1. 📰 What’s new?                           *lazy.nvim-📰-what’s-new?*


11.X                                       *lazy.nvim-📰-what’s-new?-11.x*

- **New Website**: There’s a whole new website with a fresh look and improved
    documentation. Check it out at <https://lazy.folke.io>. The GitHub `README.md`
    has been updated to point to the new website. The `vimdoc` contains all the
    information that is available on the website.
- **Spec Resolution & Merging**: the code that resolves a final spec from a
    plugin’s fragments has been rewritten. This should be a tiny bit faster, but
    more importantly, fixes some issues and is easier to maintain.
- Packages <https://lazy.folke.io/packages> can now specify their dependencies
    and configuration using one of:
    - **Lazy**: `lazy.lua` file
    - **Rockspec**: luarocks <https://luarocks.org/> `*-scm-1.rockspec` file <https://github.com/luarocks/luarocks/wiki/Rockspec-format>
    - **Packspec**: `pkg.json` (experimental, since the format <https://github.com/neovim/packspec/issues/41> is not quite there yet)
    Related _lazy.nvim_ options:
    >lua
        {
          pkg = {
            enabled = true,
            cache = vim.fn.stdpath("state") .. "/lazy/pkg-cache.lua",
            -- the first package source that is found for a plugin will be used.
            sources = {
              "lazy",
              "rockspec",
              "packspec",
            },
          },
          rocks = {
            root = vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/lazy-rocks",
            server = "https://nvim-neorocks.github.io/rocks-binaries/",
          },
        }
    <
- Installing neorg <https://github.com/nvim-neorg/neorg> is now as simple as:
    >lua
        { "nvim-neorg/neorg", opts = {} }
    <
- Packages are not limited to just Neovim plugins. You can install any
    **luarocks** package, like:
    >lua
        { "https://github.com/lubyk/yaml" }
    <
    Luarocks packages without a `/lua` directory are never lazy-loaded, since
    it’s just a library.
- `build` functions or `*.lua` build files (like `build.lua`) now run
    asynchronously. You can use `coroutine.yield(status_msg)` to show progress.
    Yielding will also schedule the next `resume` to run in the next tick, so you
    can do long-running tasks without blocking Neovim.

- Git >= **2.19.0** (for partial clones support)
- a Nerd Font <https://www.nerdfonts.com/> **(optional)**
- luarocks <https://luarocks.org/> to install rockspecs.
    You can remove `rockspec` from `opts.pkg.sources` to disable this feature.


==============================================================================
3. 🛠️ Installation                       *lazy.nvim-🛠️-installation*

There are multiple ways to install **lazy.nvim**. The **Structured Setup** is
the recommended way, but you can also use the **Single File Setup** if you
prefer to keep everything in your `init.lua`.

Please refer to the Configuration </configuration> section for an overview of
all available options.




STRUCTURED SETUP             *lazy.nvim-🛠️-installation-structured-setup*

>lua
    require("config.lazy")
<

>lua
    -- Bootstrap lazy.nvim
    local lazypath = vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/lazy/lazy.nvim"
    if not (vim.uv or vim.loop).fs_stat(lazypath) then
      local lazyrepo = "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git"
      vim.fn.system({ "git", "clone", "--filter=blob:none", "--branch=stable", lazyrepo, lazypath })
    end
    vim.opt.rtp:prepend(lazypath)
    
    -- Make sure to setup `mapleader` and `maplocalleader` before
    -- loading lazy.nvim so that mappings are correct.
    -- This is also a good place to setup other settings (vim.opt)
    vim.g.mapleader = " "
    vim.g.maplocalleader = "\\"
    
    -- Setup lazy.nvim
    require("lazy").setup({
      -- highlight-start
      spec = {
        -- import your plugins
        { import = "plugins" },
      },
      -- highlight-end
      -- Configure any other settings here. See the documentation for more details.
      -- colorscheme that will be used when installing plugins.
      install = { colorscheme = { "habamax" } },
      -- automatically check for plugin updates
      checker = { enabled = true },
    })
<

You can then create your plugin specs in `~/.config/nvim/lua/plugins/`. Each
file should return a table with the plugins you want to install.

