Hi!
I would like to see in my bar the complete path, not just the filename. Say I am in Documents and open the file Documents/folder1/file1. I would like to see folder1/file1, as I had before with lightline. Hope it is possible. Thanks

If you so init.vim the statusline colors seem to disable and some extra separator icons get added. This seems to resolve itself after switching buffers and the statusline being refreshed. This does require opening a new buffer if you only have one open.

Hi!
I would like to insert a vertical bar | in the bar if at least one diagnostic is present (so far just added check on Error).
I am using nvim-lspconfig, and tried using the following in the configuration file

local lsp,api = vim.lsp,vim.api
local function get_nvim_lsp_diagnostic(diag_type)
  if vim.tbl_isempty(lsp.buf_get_clients(0)) then return '' end
  local active_clients = lsp.get_active_clients()
  if active_clients then
    local count = 0
    for _, client in ipairs(active_clients) do
       count = count + lsp.diagnostic.get_count(api.nvim_get_current_buf(),diag_type,client.id)
    end
    if count ~= 0 then return count end
  end
end
function DiagCheck()
  if not vim.tbl_isempty(lsp.buf_get_clients(0)) then
    if not (get_nvim_lsp_diagnostic('Error') == nil) then
      return '|'
    end
  end
  return ''
end

gls.left[11] = {
  DiagnosticBar = {
    provider = DiagCheck,
    highlight = {colors.fg,colors.line_bg}
  }
}

As you can see, it is basically no more than a paste from the provider_diagnostic.lua file. However, I now have an error:

/home/bobicino/.config/nvim/plug-conf/galaxyline.lua:190: attempt to

Could you give me some tips?

Hi, its a nice plugin. Thanks for this one 👍

I would like to see the count of all open buffers on my status line. How can I add that to statusline?

I am using a light and dark galaxyline theme and it works great normally. However when I change my neovim colorscheme from galaxyline doesn't change with it like I'd expect.

M = {}

M.dark = {
    bg = "#282c34",
    bg2 = "#212026",
    base = "#b2b2b2",
    comp = "#c56ec3",
    act1 = "#222226",
    DarkGoldenrod2 = "#eead0e", -- normal / unmodified
    chartreuse3 = "#66cd00", --insert
    SkyBlue2 = "#7ec0ee", -- modified
    chocolate = "#d2691e", -- replace
    gray = "#bebebe", -- visual
    plum3 = "#cd96cd", -- read-only / motion
    yellow = "#fabd2f",
    cyan = "#008080",

    red = "#ec5f67",
    comments = "#2aa1ae",
    head1 = "#4f97d7",
    error = "#FC5C94",
    warning = "#F3EA98",
    info = "#8DE6F7"
}

M.light = {
    bg = "#fbf8ef",
    bg2 = "#efeae9",

    error = "#FC5C94",
    warning = "#F3EA98",
    info = "#8DE6F7"
}

function M.color(val)
    if vim.o.background ~= nil and vim.o.background == "light" then
        return M.light[val]
    elseif vim.o.background ~= nil and vim.o.background == "dark" then
        return M.dark[val]
    else
        local hours = tonumber(os.date("%H"))
        if hours >= vim.g["dusk_til_dawn_morning"] and hours < vim.g["dusk_til_dawn_night"] then
            return M.light[val]
        else
            return M.dark[val]
        end
    end
end

return M

I am using M.color as a helper function here to set the colors.

I have tried using

:lua require('galaxyline').disable_galaxyline()
:lua require('galaxyline').load_galaxyline()

to restart it but that doesn't seem to do it either.

Here's my config

What's the best way to approach this?

Just wondering if you would consider looking into this issue.

When I save a file and Goyo is active the bar reappears. I would like it to stay hidden when Goyo is active.

