Advanced vimrc (2022) edition

I have additionally created a repository with config files :-)

System Packages (not bundled)

ubuntu

vim
vim-addon-manager
vim-airline
vim-airline-themes
vim-common
vim-fugitive
vim-nox
vim-puppet
vim-python-jedi
vim-runtime
vim-syntastic
vim-syntax-docker
vim-tiny
vim-youcompleteme

One line:

apt install vim vim-addon-manager vim-airline vim-airline-themes vim-common vim-fugitive vim-nox vim-puppet vim-python-jedi vim-runtime vim-syntastic vim-syntax-docker vim-tiny vim-youcompleteme

Globals

This is the initial vimrc file.

~/.vimrc
" ##############################################
" GLOBAL CONFIG
" ##############################################
set encoding=utf-8
set nocompatible      " We're running Vim, not Vi!
 
" map leader with , to start combos
let mapleader = ","

I'm remaping the leader key for convenience…

vim-plug

Use vim-plug as vundle is not maintained anymore…

curl -fLo ~/.vim/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs \
    https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim

patogen

The official instructions from https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen:

mkdir -p ~/.vim/autoload ~/.vim/bundle && \
curl -LSso ~/.vim/autoload/pathogen.vim https://tpo.pe/pathogen.vim
 
echo "execute pathogen#infect()" >> ~/.vimrc

PlugInstall command

Add to ~/.vimrc:

call plug#begin()
" The default plugin directory will be as follows:
"   - Vim (Linux/macOS): '~/.vim/plugged'
"   - Vim (Windows): '~/vimfiles/plugged'
"   - Neovim (Linux/macOS/Windows): stdpath('data') . '/plugged'
" You can specify a custom plugin directory by passing it as the argument
"   - e.g. `call plug#begin('~/.vim/plugged')`
"   - Avoid using standard Vim directory names like 'plugin'
 
" Make sure you use single quotes
 
" Shorthand notation; fetches https://github.com/junegunn/vim-easy-align
Plug 'junegunn/vim-easy-align'
 
" Any valid git URL is allowed
Plug 'https://github.com/junegunn/vim-github-dashboard.git'
 
" Multiple Plug commands can be written in a single line using | separators
Plug 'SirVer/ultisnips' | Plug 'honza/vim-snippets'
 
" On-demand loading
Plug 'scrooloose/nerdtree', { 'on':  'NERDTreeToggle' }
Plug 'tpope/vim-fireplace', { 'for': 'clojure' }
 
" Using a non-default branch
Plug 'rdnetto/YCM-Generator', { 'branch': 'stable' }
 
" Using a tagged release; wildcard allowed (requires git 1.9.2 or above)
Plug 'fatih/vim-go', { 'tag': '*' }
 
" Plugin options
Plug 'nsf/gocode', { 'tag': 'v.20150303', 'rtp': 'vim' }
 
" Plugin outside ~/.vim/plugged with post-update hook
Plug 'junegunn/fzf', { 'dir': '~/.fzf', 'do': './install --all' }
 
" Unmanaged plugin (manually installed and updated)
"Plug '~/my-prototype-plugin'
 
Plug 'tpope/vim-sensible'
Plug 'junegunn/seoul256.vim'
 
Plug 'vim-syntastic/syntastic'
 
Plug 'mbbill/undotree'
 
" Initialize plugin system
call plug#end()

Then call the installation:

:PlugInstall

That will install all the above plugins:

  • junegunn/vim-easy-align
  • SirVer/ultisnips
  • scrooloose/nerdtree,
  • tpope/vim-fireplace,
  • rdnetto/YCM-Generator,
  • fatih/vim-go,
  • nsf/gocode,
  • junegunn/fzf,
  • tpope/vim-sensible
  • junegunn/seoul256.vim
  • vim-syntastic/syntastic
  • mbbill/undotree

Additional syntax/configs

Tagbar

Used for function/classes navigation [https://preservim.github.io/tagbar/|link].

cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone https://github.com/preservim/tagbar.git

And add to ~/.vimrc:

" tagbar 
nmap <F8> :TagbarToggle<CR>

terraform syntax

From https://github.com/hashivim/vim-terraform using patogen:

git clone https://github.com/hashivim/vim-terraform.git ~/.vim/bundle/vim-terraform

Puppet syntax

From https://github.com/rodjek/vim-puppet using pathogen :

git clone https://github.com/rodjek/vim-puppet.git ~/.vim/bundle/vim-puppet

Simple vimrc

.vimrc
" URL: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Example_vimrc
" Authors: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Vim_on_Freenode
" Description: A minimal, but feature rich, example .vimrc. If you are a
"              newbie, basing your first .vimrc on this file is a good choice.
"              If you're a more advanced user, building your own .vimrc based
"              on this file is still a good idea.
 
"------------------------------------------------------------
" Features {{{1
"
" These options and commands enable some very useful features in Vim, that
" no user should have to live without.
 
" Set 'nocompatible' to ward off unexpected things that your distro might
" have made, as well as sanely reset options when re-sourcing .vimrc
set nocompatible
 
" Attempt to determine the type of a file based on its name and possibly its
" contents. Use this to allow intelligent auto-indenting for each filetype,
" and for plugins that are filetype specific.
filetype indent plugin on
 
" Enable syntax highlighting
syntax on
 
 
"------------------------------------------------------------
" Must have options {{{1
"
" These are highly recommended options.
 
