hologram.nvim VS plenary.nvim

Awesome! What's the difference between this and hologram? Would you like to support sixel so that it can be used in other terminals like alacritty?

hologram doesn't work for you? Although, there's a bit of an issue with images disappearing and to get them back I have to replace a character in the image's link.

There are some plugins to display images in nvim (edluffy/hologram.nvim), but it depends on the terminal and graphic protocol you use

kitty terminal can show image https://github.com/edluffy/hologram.nvim but i use peek.nvim to preview markdown

Hi good stuff! Is there any plans for hologram.nvim integration?

Nope, I used the hologram.nvim plugin to display the images, and it uses the kitty graphics protocol. That is why it only works with kitty.

The images can be drawn anywhere on the screen. Drawing inside an editor isn't too much work but requires some bookkeeping to handle scrolling, cropping and windows closing. See https://github.com/edluffy/hologram.nvim for an example of what is possible.

Im actually using hologram.nvim integrated with neorg (it only works in kitty + pngs for now)

Basic image manipulation/preview. This includes: 1) the ability to call external tools (draw.io/inkscape, etc) for simple image creation and insertion on the fly 2) removing an image link from markdown also removes the corresponding file 3) file preview inside neovim buffer. I just discovered a plugin that make this possible: hologram.nvim, has anyone tried it out?

we can create a function to open a pop up menu using plenary.popup like this, you need to install neovim plenary if you don't already have it https://github.com/nvim-lua/plenary.nvim

If you are really interested in doing this yourself with loop, you should take a look at either plenary.job or netman.shell (I made the latter) as both are very well documented.

I feel this :( That said, alot of plugins rely on plenary.nvim. Its up to you if you determine this is "non-essential" or not. It will almost certainly be available for you to use already.

The big reason I ask is that reaching out to an external python shell to run commands (disregard the fact that its python running) is going to be much slower than using the in built lua JIT interpreter. Additionally, plenary has a built in curl function so you don't have to "reinvent the wheel".

There is also test harness in nvim-lua/plenary.nvim with a slightly different design, but still usable of course.

I am simply using busted or more specifically vusted which is a wrapper around busted for Neovim. It should be quite straightforward to learn the basics, I would say you mostly need to know these functions: describe, it (these are used to structure your test cases) and assert.are_same (to check for table equality). Some people are also using plenary which is also based on busted.

It's based on nvim-lua-plugin-template, but uses Nix flakes to run plenary.nvim tests.
