fennel config small issues

[leiserfg]

I have been using fennel + aniseed to set my nvim config and everything works mostly fine but I found a little issue,
To begin with, this is my config structure:

├──  init.lua
├──  fnl
│  └──  my
│     ├──  init.fnl
│     ├──  macros.fnl
│     ├──  mapping.fnl
│     ├──  nvim-tree.fnl
│     ├──  options.fnl
│     ├──  pkgs.fnl
│     ├──  plugins
│     │  ├──  codi.fnl
│     │  ├──  fzf.fnl

I have in the init.lua just the code to load packer and aniseed and to set the aniseed#env to point to my.init
init.fnl loads options and plugins (in that order). Plugins setups packer to load the configs of each plugin on-demand ("pcalling" require). But my problem is that there are some options that have to be set before loading several plugins, as
mapleader, maplocalleader and termguicolors. So I had to set those in init.lua as it's the only way I managed them to be loaded before the plugins configs (and it's required other way they still have the old values).
But I was checking your config and you didn't have to do that. Is there something I'm doing wrong, or missing?

In case you wanna have a look, this my config, https://github.com/leiserfg/dots/tree/master/.config/nvim

Hmm I'm not exactly sure right now, but if you check out how I load my packer plugins I actually directly require the config module myself rather than letting packer do it: https://github.com/Olical/dotfiles/blob/b86ecf285e9eb533e9e2b5953d76f32614f50d36/stowed/.config/nvim/fnl/dotfiles/plugin.fnl#L12-L23

I think I also ran into many issues if I let packer load the config, I could never get it to load fast enough, this way was the safest bet in my config at least. Maybe something similar will help you out too?

I'm going to close this for now, if you still require assistance feel free to reopen. Or maybe use the discussions tab, it's a great way to have a conversation about things that aren't exactly issues, just like a forum 🙂
