Find the best Neovim plugins

👋 Hello there, I'm codico

I enjoy learning and building things. Interested in distributed systems.

• SpeedTyper.dev - multiplayer typing app for programmers
• Dotfyle - discover and share Neovim configs and plugins
• kv-raft - raft consensus implementation in go
• dotfiles - Neovim, kitty, i3, zsh, fish

I stream programming live on Twitch.

Say hello on Discord!

dotfyle's Issues

Allow deleting configs

Match existing plugins based on lazy-lock file.

Making login button in header wider by default

It can wrap if/when necessary but there isn't really a point to having this one aspect of the style differ from the other login button by default.

Improve project documentation and setup for new contributors

Problem

As a potential contributor, it can be challenging to figure out how to get started with the project due to the lack of documentation and setup guidelines. For example, I hit a wall running npm run build. The project has a lot of potential, and having more contributors onboard would be beneficial.

Proposed Solution

To make it easier for new contributors to get started, I suggest creating and updating the following project files:

1. README.md - Provide a comprehensive overview of the project, including its purpose, features, installation steps, usage, and any other relevant information.

2. CONTRIBUTING.md - Create a clear guide on how to contribute to the project. This should include information on submitting issues, pull requests, coding conventions, testing, and any other project-specific contribution guidelines.
   2.5. Alternatively, issue templates could serve the same purpose but be slightly more streamlined.

3. .env.template - Include a sample environment file to help new contributors set up their local environment. This should contain all necessary environment variables with placeholder values and descriptions

Incorrect LSP detection

Thank you for Dotfyle, it's great!

One potential bug is that it can't detect all language servers, at least in my config.
For example here it detects the following language servers:

• tflint
• html
• clangd
• marksman
• gopls
• graphql
• pyright

And it's missing the following ones:

• bash-language-server
• terraform-ls
• tsserver
• lua_ls
• yamlls

Even though they seem to be included in the known language servers.

Also it detects html and graphql as a language servers even though I haven't set any such LSPs.
That maybe an issue with the known language servers, since I can't find an LSP named html or graphql in Mason 😅

Sync plugins on cron

Add share button to config and plugin page

Improve config search page

Currently the config search page does not have many options, and does not perform well because there are too many configs

Add init.fnl as accepted init file

Dotfyle currently won't let me specify my root config file because of my sophisticated Neovim config build system where my config consists of a native part in Zig and interpreted parts in Fennel. In order to accommodate this as well as even more exotic setups, it'd be great if any file in the dotfiles repo could be selected.

For my neovim config, see this directory in my dotfiles (github mirror).

In my case, I'd consider the best candidate for a "root init file" to be this file, however I'm just met with this unhelpful dialog:

Autoload plugin manager

So In my dotfiles I use vimplug but is autoloaded https://dotfyle.com/Mte90/dotfiles-config-nvim so I don't commit it but I call vimplug on https://github.com/mte90/dotfiles/blob/master/.config/nvim/lua/plugins.lua with the command.
Maybe a way could be scan for that command in the various files?

Other configs of dotfiles

I want to share not only Neovim configs but also zsh ones, dotfiles setup scripts, or Brewfile.
That's because the project name is dotfyle.

cannot add config repos in GitHub Orgs

My config is in a GitHub Org, along with books and other repositories to help use Neovim

When adding a config, the website only shows repositories from the account, so my config is not found.

Consider either of the following

• option to paste in a GitHub repository URL
• option to search through a selected GitHub Org

Thank you

support for nix

A really cool project!

I tried signing up with my config, but it fails on step 2, because it can't find the init file.
My init.lua doesn't exist in the dotfiles, because it's generated by nix (which I use to manage plugins).

I'm not sure if it would be feasible to add support for nix, but I've opened this issue just in case 😄

Sync repo description for configs

Cannot navigate between different lists after opening filter drawer

When opening the filter drawer on e.g. /neovim/plugins/trending you can no longer navigate to others sorts e.g. /neovim/plugins/top and you can also no longer navigate to other lists e.g. /neovim/colorscheme/top

Gitea support

Is there any way to get direct gifea support or is it only possible by mirroring the repo from gitea to github?

Run plugin scraper on cron

Add tags to configs

Automatically parse Neovim core news from news.txt.atom for TWiN

When generating a new TWiN issue we should automatically parse https://github.com/neovim/neovim/commits/master/runtime/doc/news.txt.atom and add all commits since the previous date to the Neovim core section as news items.

Identify removed plugins during sync

Consider making TWiN RSS feed autodiscoverable

See https://dri.es/rss-auto-discovery. This would make it slightly easier to find the RSS feed, especially if someone is linked to the issue page directly, which only has a little RSS link in the footer.

(I'd probably try this myself, but preparing the dev environment was too complex for me :/)

leaderkey not found

So I don't define the leader key and I use the default one https://github.com/Mte90/dotfiles/blob/master/.config/nvim/lua/mappings.lua

Maybe just report that information in case is not found?

[Request] Light theme

I have astigmatism and find it easier to read on a light theme (light background with darker fonts).

Could a toggle be implemented so we may switch from the dark to the light theme?

Support rss feed for this-week-in-neovim

this-week-in-neovim.org provided an rss feed, dotfyle.com/this-week-in-neovim does not currently support an rss feed for consuming TWiN. We should add support for this once we start curating new issues of TWiN.

