Lazy-vimpack

[!WARNING]
Just for fun, don't expect anything stable.

This plugin is a small wrapper around Nvim's native package manager vim.pack that allows to define plugins as Lazy.nvim Spec. This includes lazy-loading, local plugins, and more.

[!IMPORTANT]
This is not a full replacement for Lazy.nvim. Lazy.nvim is an incredible
piece of software that does way more than just providing lazy-loading
options. Don't expect this to be a full Lazy.nvim replacement, but rather a
familiar way to register your plugins.

Usage

-- in your init.lua
vim.pack.add({ { src = 'https://github.com/yochem/lazy-vimpack' } })
require('lazy-vimpack').add({
  {
    'https://github.com/yochem/jq-playground.nvim',
    opts = {
      cmd = { 'yq' }
    }
  },
  {
    'https://github.com/luukvbaal/statuscol.nvim',
    main = 'statuscol',
    init = function ()
      vim.o.number = true
      vim.o.relativenumber = true
    end,
    config = function()
      local builtin = require('statuscol.builtin')
      require('statuscol').setup({
        relculright = true,
        ft_ignore = { 'qf' },
        segments = {
          { sign = { maxwidth = 1, colwidth = 1 }, click = 'v:lua.ScSa' },
          { text = { builtin.foldfunc, ' ' }, click = 'v:lua.ScFa' },
          { text = { builtin.lnumfunc }, click = 'v:lua.ScLa' },
          {
            sign = { namespace = { 'gitsign' }, fillchar = '│', fillcharhl = '@comment' },
            click = 'v:lua.ScSa',
          },
        },
      })
    end
