Try it out
Thanks to the portability of Nix, you can try out nvf without actually installing it to your machine. Below are the commands you may run to try out different configurations provided by this flake. As of v0.5, two specialized configurations are provided:
- Nix - Nix language server + simple utility plugins
- Maximal - Variable language servers + utility and decorative plugins
You may try out any of the provided configurations using the nix run
command
on a system where Nix is installed.
$ cachix use nvf # Optional: it'll save you CPU resources and time
$ nix run github:notashelf/nvf#nix # will run the default minimal configuration
Do keep in mind that this is susceptible to garbage collection meaning it will be removed from your Nix store once you garbage collect.
Using Prebuilt Configs
$ nix run github:notashelf/nvf#nix
$ nix run github:notashelf/nvf#maximal
Available Configs
Nix
Nix
configuration by default provides LSP/diagnostic support for Nix alongside
a set of visual and functional plugins. By running nix run .#
, which is the
default package, you will build Neovim with this config.
Maximal
Maximal
is the ultimate configuration that will enable support for more
commonly used language as well as additional complementary plugins. Keep in
mind, however, that this will pull a lot of dependencies.
::: {.tip}
You are strongly recommended to use the binary cache if you would like to try the Maximal configuration.
