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 lazy.nvim <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.
- `rocks`: specs can now specify a list of rocks (luarocks
<https://luarocks.org/>) that should be installed.
- 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)
==============================================================================

==============================================================================
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>

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.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SPEC SETUP *lazy.nvim-🔌-plugin-spec-spec-setup*
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Property Type Description
---------- ----------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------
init fun(LazyPlugin) init functions are always executed during startup
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 Before running build, a plugin is first loaded. If it’s a
string it will be run as a shell command. When prefixed with
: it is a Neovim command. You can also specify a list to
executed multiple build commands. Some plugins provide their
own build.lua which is automatically used by lazy. So no
need to specify a build step for those plugins.
rocks string[]? Add any luarocks dependencies.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SPEC LAZY LOADING *lazy.nvim-🔌-plugin-spec-spec-lazy-loading*
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Property Type Description
---------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
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
event string? or string[] or Lazy-load on event. Events can be
fun(self:LazyPlugin, event:string[]):string[] or specified as BufEnter or with a pattern
{event:string[]\|string, pattern?:string[]\|string} 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 LazyKeysSpec[] or Lazy-load on key mapping
fun(self:LazyPlugin, keys:string[]):(string \| LazyKeysSpec)[]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Refer to the Lazy Loading <./lazy_loading.md> section for more information.
SPEC VERSIONING *lazy.nvim-🔌-plugin-spec-spec-versioning*
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Property Type Description
------------ -------------------- --------------------------------------------
branch string? Branch of the repository
tag string? Tag of the repository
commit string? Commit of the repository
version string? or false to Version to use from the repository. Full
override the default 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
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Refer to the Versioning <./versioning.md> section for more information.
SPEC ADVANCED *lazy.nvim-🔌-plugin-spec-spec-advanced*
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Property Type Description
---------- ---------- ------------------------------------------------------------------
optional boolean? When a spec is tagged optional, it will only be included in the
final spec, when the same plugin has been specified at least once
somewhere else without optional. This is mainly useful for Neovim
distros, to allow setting options on plugins that may/may not be
part of the user’s plugins.
specs LazySpec A list of plugin specs defined in the scope of the plugin. This is
mainly useful for Neovim distros, to allow setting options on
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 `*-scm-1.rockspec` file, **lazy.nvim** will
automatically load its `rocks` </spec#setup> dependencies.
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

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:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Command Lua Description
------------------------- -------------------------------- -----------------------
:Lazy build {plugins} require("lazy").build(opts) Rebuild a plugin
:Lazy check [plugins] require("lazy").check(opts?) Check for updates and
show the log (git
fetch)
:Lazy clean [plugins] require("lazy").clean(opts?) Clean plugins that are
no longer needed
:Lazy clear require("lazy").clear() Clear finished tasks
:Lazy debug require("lazy").debug() Show debug information
:Lazy health require("lazy").health() Run :checkhealth lazy
:Lazy help require("lazy").help() Toggle this help page
:Lazy home require("lazy").home() Go back to plugin list
:Lazy install [plugins] require("lazy").install(opts?) Install missing plugins
:Lazy load {plugins} require("lazy").load(opts) Load a plugin that has
not been loaded yet.
Similar to :packadd.
Like
:Lazy load foo.nvim.
Use :Lazy! load to skip
cond checks.
:Lazy log [plugins] require("lazy").log(opts?) Show recent updates
:Lazy profile require("lazy").profile() Show detailed profiling
:Lazy reload {plugins} require("lazy").reload(opts) Reload a plugin
(experimental!!)
:Lazy restore [plugins] require("lazy").restore(opts?) Updates all plugins to
the state in the
lockfile. For a single
plugin: restore it to
the state in the
lockfile or to a given
commit under the cursor
:Lazy sync [plugins] require("lazy").sync(opts?) Run install, clean and
update
:Lazy update [plugins] require("lazy").update(opts?) Update plugins. This
will also update the
lockfile
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 ~
See an overview of active lazy-loading handlers and what’s in the module
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. 📚 Plugin Developers *lazy.nvim-📚-plugin-developers*
To make it easier for users to install your plugin, you can include a package
spec </packages> in your repo.
If your plugin needs a build step, you can specify this in your **package
file**, or create a file `build.lua` or `build/init.lua` in the root of your
repo. This file will be loaded when the plugin is installed or updated.
This makes it easier for users, as they no longer need to specify a `build`
command.
