# `broot-sessionizer`
A replacement for [`tmux-sessionizer`](https://github.com/theprimeagen/tmux-sessionizer) that uses the broot instead of fzf, and runs in the minibuffer.

For those unfamiliar, here is the basic sessionizer workflow:
- You have one tmux session for every project that you're working on.
- The script presents you with a menu to select one of your projects from
  - If a tmux session for that project already exists, switch to it
  - Otherwise, create the session and switch to it

Differences from tmux-sessionizer:
- lets you pick any directory in the filesystem, instead of from a set list of projects.
- sets @default-path in the session to the path the user selects (useful for scripting)

## Setup
If you haven't already, clone this repo to a know location, such as `~/.config/tmux/m`.
```sh
cd ~/.config/tmux
git clone https://bluedragon1221/tmux-minibuffer m
```

Next, on the line that says `external =` in `broot_cfg.sh`, replace `~/.config/tmux/sessionizer.sh` with the correct path to `sessionizer.sh`.

Now we can add our keybinding to launch it:
```sh
bind-key -n C-f run-shell "~/.config/tmux/m/minibuffer.sh -d '$HOME' '~/.config/tmux/m/broot-sessionizer/launch.sh'"
```

Optionally, you can create a binding to the menu instead:
```sh
bind-key -n C-p run-shell "~/.config/tmux/m/broot-sessionizer/menu.sh"
```
The menu has the shortcut `p` to open the sessionizer, along with shortcuts for opening active sessions.
