Uninstall plugins

[DavidParkin]

What is the dein way to remove an unwanted plugin?

[Shougo]

• Remove the dein#add() lines

• call dein#recache_runtimepath()

• call map(dein#check_clean(), "delete(v:val, 'rf')")

Thank you. However when I do this I lose dein and have to reinstall. I would just like to remove another plugin and remove any files.

[Shougo]

I don't understand your problem.

dein#check_clean() just removes the invalid plugins.

Well, I repeated the procedure just to make sure it wasn't me doing something stupid. However the Shougo directory was empty. Note my histfile contained no dodgy deletes.

What does the map and the delete var do?

[Shougo]

dein#check_clean() just returns the unneeded plugins path.
So, it can be removed by call map(dein#check_clean(), "delete(v:val, 'rf')").
