NeoAI is a Neovim plugin that brings the power of OpenAI's GPT-4 directly to your editor. It helps you generate code, rewrite text, and even get suggestions in-context with your code. The plugin is built with a user-friendly interface, making it easy to interact with the AI and get the assistance you need.
Note: This plugin is in early it's early changes and is subject to change.
The primary motivation behind this plugin is to provide a seamless integration of AI chat-assistants, like ChatGPT, into your Neovim coding workflow. The goal is to create a tool that works in harmony with you, allowing you to ask questions and receive assistance without disrupting your focus or coding rhythm. Unlike most existing plugins, which tend to prioritize entertainment over productivity, this plugin emphasizes efficiency and utility. By facilitating a smooth and responsive coding experience, it aims to enhance productivity and make coding more enjoyable.
To install NeoAI, you can use your favorite plugin manager. For example,
with vim-plug, add the following line to your init.vim
or .vimrc
, note that
it also requires the nui dependency
and curl installed on the system:
Plug 'MunifTanjim/nui.nvim'
Plug 'Bryley/neoai.nvim'
Then run :PlugInstall
to install the plugins.
For lazy.nvim:
return {
"Bryley/neoai.nvim",
dependencies = {
"MunifTanjim/nui.nvim",
},
cmd = {
"NeoAI",
"NeoAIOpen",
"NeoAIClose",
"NeoAIToggle",
"NeoAIContext",
"NeoAIContextOpen",
"NeoAIContextClose",
"NeoAIInject",
"NeoAIInjectCode",
"NeoAIInjectContext",
"NeoAIInjectContextCode",
},
keys = {
{ "<leader>as", desc = "summarize text" },
{ "<leader>ag", desc = "generate git message" },
},
config = function()
require("neoai").setup({
-- Options go here
})
end,
}
For packer:
use ({
"Bryley/neoai.nvim",
require = { "MunifTanjim/nui.nvim" },
cmd = {
"NeoAI",
"NeoAIOpen",
"NeoAIClose",
"NeoAIToggle",
"NeoAIContext",
"NeoAIContextOpen",
"NeoAIContextClose",
"NeoAIInject",
"NeoAIInjectCode",
"NeoAIInjectContext",
"NeoAIInjectContextCode",
},
config = function()
require("neoai").setup({
-- Options go here
})
end,
})
To use this plugin make sure you have an OpenAI API key which can be created
here. Save this key in your
environment variables as OPENAI_API_KEY
.
IMPORTANT NOTE : This plugin is not responsible for unintentional purchases made to OpenAI. While using this plugin I would recommend you frequently check the usage of your account and setup limits, so you don't spend more that you can afford.
This plugin introduces 3 modes or ways to interact with the AI models.
In the default mode, a GUI opens up on the side using the :NeoAI
command,
allowing you to chat with the model. This operation is similar to what you
get when using it in a browser, but now it's made more convenient by the GUI
being inside your editor.
In the Prompt Buffer, you can send text by pressing Enter while in insert mode. Additionally, you can insert a newline by using Control Enter. This mapping can be changed in the config.
Also note that the plugin has a feature where the output from the model
automatically gets saved to the g
register and all code snippets get saved to
the c
register. These can be changed in the config.
The Context mode works similarly to the Normal mode. However, you have the
ability to provide additional information about what you want to change. For
instance, if you are reading someone else's code and need a description of what
it does, you can highlight the code in the buffer via the visual mode. Then,
you can run :NeoAIContext
and type something like "Please explain this code
for me" in the prompt buffer.
Additionally, you can highlight some text and request "Fix up the punctuation and grammar in this text" to obtain a better version of the text.
Note that if you run the command without any selection then the whole buffer is passed in.
The final mode is known as "inject mode" by using :NeoAIInject
. This mode
operates without the graphical user interface, allowing you to quickly send a
prompt to the model and have the resulting output automatically inserted below
your cursor. All of this can be done without opening the GUI. Additionally,
there is a sub-mode within Inject mode that can be executed with context.
One feature of this plugin is creating shortcuts, which are explained below.
The plugin includes two built-in shortcuts; the first one reformats selected
text to improve readability, with the default key bind being <leader>as
(A
for AI and S for summarize).
The other built-in shortcut is auto generating git commit messages for you:
Caution: Be aware that overusing this feature might lead to an accumulation of data sent to the model, which can result in high costs. To avoid this, it is recommended that smaller commits be made or the feature be used less frequently. It is imperative to keep track of your usage, which can be monitored through this link
To set up the plugin, add the following code with default values to your init.lua
(or put
under the config
option if using lazy.nvim or packer.nvim.
require("neoai").setup({
-- Below are the default options, feel free to override what you would like changed

The setup function accepts a table of options to configure the plugin. The available options are as follows:
output_popup_text
: Header text shown on the output popup window (default: "NeoAI").input_popup_text
: Header text shown on the input popup window (default: "Prompt").width
: Width of the window as a percentage (e.g., 30 = 30%, default: 30).output_popup_height
