💤 lazy.nvim

Modern plugin manager for Neovim

✨ Features

📦 Manage all your Neovim plugins with a fancy UI
🚀 Fast startup: Automatically caches and compiles byte code of all lua modules needed during startup
💾 Partial clones instead of shallow clones
🔌 Auto lazy-loading of lua modules
📆 Lazy-loading on events, commands, filetypes and key mappings
⏳ Automatically installs missing plugins before starting up so you can start using Neovim right away
💪 Async execution for improved performance
🛠️ No need to manually compile plugins
🧪 Correct sequencing of dependencies
📁 Configurable in multiple files
💻 Dev option and patterns for using local plugin
📊 Profiling tools to optimize performance
🔒 Lockfile lazy-lock.json to keep track of installed plugin versions
🔎 Automatically check for updates
📋 Commit, branch, tag, version, and full Semver support
📈 Statusline component to see the number of pending updates

⚡️ Requirements

Neovim >= 0.8.0

📦 Installation

You can use the following Lua code to bootstrap lazy.nvim

  local lazypath = vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/lazy/lazy.nvim"
  if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then
    vim.fn.system({
      "git",
      "clone",
      "--filter=blob:none",
      "--single-branch",
      "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git",
      lazypath,
    })
    vim.opt.runtimepath:prepend(lazypath)
  end

Next step is to add lazy.nvim to the top of your init.lua

-- You can use a lua module that contains your plugins.
-- All sub modules of the lua module will also be automatically loaded
-- This is the preferred setup so your plugin specs can be properly cached.
require("lazy").setup("config.plugins", {
  -- add any optional configuration options here
})

-- Alternatively you can specify a plugin list
require("lazy").setup({
    "folke/neodev.nvim",
    "folke/which-key.nvim",
    { "folke/neoconf.nvim", cmd = "Neoconf" },
  }, {
  -- add any optional configuration options here
})

⚙️ Configuration

lazy.nvim comes with the following defaults:

{
  root = vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/lazy", -- directory where plugins will be installed
  defaults = {
    lazy = false, -- should plugins be lazy-loaded?
    version = nil,
    -- version = "*", -- enable this to try installing the latest stable versions of plugins
  },
  lockfile = vim.fn.stdpath("config") .. "/lazy-lock.json", -- lockfile generated after running update.
  concurrency = nil, ---@type number limit the maximum amount of concurrent tasks
  git = {
    -- defaults for the `Lazy log` command
    -- log = { "-10" }, -- show the last 10 commits
    log = { "--since=1 days ago" }, -- show commits from the last 3 days
    timeout = 120, -- kill processes that take more than 2 minutes
    url_format = "https://github.com/%s.git",
  },
  dev = {
    -- directory where you store your local plugin projects
    path = vim.fn.expand("~/projects"),
    ---@type string[] plugins that match these patterns will use your local versions instead of being fetched from GitHub
    patterns = {}, -- For example {"folke"}
  },
  install = {
    -- install missing plugins on startup. This doesn't increase startup time.
    missing = true,
    -- try to load one of these colorschemes when starting an installation during startup
    colorscheme = { "habamax" },
  },
  ui = {
    -- The border to use for the UI window. Accepts same border values as |nvim_open_win()|.
    border = "none",
    icons = {
      cmd = " ",
      config = "",
      event = "",
      ft = " ",
      init = " ",
      keys = " ",
      plugin = " ",
      runtime = " ",
      source = " ",
      start = "",
      task = "✔ ",
    },
    throttle = 20, -- how frequently should the ui process render events
  },
  checker = {
    -- automcatilly check for plugin updates
    enabled = false,
    concurrency = nil, ---@type number? set to 1 to check for updates very slowly
    notify = true, -- get a notification when new updates are found
    frequency = 3600, -- check for updates every hour
  },
  performance = {
    cache = {
      enabled = true,
      path = vim.fn.stdpath("state") .. "/lazy.state",
      -- Once one of the following events triggers, caching will be disabled.
      -- To cache all modules, set this to `{}`, but that is not recommended.
      -- The default is to disable on:
      --  * VimEnter: not useful to cache anything else beyond startup
      --  * BufReadPre: this will be triggered early when opening a file from the command line directly
      disable_events = { "VimEnter", "BufReadPre" },
    },
    reset_packpath = true, -- reset the package path to improve startup time
    rtp = {
      reset = true, -- reset the runtime path to $VIMRUNTIME and your config directory
      ---@type string[] list any plugins you want to disable here
      disabled_plugins = {
        -- "gzip",
        -- "matchit",
        -- "matchparen",
        -- "netrwPlugin",
        -- "tarPlugin",
        -- "tohtml",
        -- "tutor",
        -- "zipPlugin",
      },
    },
  },
}

📦 Differences with Packer

Plugin Spec:
- setup => init
- requires => dependencies
- as => name
- opt => lazy
- run => build
- lock => pin
- module is auto-loaded. No need to specify
