Note: Active developement on NeoBundle has stopped. The only future changes will be bug fixes.

Please see Dein.vim -- A faster, well-tested plugin manager for Vim and Neovim. It can do everything NeoBundle does, including asynchronous installs.

About

NeoBundle is a next generation Vim plugin manager. This plugin is based on Vundle, but I renamed and added tons of features, while Vundle tends to stay simple.

Requirements:

Recommends:

Note: In :NeoBundleUpdate/:NeoBundleInstall commands, you can parallel update by vimproc, but you cannot do other work unlike Unite interface.

Note: Neobundle is not a stable plugin manager. If you want a stable plugin manager, you should use Vundle plugin. It well works widely and it is more tested. If you want to use extended features, you can use neobundle.

Vundle features: Stable, simple, good for beginners

Neobundle features: Early development (may break compatibility), very complex, good for plugin power users (for example, 50+ plugins and over 1000 lines .vimrc, ...)

Note: Neobundle only accepts "https" or "ssh". https://glyph.twistedmatrix.com/2015/11/editor-malware.html

How it works

Plugins are defined in NeoBundle by calling NeoBundle '<plugin repository location>'. NeoBundle assumes Github as the default location for plugins, so for most plugins you can simply use NeoBundle 'username/plugin' rather than using the absolute URL of the plugin. These calls should be made in your .vimrc file. Once you have defined these, you must call NeoBundleInstall, and NeoBundle will clone all of the repos into the desired folder (generally ~/.vim/bundle) and load them into Vim. If you want to update these repositories, simply call NeoBundleUpdate.

A few other useful commands:

Refer to :help neobundle for more examples and for a full list of commands.

Quick start

1. Install NeoBundle

If you are using Unix/Linux or Mac OS X.

  1. Run below script.

    $ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Shougo/neobundle.vim/master/bin/install.sh > install.sh
$ sh ./install.sh

Complete.

If you want to install manually or you are using Windows.

  1. Setup NeoBundle:

    $ mkdir ~/.vim/bundle
$ git clone https://github.com/Shougo/neobundle.vim ~/.vim/bundle/neobundle.vim

  2. Configure bundles:

    Sample .vimrc:

    " Note: Skip initialization for vim-tiny or vim-small.
if 0 | endif

if &compatible
  set nocompatible               " Be iMproved
endif

" Required:
set runtimepath+=~/.vim/bundle/neobundle.vim/

" Required:
call neobundle#begin(expand('~/.vim/bundle/'))

" Let NeoBundle manage NeoBundle
" Required:
NeoBundleFetch 'Shougo/neobundle.vim'

" My Bundles here:
" Refer to |:NeoBundle-examples|.
" Note: You don't set neobundle setting in .gvimrc!

call neobundle#end()

" Required:
filetype plugin indent on

" If there are uninstalled bundles found on startup,
" this will conveniently prompt you to install them.
NeoBundleCheck

2. Install configured bundles

Launch vim, run :NeoBundleInstall or :Unite neobundle/install (required unite.vim) Or Command run bin/neoinstall or vim +NeoBundleInstall +qall

How to test

Run make test command in command line(required vim-themis).

Advantages over Vundle

  1. Plugin prefixed command name (:Bundle vs :NeoBundle).
  2. Support for vimproc (asynchronous update/install).
  3. Support for unite.vim interface (update/install/search).
  4. Support for revision locking.
  5. Support for multiple version control systems (Subversion/Git).
  6. Support for lazy initialization for optimizing startup time.
  7. and so on...

Tips

If you use a single .vimrc across systems where build programs are named differently (e.g. GNU Make is often gmake on non-GNU systems), the following pattern is useful:

let g:make = 'gmake'
if system('uname -o') =~ '^GNU/'
        let g:make = 'make'
endif
NeoBundle 'Shougo/vimproc.vim', {'build': {'unix': g:make}}
