My neovim configuration

Just an useless git repository to keep my nvim configuration.

Getting Started

You can follow this tutorial to get neovim - Tutorial

Or this one - Tutorial-PPA

Installation

Follow the instructions related to your distrib in order to have Neovim package

Be careful about dependencies especially for Python

For the plugins part

You have to create a directory to store Nvim configuration file (init.vim)

$ mkdir -p ~/.config/nvim

Install the Vim-plug Plugin Manager

$ curl -fLo ~/.local/share/nvim/site/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim

Install the NeoVim Python module

$ pip3 install --user neovim

Create the Nvim configuration if it's not done yet

$ touch ~/.config/nvim/init.vim

Add the following lines

call plug#begin()
Plug 'roxma/nvim-completion-manager'
call plug#end()

Launch nvim, excute PlugInstall, update the plugins and exit

nvim
:PlugInstall
:UpdateRemotePlugins
:qa!

Optionnal

If you want to use Neovim for some (or all) of the editor alternatives, use the following commands:

sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/vi vi /usr/bin/nvim 60
sudo update-alternatives --config vi
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/vim vim /usr/bin/nvim 60
sudo update-alternatives --config vim
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/editor editor /usr/bin/nvim 60
sudo update-alternatives --config editor
