Plugin installed but fails to initialize

[sujitawake]

I am trying to to install the jsonfly plugin on a fresh linux box. It is one of my favorite plugins I use on a regular basis to deal with many JSON files on a regular basis.

I use lazyvim distribution and use Lazy since it is the default package manager. Below are the methods I followed to install the plugin:

1. Created jsonfly.lua under ~/.config/nvim/lua/plugins/ directory.
2. Added the below lua entry

   return {
   "nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim",
   dependencies = {
   "Myzel394/jsonfly.nvim"
   },
   keys = {
   { "<leader>j", "<cmd>Telescope jsonfly<cr>", desc = "Open jsonfly", ft = { "json" }, mode = "n" }
   }
   }

3. Added the following entry in init.lua which is under ~/.config/nvim/

   
   -- bootstrap lazy.nvim
   require("config.lazy")

Load jsonfly

require("telescope").load_extension("jsonfly")

Now, whenever I open any JSON document and press the keyboard shortcut `<leader>j`, nothing pops up.

Am I missing something here?

To provide more context, the below are my neovim versions (trying against two linux flavors in parallel):

NVIM v0.9.5 Build type: Release LuaJIT 2.1.1703358377

system vimrc file: "$VIM/sysinit.vim" fall-back for $VIM: "/usr/share/nvim"

NVIM v0.10.0 Build type: Release LuaJIT 2.1.1713484068 Run "nvim -V1 -v" for more info

Any pointers would be much appreciated.

Hmm, so for me using two files telescope.lua and jsonfly.lua - with telescope loading jsonfly inside "config" works fine - maybe you can try doing that?

You can also take a look at my dotfiles, specifically telescope.lua https://github.com/Myzel394/dotfiles/blob/14e4c7b28b95b7e1438bbbdc95fdef4dfcd75f3b/nvim/lua/plugins/telescope.lua

Great. I will take a look at your telescope.lua configs, add the changes, and see if that resolves the issue.

In the mean time, if you could also share the configs for jsonfly.lua that goes under ~/.config/nvim/lua/plugins/, it would help me diff the changes with yours. Maybe that would provide hint stating why mine doesn't work in the first place !?

I removed the jsonfly.lua again merged it into the telescope.lua - but I just copied your provided example.

@sujitawake did you find a solution to your problem?
