Monokai Phoenix Theme for Vim

vim-monokai-phoenix

A different monokai phoenix theme for Vim, based on Monokai-phoenix found in the Javascript-Next Sublime package.

For the optimal JavaScript syntax experience, it is recommended to use pangloss/vim-javascript for your JS syntax needs.

Installation

Using Plug, you can do the following:

Plug 'reewr/vim-monokai-phoenix'

Then do :PlugInstall and you're good to go

About

This colour scheme is still being adjusted as it was created from scratch using the Sublime version as inspiration. There are some differences, mostly due to personal taste.

If you have some suggestions on how to improve the colour scheme, please make an issue.

Issues

Below follows issues that are outside of my control.

• nvim-qt#145 does not apply terminal cursor colour correctly. This is specific to this application and I can therefore not apply a fix directly. There is however a fix for it: hi TermCursor cterm=reverse gui=reverse should display the cursor correctly.

vim-monokai-phoenix's Issues

Dot operator colour

In the Sublime version, the dots used for accessing member / properties is coloured on the same way as any other operator. I might need to look into that.

No method call highlighting

One of the main features from Javascript-Next was the ability to make method calls green. This made the method calls stand out.

This has to be fixed through syntax.

Comment colors are inverted in standard vim on iTerm2

On the main page, it shows comments as just blue text with a dark background, but for me the colors seem to be inverted almost as if they're highlighted:

What would I modify to change comments to be more like sublime text... dark gray so they're less pronounced?

ES6 Arrow Notation

ES6 Arrow Notation is not highlighted with the right color. The arrow itself should be aqua-colored. It is now red.

The colors of the arguments within a Arrow function is not highlighted either. Must be fixed through syntax.

Make comments stand slightly more out

Colour of the comments is a bit too dark and can sometimes be slightly tough to red. While I'm a fan of the gray colour they have in Sublime, I think it's better to make them a bit more visible.

vimcolors.com gives wrong impression

For some strange reasons, vimcolors.com uses a different syntax than that of normal vim giving the wrong impression when displaying the example.

Below is a comparison between the image from vimcolors and the one taken from vim.

JSON-colors are too red

The colors of a JSON file is way too red. They should be more string-colored (yellow)

Fix typos in example

Not really high priority, but there's some typos in the screenshots. Like 'numer' instead of 'number'.

Test conditional syntaxing

The current syntax file takes less than two milliseconds to load. However, due to how people define syntax, the colour scheme may look different from syntax to syntax (not ideal). Due to this, I may need to declare colours for syntax elements as I have done with JavaScript and PureScript for other languages.

Since the syntax file is run for every filetype, I wonder if there's any performance benefit to throwing all the Language specific pieces under an if-statement that checks based on filetype.

I'll need to try it out and make sure it does not break anything though.

Selection is not visible

When selecting, the text you are selecting is not visible due to no background change. The only indiciation is that the text you are selecting is missing highlighting

Terminal cursor colour in nvim-qt is incorrect

The cursor colour in terminal in nvim-qt is incorrectly coloured as "black". Doesn't seem to be anything I can do with it from the colour scheme.

Comment is wrong color in terminal

Comment is of the wrong color in terminals. Should be more grayish

Throw-colors should be same as if-statement

The colors of throw, new, Error is a bit off and should be equal to if-statements

Reduce image size slightly

As of now, the images are rendered with 100℅, which makes them about 5Mb and doesn't let mobile users preview them when clicking on them.

Look into colouring of ternary operator

The colouring of the ternary operator is off. If

exp1 ? exp2 : exp3

In the above example, exp2 is coloured in red, where it should've had the normal foreground colour.

Popup menu is too bright

Currently the popup menu is slightly too bright as seen in the screenshot below. It should be adjusted to match its surroundings a bit more but still be uniquely identifiable.
