DESCRIPTION This plugin automatically adapts information like "last modified" timestamps and copyright notices, or applies any other substitution before each file save. Where and what is replaced can be configured globally and for each individual buffer. The plugin ships with configuration defaults which handle the most common copyright notices, e.g.:     Copyright: (C) 2011-2019 Ingo Karkat and modification timestamps such as     Last Change: Sat 23 Mar 2019 21:39:31 C     Modified: 2019 Mar 23 SOURCE - The regular expression for updating copyright notices is derived from     http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Automatically_Update_Copyright_Notice_in_Files RELATED WORKS - autodate.vim (vimscript #291) is an old plugin that can insert and update a   time stamp (between a prefix and postfix) in a certain format. - ferallastchange.vim (vimscript #680) is an old plugin that searches for a   prefix and then updates the timestamp in a certain format. - timstamp.vim (vimscript #371) takes pattern and replacement parts like this   plugin (the replacement part also supports some custom tokens e.g. for   hostname), and is functionally very close. - timestamp.vim (vimscript #923) is based on timstamp.vim. It allows only one   pattern and feeds the replacement part to strftime(), making it less   general. - header.vim (vimscript #1142) insert or updates a header at the top, in a   rather primitive way, and limited to shell, Python, Perl, and Vim scripts. - lastmod.vim (vimscript #3578) is a short and simple plugin for replacing one   pattern with a timestamp in the first N lines. - better-header.vim (vimscript #4676) can insert and update a header for   Python and shell scripts, and requires Python itself. - update-time (vimscript #4786) searches the first and last lines for a single   prefix and then automatically updates a following timestamp. USAGE The adaptation happens before every buffer save (BufWritePre event), e.g. with the :write command. No action required. You can configure (g:AutoAdapt_Rules) and disable this, though: :NoAutoAdapt            Turn off automatic adapting for the current buffer. :AutoAdapt[!]           Turn on automatic adapting for the current buffer,                         after having it turned off via|:NoAutoAdapt|, or to                         enable adapting for a buffer when the automatic                         adapting has been configured to exclude the current                         buffer via g:AutoAdapt_FilePattern, or (with [!]) to                         override a configured Predicate which disables                         adaptation for the buffer. :Adapt[!]               Trigger manual adaptation of the current buffer (when                         automatic adaption has been turned off via                         :NoAutoAdapt). With [!] also overrides a configured                         Predicate which disables adaptation for the buffer.

install details

INSTALLATION The code is hosted in a Git repo at     https://github.com/inkarkat/vim-AutoAdapt You can use your favorite plugin manager, or "git clone" into a directory used for Vim packages. Releases are on the "stable" branch, the latest unstable development snapshot on "master". This script is also packaged as a vimball. If you have the "gunzip" decompressor in your PATH, simply edit the *.vmb.gz package in Vim; otherwise, decompress the archive first, e.g. using WinZip. Inside Vim, install by sourcing the vimball or via the :UseVimball command.     vim AutoAdapt*.vmb.gz     :so % To uninstall, use the :RmVimball command. DEPENDENCIES - Requires Vim 7.0 or higher. - Requires the ingo-library.vim plugin (vimscript #4433), version 1.025 or   higher. CONFIGURATION For a permanent configuration, put the following commands into your vimrc: If you want to apply the adaptation only to certain files, you can specify autocmd-patterns instead of the default "*". This must be set before the plugin is sourced:     let g:AutoAdapt_FilePattern = '*.h,*.c,*.cpp' Alternatively, if you want to opt-in for certain files only instead of opting out via :NoAutoAdapt, completely disable the automatic adaptation through     let g:AutoAdapt_FilePattern = '' and use :AutoAdapt, e.g. in combination with a local vimrc plugin. The number of lines at the start of the buffer when the rules are applied by default:     let g:AutoAdapt_FirstLines = 25 The number of lines at the end of the buffer when the rules are applied by default:     let g:AutoAdapt_LastLines = 10 The reasoning for a larger "first lines" value is that there may be more boilerplate code at the file's header. (Also for this reason, the 'modelines' value is not used by default.) You can override both values for particular buffers / filetypes with the buffer-scoped variable. The plugin uses a list of rules to adapt the buffer contents on each save. You can add your own rules, or completely replace the default rules. Rules can also be overridden for individual buffers with a buffer-local variable. The rules consist of a List of Rule objects:     let g:AutoAdapt_Rules = [     \   {     \       'name': 'Copyright notice',     \       'pattern': '\c\<Copyright:\?\d\{4}\>',     \       'replacement': strftime('%Y'),     \       'range': 'modelines'     \   },     \   { ... }     \] name                    An optional, human-readable description of the rule. pattern                 The regular-expression as used in a :substitute                         command (with the separator character /, or                         substitutionSeparator). patternexpr             A Funcref (that takes the entire current rule object)                         or a String that is |eval()|ed to yield the pattern.                         Updates the pattern attribute on each run. You can use                         this to e.g. get the current date (via strftime(),                         to avoid a match of the current date with /@!) into                         the pattern. The Funcref can throw "AutoAdaptSkip" to                         skip the application of this rule. replacement             The replacement; you can use text or                         sub-replace-special. range                   The (optional) range to which parts of the buffer the                         rule will be applied. It defaults to the empty string                         "", which uses the g:AutoAdapt_FirstLines and                         g:AutoAdapt_LastLines variables. Alternatives are:                         "modelines", which considers the 'modelines' number of                         lines at both the start and end of the buffer.                         You can also use "%" for the entire buffer, or use                         numbered ranges "11,42". substitutionSeparator   The separator in the :substitute. Change from the                         default "/" to another non-alphanumeric single-byte                         character when the default is cumbersome. E146 To skip the automatic adaptation for certain files, in addition to g:AutoAdapt_FilePattern and :NoAutoAdapt, you can also configure a Funcref (if that is more convenient) that is passed the current file's filespec, and should return a Boolean value whether it should be adapted. For example, if you have the writebackupVersionControl.vim plugin (vimscript #1829) installed, you can skip adapting backups via:     let g:AutoAdapt_Predicate = function('writebackupVersionControl#IsOriginalFile') INTEGRATION After each write, the plugin sets the variable b:AutoAdapt to the number of rules that have been applied. If no rule was applied, the variable is removed. The :NoAutoAdapt sets the variable to 0 to indicate that the plugin is disabled for that buffer. If you want to indicate (e.g. in your 'statusline') whether automatic adapting took place or whether you've manually overridden the automation, you can use the AutoAdapt#Info#Status() function, which returns:     "adapted"   when adaptation took place     "noadapt"   when automatic adaptation is enabled, but was turned off via                 :NoAutoAdapt for this buffer     "adapt"     when automatic adaptation is disabled, but was turned on via                 :AutoAdapt for this buffer     ""          in all other situations
