a [Nerd Font](https://www.nerdfonts.com/) **_(optional)_** ## 📦 Installation Install the plugin with your package manager: ### [lazy.nvim](https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim) > [!important] > A couple of plugins **require** `snacks.nvim` to be set-up early. > Setup creates some autocmds and does not load any plugins. > Check the [code](https://github.com/folke/snacks.nvim/blob/main/lua/snacks/init.lua) to see what it does. > [!caution] > You need to explicitly pass options for a plugin or set `enabled = true` to enable it. > [!tip] > It's a good idea to run `:checkhealth snacks` to see if everything is set up correctly. ```lua { "folke/snacks.nvim", priority = 1000, lazy = false, ---@type snacks.Config opts = { -- your configuration comes here -- or leave it empty to use the default settings -- refer to the configuration section below bigfile = { enabled = true }, dashboard = { enabled = true }, explorer = { enabled = true }, indent = { enabled = true }, input = { enabled = true }, picker = { enabled = true }, notifier = { enabled = true }, quickfile = { enabled = true }, scope = { enabled = true }, scroll = { enabled = true }, statuscolumn = { enabled = true }, words = { enabled = true }, }, } ``` For an in-depth setup of `snacks.nvim` with `lazy.nvim`, check the [example](https://github.com/folke/snacks.nvim?tab=readme-ov-file#-usage) below. ## ⚙️ Configuration Please refer to the readme of each plugin for their specific configuration.
Default Options ```lua ---@class snacks.Config ---@field animate? snacks.animate.Config ---@field bigfile? snacks.bigfile.Config ---@field dashboard? snacks.dashboard.Config ---@field dim? snacks.dim.Config ---@field explorer? snacks.explorer.Config ---@field gitbrowse? snacks.gitbrowse.Config ---@field image? snacks.image.Config ---@field indent? snacks.indent.Config ---@field input? snacks.input.Config ---@field layout? snacks.layout.Config ---@field lazygit? snacks.lazygit.Config ---@field notifier? snacks.notifier.Config ---@field picker? snacks.picker.Config ---@field profiler? snacks.profiler.Config ---@field quickfile? snacks.quickfile.Config ---@field scope? snacks.scope.Config ---@field scratch? snacks.scratch.Config ---@field scroll? snacks.scroll.Config ---@field statuscolumn? snacks.statuscolumn.Config ---@field terminal? snacks.terminal.Config ---@field toggle? snacks.toggle.Config ---@field win? snacks.win.Config ---@field words? snacks.words.Config ---@field zen? snacks.zen.Config ---@field styles? table ---@field image? snacks.image.Config|{} { image = { -- define these here, so that we don't need to load the image module formats = { "png", "jpg", "jpeg", "gif", "bmp", "webp", "tiff", "heic", "avif", "mp4", "mov", "avi", "mkv", "webm", "pdf", }, }, } ```
Some plugins have examples in their documentation. You can include them in your config like this: ```lua { dashboard = { example = "github" } } ``` If you want to customize options for a plugin after they have been resolved, you can use the `config` function: ```lua { gitbrowse = { config = function(opts, defaults) table.insert(opts.remote_patterns, { "my", "custom pattern" }) end }, } ``` ## 🚀 Usage See the example below for how to configure `snacks.nvim`. ```lua { "folke/snacks.nvim", priority = 1000, lazy = false, ---@type snacks.Config opts = { bigfile = { enabled = true }, dashboard = { enabled = true }, explorer = { enabled = true },

Instead, you can use the picker to see all the highlight groups. ```lua Snacks.picker.highlights({pattern = "hl_group:^Snacks"}) ```
