📦 Installation

{
  'vyfor/cord.nvim',
  build = ':Cord update',
  -- opts = {}
}

use {
  'vyfor/cord.nvim',
  run = ':Cord update',
  -- config = function()
  --   require('cord').setup {}
  -- end
}

Cord is available on LuaRocks.

:Rocks install cord.nvim

Invoke :Cord update whenever the plugin is updated.

vim.pack.add { 'https://github.com/vyfor/cord.nvim' }
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('PackChanged', {
  callback = function(opts)
    if opts.data.spec.name == 'cord.nvim' and opts.data.kind == 'update' then 
      vim.cmd 'Cord update'
    end
  end
})

Unix:

git clone https://github.com/vyfor/cord.nvim ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/plugins/start/cord.nvim

Windows (PowerShell):

git clone https://github.com/vyfor/cord.nvim $LOCALAPPDATA/nvim-data/site/pack/plugins/start/cord.nvim

Invoke :Cord update whenever the plugin is updated.

Cord requires the server executable to be present. By default, the plugin automatically fetches it from GitHub, which requires a dependency on curl.

Alternatively, you can provide the executable manually:

  • Download from GitHub:
    Get the latest release from https://github.com/vyfor/cord.nvim/releases/latest, rename it to cord (or cord.exe on Windows), and place it under nvim-data-dir/cord/bin. This is essentially what :Cord update fetch does.

  • Build from source:
    Run :Cord update install to install from crates.io or :Cord update build to build from source locally.

🎨 Themes

Cord features over 120 meticulously crafted icons available in distinct themes:

  • Default: A stylish theme based on Nerd Fonts icons.
  • Atom: A sleek theme based on Atom Material Icons.
  • Catppuccin: A soothing pastel theme based on Catppuccin icons.
  • Minecraft: A blocky pixel-art set based on Datapack Icons.
  • Classic: A clean theme featuring widely recognized icons.

See the showcase for a visual comparison.

[!TIP] Each theme includes multiple flavors, typically dark, light, and accent, representing the background color of the icons. Choose your theme in the display configuration option. More themes are coming soon!
