Vim without NERD tree or CtrlP

Vim without NERD tree or CtrlP

I used to use NERD tree for quite a while, then switched to CtrlP for something a little more lightweight. My setup now includes zero file browser or tree view, and instead uses native Vim fuzzy search and auto-directory switching.

Fuzzy Search

There is a super sweet feature in Vim whereby you can fuzzy find your files using **/*, e.g.:

:vs **/*<partial file name><Tab>
#!/bin/sh
# in case it's already installled
vagrant plugin uninstall vagrant-libvirt
# vagrant's copy of curl prevents the proper installation of ruby-libvirt
sudo mv /opt/vagrant/embedded/lib/libcurl.so{,.backup}
sudo mv /opt/vagrant/embedded/lib/libcurl.so.4{,.backup}
sudo mv /opt/vagrant/embedded/lib/libcurl.so.4.4.0{,.backup}
sudo mv /opt/vagrant/embedded/lib/pkgconfig/libcurl.pc{,.backup}

Provisioning and usage of unprivileged LXC containers via indirect login or script #blog

Provisioning and usage of unprivileged LXC containers via indirect login or script

As I've discovered, managing LXC containers is fairly straightforward, but when building out a system for provisioning out user maintained instances of NodeBB, it was imperative that unprivileged LXC containers were used, so that in the event of shell breakout from NodeBB followed by privilege escalation of the saas user, the root user in the LXC container would only be an unprivileged user on the host machine.

During the course of development, I ran into numerous blockers when it came to managing LXC containers in unexpected circumstances. Namely:

  • Using LXC in a subshell is not directly supported. This usually happens under one of the following two circumstances:
    • After switching users via su or executing lxc-* commands as another user via sudo
    • Executing lxc-* commands via a program, application, or script. In my case, a Node.js application.

Prefix key

The default prefix is C-b. If you (or your muscle memory) prefer C-a, you need to add this to ~/.tmux.conf:
