PLUGIN SPEC *lazy.nvim-lazy.nvim-plugin-spec*
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Property Type Description
-------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------------
[1] string? Short plugin url. Will be expanded using
config.git.url_format
dir string? A directory pointing to a local plugin
url string? A custom git url where the plugin is hosted
name string? A custom name for the plugin used for the local
plugin directory and as the display name
dev boolean? When true, a local plugin directory will be used
instead. See config.dev
lazy boolean? When true, the plugin will only be loaded when
needed. Lazy-loaded plugins are automatically loaded
when their Lua modules are required, or when one of
the lazy-loading handlers triggers
enabled boolean? or fun():boolean When false, or if the function returns false, then
this plugin will not be included in the spec
2023-03-14 18:20:47 +08:00
cond boolean? or fun(LazyPlugin):boolean When false, or if the function returns false, then
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
this plugin will not be loaded. Useful to disable
some plugins in vscode, or firenvim for example.
dependencies LazySpec[] A list of plugin names or plugin specs that should
be loaded when the plugin loads. Dependencies are
always lazy-loaded unless specified otherwise. When
specifying a name, make sure the plugin spec has
been defined somewhere else.
init fun(LazyPlugin) init functions are always executed during startup
opts table or fun(LazyPlugin, opts:table) opts should be a table (will be merged with parent
specs), return a table (replaces parent specs) or
should change a table. The table will be passed to
the Plugin.config() function. Setting this value
will imply Plugin.config()
config fun(LazyPlugin, opts:table) or true config is executed when the plugin loads. The
default implementation will automatically run
2023-03-18 15:58:04 +08:00
require(MAIN).setup(opts). Lazy uses several
heuristics to determine the plugins MAIN module
automatically based on the plugins name. See also
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
opts. To use the default implementation without opts
set config to true.
2023-03-18 15:58:04 +08:00
main string? You can specify the main module to use for config()
and opts(), in case it can not be determined
automatically. See config()
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
build fun(LazyPlugin) or string or a list of build commands build is executed when a plugin is installed or
updated. If its a string it will be ran as a shell
command. When prefixed with it is a Neovim command.
You can also specify a list to executed multiple
build commands
branch string? Branch of the repository
tag string? Tag of the repository
commit string? Commit of the repository
version string? Version to use from the repository. Full Semver
ranges are supported
pin boolean? When true, this plugin will not be included in
updates
submodules boolean? When false, git submodules will not be fetched.
Defaults to true
event string? or string[] or Lazy-load on event. Events can be specified as
fun(self:LazyPlugin, event:string[]):string[] BufEnter or with a pattern like BufEnter .lua
cmd string? or string[] or Lazy-load on command
fun(self:LazyPlugin, cmd:string[]):string[]
ft string? or string[] or Lazy-load on filetype
fun(self:LazyPlugin, ft:string[]):string[]
keys string? or string[] or LazyKeys[] or Lazy-load on key mapping
fun(self:LazyPlugin, keys:string[]):(string \| LazyKeys)[]
module false? Do not automatically load this Lua module when its
required somewhere
priority number? Only useful for start plugins (lazy=false) to force
loading certain plugins first. Default priority is
50. Its recommended to set this to a high number
for colorschemes.