For more info see Structuring Your Plugins </usage/structuring>


SINGLE FILE SETUP           *lazy.nvim-🛠️-installation-single-file-setup*

>lua
    -- Bootstrap lazy.nvim
    local lazypath = vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/lazy/lazy.nvim"
    if not (vim.uv or vim.loop).fs_stat(lazypath) then
      local lazyrepo = "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git"
      vim.fn.system({ "git", "clone", "--filter=blob:none", "--branch=stable", lazyrepo, lazypath })
    end
    vim.opt.rtp:prepend(lazypath)
    
    -- Make sure to setup `mapleader` and `maplocalleader` before
    -- loading lazy.nvim so that mappings are correct.
    -- This is also a good place to setup other settings (vim.opt)
    vim.g.mapleader = " "
    vim.g.maplocalleader = "\\"
    
    -- Setup lazy.nvim
    require("lazy").setup({
      -- highlight-start
      spec = {
        -- add your plugins here
      },
      -- highlight-end
      -- Configure any other settings here. See the documentation for more details.
      -- colorscheme that will be used when installing plugins.
      install = { colorscheme = { "habamax" } },
      -- automatically check for plugin updates
      checker = { enabled = true },
    })

4. 🔌 Plugin Spec                               *lazy.nvim-🔌-plugin-spec*


SPEC SOURCE                           *lazy.nvim-🔌-plugin-spec-spec-source*

  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Property   Type       Description
  ---------- ---------- -------------------------------------------------------------
  [1]        string?    Short plugin url. Will be expanded using
                        config.git.url_format. Can also be a url or dir.

  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
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A valid spec should define one of `[1]`, `dir` or `url`.


SPEC LOADING                         *lazy.nvim-🔌-plugin-spec-spec-loading*

  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Property       Type                      Description
  -------------- ------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------
  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.

  enabled        boolean? or fun():boolean When false, or if the function returns false, then this
                                           plugin will not be included in the spec

  cond           boolean? or               Behaves the same as enabled, but won’t uninstall the
                 fun(LazyPlugin):boolean   plugin when the condition is false. Useful to disable
                                           some plugins in vscode, or firenvim for example.

  priority       number?                   Only useful for start plugins (lazy=false) to force
                                           loading certain plugins first. Default priority is 50.
                                           It’s recommended to set this to a high number for
                                           colorschemes.

  opts       table or                      opts should be a table (will be merged with parent specs),
             fun(LazyPlugin, opts:table)   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)   config is executed when the plugin loads. The default
             or true                       implementation will automatically run
                                           require(MAIN).setup(opts) if opts or config = true is set.
                                           Lazy uses several heuristics to determine the plugin’s MAIN
                                           module automatically based on the plugin’s name. See also
                                           opts. To use the default implementation without opts set
                                           config to true.

  main       string?                       You can specify the main module to use for config() and
                                           opts(), in case it can not be determined automatically. See
                                           config()

  build      fun(LazyPlugin) or string or  build is executed when a plugin is installed or updated.
             a list of build commands      See Building for more information.

                        plugins that may/may not be part of the user’s plugins. When the
                        plugin is disabled, none of the scoped specs will be included in
                        the final spec. Similar to dependencies without the automatic
                        loading of the specs.

  module     false?     Do not automatically load this Lua module when it’s required
                        somewhere

  import     string?    Import the given spec module.

LAZY LOADING                         *lazy.nvim-🔌-plugin-spec-lazy-loading*

**lazy.nvim** automagically lazy-loads Lua modules. This means that if you have
a plugin `A` that is lazy-loaded and a plugin `B` that requires a module of
plugin `A`, then plugin `A` will be loaded on demand as expected.


Additionally, you can also lazy-load on **events**, **commands**, **file
types** and **key mappings**.

Plugins will be lazy-loaded when one of the following is `true`:

- The plugin only exists as a dependency in your spec
- It has an `event`, `cmd`, `ft` or `keys` key
- `config.defaults.lazy == true`


🌈 COLORSCHEMES ~

Colorscheme plugins can be configured with `lazy=true`. The plugin will
automagically load when doing `colorscheme foobar`.



