![vim-polyglot](https://i.imgur.com/9RxQK6k.png

A collection of language packs for Vim.

One to rule them all, one to find them, one to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.

• It won't affect your startup time, as scripts are loaded only on demand*.
• It installs and updates 120+ times faster than the 598 packages it consists of.
• It is also more secure (scripts loaded for every filetype are generated by vim-polyglot)
• Best syntax and indentation support (no other features). Hand-selected language packs.
• Automatically detects indentation (includes performance-optimized version of vim-sleuth, can be disabled)

*To be completely honest, optimized ftdetect script takes around 10ms to load.

1. Install Pathogen, Vundle, NeoBundle, or Plug package manager for Vim.
2. Use this repository as submodule or package.

For example when using Plug (which I recommend):

set nocompatible

call plug#begin()

Plug 'sheerun/vim-polyglot'

call plug#end()

Optionally download one of the releases and unpack it directly under ~/.vim directory.

You can also use Vim 8 built-in package manager:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/sheerun/vim-polyglot ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start/vim-polyglot

You can either wait for new patch release with updates or run make by yourself.

Please make sure you have set nocompatible in your .vimrc (or use something like sheerun/vimrc)

Individual language packs can be disabled by setting g:polyglot_disabled as follows:

Please declare this variable before polyglot is loaded (at the top of .vimrc)

let g:polyglot_disabled = ['markdown']

The list of available languages to disable is shown above.

If you wish to use filetype detection by Vim Polyglot but you'd like to use your own syntax-highlighting plugin, you can append .plugin to disabled entry, like below. Disabling Vim Polyglot filetype plugin won't disable native Vim filetype plugin.

let g:polyglot_disabled = ['markdown.plugin']

Please note that disabling a language won't make in your vim startup any faster / slower (only for specific this specific filetype). All plugins are lazily loaded only when they are really needed.

Vim Polyglot tries to automatically detect indentation settings (just like vim-sleuth). If this feature is not working for you for some reason, please file an issue and disable it temporarily with:

let g:polyglot_disabled = ['autoindent']

If you want to disable reindenting of the current line in insert mode (see vim 'indentkeys') you can turn it off with:

autocmd BufEnter * set indentexpr=

This will not affect smart autoindenting when starting a new line.

Vim Polyglot sets defaults of some settings that are relevant for good language support. You can disable them by:

let g:polyglot_disabled = ['sensible']

These defaults include:

• Use utf-8 encoding by default
• Automatically reload file if changed somewhere else
• Disable existing swapfile warnings, instead just create multiple swapfiles
• Don't create swapfiles in current directory, instead in data directory
• Whitespace characters when using :set list
• Delete comment character when joining commented lines
• Search upwards for tags file(s) instead only locally
• Fix issues with fish shell
• Increase history size to 1000 items
• Allow for up to 50 opened tabs on Vim start.
• Reduce updatetime from 4000 to 300 to avoid issues with coc.nvim
• Always save upper case variables to viminfo file
• Don't save options in sessions and views
• Allow color schemes to do bright colors without forcing bold
• Load vim's built-in matchit plugin

If you want to use vim-polyglot plugins, but not ftdetect autocommands, the you can disable it as so:

let g:polyglot_disabled = ['ftdetect']

Language packs are periodically updated using automated scripts/build script.

Feel free to add your language to packages.yaml + heuristics.yaml, and send pull-request. You can run make test to run rough tests. And make dev for easy development.
