## About
|
||
|
||
Project VimR is an attempt to refine the Neovim experience (or just YA Neovim GUI for macOS). The goal is to build an editor that uses Neovim inside with many of the convenience GUI features similar to those present in modern editors. We mainly use Swift, but also use Objective-C when its C-nature helps.
|
||
|
||
There are other working Neovim GUIs for macOS, e.g. [NyaoVim](https://github.com/rhysd/NyaoVim), [neovim-dot-app](https://github.com/rogual/neovim-dot-app), [Oni](https://onivim.io), etc., why another?
|
||
|
||
- play around (obviously) with [Neovim](https://github.com/qvacua/neovim),
|
||
- play around with Swift (and especially with [RxSwift](https://github.com/ReactiveX/RxSwift)) and
|
||
- (most importantly) have fun!
|
||
|
||
### NvimView
|
||
|
||
[NvimView](https://github.com/qvacua/vimr/tree/master/NvimView) is VimR's Cocoa Framework which bundles everything, e.g. Neovim's `runtime`-files, needed to embed Neovim in a Cocoa App. See the [wiki](https://github.com/qvacua/vimr/wiki/SwiftNeoVim-Framework) for more details.

|
||
|
||
## How to Build
|
||
|
||
First after cloning the VimR source tree you need to initialize git submodules
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git submodule init
|
||
git submodule update
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You have to use Xcode 10.1. First install `homebrew`, then in the project root:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
xcode-select --install # install the Xcode command line tools, if you haven't already
|
||
brew bundle
|
||
|
||
./bin/build_vimr.sh # VimR.app will be placed in build/Build/Products/Release/
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Project Setup

### Artifacts Hierarchy

|
||
+-- NVimView
|
||
+-- runtime files for Neovim
|
||
+-- NvimServer

|
||
### Libraries for Neovim
|
||
|
||
* The library `libiconv` is linked by the linker flag `-liconv`. The version bundled with macOS will be linked.
|
||
* The library `libintl` is pre-built in `third-party/libintl/lib` and linked by "Other Linker Flags" of the NvimServer target.
|
||
* Other libraries used by Neovim, which are automatically built by building `libnvim`, are linked by "Other Linker Flags" of the NvimServer target.
