Introduction

A library for embedding Neovim inside a Rust project.

The example can be run with cargo run --example events. It will launch neovim, and every time you open a buffer it will save the event to events.log.

Build Instructions

Note: If neovim fails to build, try going into the neovim directory and running make libnvim to get more specific errors.

Linux (apt-get)

apt-get install libtool autoconf automake cmake libncurses5-dev g++ pkg-config unzip
cargo build

Linux (yum)

yum install autoconf automake cmake gcc gcc-c++ libtool ncurses-devel pkgconfig
cargo build

OS X (homebrew)

brew install libtool automake cmake pkg-config gettext
cargo build

Windows

Prebuilt binaries are already in the neovim-windows dir, so neovim will not need to be built.

rustup install stable-gnu
set RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN=stable-x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
cargo build
