*stylua-nvim.txt* stylua-nvim

A minimal wrapper around https://github.com/JohnnyMorganz/StyLua to provide a
way to format Lua in an opinionated way while in Nvim, because no one wants to
spend time discussing how you should format.

================================================================================
PREREQUISITES                                        *stylua-nvim-prerequisites*

- Nvim v0.5.x
- Make sure to have StyLua installed. You can find instructions here:
  https://github.com/JohnnyMorganz/StyLua

================================================================================
GETTING STARTED                                    *stylua-nvim-getting-started*

Install via your favorite package manager.
>
  use({"ckipp01/stylua-nvim"})
<

This plugin does not require that setup be called, however it is possible to
provide additional configuration using the setup function.
>
  use({"ckipp01/stylua-nvim"},
      config = function()
          require("stylua-nvim").setup{config_file = "stylua.toml"}
      end)
<

Available setup options:

config_file             Specifies a configuration file to use for the StylLua
                        linter. This can be an absolute or relative path. The
                        default value is nothing, which means the linter will
                        search for a stylua.toml file using the
                        `--search-parent-directories` option of the linter.

error_display_strategy  The mechanism to display errors encountered during
                        linting. Allowed values are 'loclist' or 'none'. Default
                        value is 'loclist'.

================================================================================
LUA API                                                    *stylua-nvim-lua-api*


                                                           *format_file(config)*
format_file(config)     Use to format the current buffer. If any issues are
                        found, they will be opened in your loclist.

                        Takes an optional configuration argument
                        {
                          error_display_strategy = <error_display_string>
                        }

                        <error_display_string> options currently are:
                        * "loclist": display errors in a location list
                        * "none": do not display stylua errors

================================================================================
Example Usage                                        *stylua-nvim-example-usage*


Via a mapping: >
  local opts = { noremap=true, silent=true }
  buf_set_keymap("n", "<leader>f", [[<cmd>lua require("stylua-nvim").format_file()<CR>]], opts)
<

Usage via nvim-lspconfig and sumneko_lua to be able to use `:Format`: >

  local lsp_config = require("lspconfig")
  lsp_config.sumneko_lua.setup({
    commands = {
      Format = {
        function()
          require("stylua-nvim").format_file()
        end,
      },
    },
    ...
  })
