🐜 An ecosystem of Vim/Neovim which allows developers to write cross-platform plugins in Deno

Denops
^{An ecosystem of Vim/Neovim which allows developers to write plugins in Deno.}

Quick start

First of all, install the latest Deno. See Deno's official manual for details.

Note that deno command need to be executable from Vim/Neovim. You can confirm it by exepath() function in Vim/Neovim like below:

:echo exepath('deno')
/usr/local/bin/deno

Or specify an absolute path to g:denops#deno variable (See :help g:denops#deno.)

Once you got deno to work, install vim-denops/denops.vim as a general Vim plugin. For example, the following uses vim-plug:

Plug 'vim-denops/denops.vim'
Plug 'vim-denops/denops-helloworld.vim'

Then you can confirm if denops is working properly by executing DenopsHello command like:

:DenopsHello
Hello

Once you've confirmed that denops is working, you can remove vim-denops/denops-helloworld.vim.

Documentations

To learn how to write Vim/Neovim plugins by denops, see Denops Documentation or denops.vim Wiki.

Versioning

Before v1.10.0, we defined that the version of denops.vim indicates that code versions of the entire repository. However, we changed this assumption from version v1.10.0. Now we defined the version of denops.vim indicates the version of the code in the denops/@denops directory that is published to deno.land as denops_core. That's why we won't bump versions when there are no changes on code in that directory.

Developpers

Denops is mainly developped by members of vim-jp.

Inspired by

This ecosystem is strongly inspired by coc.nvim which allows developers to write Vim/Neovim plugin in Node.js.
