Taken from the Neovim From Scratch repo.
Make sure to remove or move your current nvim
directory
IMPORTANT Requires Neovim v0.6.0 or Nightly.
git clone https://github.com/kevinmcgill/nvim.git ~/.config/nvim
Run nvim
and wait for the plugins to be installed
NOTE (You will notice treesitter pulling in a bunch of parsers the next time you open Neovim)
Open nvim
and enter the following:
:checkhealth
You'll probably notice you don't have support for copy/paste also that python and node haven't been setup
So let's fix that
First we'll fix copy/paste
-
On mac
pbcopy
should be builtin -
On Ubuntu
sudo apt install xsel
-
On Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S xsel
Next we need to install python support (node is optional)
-
Neovim python support
pip install pynvim
-
Neovim node support
npm i -g neovim
NOTE make sure you have node installed, I recommend a node manager like fnm.
