Neovim Lua Rust Template

A template for creating Neovim plugins in Lua with an accompanying Rust library.

Getting Started

Ensure you have lazydev.nvim installed if you're missing autocompletion in Lua files. Rename all instances of your-plugin to the name of your plugin.

mv lua/your-plugin lua/new-name

rg -l 'your-plugin' | xargs sed -i 's/your-plugin/new-name/g'
rg -l 'your_plugin' | xargs sed -i 's/your_plugin/new_name/g'

rg -l 'your-username' | xargs sed -i 's/your-username/new-username/g'

Installation

Development

{
  'your-username/your-plugin',

  -- see lazy.nvim docs (`config.dev`): https://lazy.folke.io/configuration
  dev = true,

  -- optional, see `lua/your-plugin/init.lua`
  dependencies = 'saghen/blink.download',

  build = 'cargo build --release',
  opts = {}
}

Stable

{
  'your-username/your-plugin',
  version = '*', -- only required with prebuilt binaries

  -- optional, see `lua/your-plugin/init.lua`
  -- download prebuilt binaries, from github releases, and setup `cpath`
  dependencies = 'saghen/blink.download',
  -- OR build from source
  build = 'cargo build --release',

  opts = {}
}
