How to install manually without NeoBundle? #10

Open Strykar opened 1 year ago

NeoBundle seems outdated, can't I just add this stuff to my .vimrc or something?

Hi,

you can just install the files in your vim's site directory. In my case, with NeoVim, I use the following process:

cd ~/work/git
git clone https://github.com/nfnty/vim-nftables.git

cd ~/.local/share/nvim/site/

 # create directories if they don't exist yet / this is the first time manually installing a plugin. otherwise skip and use existing directories.
mkdir ftdetect ftplugin indent syntax

for x in ftdetect ftplugin indent syntax; do ln -s ~/work/git/vim-nftables/$x/nftables.vim $x/; done

Of course, this is just my opinionated approach, but maybe it's useful. :)

If you are using vim 8.*, you can use native vim packages (:h packages) to create the folder structure under ~/.vim/pack then place the packages to the according folder. After this step, vim would auto load the plugins/packages.
