## ๐ฅ Installation
### Using [lazy.nvim](https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim)
```lua
{
"nwiizo/cargo.nvim",
build = "cargo build --release",
config = function()
require("cargo").setup({
float_window = true,
window_width = 0.8,
window_height = 0.8,
border = "rounded",
auto_close = true,
close_timeout = 5000,
})
end,
ft = { "rust" },
cmd = {
"CargoBench",
"CargoBuild",
"CargoClean",
"CargoDoc",
"CargoNew",
"CargoRun",
"CargoTest",
"CargoUpdate"
}
}
```
### Using [packer.nvim](https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim)
```lua
use {
"nwiizo/cargo.nvim",
run = "cargo build --release",
config = function()
require("cargo").setup({
float_window = true,
window_width = 0.8,
window_height = 0.8,
border = "rounded",
auto_close = true,
close_timeout = 5000,
})
end,
}
```
## ๐ Requirements
- ๐ป Neovim >= 0.9.0
- ๐ฆ Rust and Cargo installed on your system
## ๐ ๏ธ Available Commands
- ๐ `:CargoBench` - Run benchmarks
- ๐๏ธ `:CargoBuild` - Build the project
- ๐งน `:CargoClean` - Remove generated artifacts
- ๐ `:CargoDoc` - Generate project documentation
- โจ `:CargoNew` - Create a new Cargo project
- โถ๏ธ `:CargoRun` - Run the project
- ๐งช `:CargoTest` - Run tests
- ๐ `:CargoUpdate` - Update dependencies
- ๐ค `:CargoAutodd [args...]` - Automatically manage dependencies
## โ๏ธ Configuration
You can customize cargo.nvim by passing options to the setup function:
```lua
require("cargo").setup({
-- Window settings
float_window = true, -- Use floating window
window_width = 0.8, -- Window width (80% of editor width)
window_height = 0.8, -- Window height (80% of editor height)
border = "rounded", -- Border style ("none", "single", "double", "rounded")
-- Auto-close settings
auto_close = true, -- Auto close window on success
close_timeout = 5000, -- Close window after 5000ms
-- Command settings
commands = {
bench = { nargs = "*" }, -- Command arguments configuration
build = { nargs = "*" },
clean = { nargs = "*" },
doc = { nargs = "*" },
new = { nargs = 1 },
run = { nargs = "*" },
test = { nargs = "*" },
update = { nargs = "*" },
}
})
```
## โจ๏ธ Key Mappings
In the floating window:
- `q` or `<Esc>` - Close the window
- `<C-c>` - Cancel the running command and close the window
