# Introduction
|
|
|
|
This is my Neovim configuration for all the platforms I use. `init.vim` is for
|
|
terminal Neovim and `ginit.vim` is for neovim-qt on Windows.
|
|
|
|
# Install
|
|
|
|
## Linux
|
|
|
|
Just follow the official guide and download the `appimage` from the [release
|
|
page](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases/nightly).
|
|
|
|
For some Linux system, you may not be able to run the appimage. You can
|
|
directly download the tar ball from
|
|
[here](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases/download/nightly/nvim-linux64.tar.gz)
|
|
and extract it.
|
|
|
|
## Windows
|
|
|
|
First, install [chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/install). Then you can
|
|
install neovim easily with
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# install latest version of neovim
|
|
# choco install neovim --pre
|
|
|
|
choco install neovim
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or you can download the latest release from GitHub and extract it.
|
|
|
|
## Mac
|
|
|
|
It is recommended to install neovim via [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/). Simply
|
|
run the following command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# if you want to install latest version of neovim
|
|
# brew install --HEAD neovim
|
|
|
|
brew install neovim
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After Neovim installation, you may need to add the directory where the neovim
|
|
executable (`nvim` on Linux and Mac, `nvim.exe` on Windows) resides to your
|
|
`PATH`.
|
|
|
|
Make sure that you can call `nvim` from the command line.
|
|
|
|
# Other tools to install
|
|
|
|
## Python
|
|
|
|
Neovim supports both Python2 and Python 3. But python 3 is preferable. Neovim
|
|
will automatically detect the Python version you use.
|
|
|
|
## pynvim
|
|
|
|
Neovim relies on [pynvim](https://github.com/neovim/pynvim) to communiate with
|
|
plugins which uses its Python binding.
|
|
|
|
## Git
|
|
|
|
Git is used by plugin managers to download plugins from Github or other Git
|
|
repositories.
|
|
|
|
Since Git is usually pre-installed on Linux and Mac, you do not need to worry
|
|
if you are using these two platforms. For Windows, install [Git for
|
|
Windows](https://git-scm.com/download/win) and make sure you can call `git`
|
|
from command line.
|
|
|
|
## ctags
|
|
|
|
In order to tags related plugins such as
|
|
[tagbar](/github.com/majutsushi/tagbar) and
|
|
[gutentags](https://github.com/ludovicchabant/vim-gutentags), you need to a
|
|
ctags distribution. Universal ctags is prefered.
|
|
|
|
To insall ctags on Mac, [use
|
|
Homebrew](https://github.com/universal-ctags/homebrew-universal-ctags). To
|
|
install it Windows, [use
|
|
chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/packages/universal-ctags):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
choco install universal-ctags
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To install it on Linux, you need to build it yourself. See
|
|
[here](https://askubuntu.com/questions/796408/installing-and-using-universal-ctags-instead-of-exuberant-ctags/836521#836521).
|
|
Set its PATH properly and make sure you can call `ctags` from command line.
|
|
|
|
## Ripgrep
|
|
|
|
Ripgrep is fast grep tool available for both Linux, Windows and Mac. It is used
|
|
several greping plugins for Vim.
|
|
|
|
For Windows and Mac, you can install via chocolatey and homebrew. For Linux,
|
|
you can download from the [release
|
|
page](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/releases) and install it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## linters
|
|
|
|
Based on your programming languages, you may need to install various linters.
|
|
|
|
+ Python: [pylint](https://github.com/PyCQA/pylint) and
|
|
[flake8](https://github.com/PyCQA/flake8).
|
|
+ Vim script: [vint](https://github.com/Kuniwak/vint) (You may need to install
|
|
the pre-release versions because of [this issue](https://github.com/Kuniwak/vint/issues/290)).
|
|
|
|
For other linters, please consult the linting plugin documentation. For Neomake
|
|
(which is the lint plugin I use), a list of makers (i.e., linters) for
|
|
different languages is listed
|
|
[here](https://github.com/neomake/neomake/wiki/Makers).
|
|
|
|
# settings
|
|
|
|
## Where to put the configuration file
|
|
|
|
On Windows, put it under `$HOME/AppData/Local/nvim`[^1]. On Linux and Mac, put
|
|
it under `~/.config/nvim`.
|
|
|
|
## Make deoplete work
|
|
|
|
To make deoplete work, you have to set the correct value for
|
|
`g:python3_host_prog`. You should set it to the full path to your Python3
|
|
executable. Find this setting in this `init.vim` and change it in accordance
|
|
with your system.
