NVIM config

Goals:

• Works with or without nix
• LSP integration with the current project's settings if available

Running

With Nix

nix run "."

Without Nix

• Must have all required programs installed and available on path
  • neovim >= 0.5
  • Evertying listed in flake.nix runtime dependencies variable near the top of the file
    • These must be available on the path
    • Treesitter/Lazy/Mason will install all other requirements needed on other systems

git clone https://github.com/RingOfStorms/nvim ~/.config/nvim
nvim --headless "+Lazy! sync" +qa

Backup existing config:

DATE=$(date +"%Y%m%d")
mv ~/.config/nvim ~/.config/nvim_$DATE.bak
mv ~/.local/share/nvim ~/.local/share/nvim_$DATE.bak
mv ~/.local/state/nvim ~/.local/state/nvim_$DATE.bak

or remove existing config:

rm -rf ~/.config/nvim 
rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim
rm -rf ~/.local/state/nvim 

NOTES/TODOS

• Checkout cargo-bloat, cargo-cache, cargo-outdated - memcache sccache

• For scratches, just make an input box for custom extension rather than predefined list

• for find files, ignore git, capital F for find all

• blacklist for undofile? .age files... etc

• TODO learn more about augroup in autocommands.

• plugins to install:

  • rmagatti/auto-session - session management
