nvim-tabline's Introduction

nvim-tabline

A minimal Tabline plugin for Neovim, written in Lua. It is basically a drop-in replacement for tabline.vim but with a few differences.

Installation

With vim-plug:

Plug 'crispgm/nvim-tabline'

With packer.nvim:

use({
    'crispgm/nvim-tabline',
    config = function()
        require('tabline').setup({})
    end,
})

Configuration

require('tabline').setup({})

Defaults

require('tabline').setup({
    show_index = true,        -- show tab index
    show_modify = true,       -- show buffer modification indicator
    modify_indicator = '[+]', -- modify indicator
    no_name = '[No name]',    -- no name buffer name
})

Mappings

Vim's tabpage commands are powerful enough, :help tabpage for details. If you need switch between tabs, here is a great tutorial.

Highlights

The highlighting of the tab pages line follows vim settings. See :help setting-tabline for details.

Differences

nvim-tabline is not exactly a Lua translation. There are some differences for configuration:

Control whether to display tab number (show_index) and buffer modification indicator (show_modify)
Customize modify indicator and no name buffer name
Close button (g:tablineclosebutton) is not supported
