Default config~ > require'lualine'.setup { options = { icons_enabled = true, theme = 'gruvbox', component_separators = {'', ''}, section_separators = {'', ''}, disabled_filetypes = {} }, sections = { lualine_a = {'mode'}, lualine_b = {'branch'}, lualine_c = {'filename'}, lualine_x = {'encoding', 'fileformat', 'filetype'}, lualine_y = {'progress'}, lualine_z = {'location'} }, inactive_sections = { lualine_a = {}, lualine_b = {}, lualine_c = {'filename'}, lualine_x = {'location'}, lualine_y = {}, lualine_z = {} }, tabline = {}, extensions = {} } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ STARTING LUALINE *lualine-starting_lualine* *lualine.setup()* > require('lualine').setup() ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SETTING A THEME *lualine-theme* > options = {theme = 'gruvbox'} Available themes are listed here: https://github.com/hoob3rt/lualine.nvim/blob/master/THEMES.md Customizing themes~ > local custom_gruvbox = require'lualine.themes.gruvbox' -- Change the background of lualine_c section for normal mode custom_gruvbox.normal.c.bg = '#112233' -- rgb colors are supported require'lualine'.setup{ options = { theme = custom_gruvbox }, ... } < Theme structure is available here: https://github.com/hoob3rt/lualine.nvim/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#adding-a-theme ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SEPARATORS *lualine-separators* Lualine defines two kinds of seperators: * |section_separators| - separators between sections * |components_separators| - separators between components in sections > options = { section_separators = {'', ''}, component_separators = {'', ''} } Disabling separators~ > options = {section_separators = '', component_separators = ''} ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CHANGING COMPONENTS IN LUALINE SECTIONS *lualine-components* `sections = {lualine_a = {'mode'}}` Available components~ general~ * |branch| (git branch) * |diagnostics| (diagnostics count from your preferred source) * |encoding| (file encoding) * |fileformat| (file format) * |filename| * |filetype| * |hostname| * |location| (location in file in line:column format) * |mode| (vim mode) * |progress| (%progress in file) * |diff| (git diff status) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CUSTOM COMPONENTS *lualine-custom_components* Lua functions as lualine component~ > local function hello() return [[hello world]] end sections = {lualine_a = {hello}} < Vim functions as lualine component~ > sections = {lualine_a = {'FugitiveHead'}} < Vim variables as lualine component~ Variables from `g:`, `v:`, `t:`, `w:`, `b:`, `o`, `go:`, `vo:`, `to:`, `wo:`, `bo:` scopes can be used. See `:h lua-vim-variables` and `:h lua-vim-options` if you are not sure what to use. > sections = {lualine_a = {'g:coc_status', 'bo:filetype'}} < Lua expressions as lualine component~ You can use any valid lua expression as a component including * oneliners * global variables * require statements > sections = {lualine_c = {"os.data('%a')", 'data', require'lsp-status'.status}} `data` is a global variable in this example. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ COMPONENT OPTIONS *lualine-component_options* Component options can change the way a component behave. There are two kinds of options: * global options affecting all components * local options affecting specific Global options can be used as local options (can be applied to specific components) but you cannot use local options as global. Global option used locally overwrites the global, for example: > require'lualine'.setup { options = {lower = true}, sections = {lualine_a = {{'mode', lower = false}}, lualine_b = {'branch'}} } `mode` will be displayed with `lower = false` and `branch` will be displayed with `lower = true` Available options:~ Global options~ --------------- > options = { icons_enabled = 1, -- displays icons in alongside component padding = 1, -- adds padding to the left and right of components left_padding = 1, -- adds padding to the left of components right_padding =1, -- adds padding to the right of components upper = false, -- displays components in uppercase lower = false, -- displays components in lowercase format = nil -- format function, formats component's output } Local options~ --------------- > sections = { lualine_a = { { 'mode', icon = nil, -- displays icon in front of the component separator = nil, -- overwrites component_separators for component condition = nil, -- condition function, component is loaded when function returns true -- custom color for component in format -- color = {fg = '#rrggbb', bg= '#rrggbb', gui='style'} -- or highlight group -- color = "WarningMsg" color = nil } } } Component specific local options~ --------------- * diagnostics~ > sections = { lualine_a = { { 'diagnostics', -- table of diagnostic sources, available sources: -- nvim_lsp, coc, ale, vim_lsp sources = nil, -- displays diagnostics from defined severity sections = {'error', 'warn', 'info', 'hint'}, -- all colors are in format #rrggbb color_error = nil, -- changes diagnostic's error foreground color color_warn = nil, -- changes diagnostic's warn foreground color color_info = nil, -- Changes diagnostic's info foreground color color_hint = nil, -- Changes diagnostic's hint foreground color symbols = {error = 'E', warn = 'W', info = 'I', hint = 'H'} } } } * filename~ > sections = { lualine_a = { { 'filename', file_status = true, -- displays file status (readonly status, modified status) path = 0 -- 0 = just filename, 1 = relative path, 2 = absolute path } } } * filetype~ > sections = { lualine_a = { { 'filetype', colored = true, -- displays filetype icon in color if set to `true` disable_text = false -- Display only icon for filetype } } } < * diff~ > sections = { lualine_a = { { 'diff', colored = true, -- displays diff status in color if set to true -- all colors are in format #rrggbb color_added = nil, -- changes diff's added foreground color color_modified = nil, -- changes diff's modified foreground color color_removed = nil, -- changes diff's removed foreground color symbols = {added = '+', modified = '~', removed = '-'} -- changes diff symbols } } } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ TABLINE *lualine-tabline* You can use lualine to display components in tabline. The configuration for tabline sections is exactly the same as for statusline. > tabline = { lualine_a = {}, lualine_b = {'branch'}, lualine_c = {'filename'}, lualine_x = {}, lualine_y = {}, lualine_z = {}, } < This will show branch and filename component on top of neovim inside tabline. You can also completely move your statuline to tabline by configuring |lualine.tabline| and disabling |lualine.sections| and |lualine.inactive_sections|. > tabline = { ...... } sections = {} inactive_sections = {} ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EXTENSIONS *lualine-extensions* Lualine extensions change statusline appearance for a window/buffer with specified filetypes. By default no extension are loaded to improve performance. You can load extensions with: > extensions = {'quickfix'} < Available extensions~ * |chadtree| * |fugitive| * |fzf| * |nerdtree| * |nvim-tree| * |quickfix| * Custom extensions~ You can define your own extensions. If you think an extension might be useful for others then please submit a pr. > local my_extension = {sections = {lualine_a = 'mode'}, filetypes = {'lua'}} require'lualine'.setup {extensions = {my_extension}} ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DISABLING LUALINE *lualine-disable* You can disable lualine for specific filetypes `options = {disabled_filetypes = {'lua'}}` ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ vim:tw=80:sw=4:ts=8:et:ft=help:norl:et:
