Overriding is not working about neovim-ayu HOT 6 CLOSED

Please excuse me further commenting on a closed issue, but the only way I've been able to make the color overrides work (using the colors from the colorscheme as opposed to the hexadecimal colors) is to do the following:

local colors = require('ayu.colors')
colors.generate(true)  -- this is where the "fix" is; true because I want mirage
require('ayu').setup({
  mirage = true,
  overrides = {
    TSInclude = {fg = colors.tag},
    IncSearch = {fg = '#FFFFFF'}
  }
})
require('ayu').colorscheme()

The colors.generate gets called in the call to colorscheme(), but I can't call that before the setup() otherwise it won't honor the overrides. Thus this is the other option:

require('ayu').colorscheme()  -- call before and after the setup
local colors = require('ayu.colors')
require('ayu').setup({
  mirage = true,
  overrides = {
    TSInclude = {fg = colors.tag},
    IncSearch = {fg = '#FFFFFF'}
  }
})
require('ayu').colorscheme()

Perhaps I am doing something incorrect, which necessitates the above?

@benewberg you are right,you need to call generate first. I will add this to readme.

Thanks, now should work, I just made a typo :)

Overriding still seems to not be working if the variable wasn't declared before?
I'm trying to override TreeSitter faces:

require('ayu').setup({
  mirage = true,
  overrides = {
    TSInclude = { fg = colors.tag },
    IncSearch = {fg = '#FFFFFF'}
  }
})

IncSearch seems to work, but not TSInclude...

It works, you can specify new values. Just tested, the new TSInclude appears. Try debugging using so $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/hitest.vim.

@benewberg - confirmed putting this line applies the desired colours.
