Hold up! ⚠️

Did you know that VsCodeVim as of version 1.12.0 supports .vimrc files? So you might not even need this tool!

Set vim.vimrc.enable to true and set vim.vimrc.path appropriately.

.vimrc to JSON

A Python script that converts a .vimrc into a settings.json for VSCodeVim.

How to use

1. Install Python 3.x

2. Download vimrc-to-json.py manually or run curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Sheepolution/vimrc-to-json/master/vimrc-to-json.py > vimrc-to-json.py

3. Put your .vimrc and vimrc-to-json.py in the same directory

4. Run vimrc-to-json.py. It outputs a settings.json for VSCodeVim.

Example

.vim

nmap nt gg
nnoremap + <C-a>
vnoremap Y :w<CR>

settings.json

{
	"vim.normalModeKeyBindings": [
		{
			"before": ["n", "t"],
			"after": ["g", "g"]
		}
	],
	"vim.normalModeKeyBindingsNonRecursive": [
		{
			"before": ["+"],
			"after": ["<C-a>"]
		}
	],
	"vim.visualModeKeyBindingsNonRecursive": [
		{
			"before": ["Y"],
			"commands": [":w"]
		}
	]
}
