nvim plugin to execute on save main source files
This plugin is inspired by Venkat Subramanian usage of TextMate in his Presentations and by TJ with his excellent autocmd tutorial.
By default whenever saving a main.go, main.py, main.rs, main.java, nvim will compile and run, and preview the result in a floating window.
Here's the default configuration:
require('venkat').config.languages = {
go = { cmdline = "go run %s", pattern = "main.go" },
java = { cmdline = "java %s", pattern = "Main.java" },
python = { cmdline = "python %s", pattern = "main.py" },
rust = { cmdline = "cargo -Zscript %s", pattern = "main.rs" },
zig = { cmdline = "zig run %s", pattern = "main.zig" },
}
Install using packer:
use('rgolangh/venkat.nvim')
Expand the config in init.lua
or $HOME/.config/nvim/after/plugin/venkat.lua
:
require('venkat').config.languages = {
go = { cmdline = "go run %s", pattern = "main.go" },
java = { cmdline = "java %s", pattern = "main.java" },
python = { cmdline = "python %s", pattern = "main.py" },
rust = { cmdline = "cargo -Zscript %s", pattern = "main.rs" },
zig = { cmdline = "zig run %s", pattern = "main.zig" },
c = { cmdline = "zig run -lc %s", pattern = "main.c" },
}
