Important: don't forget to call require('mini.pairs').setup() to enable its functionality.

Note: if you are on Windows, there might be problems with too long file paths (like error: unable to create file <some file name>: Filename too long). Try doing one of the following:

Default config

-- No need to copy this inside `setup()`. Will be used automatically.
{
  -- In which modes mappings from this `config` should be created
  modes = { insert = true, command = false, terminal = false },

  -- Global mappings. Each right hand side should be a pair information, a
  -- table with at least these fields (see more in |MiniPairs.map|):
  -- - <action> - one of 'open', 'close', 'closeopen'.
  -- - <pair> - two character string for pair to be used.
  -- By default pair is not inserted after `\`, quotes are not recognized by
  -- `<CR>`, `'` does not insert pair after a letter.
  -- Only parts of tables can be tweaked (others will use these defaults).
  mappings = {
    ['('] = { action = 'open', pair = '()', neigh_pattern = '[^\\].' },
    ['['] = { action = 'open', pair = '[]', neigh_pattern = '[^\\].' },
    ['{'] = { action = 'open', pair = '{}', neigh_pattern = '[^\\].' },

    [')'] = { action = 'close', pair = '()', neigh_pattern = '[^\\].' },
    [']'] = { action = 'close', pair = '[]', neigh_pattern = '[^\\].' },
    ['}'] = { action = 'close', pair = '{}', neigh_pattern = '[^\\].' },

    ['"'] = { action = 'closeopen', pair = '""', neigh_pattern = '[^\\].', register = { cr = false } },
    ["'"] = { action = 'closeopen', pair = "''", neigh_pattern = '[^%a\\].', register = { cr = false } },
    ['`'] = { action = 'closeopen', pair = '``', neigh_pattern = '[^\\].', register = { cr = false } },
  },
}
