Just another opinionated, visually appealing Neovim IDE.
Configured for Windows, supports LaTeX, Python, Lua, C#, HTML, CSS, and Javascript.
The following instructions are for Windows (powershell). An admin prompt is required.
-
Install chocolatey.
Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))
-
Install main dependencies.
choco install -y git.install --params "/GitAndUnixToolsOnPath /NoGitLfs /SChannel /NoShellIntegration"; choco install -y neovim python SumatraPDF.install miktex.install; # Needed for various plugins choco install -y universal-ctags strawberryperl make SQLite ripgrep fd golang; refreshenv; exit
-
Install python dependencies.
pip install pynvim neovim-remote
-
Clone the repository and open nvim-qt or nvim.
For fresh installation:
git clone https://github.com/Neelfrost/nvim-config.git "$HOME\Appdata\Local\nvim"; nvim-qt.exe
For existing config:
ren "$HOME\Appdata\Local\nvim" 'nvim-old'; git clone https://github.com/Neelfrost/nvim-config.git "$HOME\Appdata\Local\nvim"; nvim-qt.exe
Formatting (latexindent)
latexindent is now included with miktex, so downloading it separately is no longer necessary. Moreover, null-ls is pre-configured to run latexindent on save for tex files. Global formatting rules can be changed by:
-
Creating
$HOME/indentconfig.yaml
:paths: - C:\Users\<username>\defaultSettings.yaml
-
Creating
$HOME/defaultSettings.yaml
, followed by copying and overriding defaultSettings.
For further reading refer: docs.
To launch SumatraPDF using VimTeX (\lv), ensure SumatraPDF.exe
is added to environment path.
Set-ItemProperty -Path 'Registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment' -Name path -Value $((Get-ItemProperty -Path 'Registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment' -Name path).path + ";" + "$HOME\AppData\Local\SumatraPDF" + ";"); refreshenv; exit
For inverse search, open SumatraPDF then go to Settings -> Options and set inverse search command-line to:
cmd /c start /min nvim --headless -c "PackerLoad vimtex" -c "VimtexInverseSearch %l '%f'"
