Introducing rocks-lazy.nvim (a rocks.nvim module for lazy-loading) and the lz.n library

[mrcjkb]

Hey everyone

We have just published the new rocks-lazy.nvim module and uploaded a dev rockspec to luarocks.org!

You can test-drive it now by running :Rocks install rocks-lazy.nvim dev.
See the module’s README for how to configure your plugins for lazy loading.

The module is powered by our new library, lz.n, which has an interface that is loosely based on lazy.nvim’s PluginSpec^[1].

It allows you to add lazy-loading capabilities to your favourite plugin manager (not just rocks.nvim)^[2].

Before we publish a stable release, we’d like to:

• Await your initial feedback
• Make rocks-lazy.nvim and rocks-config.nvim interoperable, which will be the case after merging feat!: support lazy-loading plugin configs by mrcjkb · Pull Request #42 · nvim-neorocks/rocks-config.nvim · GitHub

1. With some differences, and reduced down to the very basics required for lazy-loading only. ↩︎

2. Yes, including your Nix config ↩︎