⌨️ LAZY KEY MAPPINGS ~

The `keys` property can be a `string` or `string[]` for simple normal-mode
mappings, or it can be a `LazyKeysSpec` table with the following key-value
pairs:

- **[1]**: (`string`) lhs **(required)**
- **[2]**: (`string|fun()`) rhs **(optional)**
- **mode**: (`string|string[]`) mode **(optional, defaults to "n")**
- **ft**: (`string|string[]`) `filetype` for buffer-local keymaps **(optional)**
- 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.

>lua
    -- Example for neo-tree.nvim
    {
      "nvim-neo-tree/neo-tree.nvim",
        keys = {
          { "<leader>ft", "<cmd>Neotree toggle<cr>", desc = "NeoTree" },
        },
        config = function()
          require("neo-tree").setup()
        end,
    }
<


VERSIONING                             *lazy.nvim-🔌-plugin-spec-versioning*

If you want to install a specific revision of a plugin, you can use `commit`,
`tag`, `branch`, `version`.

The `version` property supports Semver <https://semver.org/> ranges.



EXAMPLES ~

- `*`: latest stable version (this excludes pre-release versions)
- `1.2.x`: any version that starts with `1.2`, such as `1.2.0`, `1.2.3`, etc.
- `^1.2.3`: any version that is compatible with `1.2.3`, such as `1.3.0`, `1.4.5`, etc., but not `2.0.0`.
- `~1.2.3`: any version that is compatible with `1.2.3`, such as `1.2.4`, `1.2.5`, but not `1.3.0`.
- `>1.2.3`: any version that is greater than `1.2.3`, such as `1.3.0`, `1.4.5`, etc.
- `>=1.2.3`: any version that is greater than or equal to `1.2.3`, such as `1.2.3`, `1.3.0`, `1.4.5`, etc.
- `<1.2.3`: any version that is less than `1.2.3`, such as `1.1.0`, `1.0.5`, etc.
- `<=1.2.3`: any version that is less than or equal to `1.2.3`, such as `1.2.3`, `1.1.0`, `1.0.5`, etc

5. 📦 Packages                                     *lazy.nvim-📦-packages*

**lazy.nvim** supports three ways for plugins to define their dependencies and
configuration.

- **Lazy**: `lazy.lua` file
- **Rockspec**: luarocks <https://luarocks.org/> `*-scm-1.rockspec` file <https://github.com/luarocks/luarocks/wiki/Rockspec-format>
- **Packspec**: `pkg.json` (experimental, since the format <https://github.com/neovim/packspec/issues/41> is not quite there yet)

You can enable/disable package sources with `config.pkg.sources`
</configuration>. The order of sources is important, as the first source that
finds a package will be used.



LAZY                                            *lazy.nvim-📦-packages-lazy*

Using a `lazy.lua` file is the recommended way to define your plugin
dependencies and configuration. Syntax is the same as any plugin spec.


ROCKSPEC                                    *lazy.nvim-📦-packages-rockspec*

When a plugin contains a `*-1.rockspec` file, **lazy.nvim** will automatically
build the rock and its dependencies.

A **rockspec** will only be used if one of the following is true:

- the package does not have a `/lua` directory
- the package has a complex build step
- the package has dependencies (excluding `lua`)


PACKSPEC                                    *lazy.nvim-📦-packages-packspec*

Supports the pkg.json
<https://github.com/nvim-lua/nvim-package-specification/issues/41> format, with
a lazy extension in `lazy`. `lazy` can contain any valid lazy spec fields. They
will be added to the plugin’s spec.


