Requirements

Neovim v0.5 or newer is required for tabset to work

Why

Mostly for fun, since it's my first plugin. However, I have seen most people creating files under the ftplugin folder to control the behaviour of tab. I wanted to avoid creating a file for every file type so I made this plugin. Do we really need a plugin for something like this? I don't know, maybe not, but I made it anyway.

Installation

Using packer.nvim

use {
    "FotiadisM/tabset.nvim",
    config = function()
        require("tabset").setup()
    end
}

Configuration

You can define a default tab width with tabwidth in the defaults area, this sets the tabstop and shiftwidth settings in Neovim, as well as the option to expandtab. This settings apply to all file types unless a custom configuration has been given in the languages department, then the default settings are overwritten for that language.

Tabset Defaults

{
    defaults = {
        tabwidth = 4,
        expandtab = true
    },
    languages = {
        go = {
            tabwidth = 4,
            expandtab = false
        }
    }
}

Example Configuration

require("tabset").setup({
    defaults = {
        tabwidth = 4,
        expandtab = true
    },
    languages = {
        go = {
            tabwidth = 4,
            expandtab = false
        },
        {
            filetypes = { "javascript", "typescript", "javascriptreact", "typescriptreact", "json", "yaml" },
            config = {
                tabwidth = 2
            }
        }
    }
})

As you can see in the above example, if you want you can specify the same settings for multiple file types easily. Also, if a value is missing from config, then is populated with the default value. For example, expandtab is set to true for javascript, typescript, ... in the above example because the value was not specified.
