EditorConfig Vim Plugin

This is an EditorConfig plugin for Vim. This plugin could be found on both GitHub and Vim online.

Installation

If your Vim is not compiled with +python feature (You can verify if the +python feature is included by running :ver. Most Linux distributions and with the official Windows binary have the +python feature enabled), please first download the EditorConfig core and follow the instructions in the README and INSTALL files to install it. This plugin would NOT work if neither +python nor EditorConfig core is available.

To install this plugin, you can use one of the following ways:

• Download the archive and extract it into your Vim runtime directory (~/.vim on UNIX/Linux and $VIM_INSTALLATION_FOLDER\vimfiles on windows). You should have 3 sub-directories in this runtime directory now: "autoload", "doc" and "plugin".

OR

• Use pathogen (the git repository of this plugin is https://github.com/editorconfig/editorconfig-vim.git)

OR

• Use Vundle by adding to your .vimrc Vundle plugins section:

    Plugin 'editorconfig/editorconfig-vim'
  

  Then remember to call :PluginInstall.

Supported properties

The EditorConfig Vim plugin supports the following EditorConfig properties:

• indent_style
• indent_size
• tab_width
• end_of_line
• charset
• insert_final_newline (Feature +fixendofline (available on Vim 7.4.785+) or PreserveNoEOL is required for this property)
• trim_trailing_whitespace
• max_line_length
• root (only used by EditorConfig core)

Recommended Options

All of the options which are supported are documented in editorconfig.txt and can be viewed by executing the following: :help editorconfig. You may need to execute :helptags ALL so that Vim is aware of editorconfig.txt.

Excluded patterns.

To ensure that this plugin works well with Tim Pope's fugitive, use the following patterns array:

let g:EditorConfig_exclude_patterns = ['fugitive://.*']

If you wanted to avoid loading EditorConfig for any remote files over ssh:

let g:EditorConfig_exclude_patterns = ['scp://.*']

Of course these two items could be combined into the following:

let g:EditorConfig_exclude_patterns = ['fugitive://.*', 'scp://.*']

Exec Path

The file path to the EditorConfig core executable. You could set this value in your |vimrc| like this:

let g:EditorConfig_exec_path = 'Path to your EditorConfig Core executable'
