SpaceNeovim is Spacemacs for Neovim. Forked from ctjhoa/spacevim and rewritten/restructured almost entirely (but still majorly inspired by the original fork).

Unlike Spacevim, SpaceNeovim specifically does not focus on support vim, and takes advantage of Neovim specific functions.


Prerequisites:

• git on your path
• nvim on your path

SpaceNeovim is a configurable distribution like Spacemacs.

To start using SpaceNeovim you can use the following oneliner,

mkdir -p ~/.config/nvim/ && curl -sSfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tehnix/spaceneovim/master/vimrc.sample -o ~/.config/nvim/init.vim | nvim

It will download a default init.vim which in turn takes care of setting up the rest by:

• Downloading autoload/spaceneovim.vim
• Setting up vim-plug
• Cloning down the layers repository
• Installing default plugins

Go to the layers repository for more information on the different layers.

To enable a layer, include it in g:dotspaceneovim_configuration_layers inside the dotspaceneovim/init block. For example, the following enables the +checkers/syntax-checking layer,

let g:dotspaceneovim_configuration_layers = [
\  '+checkers/syntax-checking'
\]

You can also add custom layers to g:dotspaceneovim_additional_plugins, which will be installed with vim-plug.

To easily test your changes it is recommended to symlink the various files into your .config/nvim folder. The ones you want to replace are

• .config/nvim/spaceneovim-layers to test layer changes
• .config/nvim/autoload/spaceneovim.vim to test core changes
• .config/nvim/init.vim to test changes to vimrc.sample

If you want to develop/test out your own layers, there are two ways to do it:

1. Point to your own git repository with g:spaceneovim_layers_repository, e.g. let g:spaceneovim_layers_repository = '[email protected]:Tehnix/spaceneovim-layers.git'. This needs to be set before dotspaceneovim/auto-install.
2. Manage the spaceneovim-layers directory yourself - the bootstrap process basically just checks if the directory exists, and if not it clones it down. Symlinking or putting in your own directory here will also work.