" Vim with default settings does not allow easy switching between multiple files
" in the same editor window. Users can use multiple split windows or multiple
" tab pages to edit multiple files, but it is still best to enable an option to
" allow easier switching between files.
"
" One such option is the 'hidden' option, which allows you to re-use the same
" window and switch from an unsaved buffer without saving it first. Also allows
" you to keep an undo history for multiple files when re-using the same window
" in this way. Note that using persistent undo also lets you undo in multiple
" files even in the same window, but is less efficient and is actually designed
" for keeping undo history after closing Vim entirely. Vim will complain if you
" try to quit without saving, and swap files will keep you safe if your computer
" crashes.
set hidden
 
" Note that not everyone likes working this way (with the hidden option).
" Alternatives include using tabs or split windows instead of re-using the same
" window as mentioned above, and/or either of the following options:
" set confirm
" set autowriteall
 
" Better command-line completion
set wildmenu
 
" Show partial commands in the last line of the screen
set showcmd
 
" Highlight searches (use <C-L> to temporarily turn off highlighting; see the
" mapping of <C-L> below)
set hlsearch
 
" Modelines have historically been a source of security vulnerabilities. As
" such, it may be a good idea to disable them and use the securemodelines
" script, <http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1876>.
" set nomodeline
 
 
"------------------------------------------------------------
" Usability options {{{1
"
" These are options that users frequently set in their .vimrc. Some of them
" change Vim's behaviour in ways which deviate from the true Vi way, but
" which are considered to add usability. Which, if any, of these options to
" use is very much a personal preference, but they are harmless.
 
" Use case insensitive search, except when using capital letters
set ignorecase
set smartcase
 
" Allow backspacing over autoindent, line breaks and start of insert action
set backspace=indent,eol,start
 
" When opening a new line and no filetype-specific indenting is enabled, keep
" the same indent as the line you're currently on. Useful for READMEs, etc.
set autoindent
 
" Stop certain movements from always going to the first character of a line.
" While this behaviour deviates from that of Vi, it does what most users
" coming from other editors would expect.
set nostartofline
 
" Display the cursor position on the last line of the screen or in the status
" line of a window
set ruler
 
" Always display the status line, even if only one window is displayed
set laststatus=2
 
" Instead of failing a command because of unsaved changes, instead raise a
" dialogue asking if you wish to save changed files.
set confirm
 
" Use visual bell instead of beeping when doing something wrong
set visualbell
 
" And reset the terminal code for the visual bell. If visualbell is set, and
" this line is also included, vim will neither flash nor beep. If visualbell
" is unset, this does nothing.
set t_vb=
 
" Enable use of the mouse for all modes
" set mouse=a
 
" Set the command window height to 2 lines, to avoid many cases of having to
" "press <Enter> to continue"
set cmdheight=2
 
" Display line numbers on the left
set number
 
" Quickly time out on keycodes, but never time out on mappings
set notimeout ttimeout ttimeoutlen=200
 
" Use <F11> to toggle between 'paste' and 'nopaste'
set pastetoggle=<F11>
 
 
"------------------------------------------------------------
" Indentation options {{{1
"
" Indentation settings according to personal preference.
 
" Indentation settings for using 4 spaces instead of tabs.
" Do not change 'tabstop' from its default value of 8 with this setup.
set shiftwidth=4
set softtabstop=4
set expandtab
 
" Indentation settings for using hard tabs for indent. Display tabs as
" four characters wide.
"set shiftwidth=4
"set tabstop=4
 
 
"------------------------------------------------------------
" Mappings {{{1
"
" Useful mappings
 
" Map Y to act like D and C, i.e. to yank until EOL, rather than act as yy,
" which is the default
map Y y$
 
" Map <C-L> (redraw screen) to also turn off search highlighting until the
" next search
nnoremap <C-L> :nohl<CR><C-L>

Advanced vimrc

vundle & pathogen

Vundle is a plugin manager for vim.
Very simple tutorial for initial steps.

Official web: https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim
Pathogen is a runtime plugin manager

python syntax check

As pre-requirement :

  • syntastic plugin
  • a syntax checker like pyflakes (for example)

So install pyflakes for example:

yum -y install pyflakes

Add this configfile to the pluginconf folder:

syntastic_python.vim
let g:syntastic_python_checkers = ['pyflakes']

And add to vimrc:

source ~/.vim/pluginconf/syntastic_python.vim

python omnicompletion

Official web

Install:

curl "https://www.vim.org/scripts/download_script.php?src_id=10872" > ~/.vim/pluginconf/pythoncomplete.vim
echo "source ~/.vim/pluginconf/pythoncomplete.vim" >> ~/.vimrc

tagbar

Official web Install:

  • clone the repo

Add this configfile to the pluginconf folder:

tagbar.vim
nmap <F8> :TagbarToggle<CR>

And add to vimrc:

source ~/.vim/pluginconf/tagbar.vim

airline

Webs:

Install:

  • clone the repos

Add this configfile to the pluginconf folder:

airline.vim
if !exists('g:airline_symbols')
  let g:airline_symbols = {}
endif
let g:airline_symbols.space = "\ua0"
 
let g:airline_powerline_fonts = 1
 
let g:airline_theme='molokai'

And add to vimrc:

source ~/.vim/pluginconf/airline.vim

Special mapppings

I've remapped the leader key to , (instead of \) with

let mapleader = ","

That way, we can add useful shortcuts like

  • :UndoTreeToggle
nnoremap <Leader>u :UndotreeToggle<CR>
  • :TagbarToggle
nnoremap <Leader>f :TagbarToggle<CR>

vim on debian

Some plugins requires vim to be compiled with +python BUT vim usually is not build with that option.
In debian (VDI) you can install vim-nox package. Then reconfigure system and choose it:

update-alternatives --config editor
