neocomplete
neocomplete is the abbreviation of "neo-completion with cache". It provides keyword completion system by maintaining a cache of keywords in the current buffer. neocomplete can be customized easily and has many more features than Vim's built-in completion.
Note: If you use neovim, you should use deoplete instead. https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim
Installation
Note: neocomplete requires Vim 7.3.885+ with Lua enabled. See requirements if you aren't sure whether you have this.
- Extract the files and put them in your Vim directory
(usually
~/.vim/
orProgram Files/Vim/vimfiles
on Windows). - Execute the
:NeoCompleteEnable
command or setlet g:neocomplete#enable_at_startup = 1
in your.vimrc
(not in.gvimrc
or_gvimrc
!)
Requirements
neocomplete requires Vim 7.3.885+ compiled with if_lua.
If :echo has("lua")
returns 1
, then you're done; otherwise, see below.
Vim builds for Windows
Note: the Vim build may not include the Lua DLL. In that case,
download Lua and put the lua52.dll
file in the same directory as gvim.exe
.
Vim for Mac OS X:
Or, you can install MacVim with homebrew:
brew install macvim --with-cscope --with-lua
brew linkapps macvim
To install Vim (as opposed to MacVim) with homebrew:
brew install vim --with-lua
Vim for Linux:
Debian (or Ubuntu)
Make sure you have any of these packages:
- vim-nox
- vim-gtk
- vim-gnome
- vim-athena
Which package depends on your graphical environment (except vim-nox which is for vim with no GUI).
Fedora
The latest version of vim includes lua. As of 2014-04-16 you need to download the rpm.
Misc
Be aware, your distribution's package manager may have a fairly outdated
Vim build (for example, Ubuntu 12.04 ships Vim 7.3.429).
However, building Vim on Linux is not difficult.
Remember to specify --with-lua
(or --with-features=huge
).
Vim for Cygwin:
In a cygwin environment, the Lua interface is supported by default.
If you want to make manually, you also need gcc and make.
When everything is prepared, execute these commands.
cd /usr/src
tar jxf vim-7.4.tar.bz2
tar xvfz lua-5.1.5.tar.gz
cd vim74/
./configure --enable-luainterp --enable-gui=no \
--without-x --enable-multibyte --prefix=/usr
make && make install
To check if everything was successfull enter the following vim --version
. You should see +lua
in the list of features.
