Thank you all for your replies, now I have to digest it ...

(I think what most "normal" users would expect: After plugin installation,
vim "just finds" the new plugin after restart.)

AFAIK it currently does not.  And I agree, it would be a better user
experience if that were the case.

Does vim pick up plugins installed in profiles? If not, we should add
that (IMHO). "nix-env -i vim vim-plugin-X" should work.

Looking at the code, it should work to just omit the `customRC` attribute.

Ha, you beat me to the post by like ten seconds!  I see you use the
same trick with sourcing ~/.vimrc in vim_configurable - now I am
wondering, does anybody out there use it the way it appears it's
intended to be used?

I keep wanting vim_configurable to produce a "normal" vim package
(including executables for gvim, xxd, vimdiff, etc) that has no
special behaviors other than having various plugins installed, but
there does not seem to be an easy way to accomplish that.

I'm using a wrapper that includes my settings, plugins, etc.  The code
is something like this:

# defined as `vim` alias within a set in packageOverrides:
vim = vim_configurable.customize {
  name = "vim";
  vimrcConfig.customRC = builtins.readFile ./vimrc.vim + ''
" per-machine config may mostly remain empty
source ~/.vimrc
  '';
  vimrcConfig.vam.knownPlugins = vimPlugins; #
pkgs/misc/vim-plugins/default.nix
  vimrcConfig.vam.pluginDictionaries = [ { names = [
# see pkgs/misc/vim-plugins/vim-plugin-names
"vim-nix" "vim-addon-nix"
"Solarized"
"vim-pandoc-syntax"
"surround"
"vim-gitgutter" "fugitive"
"youcompleteme" # ...
  ]; } ];
};

[Nix-dev] YouCompleteMe in 16.09

[Tilo Schwarz]

Hi,

I try to get YouCompleteMe running. I put

vimPlugins.YouCompleteMe and
ycmd

in my packages list and I can see the packages in /nix/store. But vim
doesn't seem to find it and I couldn't find a configuration option.

I see two options:
- Change vims runtime path to include the specific /nix/store/... location
- Symlink the /nix/store/... location into my .vim/plugin/
- ?

What would be the "nixos-correct" way to proceed?

Thank you,
Tilo
