Windline

Animation statusline. Use lua + luv make some 🔥🔥🔥

Features:

demo

demo Displaying two different animated status line (markdown and lua file types).

Intro

Windline supports having a different status line per file type. terminal,nvimtree,qf,help,spectre,lsptrouble,diffview,lspoutline. It also supports displaying a different status line on inactive windows

We offer a built-in animations and color library for status line. I know it is not useful but why not :).

It is not loaded if you don't use animations.

demo

Setup

You can create your own custom status line, using as a base/example the included status line setups is recommended for new users.

local windline = require('windline')
windline.setup({
  statuslines = {
    --- you need to define your status lines here
  }
})


Included Status lines

You can also use any of this status lines and avoid setting up your own (skipping the example above) by just requiring it.

bubble line

Bubble

require('wlsample.bubble')

bubble line

Bubble2

require('wlsample.bubble2')

evil line

evilline

require('wlsample.evil_line')

airline

airline

require('wlsample.airline')
--  the animated alternative. you can toggle animation by press `<leader>u9`
require('wlsample.airline_anim')

vscode

vscode

require('wlsample.vscode')

basic animation

basic animation

require('wlsample.basic')

wind animation

wind animation

require('wlsample.wind')

luffy

luffy animation

require('wlsample.airline_luffy')

[cava]

cava animation

-- only support linux it need install cava
lua require("windline.components.cava").toggle()

Remember windline can display a different status line per file type, so you can have bubble line for markdown or latex file, and airline for your working file.

You need install gitsigns.nvim to get git information.

Swap

Status line

You need to define a default status line that will be used on all filetypes that do not define a custom one.

local default = {
    filetypes={'default'},
    active={
      --- components...
    },
    inactive={
      --- components...
    }
}

local explorer = {
    filetypes = {'fern', 'NvimTree','netrw'},
    active = {
        {'  ', {'white', 'black'} },
    },
    --- show active components when the window is inactive
    always_active = true,
    --- It will display a last window statusline even that window should inactive
    show_last_status = true
}

components

A component is defined as {text ,{ fgcolor, bgcolor } }


local default = {
    filetypes={'default'},
    active={
      --- components...
      {'[',{'red', 'black'}},
      {'%f',{'green','black'}},
      {']',{'red','black'}},

      -- empty color definition uses the previous component colors
      {"%=", ''} ,

      -- hightlight groups can also be used
      {' ','StatusLine'},

      {' %3l:%-2c ',{'white','black'}}
    },
}

demo

A text function has a bufnr and winid parameter that can be used to get data from the buffer or window

A text function can return a group of child components

local lsp_comps = require('windline.components.lsp')

basic.lsp_diagnos = {
    name = 'diagnostic',
    hl_colors = {
        red_text = {'red', 'black'}
    },
    text = function(bufnr, winid, width)
        if lsp_comps.check_lsp() then
            return {

                { '[ lsp: ', 'red_text' },
                -- red_text define in hl_colors. It make easy cache value first
                -- because text function run multiple time on redraw

                { lsp_comps.lsp_name() , 'IncSearch'},
                -- it use a hightlight group IncSearch

                -- but you can create a hightlight on child component too
                { lsp_comps.lsp_error({ format = '  %s' }), {'red','black'} },

                { lsp_comps.lsp_warning({ format = '  %s' }), {'yellow',''} },
                -- it have same background black with the previous component

                { lsp_comps.lsp_hint({ format = '  %s' }), {'', 'blue'} },
                -- it have same foreground yellow with the previous component

                { ' ] ' },
            }
        end
        return ''
    end,
}

Don't do something complex on component. It run multiple times when statusline rendering. If you want to do that you need to use cache component

<h4>Never use a Job or run system command inside component. You need to use it inside cache component </h4>

Windline doesn't have a component condition just return an empty string ''or nil to remove it.

It doesn't have seperator or padding so you can add it by create a child component.

