Fortran Vim Plugin

February 27, 2024 ยท View on GitHub

This repository provides a Vim plugin for Fortran developers. In its current version, it can be used to jump to the declaration of a variable, subroutine, function, etc. and to all its references. All related files must either be part of a Git repository or inside the current working directory.

This plugin calls fortls under the hood.

Installation

  1. Install vim-plug if you do not have it yet. See installation instructions here.

  2. Add the following lines to your .vimrc file:

call plug#begin()
Plug 'terminationshock/fortran-vim-plugin'
call plug#end()

  1. Re-open Vim and run :PlugInstall.

  2. Install further Python packages with pip install GitPython fortls.

  3. Run fortls -v to verify that the language server is ready.

Usage

Open any Fortran file and move the cursor onto an entity name (for example, a variable or a subroutine). Press F3 to navigate to its declaration. Press F4 to see all references.

Update

To fetch the latest version of this plugin, run :PlugUpdate.
