lazy.nvim

Features

  • Partial clones instead of shallow clones
  • waits till missing deps are installed (bootstrap Neovim and start using it right away)
  • Async
  • No need for compile
  • Fast
  • Correct sequencing of dependencies (deps should always be opt. Maybe make everything opt?)
  • Import specs from Packer
  • Config in multiple files
  • Patterns for local packages
  • Profiling
  • lockfile
  • upvalues in config & init
  • check for updates
  • package.lua
  • package-lock.lua
  • tag/version support git tag --sort version:refname
  • auto-loading on completion for lazy-loaded commands
  • bootstrap code
  • semver https://devhints.io/semver https://semver.npmjs.com/

TODO

  • health checks: check merge conflicts async
  • allow setting up plugins through config
  • support for Plugin.lock
  • defaults for git log
  • view keybindings for update/clean/...
  • add profiler to view
  • add buttons for actions
  • show time taken for op in view
  • package meta index (package.lua cache for all packages)
  • auto lazy-loading of lua modules
  • use uv file watcher to check for config changes
  • clear errors
  • add support for versions git tag --sort v:refname
  • rename requires to dependencies
  • move tasks etc to Plugin.state
  • handlers imply opt
  • dependencies imply opt for deps
  • fix local plugin spec
  • investigate all opt=true. Simplifies logic (easily switch between opt/start afterwards)
  • add support to specify engines, os and cpu like in package.json

📦 Differences with Packer

  • Plugin Spec:

    • setup => init
    • requires => dependencies
    • as => name
