Add ability to make ad hoc pickers

[jcorum11]

similar to this issue it would be awesome to run ad hoc pickers on the fly. Something like :lua require('easypick').adhoc('git diff develop --name-only') or (if possible) :Easypick adhoc git diff develop --name-only. It would make it a lot easier to test pickers before committing to using them, or throwing together a one off picker that I will never use again.

Thank you, very nice idea.

Hi! Can you switch to the test branch to test it out? The command now is

require('easypick').one_off('git diff develop --name-only')

I'll look at this today!

is this thread a good place to communicate with you about this @axkirillov?

I ran the command inside a Neovim instance:

:lua require('easypick').one_off('git diff develop --name-only')

it didn't work, an error came up with:

E5108: Error executing lua [string ":lua"]:1: attempt to call field 'one_off' (a nil value)
stack traceback:
	[string ":lua"]:1: in main chunk

I checked that I was on the test branch by using LazyVim's builtin command :Lazy to check the last commit message for the commit that the package is on

I am using the package manager lazy.vim in a LazyVim setup. Here is what I did to use the test branch:

{
  "axkirillov/easypick.nvim",
  dependencies = "nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim",
  branch = "test",
},

I will keep looking into this but further guidance on how it should be used or help troubleshooting would be awesome.

Lots of respect and gratitude for adding this ❤️

🤦‍♂️ it would help if I pulled the right branch...

I'll test more :)

so far it works BEAUTIFULLY

:lua require('easypick').one_off('fd "actions.lua"')

:lua require('easypick').one_off('git diff develop --name-only')

@jcorum11 Glad that it works, I'll merge it into main then