==============================================================================
6. ⚙️ Configuration                       *lazy.nvim-⚙️-configuration*

**lazy.nvim** comes with the following defaults:

>lua
    {
      root = vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/lazy", -- directory where plugins will be installed
      defaults = {
        -- Set this to `true` to have all your plugins lazy-loaded by default.
        -- Only do this if you know what you are doing, as it can lead to unexpected behavior.
        lazy = false, -- should plugins be lazy-loaded?
        -- It's recommended to leave version=false for now, since a lot the plugin that support versioning,

7. 🚀 Usage                                           *lazy.nvim-🚀-usage*


▶️ STARTUP SEQUENCE         *lazy.nvim-🚀-usage-▶️-startup-sequence*

**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.

In practice this means that step 10 of |Neovim Initialization| is done by Lazy:

1. All the plugins’ `init()` functions are executed
2. 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 your rtp are sourced (excluding `/after`)
4. All `/after/plugin` files are sourced (this includes `/after` from plugins)

Files from runtime directories are always sourced in alphabetical order.


🚀 COMMANDS                             *lazy.nvim-🚀-usage-🚀-commands*

Plugins are managed with the `:Lazy` command. Open the help with `<?>` to see
all the key mappings.

You can press `<CR>` on a plugin to show its details. Most properties can be
hovered with `<K>` to open links, help files, readmes, git commits and git
issues.

Lazy can automatically check for updates in the background. This feature can be
enabled with `config.checker.enabled = true`.

Any operation can be started from the UI, with a sub command or an API
function:

                                                             lockfile. For a single
                                                             plugin: restore it to
                                                             the state in the
                                                             lockfile or to a given

  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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:

>shell
    nvim --headless "+Lazy! sync" +qa
<

`opts` is a table with the following key-values:

- **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

Stats API (`require("lazy").stats()`):

>lua
    {
      -- startuptime in milliseconds till UIEnter
      startuptime = 0,
      -- when true, startuptime is the accurate cputime for the Neovim process. (Linux & macOS)
      -- this is more accurate than `nvim --startuptime`, and as such will be slightly higher
      -- when false, startuptime is calculated based on a delta with a timestamp when lazy started.
      real_cputime = false,
      count = 0, -- total number of plugins
      loaded = 0, -- number of loaded plugins
      ---@type table<string, number>
      times = {},
    }
<

**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`
to make this work.

Example of configuring lualine.nvim ~

>lua
    require("lualine").setup({
      sections = {
        lualine_x = {
          {
            require("lazy.status").updates,
            cond = require("lazy.status").has_updates,
            color = { fg = "#ff9e64" },
          },
        },
      },
    })
<


📆 USER EVENTS                       *lazy.nvim-🚀-usage-📆-user-events*

The following user events will be triggered:

- **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
- **LazyLoad**: after loading a plugin. The `data` attribute will contain the plugin name.
- **LazySyncPre**: before running sync
- **LazyInstallPre**: before an install
- **LazyUpdatePre**: before an update
- **LazyCleanPre**: before a clean
- **LazyCheckPre**: before checking for updates
- **LazyLogPre**: before 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.
    Useful to update the startuptime on your dashboard.


❌ UNINSTALLING                       *lazy.nvim-🚀-usage-❌-uninstalling*

To uninstall **lazy.nvim**, you need to remove the following files and
directories:

- **data**: `~/.local/share/nvim/lazy`
- **state**: `~/.local/state/nvim/lazy`
- **lockfile**: `~/.config/nvim/lazy-lock.json`


  Paths can differ if you changed `XDG` environment variables.

🔒 LOCKFILE                             *lazy.nvim-🚀-usage-🔒-lockfile*

After every **update**, the local lockfile (`lazy-lock.json`) 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.

If you are on another machine, you can do `:Lazy restore`, to update all your
plugins to the version from the lockfile.


📦 MIGRATION GUIDE               *lazy.nvim-🚀-usage-📦-migration-guide*


PACKER.NVIM ~

- `setup` ➡️ `init`
- `requires` ➡️ `dependencies`
- `as` ➡️ `name`
- `opt` ➡️ `lazy`
- `run` ➡️ `build`
- `lock` ➡️ `pin`
- `disable=true` ➡️ `enabled = false`
- `tag='*'` ➡️ `version="*"`
- `after` is **not needed** for most use-cases. Use `dependencies` otherwise.
- `wants` is **not needed** for most use-cases. Use `dependencies` otherwise.
- `config` don’t support string type, use `fun(LazyPlugin)` instead.
- `module` is auto-loaded. No need to specify
- `keys` spec is |lazy.nvim-different|
- `rtp` can be accomplished with:

>lua
    config = function(plugin)
        vim.opt.rtp:append(plugin.dir .. "/custom-rtp")
    end
<

With packer `wants`, `requires` and `after` can be used to manage dependencies.
With lazy, this isn’t needed for most of the Lua dependencies. They can be
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.


