I've tried this a few times over the past year, but I've always been put off by the lack of a `SPC-f-f` equivalent (helm-find-files). I filed a thoughtful issue [0] about this a while back, but one of devs pretty much closed it immediately.

Also, looks like `SPC-f-f` doesn't exist anymore in spacevim.

It looks like you want a non recursive file find with the ability to navigate up and down.

Denite lets you move up with U and down with <Enter>, and you can use a custom filter or source to only display files in the current directory I believe. You could configure denite to include the custom filter and mapping in the after function.

The ability to edit the full path... I honestly don't know of denite or unite provide enough support to do that, but Shougo or someone on https://vi.stackexchange.com/ might.

Anyway you can set that up then configure a custom command, but I'd note that directly emulating spacemacs isn't really what spacevim seems to be trying to do.

you need to load one fuzzy find layer. denite unite fzf or leaderf.
