Does this plugin work with autochdir?

[YousufSSyed]

I would like it so that if the buffer I switch to is inside a workspace directory, then it changes the working directory to the root, and if not then change to the directory to buffer's dir.

Does the auto_dir option in the config solve this for you?

    -- option to automatically activate workspace when changing directory not via this plugin
    auto_dir = false,

It doesn't work when I do this with nvim -u "repro.lua" containing vim.opt.autochdir = true

• Do :WorkspacesAdd in a directory
• Open a file in another directory (with :edit)
• Open another file in a subdirectory of the one you did :WorkspacesAdd on.
• :pwd shows the current working directory is not the one in workspaces.

-- LazyNvim Setup
local lazypath = vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/lazy/lazy.nvim"
if not (vim.uv or vim.loop).fs_stat(lazypath) then
  vim.fn.system({
    "git",
    "clone",
    "--filter=blob:none",
    "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git",
    "--branch=stable", -- latest stable release
    lazypath,
  })
end
vim.opt.rtp:prepend(lazypath)
require("lazy").setup(  {
    "natecraddock/workspaces.nvim"
})

vim.opt.autochdir = true

require("workspaces").setup({
    auto_dir = true,
    auto_open = true
})

I just pushed a new commit that adds a new option to set auto_dir to "autochdir". Can you try that to see if it fixes your issue?

I tried it with that but its not working for me. Does this repro lua work for you? There might be something wrong on my end. I checked the commit of workspaces.nvim on :Lazy and its on 55a1eb6.

  })
end

require("lazy").setup(  {
    "natecraddock/workspaces.nvim"

vim.opt.autochdir = true

require("workspaces").setup({
    auto_dir = "autochdir",
    auto_open = true
