I save files in neovim way too often, I started like we all do, using :w, then I implemented a form of autosave that saved the file when I exited insert mode by pressing kj. But then I found out about the okuuva/auto-save.nvim plugin, which is a fork of the unmaintained pocco81/auto-save.nvim plugin. • The plugin works great, it adds a debounce delay that adds a delay to save the file after it's changed. There are several trigger events that can be configured, undo and redo works fine, and it also works when combined with autoformatting • If you find this video helpful and want to share a tip • https://ko-fi.com/linkarzu • Follow me on twitter • https://x.com/link_arzu • Check out my video in which I go over my entire neovim markdown setup • • My complete Neovim markdown setup and... • Here's the link for my plugin configuration and setup • https://github.com/linkarzu/dotfiles-... • Here's a link to my keymaps file • https://github.com/linkarzu/dotfiles-... • Alternate between the last 2 tmux sessions or neovim buffers • • Alternate between the last 2 tmux ses... • How to view and paste images in neovim • • View and paste images in Neovim like ... • Here's the code for reference, but instead of getting it from here, get it from the github repo: • return { • { • okuuva/auto-save.nvim , • cmd = ASToggle , -- optional for lazy loading on command • event = { InsertLeave , TextChanged }, -- optional for lazy loading on trigger events • opts = { • -- • -- All of these are just the defaults • -- • enabled = true, -- start auto-save when the plugin is loaded (i.e. when your package manager loads it) • execution_message = { • enabled = true, • message = function() -- message to print on save • return ( AutoSave: saved at .. vim.fn.strftime( %H:%M:%S )) • end, • dim = 0.18, -- dim the color of `message` • cleaning_interval = 1250, -- (milliseconds) automatically clean MsgArea after displaying `message`.
