Vim syntax plugin for IVy

This is a Vim syntax plugin for the IVy language, styled after its Emacs major mode and the language lexer.

Installation

Using Vundle

1. Add Plugin 'dijkstracula/vim-ivy' to ~/.vimrc
2. vim +PluginInstall +qall

Using Pathogen

1. cd ~/.vim/bundle
2. git clone https://github.com/dijkstracula/vim-ivy.git

Using NeoVim and Vim-Plug

1. Add Plug 'dijkstracula/vim-ivy' to your e.g. ~/.config/nvim/plugins.vim
2. Save and run :PlugInstall

Using Packer.nvim

1. Add use 'dijkstracula/vim-ivy to your require('packer').startup callback.
2. Run :PackerSync

TODO: actually test Pathogen install commands; they were stolen from elsewhere.

Syntax checking (beta!)

To perform syntax checking on an open buffer, run :make on the Command Line. Or, to always check on save, add autocmd BufWritePost *.ivy make to your .vimrc file. The QuickFix window will be populated with errors from ivyc.

Note: this feature is currently experimental as it requires a bit of hacking around ivyc; for details, see doit.sh and please file issues if you come across any. Additionally, it's currently a synchronous operation, even in Vim 8 and NeoVim; hopefully Ivy 2 will expose an LSP that any editor can communicate with down the road.

Bundling

Typically, distribution via Git is prefered; however, for uploading to e.g. vim.org it's useful to bundle the contents of the repository as a tarball as well.

$ git pull
$ git archive -o ./vim-ivy.tar.gz HEAD
$ scp vim-ivy.tar.gz ...

Contributing

PRs welcome - this is definitely a work in progress.
