How to map Emacs Evil keys to Dired Plus

I want to bind my h and l keys to diredp-up-directory-reuse-dir-buffer and diredp-find-file-reuse-dir-buffer respectively. I have the following code in my .emacs file:

(require 'dired+)
(toggle-diredp-find-file-reuse-dir 1)
(eval-after-load 'dired
  '(evil-define-key 'normal dired-mode-map
     (kbd "h") 'diredp-up-directory-reuse-dir-buffer
     (kbd "l") 'diredp-find-file-reuse-dir-buffer)
  )

But this is not working for me. There is no error message when I launch emacs. Can someone help me? Thanks.

Solution

  • It was a silly mistake. The Evil definitions with evil-define-key were being done before the (evil-mode 1) line.