Moved plugin is not properly updated

nvim-cokeline was moved to my account recently, but only the old owner's repo shows up on dotfyle and configs containing it aren't being tracked even though readme changes / updates are.

Investigate handling for mini.nvim

Sync configs on a cron job

Redirect directly to config page when sync comples

Currently you end up on this page

Instead you should be redirected directly to /{user}/{config-slug}

Notify plugins on github when they doesn't have the neovim-plugin tag

As example mine didn't had that tag but just "neovim" and many doesn't have any tag at all.
Maybe an heuritstic can be to check if the URL has nvim?

Support rocks.nvim?

There's a new plugin manager, rocks.nvim, which uses a rocks.toml as the source of truth for plugins.

Here's an example. It should be pretty easy to parse.
One difference to most plugin managers is that it uses name-based installation (without a repo owner, because plugins are installed from luarocks.org, unless using the rocks-git module).
I don't know how dotfyle would handle this?

Doesn't detect various servers

As you can see on https://dotfyle.com/Mte90/dotfiles-config-nvim detects eslint but it isn't configured.
https://github.com/mte90/dotfiles/blob/master/.config/nvim/lua/plugin/lsp.lua

Instead I have also bashls, cssls and phpactor and intelephense.

The color of modal component doesn't toggle with theme

Slack embeds the same for main page and repo view

I shared https://dotfyle.com/ and https://dotfyle.com/ to https://dotfyle.com/technicalpickles/pickled-nvim to one of the Slacks I am in, and was surprised they render the same:

It took a bit to find, but this is how Slack decides what to display: https://api.slack.com/reference/messaging/link-unfurling#classic_unfurl ie opengraph or twitter card metadata.

I found this which talks about how to implement opengraph: https://whitep4nth3r.com/blog/level-up-your-link-previews-in-slack/

Fix image parsing regex bug

dotfyle/src/lib/server/media/parser.spec.ts

Lines 88 to 94 in 224da07

	it.skip('matches absolute github url with "-" in owner name', () => {
	const md = ""
	const output = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/j-hui/fidget.nvim/media/gifs/fidget-demo-rust-analyzer.gif"
	const media = run(md, "j-hui", "fidget.nvim", "main");
	expect(media[0]).toEqual(output);
	expect(media.length).toBe(1);
	})

Make this test and all other tests pass, the image matching code is trash but at least we're starting to have some test coverage so we can refactor when appropriate

plugin scan detect all the plugins and detect commented ones

It looks like plugin scan doesn't detect all the plugins, and detect ones that are commented out Take a look at mine repo you can see the plugin list there that are not detected:

[...]
  -- status line
  use 'itchyny/lightline.vim'
  -- use {"rebelot/heirline.nvim",
  --   config = function() require 'configs/heirline' end}

  -- ack/ag support
  use 'mileszs/ack.vim'

  use 'octol/vim-cpp-enhanced-highlight'
  use 'nickhutchinson/vim-cmake-syntax'
  use 'potatoesmaster/i3-vim-syntax'
[...]

Also worth noting, that it detects rebelot/heirline.nvim as installed, but in fact it is commented out.

Config repo not showing up in 'add new neovim config' wizard

Hi,

My neovim config repo is not showing up in the add config dialog of the website.

I doublechecked my repo is public, and it is: vim

Any idea what am I doing wrong?

Some plugins aren't counted in the total and it's a bit confusing for new users.

According to Lazy.nvim I have 46 plugins

Here's the badge for my Neovim config:

As I post this, it currently says I have 20 plugins. I'm unsure what's being counted here and what isn't, but I suspect that a part of it might be that Lazy.nvim plugins can be configured from inside of a dependency declaration.

It might also be that my configs' had plenty of scuff from its inception lol 😅

Improve plugin search on smaller screens

Possible support: `vim` plugins

While I know most configurations are generally more nvim- and lua-focused, there are still a lot of configs (including mine!) that make pretty heavy use of vim plugins as well. There are still some classics like Fugitive that shine, regardless of what they're written in.

I was wondering if dotfyle had any plans to possibly support also parsing lists of vim plugins (e.g. https://github.com/akrawchyk/awesome-vim) to put together more accurate plugin counts for those who may be using vimscript plugins, as awesome-neovim generally only lists neovim-specific ones.

Track .fnl and .vim files

[FR] Show repo license in overview

In addition to showing information like which package manager, whether the repo is a fork, and so on. I propose that the LICENSE of the repo should also be shown.

Does not work when using chezmoi

I'm using chezmoi to manage my dotfiles. Unfortunately I can't use Dotfyle because it does not allow me to select my init.lua. I think the reason for that is that the files and directories named a litte bit differently.

For example the path to my init.lua is dot_config/nvim/init.lua.tmpl. dot_ because every hidden (dot) directory starts with dot_ and .tmpl because I'm using templating.

LOC count

I think a lines of code count would be nice to have. I doesn't really matter but it can give you a feeling for the complexity of a config.
Have a great day!

Add filter/sort for config search

Improve TWiN consistency

There seems to be a highly inconsistent schedule on when those are posted (which I thought was automated?) and the last one was 3ish weeks ago.
