Kakoune and Nixos - Githubissues

bhougland18 commented 4 years ago

what do you put in the kakrc file if you are running Nixos and downloaded the parinfer-rust using the configuration.nix file? I tried just putting the following line in my kakrc and it is giving me an error:

hook global WinSetOption filetype=(clojure|lisp|scheme|racket) %{ parinfer-enable-window -smart }

Sorry for the newbie question.

@bhougland18 I didn't realize this wasn't documented anywhere, so thank you for reporting this.

I just added installation instructions for kakrc+NixOS here. Please let me know if I'm missing anything or could make them clearer.

bhougland18 commented 4 years ago

The instructions are great, I didn't know Nixos had plugin options for Kakoune. This is even better than I hoped. Thank you!

I added this Nixos layer and I can use it manually, but it doesn't turn on my default when I use clojure even though I have this in my kakrc:

hook global WinSetOption filetype=(clojure|lisp|scheme|racket) %{ parinfer-enable-window -smart }

also, when I use it manually it will only format a selection that I have highlighted. What is the best way to have it continually run in a buffer?

eraserhd commented 4 years ago

This should be enough to make it work. Some questions:

Are there any errors in the *debug* buffer?
If you :echo %opt{filetype}<ret> in your clojure buffer, does it say clojure?
Are you sure you've restarted Kakoune (used :kill!)
How are you running it manually? (It has no facility to format only part of a buffer or only the selections - though it may look like that sometimes.)

bhougland18 commented 4 years ago

There is an error in the debug buffer, it says:

error running hook WinSetOption(filetype=clojure)/: no such command: 'parinfer-enable-window'

I verified the file is clojure by running the command you listed.
I restarted Kakoune by using :kill!
I tried to run it by a selection and it didn't do anything, I must have hit something that removed the brace on accident.

Parinfer works but I am still getting the error in my previous comment above in Kakoune's buffer. Is there an easy fix for this?

eraserhd commented 4 years ago

I'm at a loss, honestly. As far as I can tell, you are doing everything right. Can you test if this happens only when you specify a Clojure file on the command-line (for a new Kakoune session)? e.g.

kak path/to/file.clj

vs.

kak
:edit path/to/file.clj

?

I've been wondering if some of the NixOS wrappers that load plugins might load things differently.
