E5108: Error executing lua .../.config/nvim/plugged/nvim-tree.lua/lua/lib/renderer.lua:271: Expected lua string

Hello, I am getting this error too. May I know why you closed this issue?

[kyazdani42]

not sure why this would happen, can i have more informations please ?

[braidn]

@kyazdani42 seeing this as well. The steps for me to reproduce it are:

1. Open a directory using: nv .
2. Toggle nvim-tree.lua using 'LuaTreeToggle`
3. Sometimes just toggling the tree will throw the error or sometimes I need to:
4. Open a folder in the tree.

Hopefully this helps.

this doesn't help much, i'd need something like a minimal vimrc you can reproduce the error with, and a list of filename maybe.

Sure! By list of filenames you mean included plugins?

[kyazdani42]

Nope, the list of filenames from the folder where the bug arise.

this issue arise when you disable the folder icon. I'm going to look into this

Amazing! I actually never got the folder icon to show up quite correct. It's likely due to the font. Although it does work for some reason with file icons?

[kyazdani42]

maybe your fonts don't display some icons. And some terminals have bad issues with font rendering.