2022-12-18 21:29:46 +08:00
LAZY LOADING ~
**lazy.nvim** automagically lazy-loads Lua modules, so it is not needed to
2023-02-28 14:28:08 +08:00
specify `module=...` everywhere in your plugin specification. This means that
if you have a plugin `A` that is lazy-loaded and a plugin `B` that requires a
2022-12-18 21:29:46 +08:00
module of plugin `A`, then plugin `A` will be loaded on demand as expected.
2022-12-19 21:57:32 +08:00
If you dont want this behavior for a certain plugin, you can specify that
with `module=false`. You can then manually load the plugin with `:Lazy load
foobar.nvim`.
2022-12-20 04:06:18 +08:00
You can configure **lazy.nvim** to lazy-load all plugins by default with
`config.defaults.lazy = true`.
2022-12-18 21:29:46 +08:00
Additionally, you can also lazy-load on **events**, **commands**, **file
types** and **key mappings**.
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
Plugins will be lazy-loaded when one of the following is `true`
2022-12-18 21:29:46 +08:00
2023-02-28 14:28:08 +08:00
- Theplugin only exists as a dependency in your spec
- It has an `event`, `cmd`, `ft` or `keys` key
2022-12-18 21:29:46 +08:00
- `config.defaults.lazy == true`
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
COLORSCHEMES
2022-12-28 00:25:37 +08:00
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
Colorscheme plugins can be configured with `lazy=true`. The plugin will
automagically load when doing `colorscheme foobar`.
2022-12-28 00:25:37 +08:00
**NOTE:** since **start** plugins can possibly change existing highlight
groups, its important to make sure that your main **colorscheme** is loaded
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
first. To ensure this you can use the `priority=1000` field. **(see the
examples)**
2022-12-22 17:33:10 +08:00
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
LAZY KEY MAPPINGS
2022-12-22 17:33:10 +08:00
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
The `keys` property can be a `string` or `string[]` for simple normal-mode
mappings, or it can be a `LazyKeys` table with the following key-value pairs:
2022-12-22 17:33:10 +08:00
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
- **[1]**(`string`) lhs **(required)**
- **[2]**(`string|fun()`) rhs **(optional)**
- **mode**(`string|string[]`) mode **(optional, defaults to "n")**
2022-12-22 17:33:10 +08:00
- any other option valid for `vim.keymap.set`
Key mappings will load the plugin the first time they get executed.
When `[2]` is `nil`, then the real mapping has to be created by the `config()`
function.

VERSIONING ~
If you want to install a specific revision of a plugin, you can use `commit`,
`tag`, `branch`, `version`.
2022-12-20 04:06:18 +08:00
The `version` property supports Semver <https://semver.org/> ranges.

Any command can have a **bang** to make the command wait till it finished. For
example, if you want to sync lazy from the cmdline, you can use:
2022-12-30 16:18:51 +08:00
>shell
2022-12-22 05:28:58 +08:00
$ nvim --headless "+Lazy! sync" +qa

`opts` is a table with the following key-values:
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
- **wait**when true, then the call will wait till the operation completed
- **show**when false, the UI will not be shown
- **plugins**a list of plugin names to run the operation on
- **concurrency**limit the `number` of concurrently running tasks

**lazy.nvim** provides a statusline component that you can use to show the
number of pending updates. Make sure to enable `config.checker.enabled = true`

USER EVENTS ~
The following user events will be triggered:
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
- **LazyDone**when lazy has finished starting up and loaded your config
- **LazySync**after running sync
- **LazyInstall**after an install
- **LazyUpdate**after an update
- **LazyClean**after a clean
- **LazyCheck**after checking for updates
- **LazyLog**after running log
- **LazyReload**triggered by change detection after reloading plugin specs
- **VeryLazy**triggered after `LazyDone` and processing `VimEnter` auto commands
- **LazyVimStarted**triggered after `UIEnter` when `require("lazy").stats().startuptime` has been calculated.
2022-12-27 20:35:05 +08:00
Useful to update the startuptime on your dashboard.

LOCKFILE LAZY-LOCK.JSON *lazy.nvim-lazy.nvim-lockfile-lazy-lock.json*
2022-12-18 21:34:41 +08:00
After every **update**, the local lockfile is updated with the installed
revisions. It is recommended to have this file under version control.
If you use your Neovim config on multiple machines, using the lockfile, you can
ensure that the same version of every plugin is installed.
2022-12-23 14:51:44 +08:00
If you are on another machine, you can do `:Lazy restore`, to update all your
plugins to the version from the lockfile.

Great care has been taken to make the startup code (`lazy.core`) as efficient
2022-12-23 14:51:44 +08:00
as possible. During startup, all Lua files used before `VimEnter` or
2022-12-20 17:56:46 +08:00
`BufReadPre` are byte-compiled and cached, similar to what impatient.nvim
<https://github.com/lewis6991/impatient.nvim> does.
2022-12-20 18:40:52 +08:00
My config for example loads in about `11ms` with `93` plugins. I do a lot of
lazy-loading though :)
2022-12-20 17:56:46 +08:00
**lazy.nvim** comes with an advanced profiler `:Lazy profile` to help you
improve performance. The profiling view shows you why and how long it took to
load your plugins.

