Lazyman Menu Configuration

The lazyman menu interface supports a menu-driven configuration of the LazyIde Neovim configuration. Many of the options, settings, and plugins used by LazyIde can be configured using this menu system.

To view the LazyIde configuration menu, execute the lazyman command and select the LazyIde Config option by entering the option number or LazyIde Config at the menu prompt.

Get/Set Configuration Script

The LazyIde configuration menu includes the capability to get and set configuration values for the LazyIde Neovim configuration. This is done using a new Neovim feature introduced in version 0.9, the ability to invoke Neovim with a Lua script:

1
nvim -l /path/to/some_script.lua

The specified Lua script is executed in the Neovim runtime environment and then Neovim exits.

Lazyman uses the Lua script ~/.config/nvim-Lazyman/scripts/get_conf.lua to manage Neovim configuration settings. This script can retrieve the current value of a setting, set the value of a supported setting, list all supported setting names, or display the location of the Neovim configuration.

Lazyman configuration script

The ~/.config/nvim-Lazyman/scripts/lazyman_config.sh script is used to display the Lazyman Neovim Configuration menus and invoke the get_conf.lua script to get and set configuration values. The usage message of lazyman_config.sh:

Usage: lazyman_config [-a] [-d] [-i] [-m menu] [-s name value] [-u]
Where:
    -a lists all configuration names and exits
    -d specifies debug mode
    -i indicates initialize conditional plugin configurations and exit
    -m 'menu' specifies the menu to display (conf, form, lsp, plugins)
    -s 'name value' indicates set the value of configuration 'name' to 'value'
      if 'name' is 'get' then 'value' is the configuration name to get
      if 'name' is a table then 'value' is the table entry to set
      follow 'value' with 'enable' or 'disable'
    -u displays this usage message and exits
Examples:
  Display the 'Formatters' menu
    lazyman_config -m form
  Set the theme to 'kanagawa'
    lazyman_config -s theme kanagawa
  Get the theme setting
    lazyman_config -s get theme
  Disable 'gopls' language server
    lazyman_config -s lsp_servers gopls disable

Get/Set configuration script source

The get_conf.lua script is used to get or set configuration values for those Lazyman Neovim configurations with a lazyman menu configuration interface.

-- Invoke with 'nvim -l get_conf.lua conf_name'
-- Where 'conf_name' is:
--   - one of the entries in lua/configuration.lua
--   - the keyword 'config_home' to get configuration location info
--   - the keyword 'list_names' to lists all configuration entry names
--   - an option/variable name to retrieve its value
--
-- For example, to retrieve the Lazyman configuration 'namespace' setting:
--
-- #!/bin/bash
-- NVIM_APPNAME="nvim-Lazyman" \
--   nvim -l ~/.config/nvim-Lazyman/scripts/get_conf.lua namespace
--
-- or, to retrieve the value of the 'mouse' option in the LazyIde config:
--
-- #!/bin/bash
-- NVIM_APPNAME="nvim-LazyIde" \
--   nvim -l ~/.config/nvim-Lazyman/scripts/get_conf.lua mouse
