nix run for your treesitter grammars and arbitrary plugins

Provides commands to easily install treesitter grammars and plugins temporarily.

Setup

put this in your init.lua

require('nixrun').setup({})

Usage

These commands are provided

NixRunTSGrammar # installs a treesitter parser
NixRunPlugin    # installs a vim plugin

• Treesitter parsers are taken from nixpkgs#vimPlugins.nvim-treesitter.builtGrammars

• Plugins are taken from nixpkgs#vimPlugins, or a custom flake: yourFlake#some-plugin, or a flakeref URL: github:t-troebst/perfanno.nvim

• Tab completion is available for the simple nixpkgs parsers/plugins

Example

" Installing treesitter grammars:
NixRunTSGrammar java    " please reload your buffer after install to use the treesitter grammar

" Installing a plugin
NixRunPlugin oil-nvim   " installs nixpkgs#vimPlugins.oil-nvim + dependencies
NixRunPlugin custom-flake#custom-plugin       " installs a custom packaged plugin
NixRunPlugin github:t-troebst/perfanno.nvim   " pull the plugin source from github (not a nix package)

Note

• I recommend you pin your nixpkgs registry by adding this to your NixOS/home-manager config (mismatched neovim and grammar versions might cause unexpected errors):

  nix.registry.nixpkgs.flake = inputs.nixpkgs;