I'm giving this a go, have to say I love it!!!
I've been having to code some workarounds though.
Issues happen on entering fzf and terminal windows. I started out with spaceline and soon saw that sometimes in terminal buffers there is no branchName but the git icon is still there. Started investigating, the logic buffer_not_empty isn't the same as vcs.get_git_branch.
"Fair enough", I thought to myself, let's change the condition for GitIcon to be vcs.get_git_branch. Still get sometimes the icon there and no gitBranchName. So I decided that the GitIcon will need to have the following provider

function() 
  if(vcs.get_git_branch()) then 
    return ' THE_ICON ' 
  end 
  return ''
end

Ok, that solves that, now I'm battling the filename. Opening :term I get empty filename, go to some other file and back, now I get the desired zsh. I'll probably try to call load_galaxyline after n ms for mode() == 't' to workaround this(will need to watch not to enter an infinite loop).
I'm guessing that all these events 'FileType','BufWinEnter','BufReadPost','BufWritePost','BufEnter','WinEnter','FileChangedShellPost','VimResized' fire very quickly one after another, I'd imagine that debouncing the call to load_galaxyline would solve the problem.
Having said that, that's my first time writing any lua, I'm just getting my feet wet. I see there is a defer_fn function, I don't see a debounce but shouldn't be too hard to implement one.

Thanks for the amazing work!

Since #40 has been locked I figured I'd put this here. This minimal init file is able to reproduce :so min_init.vim breaking the statusline. I didn't mean to come of as rude, just wanted to find a way to resolve the issue. Thanks for your work on this.

set packpath=

Hi! Thanks for making this awesome plugin.
I am trying to install it using Packer. It seems to kind of work. From the command line I can run :lua require'galaxyline' with no errors and I am able to manually populate the galaxyline from the command line, but as soon as I source galaxyline in a lua settings file instead I get massive amounts of errors.

The plugin is installed using the packer.nvim package manager https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim

like this:

use 'glepnir/galaxyline.nvim'
use 'kyazdani42/nvim-web-devicons' -- lua

What do you think of this option?

  AnyName = {
    ...
    icon = '  ',
    icon_highlight = {colors.green, colors.red},
    ...
  }

Hi

A small issue I am having is that I am using some filetypes that are "rare" in most circumstances and thus not covered by the FileIcon provider. As a result I see the question mark icon a lot for those but I would love to be able to add my own icons to the provider.

And just fyi, the file types I am talking about are for example supercollider (.scd and .sc).

Thanks! <3

At present, short_line is used to display special buffers such as defx NvimTree Vista, and short_line is also used when Winleave autcomd is triggered, but many users are confused about this, and some custom codes and some duplicate codes have been added. Maybe we You can add two keywords to support for example SpecialBuffer InActive? Or use current keyword condition withInActive.

1

 FileSize = {
    provider = 'FileSize',
    InAcitve = true,  -- or false when trigger autocmd `Winleave` It also display. false doesnot dispaly
    SpecialBuffer = true . -- buffer filetype in special list. it also display . false doesnot dispaly
  }

2

This way requires some judgmental operations yourself

 FileSize = {
    provider = 'FileSize',
    condition = function()
      if has_value(vim.bo.filetype,special_filetype_list)  then
        return true
      end
      return false
      end,
    InAcitve = true,  -- or false when trigger autocmd `Winleave` It also display. false doesnot dispaly
  }

Hi, any idea why i get this error?
neovim version: NVIM v0.5.0-dev+1025-g0fad952a2
SO: Ubuntu 20.04.1

Maybe this doesn't have anything to do with the plugin itself, but for some reason powerline symbol separators are not the right size in my statusline. I'm using nerd font patched Jetbrains Mono, and the symbols are the right size in the buffer text, but not on the statusline.

I know in spacemacs scaling for powerline symbols was a configuration option. I don't know enough about vim to know if that's an issue or an option here.

I get this error after installing the plugin

Thanks for this excellent plugin @glepnir!

I've finally recreated my old vimscript-based statusline over to lua via galaxyline..

I have one final odd thing; for some reason there's this dark/black background area to the left of the "right" section (looks to be hex #1c272d).

Here's a screenshot to illustrate the area at the bottom right:

Here's a link to my current statusline setup: https://github.com/megalithic/dotfiles/blob/main/nvim/.config/nvim/lua/mega/statusline.lua

If this is not the right place to ask about this, please direct me to a better spot!

Thanks again!

With the plugin, diagnostic signcolumn turns gray. Maybe conflicting color group ?

Am currently using the spaceline example almost as is.

