Having trouble with a keymap

[boozedog]

Any idea why the <leader>pv keymap below isn't working? It just puts me right into visual mode as soon as I type the v.

The telescope keymaps I set up are working fine for me.

    nixvim = {
      enable = true;
      viAlias = true;
      vimAlias = true;
      colorschemes.gruvbox.enable = true;
      globals.mapleader = " ";
      maps = {
        normal."<leader>pv" = {
          action = "vim.cmd.Ex";
        };
      };
      plugins = {
        lightline.enable = true;
        telescope = {
          enable = true;
          keymaps = {
            "<leader>pf" = "find_files";
            "<C-p>" = "git_files";
          };
        };
      };
    };

You can do it like this:

maps = {
  normal."<leader>pv" = {
    action = "<cmd>Ex<cr>";
  };
};

Indeed, the action you have set (vim.cmd.Ex) is in lua, so you can also do:

maps = {
  normal."<leader>pv" = {
    action = "vim.cmd.Ex";
    lua = true;
  };
};

This will write the action without quotes in the lua config.

That worked perfectly! Thanks @GaetanLepage
