A minimal Tabline plugin for Neovim, written in Lua. It is basically a drop-in replacement for tabline.vim but with a few differences.
With lazy.nvim:
{ 'crispgm/nvim-tabline', dependencies = { 'nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons' }, -- optional config = true, }require('tabline').setup({opts})require('tabline').setup({ show_index = true, -- show tab index show_modify = true, -- show buffer modification indicator show_icon = false, -- show file extension icon fnamemodify = ':t', -- file name modifier string -- can be a function to modify buffer name modify_indicator = '[+]', -- modify indicator no_name = 'No name', -- no name buffer name brackets = { '[', ']' }, -- file name brackets surrounding inactive_tab_max_length = 0 -- max length of inactive tab titles, 0 to ignore })" Only if there are at least two tabs (default) vim.opt.showtabline = 1 " Always vim.opt.showtabline = 2 " Never vim.opt.showtabline = 0Vim's tabpage commands are powerful enough, :help tabpage for details. If you need switch between tabs, here is a great tutorial.
The highlighting of the tab pages line follows vim settings. See :help setting-tabline for details.
nvim-tabline is not exactly a Lua translation. There are some differences for configuration:
- Control whether to display tab number (
show_index) and buffer modification indicator (show_modify). - File extension icon with nvim-dev-icons.
- Customize modify indicator and no name buffer name.
- Close button (
g:tablineclosebutton) is not supported.
