Add: target Linux ARM64

[matteocavestri]

I'm using Fedora Asahi Remix and I'd like to use CodeSnap on Linux ARM64. There are other problems, maybe I'm doing something wrong:

• code_font_family = "JetBrainsMono Nerd Font" doesn't work (I have installed it and I use it)
• mac_window_bar = false doesn't work

This is my config:

local home = os.getenv "HOME"
...
  {
    "mistricky/codesnap.nvim",
    build = "make",
    version = "^1",
    lazy = "true",
    cmd = {
      "CodeSnap",
      "CodeSnapSave",
    },
    config = function()
      require("codesnap").setup {
        title = "CodeSnap.nvim",
        -- code_font_family = "CaskaydiaCove Nerd Font",
        code_font_family = "JetBrainsMono Nerd Font",
        mac_window_bar = false,
        has_breadcrumbs = true,
        bg_theme = "default",
        save_path = home .. "/.snap.png",
        watermark_font_family = "Pacifico",
        watermark = "Matteo Cavestri",
      }
    end,
  },

On x86 I only have that problems. Here an example:

Thanks all

Hi there, thx for report this issue. For add arm64 compile target, you can use make build_generator build command to build current target from source:

{ "mistricky/codesnap.nvim", version = "^1", build = "make"}

But I will consider add it into cross-compile config in the future if it's necessary.

The problem about "mac_window_bar" does not work has fix by https://github.com/mistricky/codesnap.nvim/pull/54, but I can't reproduce the "code_font_family" not work bug, they works fine on my machine (x86_64 Arch Linux with wayland session).

Hack Nerd Font

{
  code_font_family = "Hack Nerd Font",
  save_path = "~/Pictures/foo.png",
  bg_theme = "bamboo",
}

PingFang

{
  code_font_family = "PingFang",
  save_path = "~/Pictures/foo.png",
  bg_theme = "bamboo",
}

CaskaydiaCove Nerd Font

{
  code_font_family = "CaskaydiaCove Nerd Font",
  save_path = "~/Pictures/foo.png",
  bg_theme = "bamboo",
}

Thanks for your reply

• The issue about the font was my fault (I use Nerd Font, but only the necessary ones). Now I have installed the whole family and it works, I'm sorry.
• I will wait for v1.1.2 (probably?) to see #54 solved, thanks for your reply.
• I think cross-compile on linux arm64 is useful because of Asahi Linux (Apple SIlicon) and Snapdragon X Elite in the future. I think Linux on ARM will become more relevant in the future.

Now I'm doing some testing and there are some problems on codesnap during install using lazy:

{
    "mistricky/codesnap.nvim",
    build = "make",
    version = "^1",   
}

Using this config I got this error during the install (x86), but after a neovim restart CodeSnap works as intended. Do you have any ideas on this problem?

module generator not found

Hi @matteocavestri Can you show what output of uname -m?

[matteocavestri]

The last issue appears on x86_64

• uname -m --> x86_64
• uname -r --> 6.7.7-200.t2.fc39.x86_64

On apple silicon I'll start to use codesnap after cross compile on Linux ARM64

[mistricky]

Hey @matteocavestri, thx for report this bug, I fix it in latest version, you can install the CodeSnap.nvim to v1.1.5 and try again, If still have this bug, please tell me

[matteocavestri]

Thanks for your support @mistricky In the last version (v1.1.5) this bug is resolved and now on x86 everything is perfect.

If you want to add ARM64 into cross-compile I,ll wait for an update. If you want I can contribute to the project to make it cross-compile on Linux ARM64. (I'm not so good in rust, but I'm learning it)

[matteocavestri]

@mistricky I've read #58. You can add to the build_generator docs some deps. In order to compile on ARM I need:

export CC=gcc
sudo dnf install libuv libuv-devel # On RHEL based systems
sudo apt-get install libtool libuv1-dev # On Debian based systems

[mistricky]

Hi @matteocavestri, thx for your reply.

If you want to add ARM64 into cross-compile I,ll wait for an update.

Maybe not now, as https://github.com/mistricky/codesnap.nvim/pull/58 says I don't wanna add too many cross-compilation target for now.

You can add to the build_generator docs some deps.

That's great idea, I'll add it in README later.

[matteocavestri]

Thanks @mistricky I consider this issue closed

[mistricky]

Okay Thank u for this issue report again :)
