Problem: plenary.nvim is deprecated. The test suite depends on
plenary's async test runner and coroutine-based utilities, tying the
project to an unmaintained dependency. CI also tests against Neovim
0.8-0.11, which are no longer relevant.
Solution: replace plenary with busted + nlua (nvim -l). Convert all
async test patterns (a.wrap, a.util.sleep, a.util.scheduler) to
synchronous equivalents using vim.wait. Rename tests/ to spec/ to
follow busted convention. Replace the CI test matrix with
nvim-busted-action targeting stable/nightly only. Add .busted config,
luarocks test_dependencies, and update the nix devshell.
* build: replace luacheck with selene
Problem: luacheck is unmaintained (last release 2018) and required
suppressing four warning classes to avoid false positives. It also
lacks first-class vim/neovim awareness.
Solution: switch to selene with std='vim' for vim-aware linting.
Replace the luacheck CI job with selene, update the Makefile lint
target, and delete .luacheckrc.
* build: add nix devshell and pre-commit hooks
Problem: oil.nvim had no reproducible dev environment. The .envrc
set up a Python venv for the now-removed docgen pipeline, and there
were no pre-commit hooks for local formatting checks.
Solution: add flake.nix with stylua, selene, and prettier in the
devshell. Replace the stale Python .envrc with 'use flake'. Add
.pre-commit-config.yaml with stylua and prettier hooks matching
other plugins in the repo collection.
* fix: format with stylua
* build(selene): configure lints and add inline suppressions
Problem: selene fails on 5 errors and 3 warnings from upstream code
patterns that are intentional (mixed tables in config API, unused
callback parameters, identical if branches for readability).
Solution: globally allow mixed_table and unused_variable (high volume,
inherent to the codebase design). Add inline selene:allow directives
for the 8 remaining issues: if_same_then_else (4), mismatched_arg_count
(1), empty_if (2), global_usage (1). Remove .envrc from tracking.
* build: switch typecheck action to mrcjkb/lua-typecheck-action
Problem: oil.nvim used stevearc/nvim-typecheck-action, which required
cloning the action repo locally for the Makefile lint target. All
other plugins in the collection use mrcjkb/lua-typecheck-action.
Solution: swap to mrcjkb/lua-typecheck-action@v0 for consistency.
Remove the nvim-typecheck-action git clone from the Makefile and
.gitignore. Drop LuaLS from the local lint target since it requires
a full language server install — CI handles it.
If you rename a file to have a `/` at the end, oil will detect the
change as a delete + new directory. Similarly, if you delete the
trailing `/` from a directory, it will delete the dir and create a new
file. This should help with the case where you want to create a new file
but forgot to add the trailing `/` and now you have a file instead.
