Hello!
This patch is directly dependent on https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=41868
since I reused one of the functions added by Philip K.
For now I rely on that report to be resolved before this.
However, attached is a patch for project-switch-to-buffer, where only file-bound buffers are included. I believe the function should be kind of self explanatory.
I use this daily, but stole the buffer list function since it was better than my initial one, and seems to be accepted soon :)
I find this useful, and hope others will as well. I bind it myself to 'C-x p b'.
The 'project--list-buffers' will not be part of the final patch, but I wanted to provide it so that you have a working example.
Theodor

Cool! Just note that in the following patch I renamed the function to
project--buffer-list, so that it looks and acts more like
buffer-list. Sorry for the inconvenience though, didn't expect anyone
to pick the function up that quickly.

Sounds good.

I see that the code uses project--completing-read-strict. I'm not
entirely happy with that function, yet.
Have you tried calling read-buffer with a PREDICATE argument instead?
That would require extracting some code from project--list-buffers
(defined in Philip's patch), but it should be straightforward.

Ok, I just thought I'd use something already written :)

The attached patch works fine, and is also not reliant on Philip's patch. I omitted the DEF argument, since then I had to do the filtering beforehand, and also in the PREDICATE function. Just seems a little redundant to me, but maybe it should be there
The complete patch is a lot smaller now as well!
What do you think?

The REQUIRE-MATCH argument should be t, I think.

The word "path" is reserved for something else (e.g. exec-path) in the
GNU project.
Call it file or file-name.

Do we need this conversion? It'll add some runtime overhead, and I'm not
sure in which conditions the result will be different.

Why 'buffer and not t?

I just figured it as readable, but t is there now!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Shouldn't this just be (file-in-directory-p file root), without the
(when ... t)?

It kind of does, though indirectly? But sure, I can add a small comment.
Documentation states that:
"It will be called with each potential candidate, in the form of either a
string or a cons cell whose ‘car’ is a string, and should return non-nil to
accept the candidate for completion, nil otherwise."

I know, but this says nothing about the cdr.

That's not right: BUFFER is a flat cons cell, not an alist. Please also
start sentences with a capital letter and end them with a full stop.
I'd write something like this:
;; BUFFER is an entry (BUF-NAME . BUF-OBJ) of Vbuffer_alist.

I don't think we can/should refer to C level variables from Lisp
documentation.

This is a source comment, not public documentation, and the relevant
code relies on an undocumented C-level implementation detail (the use of
Vbuffer_alist as a completion collection in read-buffer) so I think the
comment (or something along those lines; feel free to suggest
improvements) is appropriate.

Nice, I consider your new project-switch-to-buffer as an accompanying
command with the existing project-find-file (that could get a keybinding too,
the most natural would be 'C-x p f').

Would you like to create a patch that adds a global keymap for project
related commands?
I've been putting it off myself. The question I've been considering:
Do we keep it in project.el or somewhere outside? Maybe the latter,
since project.el is also an ELPA package, and we generally don't want
packages to alter Emacs' key bindings right after installation.
OTOH, if the prefix is customizable, that can also be fine.

Hi Theodor,

Can you please tell why only file-bound buffers are included? I have
some buffers with inferior python process in each project, would be nice
to switch to them with project-switch-to-buffer.
Also consider to provide default value like:
(buffer-name (other-buffer (current-buffer)))
This way one can switch to recent project buffer with just RET, same way
as switch-to-buffer.
Thanks for your work!

Well, I tried a few different ways of including other buffers as well, but emacs seemed to want to include earlier used minibuffers and all sorts of 'junk'. I agree that these inferior processes should be interesting to include, though. I can try to find some way to filter out the cruft a bit better! Do you have a specific idea in mind to go from?

This seems smart! I'll look into that as well :) Thanks!

On the other hand, what do you think about this one?
Now you will get buffers such as '*xref*' and I assume your inferior buffers as well. Could you try this? I added your 'other-buffer' thing also for good measure :)

Much better!
Few more things:
- Check if other-buffer is passes the predicate function. The buffer
from another project must not be the default.
- Exclude the current buffer from the buffers list to switch to.
Thanks!