While opening a C header file with .h extension, I get the following error

Error detected while processing BufEnter Autocommands for "*":
E5108: Error executing lua ... pack/paqs/start/galaxyline.nvim/lua/galaxyline/colors.lua:13 attempt to concatenate a nil value

This doesn't happen for any other files I have tried so far.

this happens when opening an .gitignore file.

issue with color for this filetype?

I tried both eviline and spaceline, as well as both web-devicons and nvim-web-devicons, and I get wrong icons in all of them.

Sign column - mhinz/vim-signify
bottom - liuchengxu/vim-which-key

Hey need some screenshots in README. You can share your custom galaxyline screenshots in here and you can add the link .

Hi, thanks for galaxyline! 👍

See the subject line: Would you consider adding support for more than section_left/right? It looks like both are concatenated using %= anyways, so I hope it wouldn't be too hard to add some other section.

My use case: I used to have a statusline that had most stuff displayed in the middle instead of the left and right, so having another section would be convenient. :)

Thanks for the plugin. I am a little confused on how to get icons to show up. Using the examples you give and those of others, icons (e.g. the filetype icons) are blank. Does my font need to support the icons to make them show?

https://github.com/glepnir/galaxyline.nvim/blob/main/lua/galaxyline/provider_fileinfo.lua#L55

Maybe this line of code should be changed local encode = vim.bo.fenc ~= '' and vim.bo.fenc or vim.o.enc

The latest commit gives an error in provider_vcs.lua. The error primarily comes from line number 178. My lua skills are non existent but it seems like the way to retrieve the signs data has changed?

By copying and pasting either the spaceline or eviline examples into my lua folder, and then requiring them into my init.vim. I do see that the needed glyphs are rendered. But there are no colors, and it just looks really odd:

echo $TERM can be either screen (while in tmux) or xterm-termite when not in tmux.

Any ideas at what might cause this?

Is there a way to use the coc#status() with this plugin? I know diagnostics, warnings, etc. are supported, but this function (and others like coc_current_function show more info. Is there a way to call vim plugin functions from lua?

Hi!
I am using nvim-lspconfig with completion-nvim and diagnostic-nvim. The gutter show both the warning and the error. galaxyline shows just the warning

I'm using the following versions of NeoVim.
And buf_diagnostics_count is deprecated. Use 'vim.lsp.diagnostic.get_count' error occurred.

If the branch is in a conflicted state, the branch name cannot be obtained and the following errors keep appearing.

The following repo provides a status() function which we can use to show the currently attached lsp server and status. https://github.com/nvim-lua/lsp-status.nvim

I tried adding this as the LeftEnd segment, but nothing shows up:

gls.left[10] = {
  LeftEnd = {
    provider = function() return require('lsp-status').status() end,
    highlight = {colors.line_bg,colors.line_bg}
  }
}

But interestingly if i print out the status() then it does show up in the neovim console:

gls.left[10] = {
  LeftEnd = {
    provider = function() return print(require('lsp-status').status()) end,
    highlight = {colors.line_bg,colors.line_bg}
  }
}

And it shows up in console like so:

So does,galaxyline support these custom providers? Or is there any other way to make this work and show the lsp status? Ideally i just wanted to show a spinner showing what lsp is doing when opening a file. This was the starter point for me.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Pretty much what the title says. I can't quite figure out how to do something like this:

local colors = {
		bg = colorscheme.bg,
		yellow = colorscheme.yellow,
		cyan = colorscheme.cyan,
                .... etc....
}

Is this (easily) doable? I'm a complete lua noob, so please bear with me ;-)

K

how do I show the statusline for all the windows? it just shows for the active window

Hi,
thanks for this cool plugin and the nice approach.
I just started, but colors do not work for me. Do need to set any vim option?

Here a minimal configuration of the plugin:

local section = require('galaxyline').section

section.left[1] = {
  test = {
    provider = function() return 'test' end,
    highlight = { '#ff0000a', '#00ff00' },
  }
}

If only one file is opened, there is no problem, but if multiple files are opened, the following error occurs. The only one I've tried is Go.

