tmux-thumbs
A lightning fast version of tmux-fingers written in Rust for copy pasting with vimium/vimperator like hints.
Usage
Press ( prefix + Space ) to highlist in you current tmux visible pane all text that match specific pattern. Then press the highlighted letter hint to yank the text in your tmux buffer.
Matched patterns
- File paths
- File in diff
- Git SHAs
- Colors in hex
- Numbers ( 4+ digits )
- Hex numbers
- Markdown urls
- IP4 addresses
- kubernetes resources
- UUIDs
These are the list of mattched patterns that will be highlighted by default. If
you want to highlight a pattern that is not in this list you can add one or
more with --regexp
parameter.
Demo
Tmux integration
Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/fcsonline/tmux-thumbs ~/.tmux/plugins/tmux-thumbs
Compile it with cargo:
cd ~/.tmux/plugins/tmux-thumbs
cargo build --release
Source it in your .tmux.conf
:
run-shell ~/.tmux/plugins/tmux-thumbs/tmux-thumbs.tmux
Reload TMUX conf by running:
tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf
Configuration
If you want to customize how is shown your tmux-thumbs hints those all available parameters to set your perfect profile.
NOTE: for changes to take effect, you'll need to source again your .tmux.conf
file.

@thumbs-alphabet
default: qwerty
Choose which set of characters is used to build hints. Review all available alphabets
For example:
set -g @thumbs-alphabet dvorak-homerow
@thumbs-reverse
default: disabled
Choose in which direction you want to assign hints. Useful to get shorter hints closer to the cursor.
For example:
set -g @thumbs-reverse
@thumbs-unique
default: disabled
Choose if you want to assign the same hint for the same matched strings.
For example:
set -g @thumbs-unique
@thumbs-position
default: left
Choose where do you want to show the hint in the matched string. Options (left, right).
For example:
set -g @thumbs-position right
@thumbs-regexp-N
Add extra patterns to match. This paramenter can have multiple instances.
For example:
set @thumbs-regexp-1 '[a-z]+@[a-z]+.com' # Match emails
set @thumbs-regexp-2 '[a-f0-9]{2}:[a-f0-9]{2}:[a-f0-9]{2}:[a-f0-9]{2}:[a-f0-9]{2}:[a-f0-9]{2}:' # Match MAC addresses
@thumbs-command
default: 'tmux set-buffer {}'
Choose which command execute when you press a hint.
For example:
set -g @thumbs-command 'pbcopy'
@thumbs-upcase-command
default: 'tmux paste-buffer'
Choose which command execute when you press a upcase hint
For example:
set -g @thumbs-upcase-command 'pbcopy'
@thumbs-bg-color
default: black
Sets the background color for matches
For example:
set -g @thumbs-bg-color blue
@thumbs-fg-color
default: green
Sets the foregroud color for matches
For example:
set -g @thumbs-fg-color green
@thumbs-hint-bg-color
default: black
Sets the background color for hints
For example:
set -g @thumbs-hint-bg-color blue
@thumbs-hint-fg-color
default: yellow
Sets the foregroud color for hints
For example:
set -g @thumbs-hint-fg-color green
@thumbs-select-fg-color
default: blue
Sets the foregroud color for selection
For example:
set -g @thumbs-select-fg-color red

- Auto paste: If your last typed hint character is uppercase, you are going to pick and paste the desired hint.
Background
As I said, this project is based in tmux-fingers. Morantron did an extraordinary job, building all necessary pieces in Bash to achieve the text picker behaviour. He only deserves my gratitude for all the time I have been using tmux-fingers.
During a Fosdem conf, we had the idea to rewrite it to another language. He had these thoughts many times ago but it was hard to start from scratch. So, we decided to start playing with Node.js and react-blessed, but we detected some unacceptable latency when the program booted. We didn't investigate much about this latency.
During those days another alternative appeared, called tmux-picker, implemented in python and reusing many parts from tmux-fingers. It was nice, because it was fast and added original terminal color support.
I was curious to know if this was possible to be written in Rust, and soon I realized that was something doable. The ability to implement tests for all critic parts of the application give you a great confidence about it. On the other hand, Rust has an awesome community that lets you achieve this kind of project in a short period of time.
Contribute
This project started as a side project to learn Rust, so I'm sure that is full of mistakes and areas to be improve. If you think you can tweak the code to make it better, I'll really appreaciate a pull request. ;)
