Refactoring

timvim bundles ThePrimeagen's refactoring.nvim for reliable, language-aware code transformations. All operations live under Space r. Extract operations generally start from a visual selection; inline operations act on the symbol under the cursor.

Visual-mode operations

Select the code first, then press the key.

Key	Mode	Action
<leader>re	v	Extract a function
<leader>rf	v	Extract to a new file
<leader>rv	v	Extract a variable

Normal & mixed-mode operations

Key	Mode	Action
<leader>ri	n, v	Inline a variable
<leader>rI	n	Inline a function
<leader>rb	n	Extract a block into a function
<leader>rB	n	Extract a block to a new file
<leader>rr	n, v	Open the refactor menu (all options)

Not sure which one?

Press <leader>rr to open the interactive menu and pick from every available refactor in one place.

Supported languages

Refactoring works across:

Go, Python, JavaScript / TypeScript, Lua, C / C++, Java, Ruby, PHP

How it works

refactoring.nvim uses Treesitter to understand scope, so extracted functions and variables carry the correct parameters and return values for the language you are editing.
