🌿 nvim-conan

A Lua-crafted bridge between Neovim and Conan, the C/C++ package manager.

✨ Features

• 🧱 Project Initialization
  Seamlessly set up your C/C++ projects with Conan integration.

• 🧠 Command Palette via :Conan
  Use :Conan <subcommand> for interactive Conan actions:

  • install: Install dependencies
  • build: Build using Conan profiles
  • lock: Create or update lockfiles
  • search: Search Conan cache or remotes
  • create: Package your recipe
  • export: Export the recipe
  • export_package: Export prebuilt packages
  • upload: Upload recipes to remotes (with Telescope-powered remote and ref selection!)

• 🔭 Telescope Integration
  Intuitive fuzzy-pickers for selecting remotes and cached packages before upload.

• ⚡ Neovim Native
  No Python wrappers. No frills. Pure Lua.

⚙️ Installation

Using lazy.nvim:

return {
  "mm4cN/nvim-conan",
  dependencies = {
    "nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim",
  },
}

🔧 Configuration

Default setup:

require("conan").setup()

This checks whether Conan is available, bootstraps config files, and provides :Conan commands.

On first use in a Conan project, an interactive wizard creates a conan-config.json in your project root. The plugin also recognises conan-config.json placed inside a .vscode/ subdirectory, so teams that already keep per-project settings there don't need a duplicate file.

📋 Requirements

Neovim: 0.12 or higher

Lua: 5.1+ (included with Neovim)

Conan: 2.x — installed manually and available on your PATH

Telescope.nvim: Required for interactive remote/ref pickers (used by upload)

Run :checkhealth conan to verify the required components are available.
