illu.vim

TODO: Add instruction for eslint.

TODO: Add instruction for 'Hack NF Regular 11'.

This is my neovim configuration. Importantly, this config will not work with vim because it includes plugins that rely on asnyc functionality, for instance.

This config primarily focuses on:

• Webdevelopment with javascript, typescript, jsx, (s)css, and html.
• Python development
• Text editing with markdown and latex
• Source code management with git
• Seamless integration with tmux
• Editing tricks (autoclose tags, etc.)
• Intellisense features like completion, signatures, snippets, linting

Dependencies

This neovim config relies on the following dependencies:

• vim-plug: Manage plugins in vim
• node and yarn: Two javascript package managers used to install additional dependencies for coc.vim and other plugins
• fzf: Fuzzy file finder
• meslo: Terminal font patched with nerd fonts and powerline (airline)
• ripgrep: Quicker grepping with regex, used for filtering fzf
• ctags: Generate tags for every language
• ctags for javascript: Javascript-specific tags
• texlive and latexmk: Compile and view latex files
• eslint: Javascript linting

Auto-Installation

TL;DR: Using Debian-based system? Copy + paste this in a terminal to auto install:

curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iLLucionist/illu.vim/master/install.sh | sh

Manual Installation

If not using Debian-based system, follow these steps and adjust based on your distro where necessary:

1. Clone repo into ~/.config/nvim and install vim-plug:

mkdir ~/.config/nvim; git clone https://github.com/illucionist/illu.vim ~/.config/nvim/illu.vim; ln -s ~/.config/nvim/illu.vim/init.vim ~/.config/nvim/init.vim; ln -s ~/.config/nvim/illu.vim/coc-settings.json ~/.config/nvim/coc-settings.json; curl -fLo ~/.local/share/nvim/site/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim

2. Install fzf for fuzzy file finding:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.git ~/.fzf; ~/.fzf/install

3. Install Meslo font with airline and nerd fonts support and rebuild font cache:

mkdir ~/.fonts; wget https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases/download/v2.0.0/Meslo.zip -O ~/meslo.zip; unzip ~/meslo.zip -d ~/.fonts; rm ~/meslo.zip; fc-cache -f -v; gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface monospace-font-name 'MesloLGM NF 11'

4. Install ripgrep, which is used in fzf to filter lists

If you are on an debian-based system:

curl -LO https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/releases/download/11.0.1/ripgrep_11.0.1_amd64.deb; sudo dpkg -i ripgrep_11.0.1_amd64.deb

5. Install yarn, which is used to install coc.vim-plugins:

If you are on a debian-based system:

curl -sS https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -; echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list; sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install yarn

6. Make sure nodejs is installed, which coc.vim relies on:

sudo curl -sL install-node.now.sh/lts | sudo bash

7. Make sure ctags is installed for coc.vim and vim-gutentags:

If you are on a debian-based system:

sudo apt-get install exuberant-ctags

8. Install ctags for javascript:

git clone https://github.com/romainl/ctags-patterns-for-javascript.git ~/ctags-patterns-for-javascript; ln -s ~/ctags-patterns-for-javascript/ctagsrc ~/.ctags

9. Install latex for tex support:

If you are on a debian-based system:

sudo apt-get install texlive latexmk okular

10. Restart your terminal, open nvim, and type (including \ = leader key):

\pi

This will install plugins and do all the work.

Exit nvim and start again, and voila! That should be all!

Note on dependencies

Many distro's do not have certain packages in their repos. Some rolling release distros, however, do, which makes it easier to install. For instance, on void linux the installation can be condensed and simplified into:

1. Clone repo (see above)

2. Install packages:

sudo xbps-install fzf ripgrep yarn nodejs ctags texlive okular neovim
neovim-remote xdo curl wget unzip git

3. Install terminal font with nerd font support (see above)

4. Install javascript ctags (see above)

5. Specific to void linux: texlive installs additional packages via tlmgr, thus latexmk still needs to be installed:

sudo /opt/texlive/2019/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr install latexmk

6. Restart terminal, start neovim and hit keycombo \pi to install plugins. Close and restart neovim and you are all set!
