# Neovim Configuration Flake
|
|
|
|
This is the Neovim configuration for all my NixOS and Nix enabled systems (such as with nix-darwin on macOS).
|
|
It aims to be minimal and utilitarian; it forgoes many blingful features like status lines, sidebars, or fancy UI enhancements
|
|
in favor of native (neo)Vim, while still having everything useful you'd expect, like LSPs, file explorer (`yazi`), completions,
|
|
advanced language tools, and QoL enhancements.
|
|
|
|
It uses the [Nixvim](https://nix-community.github.io/nixvim/) project under the hood to declaratively
|
|
configure Neovim and its plugins, and installs some LSPs and other tools needed by it (like `yazi`, `fd`, etc).
|
|
|
|
It simply outputs a package which provides the binary `nvim`. It can be called just like the regular `nvim` binary, except it bundles
|
|
all of my custom configuration and their dependencies with the power of Nix. An entirely self-contained, reproducible, purely functional text editor. Amazing.
|
|
|
|
Feel free to fork or copy the config to use yourself. It's free in the [public domain](./LICENSE).
|
|
|
|
Thanks to [this gist](https://gist.github.com/siph/288b7c6b5f68a1902d28aebc95fde4c5) for showing me how to
|
|
build a Nixvim configuration as a standalone Nix package.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
You can test drive my config in just one line (if you have Nix, of course):
|
|
```sh
|
|
nix run 'github:youwen5/neovim-flake' --extra-experimental-features flakes --extra-experimental-features nix-command
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If for some reason, you want to install it permanently, add it to your flake inputs,
|
|
and install the package in the usual way:
|
|
|
|
```nix
|
|
# flake.nix
|
|
{
|
|
description = "Your system configuration flake.";
|
|
|
|
inputs = {
|
|
# -- snip --
|
|
custom-neovim.url = "github:youwen5/neovim-flake";
|
|
};
|
|
# -- snip --
|
|
};
|
|
# -- snip --
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```nix
|
|
# Wherever you install packages for your system or user:
|
|
|
|
{inputs, system, ...}:
|
|
{
|
|
environment.systemPackages = [
|
|
inputs.custom-neovim.packages.${system}.default
|
|
# supported systems: x86_64-linux, aarch64-linux, x86_64-darwin, aarch64-darwin
|
|
];
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> [!WARNING]
|
|
> This package will add the symlinks `vim -> nvim` and `vi -> nvim` so it will conflict with
|
|
> `pkgs.vim` and any programs installing binaries called `vim` or `vi`. You must remove existing
|
|
> Neovim and Vim packages to install this.
