Single-file Neovim configuration

Pre-requisites

• Neovim 12 or newer
• Depending on the plugins you enable, additional dependencies may be required; all requirements are documented in init.lua

Features

• The entire configuration is defined in init.lua
• Uses the built-in vim.pack plugin manager
• Enable or disable plugins directly in the vim.pack.add() section of init.lua by commenting or un-commenting them
• Each plugin is configured only when it is loaded, so removing unused ones will not affect the rest of the setup
• Any required dependencies are documented

Installation

Clone this configuration into ~/.config/nvim (make sure to back up your existing one first)

git clone https://github.com/vsoftco/nvim-pack ~/.config/nvim

then launch Neovim

nvim

This configuration provides the following custom commands as wrappers around vim.pack:

• :PackUpdate - updates plugins
• :PackClean- removes unused plugins from the disk
• :PackSync - pin plugins to the version recorded in nvim-pack-lock.json

Test configuration (optional)

To try this configuration without affecting your current setup, clone it into a separate directory under ~/.config, for example

git clone https://github.com/vsoftco/nvim-pack ~/.config/nvim-test

Then start Neovim with

NVIM_APPNAME=nvim-test nvim