Perhaps a good idea is to follow the example of
internal-complete-buffer-except (called from read-buffer-to-switch).

Isn't it enough to check `(not (eq (cdr buffer) (current-buffer)))` in
the predicate function?

It should also filter out the buffers where the names start with
whitespace. Unless there are no other completions.

No, it shouldn't. read-buffer already shows normal buffers as
completions on TAB and shows hidden buffers as completions after SPC
is entered. See internal-complete-buffer.

Ah, you're right. internal-complete-buffer is used either way.

That's very cool! I was sitting right now doing something similar, but you beat me to it. Sorry for not getting to it faster - life happened :)
I was struggling a little with the default buffer part, which you solved by kinda not solving it. I was trying to determine in some way what buffer would be reasonable to offer as default value if that predicate fails. Maybe it is best to just return nil there as you do.
Maybe just one thing. Eli addressed the docstring in one of the other functions as being a little ambiguous. Maybe update it to something like:
"Switch to an open buffer in the current project."
In addition, maybe adding a small comment above the default value predicate, explaining the relation to the undocumentet structure used in this function. Or not, maybe it is clear enough given the preceeding comment.
Thank you for bringing this up - and fixing it!
Theo

FWIW, it is unclear what "open" means in this context, as it is not a
term commonly used to describe buffers. Possible alternatives include
whether it's displayed somewhere or buried, whether it's live or killed,
etc.

And it's not like any command is going to help you switch to a killed
buffer.
"Open" sounds like a tautology indeed.
Here's a option from me: "Switch to another buffer belonging to the
current project".
But personally, I think the current docstring is easy to understand already.

No problem at all.

Or we can pass the predicate function to the `other-buffer` function so
it will return only buffer from the current project too! We just need
to make `other-buffer` accept predicate first :)
> Thank you for bringing this up - and fixing it!
And thank you for the original command! One local function less ;)

Thanks! Pushed.
Something to consider: switch-to-buffer still allows you to choose the
current buffer. And the new command doesn't.
I'm not sure of the original logic behind this, though.

Furthermore, by not requiring a match, switch-to-buffer allows to create
buffers.

Theodor, can you please tell the reason why is REQUIRE-MATCH set to t in
the read-buffer call?

I believe Dmitry told me to, actually. I can see if I can find the mail. I’m fine with it being nil, as it was in the first patch.

Right.
Do you need this ability? I would imagine switch-to-buffer is always
available for that.

Well, I rarely use this ability of switch-to-buffer. I can't say I
really need this in project-switch-to-buffer.
But to keep consistency with switch-to-buffer, project-switch-to-buffer
should behave the same.
Also, in my understanding, match is should be required on e.g. killing
buffers when existing buffer is required. Because switch-to-buffer is
able to create buffers, I can't see the reason why
project-switch-to-buffer should require the match.

There are other differences, too. The arglist, for example.

To better protect from typos? It's not a very strong argument, of
course. But "just for consistency" isn't one either.

Well, NORECORD and FORCE-SAME-WINDOW can be passed to switch-to-buffer
easily if there is the need to.

How about "To be able to create buffers"? ;) This way there are no need
to use switch-to-buffer for those who will use project-switch-to-buffer
solely.
Imagine project-switch-to-buffer is in your muscle memory. You need to
perform additional steps to create the buffer (C-g C-x b
type-buffer-name-again) just because the project-switch-to-buffer can't
create buffers with no reason.

Everything can be added later. Adding new function arguments could be a
bit more problematic than a slight change in semantics like
REQUIRE-MATCH=nil, though.

All right. I'll change it to nil now.
Not sure I understand the passion behind your argument, though, since
you said you're not going to need this yourself. But perhaps I
misunderstood.

I'm rarely use this feature, but when I'll need it it's great that
`project-switch-to-buffer` support it.
