failwind.nvim

Failwind.nvim is not ready for production. You shouldn't even be LOOKING at this repo, but diabloproject was nice enough to gift some subs.

So... here it is :)

The goal of failwind.nvim is to allow you to write neovim config in a declarative way using CSS. As we all know, css is a very powerful and beautiful language, and we thought that more software should use it.

Installation

Step 0: Install neovim

nightly or stable > 0.11.0 is recommended

Step 1: Install nvim-treesitter & css parser

You will need nvim-treesitter for failwind to work becuase it relies on tresitter queries to parse your init.css file. Most distributions and configs have it out of the box, but if your does not, refer to nvim-treesitter docs. Then run :TSInstall css or add css to ensure_installed.

Step 2: Add failwind.nvim as a dependency

Install failwind using your favorite package manager. E.g. with Lazy:

{
	"tjdevries/failwind.nvim",
	init = function()
		require('failwind').evaluate('<your-init-css-file>')
	end,
	-- This ensures that nvim-treesitter is installed and loaded **before** failwind.
	dependencies = {"nvim-treesitter"}
}

init.css file

You can look at the examples/kickstart.css for some inspiration.

Basic operations

lua("lua-expression")

Calls lua expression. For example: lua("vim.diagnostic.setloclist()")

vim-fn-stdpath("path")

Calls vim function vim.fn.stdpath("path") You can call any lua function with this syntax.

Failwind expects your init.css file to contain following sections:

• options
• keymaps
• plugins
• highlight
• autocmds

options section

This section is used to set global options for Neovim. Do your usual vim.opt calls here.

keymaps section

This section is used to define keymaps. for each vim mode (normal, visual, etc.) it can have a ruleset with keymaps for that mode. Each keymap is a table with pseudoclass key("key")and the following fields:

• command: string with the name of the command to call. Use this field to set specific command to execute. For example: "Telescope find_files"
• action: string or call expression to execute. For example: lua("vim.diagnostic.setloclist()") (lua call) or <C-\><C-n> (literally key presses)
• desc: Description of the keymap. For example: "Search Neovim Files"

plugins section

This section is used to define plugins. It is a ruleset with :repo("repo-name") pseudoclasses as keys. Inside each ruleset you can define the following things:

• setup: array of strings with names of plugins to setup from this repo. For example: "mason" "mason-lspconfig"
• :setup("plugin-name") pseudoclasses to set up plugins from this repo. The ruleset provided will be used as plugin options to setup function.
• depends: array of strings with names of plugins to be installed/loaded prior to the target plugin. For example: "nvim-treesitter" "nvim-treesitter-textobjects"
• keymaps: See keymaps section. All other fields will be directly passed to plugin's table