PAQ-NVIM ~

- `as` ➡️ `name`
- `opt` ➡️ `lazy`
- `run` ➡️ `build`


⚡ PROFILING & DEBUG             *lazy.nvim-🚀-usage-⚡-profiling-&-debug*

Great care has been taken to make the startup code (`lazy.core`) as efficient
as possible. During startup, all Lua files used before `VimEnter` or
`BufReadPre` are byte-compiled and cached, similar to what impatient.nvim
<https://github.com/lewis6991/impatient.nvim> does.

My config for example loads in about `11ms` with `93` plugins. I do a lot of
lazy-loading though :)

**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.


🐛 DEBUG ~

cache.


📂 STRUCTURING YOUR PLUGINS*lazy.nvim-🚀-usage-📂-structuring-your-plugins*

Some users may want to split their plugin specs in multiple files. Instead of
passing a spec table to `setup()`, you can use a Lua module. The specs from the
**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.

The benefits of using this approach:

- 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 they’re updated, so the `:Lazy` UI is always up to date.

Example:

- `~/.config/nvim/init.lua`

>lua
    require("lazy").setup("plugins")
<

- `~/.config/nvim/lua/plugins.lua` or `~/.config/nvim/lua/plugins/init.lua` **(this file is optional)**

>lua
    return {
      "folke/neodev.nvim",
      "folke/which-key.nvim",
      { "folke/neoconf.nvim", cmd = "Neoconf" },
    }
<

- Any lua file in `~/.config/nvim/lua/plugins/*.lua` will be automatically merged in the main plugin spec

For a real-life example, you can check LazyVim
<https://github.com/LazyVim/LazyVim> and more specifically:

- lazyvim.plugins <https://github.com/LazyVim/LazyVim/tree/main/lua/lazyvim/plugins> contains all the plugin specs that will be loaded


↩️ IMPORTING SPECS, CONFIG & OPTS

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")
    
    -- Same as:
    require("lazy").setup({{import = "plugins"}})
<

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" },
      }
    })
<

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.

8. 🔥 Developers                                 *lazy.nvim-🔥-developers*

To make it easier for users to install your plugin, you can include a package
spec </packages> in your repo.


BEST PRACTICES                      *lazy.nvim-🔥-developers-best-practices*

- If your plugin needs `setup()`, then create a simple `lazy.lua` file like this:
    >lua
          return { "me/my-plugin", opts = {} }
    <
- Plugins that are pure lua libraries should be lazy-loaded with `lazy = true`.
    >lua
        { "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim", lazy = true }
    <
- Only use `dependencies` if a plugin needs the dep to be installed **AND**
    loaded. Lua plugins/libraries are automatically loaded when they are
    `require()`d, so they don’t need to be in `dependencies`.
- Inside a `build` function or `*.lua` build file, use
    `coroutine.yield(status_msg)` to show progress.
- Don’t change the `cwd` in your build function, since builds run in parallel
    and changing the `cwd` will affect other builds.


BUILDING                                  *lazy.nvim-🔥-developers-building*

The spec **build** property can be one of the following:

- `fun(plugin: LazyPlugin)`: a function that builds the plugin.
- `*.lua`: a Lua file that builds the plugin (like `build.lua`)
- `":Command"`: a Neovim command
- `"rockspec"`: this will run `luarocks make` in the plugin’s directory
    This is automatically set by the `rockspec` package </packages> source.
- any other **string** will be run as a shell command
- a `list` of any of the above to run multiple build steps
- if no `build` is specified, but a `build.lua` file exists, that will be used instead.

Build functions and `*.lua` files run asynchronously in a coroutine. Use
`coroutine.yield(status_msg)` to show progress. Yielding will also schedule the
next `coroutine.resume()` to run in the next tick, so you can do long-running
tasks without blocking Neovim.
