Move nvim 0.6 to another system

1

Hi All,

Is there a way to run nvim 0.6 on system which does not have access to internet and I am not allowed compile from source?

I copied the binary from /usr/local/bin/nvim to target system and it didn’t work

Have you tried the Appimage from Releases · neovim/neovim · GitHub? I feel like that should fit your usecase perfectly.

Yes thanks it worked. I also had to do following copies to avoid warning messages about syntax files not found etc.

cp nvim-linux64/bin/nvim /usr/local/bin/
cp nvim-linux64/lib/nvim /usr/local/lib/
cp nvim-linux64/share/nvim /usr/local/share/

Now nvim works however I am still missing to load init.vim file which is placed under ~/.config/nvim/init.vim

nvim -V /tmp/nvim.log shows that
could not source “/root/.config/nvim/init.vim”
chdir(/home/root/.config)

Anything that I should take into consideration?
