NixOS

[agluck91]

Hello. I use NixOS and Mac as my two main machines. In both I use nix package manager to configure my systems and install vim plugins.

There is a nix package for snacks but I have not been able to get it to work. I have been working on it for a solid day. I really love this plugin.

I am not using lazy and based on what I saw in the code was snacks has a setup function where you can pass an opt object. It does not seem to matter what I do it is not bringing up the sub modules like notifier or dashboard. There are no errors and I have validated that it is loading the lua file where it is configured. When I try to run Snacks in the command box there is no editor commands for it at all.

So in my lua file I run require("snacks).setup({opts})

Can some one help me figure what I am doing wrong. Are these sub modules other plugins that should be installed. Or is this all in one.

Run :checkhealth snacks.

Doing setup is indeed what you need to do.

ERROR No healthcheck found for "snacks" plugin.

I have tried both the full config on the repo, and then this trimmed down one. I also added dashboard and it did not show. Health checks always say no plugin found. And Snacks is not an editor command.

require("snacks").setup({
	notifier = {
		enabled = true,
		timeout = 3000, -- default timeout in ms
	},
})

And here is my implementation in my neovim home manager modules.

withConfig = with pkgs.vimPlugins; [
        {
          plugin = snacks-nvim;
          config = lib.fileContents ../../config/nvim/plugins/snacks.lua;
        }
...

I have about 20 other plugins loaded including the amazing noice!

Then you don't have snacks installed...

I am not sure why it is not installing is the question though. I am adding it like every other plugin I have added.

Is each submodule its own plugin as well? Does Snacks do some magic under the hood?

[agluck91]

Maybe I need to message the nix maintainer for snacks. I looked at the nix packages repo for unstable and it looked right with the right commit hash.

This functionality has been added to nixvim. I will just be switching to that.
