Migrate to lazy.nvim #144

Closed glyh closed 1 year ago

glyh commented 1 year ago

As per https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim/issues/1229, packer's author moved to lazy, so I guess the project will be dead soon.

We are planning to move to a in-house package manager called https://github.com/nyoom-engineering/alpacka once it's complete enough to work with nyoom. I'm working on its development slowly though. Expect that to be the replacement

I'm curious, what features it will provides that lazy.nvim can't?

Stupidly fast rollbacks (we have a cache of all previous manifests created through a generations.rkyv file), direct libgit2 intergration (its much faster than the git CLI), and the ability to be used outside of neovim (e.g. direct nix intergration). It's meant to have a similar featureset to lazy but faster and more oxidized (its written in rust)

Integration with nix sounds interesting, ever consider integration with guix as well?

Sounds like a neat idea. I personally use nix so thats why I gave it as an example. I don't know guix that well to say if there will be but if its simple enough to implement why not. If you want to ask more, feel free to make a discussion at https://github.com/nyoom-engineering/alpacka/discussions (I just set it up lol)
