t1gu1/lvim-config

This is my personal Lunar Vim config optimised to develop on node / typescript / javascript and react project

Lunar Vim config

Gradually learn with a keymaps menu (Default Vim behavior/keyMaps exclude from this menu)

Why

• Easier to learn with the menu that show all keymaps
• I love saving my config on the cloud to get it fast if I change OS or works on another PC.
• Eslint and prettier are setup correctly to works with typescript and react (auto format on save works)
• Few tweaks that make everything easier or remove bugs
• Few usefull plugin added and already mapped to control for you
• LunarVim is easy and fast to setup, you'll spare a really good time to simply git clone that config (Easier to remove or edit than add new stuff)
• Add some missing to treesitter

Plugin added

Most of the plugins are listed hehere: https://www.lunarvim.org/docs/plugins/extra-plugins

• git-blame
• nvim-specter
• trouble
• lsp_signature <- so nice
• goto-preview <- sooo nice
• Harpoon <- To be Blazingly fast
• Mini sourround
• package-info
• cutlass <- Better Telescope view/preview!

P.S. Almost everything is accesible if you do <leader> and you wait 2 seconds. (popup will show you shortcuts)

How to setup

On Mac I recommand to use Kitty terminal. It's faster and display things correctly.

• Install and use Kitty Terminal https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/binary/ (On Linux you could skip that, but if you have visual problems, get it)
• Install neoVim 8.0+ https://github.com/neovim/neovim/wiki/Installing-Neovim
• Install LunarVim on top of it https://www.lunarvim.org/docs/installation (Nightly <- !Important! to use the latest master branch)
• Then execute that blazingly fast command to replace the config: rm -R ~/.config/lvim && git clone [email protected]:t1gu1/lvim-config.git ~/.config/lvim
• Install ripgrep it will ignore files in you .ignore and things like that
• Install The nerds-fonts include in this repo (Be sure to use it in your terminal font config to get icons & etc)
• When you launch lvim the first time install the packer plugins. (Be on the master branch of lvim before) (I should provide the command line for that)
• Install your Mason things with :Mason
• Close lvim and open it again. Now do a :checkhealth to check if you have some issues/missing dependency from your OS.
• If you fix an issue close lvim before another :checkhealth

Mason things I personally install

Issue I got with a checkhealth or other that can fix easly

• Install wget with brew
• :TSUpdate vim
• :TSUpdate lua
• :TSUpdate markdown (etc, it will show you the list)
• On mac use Kitty terminal (Linux is perfect on a base terminal)

Basic nice commands

• First, you should learn your basic Vim keybind https://devhints.io/vim
  • P.S. d and dd are modified to just remove without replacing the yank y buffer. (cutlass plugin)
  • <leader>d will act as the defaut d like a "cut".
• Then take a look of LunarVim keybind https://www.lunarvim.org/docs/keybind-overview

P.S. I'll repeat some commands, but it feel like it's the nice to know if you wanna try fast

• <leader>o will open the current directory file in your OS GUI
• <leader>h will open the harpoon options menu
• <leader> Alone, after few seconds, will display a modal with a lot of commands in it
• <cr>| will display terminal
• 2<cr>| will display terminal number 2
• /wordToSearch will highlight words in you file
• :%s/wordToReplace/wordThatWillReplace live search and replace in the current file
• <leader>r will open the global search and replace
  • n and N will move you to the next or previous word
• <cr>h <cr>l <cr>j <cr>k will make you move to between windows (Example, if a code file is open and the file explorer is open)
• <leader>bb will make you move to you previous tab
• <leader>bn will make you move to the next tab
• <cr>s will save/write you file

Commands in nvimTree

• a Create a new file or folder (By adding / to the path, it will be a folder)
• x to files and folder you want to move then press p to the place you want move/paste them
• r Rename a file or folder

Legend

• <leader> = spacing bar
• <cr> = ctrl
• | is at the same place where the backslash is \ (Just to say it's really a caracter)

Nice to know

• The things that determine "A Project" is if a ".git folder exist".
• There is an auto save (Not sure if the time delay really works)
• d and dd are modified to just remove without replacing the yank y value. (cutlass plugin)
• Harpoon plugin is a sweet plugin <leader>h will show you more.
• You can modify everything if you want.

What I would love to add

• Add a one line command to install all require packages (like ripgrep) on mac and Linux
• Add command line to switch to the master brach of LunarVim or a specefic commit id
• (⚠️ The complexity for the result isn't worth for now) Something to preview or inline png/svg images
• (✅ Done) harpoon plugin