STARTUP SEQUENCE *lazy.nvim-lazy.nvim-startup-sequence*
2022-12-16 22:11:06 +08:00
**lazy.nvim** does **NOT** use Neovim packages and even disables plugin loading
completely (`vim.go.loadplugins = false`). It takes over the complete startup
sequence for more flexibility and better performance.
2022-12-18 18:44:05 +08:00
In practice this means that step 10 of |Neovim Initialization| is done by Lazy:
2023-02-28 14:28:08 +08:00
1. All the plugins `init()` functions are executed2. All plugins with `lazy=false` are loaded. This includes sourcing `/plugin` and `/ftdetect` files. (`/after` will not be sourced yet)3. All files from `/plugin` and `/ftdetect` directories in you rtp are sourced (excluding `/after`)4. All `/after/plugin` files are sourced (this includes `/after` from plugins)
2022-12-18 18:44:05 +08:00
Files from runtime directories are always sourced in alphabetical order.
2022-12-16 22:11:06 +08:00
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
STRUCTURING YOUR PLUGINS *lazy.nvim-lazy.nvim-structuring-your-plugins*
2022-12-20 04:06:18 +08:00
Some users may want to split their plugin specs in multiple files. Instead of
2022-12-23 14:51:44 +08:00
passing a spec table to `setup()`, you can use a Lua module. The specs from the
2022-12-25 21:31:44 +08:00
**module** and any top-level **sub-modules** will be merged together in the
final spec, so it is not needed to add `require` calls in your main plugin file
to the other files.
2022-12-20 04:06:18 +08:00
The benefits of using this approach:
2023-02-28 14:28:08 +08:00
- Simple to **add** new plugin specs. Just create a new file in your plugins module.
- Allows for **caching** of all your plugin specs. This becomes important if you have a lot of smaller plugin specs.
- Spec changes will automatically be **reloaded** when theyre updated, so the `:Lazy` UI is always up to date.
2022-12-20 04:06:18 +08:00
Example:
- `~/.config/nvim/init.lua`
>lua
require("lazy").setup("plugins")
<
2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
- `~/.config/nvim/lua/plugins.lua` or `~/.config/nvim/lua/plugins/init.lua` **(this file is optional)**
2022-12-20 04:06:18 +08:00
>lua
return {
"folke/neodev.nvim",
2023-01-18 15:35:12 +08:00
"folke/which-key.nvim",
{ "folke/neoconf.nvim", cmd = "Neoconf" },
2022-12-20 04:06:18 +08:00
}
<
2023-02-28 14:28:08 +08:00
- Any lua file in `~/.config/nvim/lua/plugins/.lua` will be automatically merged in the main plugin spec
2022-12-20 04:06:18 +08:00
2023-01-05 21:29:20 +08:00
For a real-life example, you can check LazyVim
2023-01-07 19:11:08 +08:00
<https://github.com/LazyVim/LazyVim> and more specifically:
2022-12-20 18:03:19 +08:00
2023-01-07 19:09:20 +08:00
- lazyvim.plugins <https://github.com/LazyVim/LazyVim/tree/main/lua/lazyvim/plugins> contains all the plugin specs that will be loaded

2023-02-20 15:31:46 +08:00
IMPORTING SPECS, CONFIG & OPTS ~
2023-01-08 22:02:50 +08:00
As part of a spec, you can add `import` statements to import additional plugin
modules. Both of the `setup()` calls are equivalent:
>lua
require("lazy").setup("plugins")
2023-02-28 14:28:08 +08:00
-- Same as:
2023-01-08 22:02:50 +08:00
require("lazy").setup({{import = "plugins"}})
<
2023-03-18 15:39:22 +08:00
To import multiple modules from a plugin, add additional specs for each import.
For example, to import LazyVim core plugins and an optional plugin:
>lua
require("lazy").setup({
spec = {
{ "LazyVim/LazyVim", import = "lazyvim.plugins" },
{ import = "lazyvim.plugins.extras.coding.copilot" },
}
)
<
2023-01-08 22:02:50 +08:00
When you import specs, you can override them by simply adding a spec for the
same plugin to your local specs, adding any keys you want to override / merge.
`opts`, `dependencies`, `cmd`, `event`, `ft` and `keys` are always merged with
the parent spec. Any other property will override the property from the parent
spec.

With packer `wants`, `requires` and `after` can be used to manage dependencies.
2023-02-28 14:28:08 +08:00
With lazy, this isnt needed for most of the Lua dependencies. They can be
2022-12-24 02:53:40 +08:00
installed just like normal plugins (even with `lazy=true`) and will be loaded
when other plugins need them. The `dependencies` key can be used to group those
required plugins with the one that requires them. The plugins which are added
as `dependencies` will always be lazy-loaded and loaded when the plugin is
loaded.
