Problem: lua-language-server reports two diagnostics in override.lua:
char() returns string? but resolve() annotates its return as string,
and fallback_icon is typed as string but assigned a string? value.
Solution: add fallback values so both assignments satisfy the string
type — resolve() falls back to fallback_icon, and fallback_icon falls
back to an empty string.
* refactor: extract resolution tables into resolve module
Problem: ext_map, filename_map, and resolve() are locked inside
override.lua as locals, making them inaccessible to any code path
that doesn't go through the devicons monkey-patch.
Solution: extract all resolution tables and logic into a new
nonicons.resolve module. Fix Gemfile/Jenkinsfile case bug (keys
were uppercase but resolve() lowercases input before lookup). Add
ft_map for vim filetypes that don't match extension or mapping keys.
* refactor: wire override.lua to resolve module
Problem: override.lua still has its own copies of ext_map,
filename_map, and resolve(), duplicating the newly extracted
resolve module.
Solution: replace local tables and resolve() with imports from
nonicons.resolve. Update all *_by_filetype overrides to use
resolve_filetype() instead of raw ext_map[ft], gaining ft_map
fallback and direct mapping key lookup.
* feat: add get_icon and get_icon_by_filetype API
Problem: plugins that don't use devicons have no way to get nonicons
glyphs for files. The only integration path is the devicons
monkey-patch via apply().
Solution: add get_icon(name, ext) and get_icon_by_filetype(ft) to
the public API in init.lua. Both use lazy require of the resolve
module and return nil on miss so callers decide fallback. Document
both functions in vimdoc and update the oil.nvim recipe.
Problem: mapping.lua can silently drift from the ya2s/nonicons upstream
font. The existing CI check only runs on PRs/pushes and just fails
without any actionable follow-up.
Solution: add a daily scheduled workflow that generates mapping.lua from
upstream nonicon.json and opens (or updates) a PR via
peter-evans/create-pull-request. Reuses the same branch to avoid spam.
Closes#7
* feat(doc): fix phrasing
* ci: add upstream mapping sync check to quality workflow
Problem: mapping.lua can silently fall behind the ya2s/nonicons font
repo with no indication that new icons are available.
Solution: add a mapping-sync job that fetches nonicon.json from
upstream, generates the expected mapping.lua, and fails the check
if they differ.
* fix: sort alphabetically
* fix(ci): dont respect alphabetical order in font checker
* docs(readme): replace lazy.nvim FAQ with recipes reference
Problem: the FAQ inlined a lazy.nvim snippet that duplicates vimdoc
content and doesn't cover other plugin integrations.
Solution: replace with a generic "How do I integrate with plugin <X>?"
entry pointing to :help nonicons-recipes. Also track flake.lock.
* fix(ci): format
Problem: nonicons.nvim lacks CI, pre-commit hooks, nix dev shell, issue
templates, and the README contains content that duplicates the vimdoc.
Solution: add quality/luarocks CI workflows, pre-commit config, nix
flake, prettier config, GitHub issue/discussion templates, and rewrite
the README to minimal style with all detailed content in vimdoc. Update
yamatsum/nonicons references to ya2s/nonicons.
Problem: the original ya2s/nvim-nonicons fork diverged enough that
maintaining it as a fork was pointless. The set_icon() approach broke
with modern nvim-web-devicons, and the extensions directory coupled
integrations that belong in user config.
Solution: from-scratch rewrite with function wrapping + table mutation
override engine, vim.g.nonicons config pattern, vendored mapping with
integer codepoints, health check, vimdoc with recipes, and no built-in
plugin integrations.