./lua/galaxyline/provider_diagnostic.lua:18: attempt to index a nil value function: builtin#18

When I tried to run :lua print(vim.inspect(vim.lsp.buf_get_clients(0))) in this state, it displayed as follows. It is true that there are no zeros at the index of the array.

 lua print(vim.inspect(vim.lsp.buf_get_clients(0)))
{
  [2] = {
    _on_attach = <function 1>,
    callbacks = <1>{
      ["window/logMessage"] = <function 2>,
      ["window/showMessage"] = <function 3>,
      ["workspace/configuration"] = <function 4>,
      <metatable> = <2>{
        __tostring = <function 5>
      }
    },
    cancel_request = <function 6>,
    config = {
      _on_attach = <function 7>,
      callbacks = <table 1>,
      capabilities = {
        textDocument = {
          completion = {
            completionItem = {
              snippetSupport = true,
              <metatable> = <table 2>
            },
            <metatable> = <table 2>
          },
          <metatable> = <table 2>
        },
        workspace = {
          configuration = true,
          <metatable> = <table 2>
        },
        <metatable> = <table 2>
      },
      cmd = { "gopls" },
      filetypes = { "go", "gomod" },
...

like there:

Thanks for the great plugin!

But, when I use galaxyline.nvim with the latest nvim, I get the following error.
This error did not occur until recently.

...er/start/galaxyline.nvim/lua/galaxyline/provider_vcs.lua:178: attempt to compare number with nil

In addition to setting specific colors for sections, I'd love to be able to set a highlight group to link. That way, you can specify a single string for highlight, and galaxyline will create the link.

issue

using the following provider will crash nvim if opening a session, file etc. in a non .git directory.

gls.left[6] = {
  GitBranch = {
    provider = 'GitBranch',
    condition = empty_buffer,
    highlight = {colors.grey,colors.purple},
  }
}

• (as an example) pwd = $HOME
  then cd ~ && nvim some_new_file_which_is_not_in_a_git_repo will hang nvim.

It would be nice if it had support for tabline/bufferline.

I really like the plugin however I am facing an issue where the galaxy line is not visible upon initial execution of neovim. If I call a buffer refresh via something like whichkey window in the example , it becomes visible. However on opening a neo-tree split-buffer it disappears again only to come after I close that split-buffer

Demonstration.

Issue Reproduction-
This is my config
The issue seems to be theme agnostic however I am using this theme
I have done no additional customizations besides loading the theme on my part

Is there a way to modify the inactive window statusline ? At least i want to change the colour.

Hi just a suggestion: Only provide screeshot with accompanying code.

In viml easy to do that. but in lua got some problem. also can use InsertEnter and InsertLeave to change .but that only work for normal and insert mode , so If want get different color in other modes, need improve. Currently If trigger other window that will redraw the mode color ,condition is write a function in highlight fg filed to dynamic return color.

local colors = {
  bg = '#282c34',
  line_bg = '#353644',
  fg = '#8FBCBB',
  fg_green = '#65a380',

  yellow = '#fabd2f',
  cyan = '#008080',
  darkblue = '#081633',
  green = '#afd700',
  orange = '#FF8800',
  purple = '#5d4d7a',
  magenta = '#c678dd',
  blue = '#51afef';
  red = '#ec5f67'
}

1. fg_green is unused in both examples. What was planned to use it for?

2. Even complicated color schemes use normal colors. Can we collect all colors of color schemes, such that one can copy-paste them and prototype them abit? Potential list of colors.

Would you be interested in starting a wiki page or some sort of additional readme in a docs folder with other providers that people can easily grab and use?

For example, here is a simple trailing whitespace function

local function trailing_whitespace()
    local trail = vim.fn.search("\\s$", "nw")
    if trail ~= 0 then
        return " "
    else
        return nil
    end
end

1. :Vista!!
   
2. Put the cursor in VISTA's window and :Vista!!
   

The galaxyline.nvim didn't go back to what you were before.

But if I put the cursor in myfile.h's window and :Vista!! It work well

My vim config file:

luafile ~/.config/nvim/plugged/galaxyline.nvim/example/eviline.lua

I really need to see the filepath on splitwindows, looks like by design inactive_galaxyline greys out non-focused window.
Can I get the filepath displayed there?
