fzf' extension doesn't exist or isn't installed: loop or previous error loading module 'telescope._extensions.fzf'

[crazycodestar]

Just for context I'm trying to set this up on windows

when I try require('telescope').load_extension('fzf') and try to source the file :so % I get an error

Error detected while processing :source (no file):
E5108: Error executing lua ...lugged\telescope.nvim/lua/telescope/_extensions/init.lua:10: 'fzf' extension doesn't exist or isn't installed: loop or previous error loading module 'telescope._extensions.fzf'

I have tried using both cmake and make to re-install telescope-fzf-native.nvim
I even tried the make clean && make from this issue

Same. I've installed fzf with scoop, and it's accessible from the powershell that is running nvim, but I still get the error.

Running make inside the telescope-fzf-native.nvim folder doesn't seem to compile, instead just opening a new instance of CMD:

PS C:\Users\luizh\AppData\Local\nvim-data\site\pack\packer\start\telescope-fzf-native.nvim> make
cmd //C mkdir build

I am sorry, i dont have a windows machine to test anything but i think it might be a regression introduced with the last commit #87

#89 does things but i cant validate if that fixes the issue for you guys. It might just make things worse just like #87

[luiz00martins]

@Conni2461 No biggie. Just ping me when #89 gets published, and I'll test it.

What you are using for compiling?

[luiz00martins]

@dev4s make, installed by scoop

[crazycodestar]

@dev4s i'm also using make installed by scoop. I also tried cmake

[Conni2461]

I would have loved if someone could have tried out #89 prior to merging but it is what it is.

I just merged the PR, can anyone confirm, that the issue is resolved. Thanks :)

[luiz00martins]

@Conni2461 Yep, looks fixed to me. Thanks!

I make the mistake of not having installed make and mingw when opening my pre-configured neovim... after installing them I didn't know what to do, but I found the directory where lazy keeps the files in ~\AppData\Local\nvim-data\lazy\telescope-fzf-native.nvim and after executing make in that directory all is fine.

Thanks!

Delete in the AppData/Local/ folder NVIM-DATA and INSTALL Dependenncies

scoop install gcc
scoop install fd
scoop install make
scoop install cmake

Open Neovim Enjoy!
