nvimdev.nvim

Provides some nicities for hacking on Neovim:

• Auto-detect Neovim source tree and :cd to the root.
• Fast linting for C sources (clint.py and uncrustify).
  • Uses vim.diagnostic
• Filetype settings appropriate for Neovim's source code.
• Hook into vim-projectionist: configure alternate files for the ".vim-src" directory, and a command to diff against the same file in Vim.
• Add commands NvimTestRun and NvimTestClear for running functional tests directly in the buffer.

Why?

Neovim has a pretty large code base and is full of Vim's rich and mysterious history. I have little knowledge of either and wrote a script to help me get around and automate some things. People have shown interest in using it, so it's now a plugin that will make maintenance easier.

Installation

😑

Requirements

• Python 3
• plenary.nvim

Config

g:nvimdev_auto_cd (default 1)

Automatically :cd to the Neovim root after init.

Commands