More info

Width setting

you can hide components by setting a minimum window width


local git_comps = require('windline.components.git')

-- short syntax
local git_branch = { git_comps.git_branch(), {'white', 'black'}, 100}

-- syntax using table
local git_branch = {
    text = git_comps.git_branch(),
    hl_colors = {'white','black'},
    --- component not visible if window width is less than 100
    width = 100,
}

Colors

Windline use a terminal color. It generate from your colorscheme terminal. Every time you change colorschemes it will be generate a new colors to map with your colorscheme

demo

Color name is use to define component and animation

-- sample
local colors = {
  black         = "",  -- terminal_color_0,
  red           = "",  -- terminal_color_1,
  green         = "",  -- terminal_color_2,
  yellow        = "",  -- terminal_color_3,
  blue          = "",  -- terminal_color_4,
  magenta       = "",  -- terminal_color_5,
  cyan          = "",  -- terminal_color_6,
  white         = "",  -- terminal_color_7,
  black_light   = "",  -- terminal_color_8,
  red_light     = "",  -- terminal_color_9,
  green_light   = "",  -- terminal_color_10,
  yellow_light  = "",  -- terminal_color_11,
  blue_light    = "",  -- terminal_color_12,
  magenta_light = "",  -- terminal_color_13,
  cyan_light    = "",  -- terminal_color_14,
  white_light   = "",  -- terminal_color_15,

  NormalFg      = "",  -- hightlight Normal fg
  NormalBg      = "",  -- hightlight Normal bg
  ActiveFg      = "",  -- hightlight StatusLine fg
  ActiveBg      = "",  -- hightlight StatusLine bg
  InactiveFg    = "",  -- hightlight StatusLineNc fg
  InactiveBg    = "",  -- hightlight StatusLineNc bg
}
return colors

If you need to define a new color to use on animation you need to define it on the colors_name function.


local windline = require('windline')

windline.setup({
  -- this function will run on ColorScheme autocmd
  colors_name = function(colors)
      --- add new colors
      colors.FilenameFg = colors.white_light
      colors.FilenameBg = colors.black

      -- this color will not update if you change a colorscheme
      colors.gray = "#fefefe"

      -- dynamically get color from colorscheme hightlight group
      local searchFg, searchBg = require('windline.themes').get_hl_color('Search')
      colors.SearchFg = searchFg or colors.white
      colors.SearchBg = searchBg or colors.yellow

      return colors
  end,

})

you can create a theme for a colorscheme gruvbox

animations

animations with colors_name from colors defined above

animation.animation({
   data = {
        {'red_light',efffects.rainbow()},
        {'green_light',efffects.rainbow()},
        {'cyan_light',efffects.blackwhite()},
        {'FilenameBg',efffects.rainbow()},
        {'FilenameFg',efffects.blackwhite()}
    },
    timeout = 10,
    delay = 200,
    interval = 100,
})

you can create multi animation but only list of data on animation is sync

effects

UsageKEY
rainbow()a rainbow animation color
blackwhite()toggle between black and white
list_color({..list_color})swap color from list
flashyH([number 0-360])increase H on every step of animation
flashyS([number 0.01 - 1)increase S on every step of animation
flashyL([number 0.01 - 1)increase L on every step of animation
-- you can write your own effect
local Hsl = require('wlanimation.hsl')
animation.animation({
   data = {
        {'red',efffects.wrap(function(color)
            return HSL.new(color.H + 1, color.S, color.L)
        end)},
    },
    timeout = 100,
    delay = 200,
    interval = 100,
})

Global statusline setting

windline.setup({
  -- hide that filetype on global statusline
    global_skip_filetypes = {
        'NvimTree',
        'lir',
    }
})

If that filetype display on floating window (popup).It will always hiding.You can change that behavior create a custome statusline

local telescope = {
    filetypes = {'TelescopePrompt'},
    active = {
        {'  ', {'white', 'black'} },
    },
    --- for global statusline (laststatus = 3). 
    --- by default it skip all floating window on global statusline but you can
    --- change it here
    global_show_float = false
}
