default setting.

User Command:

  • :RainbowToggle --you can use it to toggle this plugin.
