v4.1.0

v4.1.0 Mason.nvim, exposing more config, profiler

Doom nvim's first minor release since v4.0.0. This release comes with lots of improvements.

New Github Organisation

Doom-nvim is now contained within the doom-neovim github organisation. @NTBBloodbath has stepped back from maintaining this project but may still help out with the odd task. Thanks for the work you've done so far @NTBBloodbath.

Mason.nvim

We've switched over to mason.nvim and now null-ls sources will also be automatically installed! This is indicated in the status line which can be clicked to bring up the null-ls menu.

More config options for languages

All language modules are now fully configurable by accessing the settings field of the module.

-- config.lua
local csharp_settings = doom.langs.c_sharp.settings

print(csharp_settings.lsp_name) -- "omnisharp" 
csharp_settings.lsp_name = "omnisharp_mono"

print(csharp_settings.formatting_package) -- "csharpier"
csharp_settings.formatting_package = nil -- Do not install csharpier mason.nvim package
csharp_settings.formatting_provider = "builtins.formatting.uncrustify" -- Use globally installed uncrustify binary

Inspect the source of the language modules to see which settings can be tweaked (not all langs have an LSP or a formatting provider). The next release will focus on documentation of all doom-nvim modules and you will be able to see these options using :h doom.langs.c_sharp or via a website.

Profiler

A new command :DoomProfile has been added that can help diagnose issues with slow startup times. This profiling only watches the internals of doom-nvim and does not profile packages. For that you'll need to check :PackerProfile. The profiler defers almost all computation until you run :DoomProfile so the increase in start up time is trivial. We will use this to continue to make doom-nvim faster. (Side note it can also be a useful trace when debugging issues).

Minor tweaks and improvements

• Using the profiler we were able to identify that Neorg was not being lazy-loaded correctly. This has been resolved and that should improve startup time by 100ms. The next step will be to auto install and configure DAPs for applicable languages.
• <leader>. Browse files keybind is now working correctly.
• <leader>cs Browse document symbols keybind is now working correctly.
• Added an option to ignore gcc/clang warning messages.
  • Add doom.core.treesitter.settings.show_compiler_warning_message = false in config.lua
• Errors during language startup are now more descriptive and human readable.

• fix(langs,vue): Reconfigured to use single LSP instance.
• feat(core): Added :DoomProfile command to profile/trace internal startup time.

Full Changelog: v4.0.5...v4.1.0

v4.0.5

Fixes

v4.0.0

This is a massive rewrite of the entirety of doom-nvim to make it more modular, extendable and maintainable. Please check the updated README.md as a getting started guide.

• doom_modules.lua renamed to modules.lua
• doom_config.lua renamed to config.lua
• doom_userplugins.lua replaced by the doom.use_package(...) helper function.
• refact!: +lsp flags for languages are now redundant, all langs have LSP enabled by default.

  • modules.lua now only has two sections: features and langs
  • Modules defined in lua/doom/modules/SECTION_NAME/MODULE_NAME
  • Each module contains all plugins, config, keybinds, autocommands for a feature or a language.
  • Users can override or add new modules by creating a folder in lua/user/modules/SECTION_NAME/MODULE_NAME (implementing custom modules).
• refact!: config.lua to define your config programatically / imperatively using new helper functions.
• feat: Added an install script (clones doom-nvim, checks out a new branch my-config).
• feat: Added repl module (run code in neovim using iron.nvim).
• feat: Added annotations module (generate code documentation using neogen) to replace broken nvim-tree-docs plugin.
• feat: Added projects module (quickly switch between projects using project.nvim).

• feat: Implemented a nest.nvim inspired keymap syntax that integrates with whichkey and nvim-mapper.
• feat: Added optional impatient.nvim (doom.impatient_enabled = true in config.lua).
  • WARN: This can create bugs when modifying your config and you'll probably have to run :LuaCacheClear.
• refact: Removed develop branch, doom-nvim will now use rolling releases with tagged stable versions.
• refact: Auto updating logic moved into core module
  • Now requires user to use a custom config branch
  • Updating will merge the latest tagged stable version with your custom config branch.
