Is It possible for fzf_lua to open file on correct line

[kevinrobayna]

Coming from Jetbrains and many other IDEs i've been used to when opening a file pass the line at the end with the format :123

Has anyone manage to do this with fzf?

Ideally when searching like this it should show the file

Unfortunately since fzf is an external process it’s a bit more involved to be able to transform the query and ignore anything past the : (so you can still have a fuzzy match), perhaps with the recent new features we might get closer to this ability but right now if possible would be a terrible hack.

Falling back to the full path written in the query prompt is possible but it would be useless as it would require the path be written fully and perfectly (i.e. no fuzzy search, no completion) and is therefore useless.

Yeah that makes sense!

FYI, fzf 0.59 made this possible, update to 8cdf9aa and use (works with any file-type picker):

:FzfLua files line_query=true

Once :<line> is detected it will be parsed and applied to both the previewer and action (enter, etc):

Oh this is awesome!!!
