[Demo] Lua Autocmd Patterns

#Neovim #Programming #Lua #Autocmds

[RoryIsNotACabbage]

Autocommands are the one part of my config that are 100% copy paste cause I've never known where to start in trying to understand them. This video seems less about the lua version and more about the general concept but turns out that's exactly what I needed

TJ is just breathing life to the neovim community to be honest, I've seen it happen with my own eyes, first people where excited for the LSP in 5.0 and now we have 5 plugins coming out every day, incredible plugins like nvim-cmp, luasnips neorg etc Keep up the good work TJ ( of course and all the other maintainers )!

I love these short videos! I have learned more about Autocmd and augroup in the last 3 videos than I could have imagined.

[KronosaurusRex]

How do you have only 6k subscribers? You clearly deserve a lot more.

Thank you for your content as always 👌

[codehashira]

I never bothered using autocommands, but this is now so straightforward. Thank you TJ! I love the neovim content and look forward to each new video.

This one is dope pls bring more of such short videos explaining nvim stuff!

[fridgedigga]

Very nice.
If anybody else is wondering what the :Mess function was, I believe it's tpope/vim-scriptease.

That schedule function just saved my configuration! I'm using a transparent background with a graphic in my terminal emulator and like to highlight the current line with a black background. That wasn't working automatically but now it is!

Thanks for these autocommand videos, great explanation!

[ianmcgaunn]

This is an excellent practical explanation of autocommands - thanks!

I love TJ so much I watched 4m 9s of ads for a 7 min video <3

[nael_nocteon]

Hey TJ, I'm currently watching a ton of videos from your channel for my very first nvim config and I love the journey so far, so thanks a lot!

Also, I'm really curious about the Lua icon you've got here in the status line, since it has this nice looking outline.
How did you manage to get that look?

[russellhelmstedter]

It's like you read my mind. Thank you.

[Mawkler]

Is the :Mess command something you've just added to your config or is it part of a plugin? Looks pretty dope!

[picosdrivethru]

ahh thanks for showing the lua style equivalent!!

[joshpetit]

Heyy, how did you get the messages to show up in that window? Could you link to the place in your dotfiles where you configured that please?

[aleclowry]

What is the like only wrapping three print statements on vim.schedule as opposed to the entire callback?

[thaddaeusmarkle]

Hey teej, great video, but just so you know I think the music is a little loud, it's kinda hard to understand what you're saying at times.

Thanks!

How to inspect file with no filetype?
It didn't output anything on messages for file with empty filetype

[nmo]

Very insightful as always. I was wondering if could make a video on nvim_add_user_command as well... like how to incorporate <f-args>, -bang, etc. And, explain filetype.lua as well :)
Also, I wish I had found this channel a year ago. My config files would've been so much different. Thanks and cheers!

Edit:Something that I forgot to ask by the way: when does Neovim plan to add API for highlights and cnoreabbrev (I realise they aren't important in the grand scheme of things but, still lol) lastly what's the difference between vim.schedule and vim.schedule_wrap?
