  • Halp: Prettier not working on lua files
    4 projects | /r/neovim | 14 May 2022
    Prettier (https://github.com/prettier/vim-prettier) seems to work fine on html and javascript files. But when I run :PrettierCli on a lua file it says No parser and no file path given, couldn't infer a parser. I have treesitter installed. I used treesitter's ":TSInstall: lua" and :checkhealth shows a lua parser installed. Not sure what I'm missing or what to do to troubleshoot from here,

    I have been using vim for much much time now. Everything is going well but every time I want to format my code I got stuck. I have tried many plugins like vim-autoformat which is not formatting correctly (not the major filetypes like JSX, TSX), vim-prettier which is very slow and I have to wait some seconds to get the file formatted correctly, coc-prettier this was my favorite but I shifted to LSP so no usage of this plugin now.

    Personally I like to use plugins (prettier/vim-prettier / fatih/vim-go) for added simplicity and less manual configuring (less filetype based configuring etc.).

    You can then make a vim mapping to the executable or get something like https://github.com/vim-autoformat/vim-autoformat To make setting up (multiple) formatters a little easier.

    There are plenty of code-formatting plugins, like auto-format and neoformat, for vim. But all of them require running a certain command or using :w to trigger formating.
  • Using vim as a laravel/phpstorm developer
    3 projects | dev.to | 3 Jul 2021
    # Using vim as a laravel developer Ok, using vim as a phpstorm replacment, this is prettyyyy close. Here are the steps and the useful parts to know. # First things first, install awesome-vim, this gets 90% of the stuff you need and its maintained git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/amix/vimrc.git ~/.vim_runtime sh ~/.vim_runtime/install_awesome_vimrc.sh # Next I'd say you're going to want phpunit baked in and here is an awesome plugin for that: git clone https://github.com/c9s/phpunit.vim.git ~/.vim_runtime/my_plugins/phpunit.vim # Run inside vim: -- this will let you click and drag panes to resize or jump between (learning vim more and being able to jump panes # makes this unecessary, but i'm not that good yet.) :set mouse=a # So now some sections on easy key commands/shortcuts ## Splitting VIM screen Horizontally and Vertically To open a new VIM window next to the existing one, press + then press . ## Move panes around vim (left/right or top/bottom) Ctrl w + L - Move the current window to the "far right" Ctrl w + H - Move the current window to the "far left" Ctrl w + J - Move the current window to the "very bottom" Ctrl w + K - Move the current window to the "very top" ## Copying everything into clipboard gg"*yG ## Indenting all the code # Still need to look into a more serious formatter like: https://github.com/vim-autoformat/vim-autoformat gg=G # AwesomeVIM Leader Key Shortcut You'll see vim plugins mention , that for awesome view is "," so whenever you see leader hit that key. ## phpunit ### Set the path of phpunit (most cases for me, vendor/bin/phpunit) let g:phpunit_bin = 'phpunit' ### Shortcuts ta - Run all test cases ts - Switch between source & test file tf - Run current test case class # Folding `zo` to open folding `zc` to close folding # NerdTREE nn - Toggles NerdTREE While inside NerdTREE hit "m" to do a number of modifications from renaming, deleting or adding files. # Terminal Typing ":term" will open a terminal pane similar to phpstorm. Of course you can reference https://github.com/amix/vimrc for more tips and tricks, such as w to write a file or to fuzzy search for a file.

    I use Chiel92/vim-autoformat it will work with most popular code formatters out of the box. I have it setup so that it autoformats on save. It's also popular and kept up to date. My config looks like:
