staline.nvim

TLDR; staline(statusline): A simple statusline for neovim written in lua. stabline(s-tabline): A simple bufferline for neovim written in lua. (sry didnt get a better name.)

Requirements

  • Requires neovim version >= 0.10
  • vim.opt.laststatus=2 in your init.lua for statusline. (or 3 for global line)
  • vim.opt.showtabline=2 in your init.lua for bufferline.
  • vim.opt.termguicolors = true must be set.

Installation

use 'tamton-aquib/staline.nvim'

Note Doing this will install both staline and stabline. But separate setup() is required for each to load up.

A section (left, right or mid) can take:

  • Already defnined section or a simple string:
    • "branch"
    • "a simple string"
  • An array of { highlight, string }
    • { "DiagnosticsError", "danger_icon" }
    • { "CustomHighlight", "simple_string" }
  • A function for dynamic content
    function()
        return "computed_dynamic_string"
    end
    

lsp, lsp_name, file_size sections are not included in the default settings.

Features

  • Lightweight and Fast. staline+stabline took < 1ms. (packers profiling)
  • Unicode current mode info. Needs a Nerd Font to be installed.
  • Has few builtin sections to chose from.
  • Mouse buffer selection on stabline.
  • Uses nvim-web-devicons if installed, else uses a default table.

Cons

  • No ordering or sorting functions for stabline.
  • No lsp info in stabline.
  • No git related info on staline except branch name.

Inspiration and credits:

TODO

  • User configuration options. Needs more work.
  • Git info. Only branch info for now, (or ever)
  • Adding "opt-in" bufferline function.
  • Add config options for bufferline.
  • lsp client name in staline.
  • buf numbers in stabline.
  • transparency problem when changed to 0.7 api.
