Doesn't work with Packer.nvim?

[madskjeldgaard]

Hi! Thanks for making this awesome plugin. I am trying to install it using Packer. It seems to kind of work. From the command line I can run :lua require'galaxyline' with no errors and I am able to manually populate the galaxyline from the command line, but as soon as I source galaxyline in a lua settings file instead I get massive amounts of errors.

The plugin is installed using the packer.nvim package manager https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim

like this:

use 'glepnir/galaxyline.nvim'
use 'kyazdani42/nvim-web-devicons' -- lua

Having the same issue here so started using Plug again only for galaxyline Would be very nice to figure out why this is. Great to get galaxyline via packer.nvim and the inbuild pack system of nvim also tried with this using the additional packer param - requires for the icons.

    -- Galaxyline
    use {
        'glepnir/galaxyline.nvim',
        -- some optional icons baby
        requires = {'kyazdani42/nvim-web-devicons', opt = true}
    }

no luck

This works for me, do not forget run the command :PackerSync

Thanks! I can seem to get your example to work, with some errors though:

Thanks a lot!!

(but removing the problematic providers seem to solve all for me. Thanks!

[madskjeldgaard]

all good :)

@madskjeldgaard I had fixed diff bug with vim-gitgutter. sorry for this bug. btw saw your pic I found that the separator symbol too small with your font.
