The config is complete but still work in progress as I am new to lua and slowly learning vim stuffs. I'll keep adding new features like snippets etc and clean the config , make neovim (cli version) as functional as an IDE while being eyecandy. Pull requests are welcome. # Screenshots -

# Very Useful lua plugins used in my config - #### lspkind-nvim This tiny plugin adds vscode-like pictograms to neovim built-in lsp completion items :

#### nvim-tree.lua fast file tree :

### telescope-nvim - A fuzzy file finder, picker, sorter, previewer and much more:

### indent-blankline.nvim - adds indentline : using indenLine plugin on left and blanklineNvim on right ### galaxyline - fastest statusline plugin I've used so far:

### gitsigns.nvim - Shows git signs of a repo on the signcolumn to indicate diffs/changes etc (needs plenary.nvim)

### nvim-bufferline.lua - As a top bufferline like thing which lets me handle tabs like switching, closing tabs.

### nvim-web-devicons - Lua fork of vim devicons which lets me change icons of filetypes

### nvim-treesitter Better syntax highlighting for programming languages ( my config just has html,css,js support for now ). without / with Treesitter : ### nvim-base16 - contains a collection of all base16 themes for vim , plugin written in lua (comparison of base16-vim and nvim-base16): nvim-base16 doesnt even take time to load unlike base16-vim which was eating half of the loadup time! ( the below screenshot was taken and tested on my old pentium laptop , so results might differ)

(neovim loads pretty fast on ssds)

# Config structure ``` nvim ├──init.lua └──lua └──anything.lua ``` - The init.lua is used instead of init.vim. - The lua folder contains modules ( config files ) , in the example above anything.lua file in lua folder could be considered as a module. - The anything.lua file is supposed to have any neovim config written in lua , its like splitting the overall config into small bits and make it more organized , like one module for highlights and colors , another one for statusline and so on!. - To load or source that "anything" module (like making it load with init.lua ) ,add this is in init.lua : require "anything". # Features - File navigation with Nvimtree - mouse works - managing tabs with bufferline - autosave - icons on nvimtree , telescope , bufferline/statusline and almost everywhere! with nvim-web-devicons - minimal status line ( galaxyline) - gitsigns (colored bars in my config) - using nvim-lsp - nvim-lspconfig for nvim-lps configuration - nvim-compe for autocompletion - lspkind to show pictograms on autocompletion items - telescope for file finding , picking , previewing (files and even images) - nvim-treesitter for syntax highlighting - nvim-autopairs , for autolosing braces and stuffs - neoformat for prettifying / formatting code - packer.nvim as package manager - indent-blankline.Nvim for indentlines - smooth scrolling - Snip support from VSCode through vsnip supporting custom and predefined snips (friendly-snippets) # Guides to migrate your nvim configs to init.lua - - https://github.com/nanotee/nvim-lua-guide - https://alpha2phi.medium.com/neovim-init-lua-e80f4f136030 - https://oroques.dev/notes/neovim-init/ - https://icyphox.sh/blog/nvim-lua/ - https://github.com/rafamadriz/friendly-snippets/wiki # Clone my setup - - Install neovim-nightly , also use a nerdfont on your terminal. - Use these [colors](https://github.com/siduck76/dotfiles/blob/master/thinkpad/.Xresources) for your terminal , Its in xresources format so it'd would be easier to use a terminal that supports xresources like st , urxvt , xterm , My [st build](https://github.com/siduck76/st). - run the install.sh (this might work only on nix systems),this opens neovim (press enter or y to skip the errors , the errors will only show once). - Install ripgrep , fd , ueberzug for telescope media extension to work. - Manual installation , incase the install.sh doesnt work for you : - Install packer.nvim ``` git clone https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim\ ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/packer/start/packer.nvim ``` - copy lua folder and init.lua into ~/.config/nvim - Open neovim and install all plugins , :PackerInstall (let treesitter install all its extensionsm - Install language servers and prettier ( for autocompletion etc and code formatting , nodejs should be installed too!) , this usually depends on the language support you want to add in your neovim config. ``` npm config set prefix=~/.node_modules npm install -g vscode-html-languageserver-bin typescript typescript-language-server vscode-css-languageserver-bin prettier (ADD ~/.node_modules at your PATH) ``` To setup any language server , follow this guide https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/blob/master/CONFIG.md and search up the needed LSP. For example if I needed clangd's lsp server : I'd install it first and add its setup line : `` -- in /lua/nvim-lspconfig/lua.lua file require'lspconfig'.clangd.setup{} `` # Default Mappings space is the **leader** key. - Opening terminals! - Ctrl l Open terminal vertically over right - Ctrl x Open terminal horizontally below the current window - **File tree (nvim-tree)** - Ctrl n toggle neovim tree - Shift h show hidden files (use these keybinds when cursor's in the filetree, same for the keybinds below). - Ctrl + v open files in vertical split - Ctrl + x open files in horizontal split - **Toggling stuffs** - leader + n toggle line number - leader + z toggle truezen.nvim's Ataraxis mode - leader + m toggle truezen.nvim's minimalistic mode - **Copy text** - Ctrl a copies everything in the current file - select any text + y copies the selected text - **Telescope** - leader + f b open all buffers - leader + f f find files in the current DIR - leader + f o open recently edited files - leader + f h opens up a help page like thing - Ctrl + v open files in vertical split - Ctrl + x open files in horizontal split - **Formatting code** - leader + f m formats or beautifies the code in current window via neoformat (currently only html ,css , js can be formatted . To be able to use this keybind you need to install the formatter locally for your language , in my case prettier was required only so I installed it. check (this)[https://github.com/sbdchd/neoformat]. - **Neoscroll** - ``, ``, ``, ``, `` and `` : Smooth scrolling for window movement commands. - **Managing tabs with bufferline!** - Shift l or s cycle through opened tabs - Shift d close current tab - Shift b open new tab # TODO - Make the statusline more elegant. - Add more themes. # Contact - - My linux / unix related ricing community: https://t.me/DE_WM (telegram) - Me: @siduck (telegram)
