Punt Vim

Vim configuration, packages and color schemes.

Installation

Vim

To support neocomplete and system's clipboard integration - make sure that vim is installed with certain flags. Run vim --version to check your build.

OS X

brew install vim --with-lua --with-clipboard

Configuration and Plugins

Note: YCM plugin requires Python2, cmake and make. Make sure these are installed otherwise it will fail. Installation script is in ~/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe (run python2 install.py in this directory to install YCM).

Automatic

Run this script to pull this repo and install vim plugins automatically.

Note: this will replace and backup your .vimrc and will attempt to destroy .vim directory. Eventially the repository will be pulled into .vim.

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dzotokan/puntvim/master/setup.sh | sh

Manual

• Install Vundle: git clone https://github.com/gmarik/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
• Place the contents of vimrc into ~/.vimrc (you might want to back up your current one)
• Pull colors and syntax into ~/.vim/ for themes and syntax improvements
• Run vim +PluginInstall +qall to install plugins

Vim in Docker

Using basic vim configuration (vimrc-basic) is recommended if you want to run Vim in Docker. Use vim -u to specify a custom configuration file for vim

OS X

Make sure you have boot2docker to be able to run this container. For auto loading export docker env variables in your shell rc file. Run boot2docker up to start a VM for Docker (each per shell session).

Getting the container

You can pull from Docker Hub

docker pull dzotokan/vim

..or build locally

./docker/build.sh

Running the container

Note: this is work in progress and far from being robust yet.

To run Vim off the docker container use run-container.sh. Could be aliased to vim or vimc (Vim in container; i.e. alias vimc="~/.vim/docker/run-container.sh").

./docker/run-container.sh

It will mount $HOME and change the working directory to the current one. --rm is put to shut down the container when Vim quits, so you don't have to stop the container. See Dockerfile for details.

Issues

• Having YCM plugin enabled causes a sigterm in .rb files after entering :: or .. while in Insert mode using Vim v7.4. Does not happen in MacVim (mvim -v)
