Starting an arbitrary client in a markdown file

[benlubas]

Hi, every so often I write some code in a qmd file (which is essentially just markdown. I'd like to be able to start a repl client while I'm in the markdown file to run code in fenced code blocks.

idk if I'm describing that very well. I just want to be able to manually trigger whatever happens when I enter a rust or python buffer that starts the repl and adds all the conjure key mappings.

Thanks for any help!

This is the solution that I have after looking at the source code a little.

This in combination with a bit of lua lets me run code cells in a qmd document very nicely. But I'm going to leave this open for now, incase there is a cleaner solution out there.

vim.keymap.set("n", "<localleader>ir", function()
  require("conjure.client.rust.evcxr").start()

vim.keymap.set("n", "<localleader>lv", require('conjure.log').vsplit, { desc = "vsplit open conjure log"})
end, { desc = "start evcxr for rust" })

---@param lang string the language of the code cell
---@param start integer the starting row
---@param end_ integer the ending row
local run_with_conjure = function(lang, start, end_)
  local eval = require("conjure.eval")
  local client = require("conjure.client")
  local log = require("conjure.log")

  local lines = vim.api.nvim_buf_get_lines(0, start - 1, end_, false)
  local code = table.concat(lines, "")

  client["with-filetype"](lang, eval["eval-str"], {
    origin = "arbitrary_code_runner",
    code = code,
    ["passive?"] = true, -- don't trigger virtual text or append to the log (b/c it's buggy)
    ["on-result"] = function(r)
      client["with-filetype"](lang, log.append, { ("// %s"):format(r) }, { ["break?"] = true })
    end,
  })
end
