Installation

Method 1

To use nixvimed in your Neovim setup, you can add it as a Flake input in your flake.nix file:

inputs.nixvimed.url = "github:sphamtambo/nixvimed";

Followed by adding the nixvimed to your system configuration:

Via home-manager:

{
  inputs,
  system,
  ...
}: {
  home.packages =  [
    inputs.nixvimed.packages.${system}.default
  ];
}

Via NixOS;

{
  inputs,
  system,
  ...
}: {
  environment.systemPackages =  [
    inputs.nixvimed.packages.${system}.default
  ];
}

As an Overlay

{inputs, ...}: {
  overlays = final: prev: {
    neovim = inputs.nixvimed.packages.${prev.system}.default;
  };
}

Method 2

Alternatively you can run nixvimed via the following command:

nix run 'github:sphamtambo/nixvimed'
