INTRODUCTION                                                   *nonicons.nvim*

nonicons.nvim replaces nvim-web-devicons glyphs with icons from the nonicons
font (https://github.com/ya2s/nonicons). It wraps devicons functions so
that any plugin using nvim-web-devicons automatically displays nonicons glyphs.

==============================================================================
REQUIREMENTS                                          *nonicons-requirements*

- nvim-web-devicons (https://github.com/nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons)
- nonicons font installed in your terminal

==============================================================================
SETUP                                                        *nonicons-setup*

Using lazy.nvim: >lua
    {
      'barrettruth/nonicons.nvim',
      dependencies = { 'nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons' },
    }
<
The plugin applies overrides automatically via `plugin/nonicons.lua`. No
`setup()` call is needed.

==============================================================================
CONFIGURATION                                               *nonicons-config*

Configure via `vim.g.nonicons` before the plugin loads: >lua
    vim.g.nonicons = {
      override = true,
    }
<
                                                    *nonicons.config.override*
override ~
    `boolean` (default: `true`)
    Whether to wrap nvim-web-devicons functions with nonicons glyphs.

==============================================================================
API                                                            *nonicons-api*

                                                            *nonicons.get()*
`require('nonicons').get(name)`
    Returns the nonicons character for the given icon name, or `nil` if the
    name is not in the mapping.

    Parameters: ~
        {name}  `string`  Icon name (e.g. `'lua'`, `'python'`, `'git-branch'`)

    Returns: ~
        `string?`  The single-character nonicons glyph

                                                        *nonicons.mapping*
`require('nonicons').mapping`
    The raw `table<string, integer>` mapping icon names to Unicode codepoints.
    Useful for advanced use cases where you need the codepoint directly: >lua
        local code = require('nonicons').mapping['lua']
        local icon = vim.fn.nr2char(code)
<

    local get = require('nonicons').get

    require('lualine').setup({

            'mode',
            fmt = function(mode)
              local map = {
                NORMAL = get('vim-normal-mode'),

                TERMINAL = get('vim-terminal-mode'),
              }
              return map[mode] or mode
            end,
          },
        },
      },
    })

nvim-notify ~
>lua
    require('notify').setup({
      icons = {
        ERROR = require('nonicons').get('x-circle'),
        WARN = require('nonicons').get('alert'),
        INFO = require('nonicons').get('info'),
        DEBUG = require('nonicons').get('bug'),
        TRACE = require('nonicons').get('play'),
      },
    })
<

mason.nvim ~
>lua
    require('mason').setup({
      ui = {
        icons = {
          package_installed = require('nonicons').get('check'),
          package_pending = require('nonicons').get('sync'),
          package_uninstalled = require('nonicons').get('x'),
        },
      },
    })
<

oil.nvim ~

    No configuration needed. oil.nvim reads the devicons extension/filename
    tables directly, which nonicons.nvim mutates on load.

fzf-lua ~

    No configuration needed. fzf-lua calls `get_icon()` from devicons, which
    nonicons.nvim wraps automatically.

telescope.nvim ~

    No configuration needed. telescope.nvim calls `get_icon()` from devicons.

nvim-tree ~
>lua
    local get = require('nonicons').get

    require('nvim-tree').setup({
      renderer = {
        icons = {
          glyphs = {
            default = get('file'),
            symlink = get('file-symlink-file'),
            folder = {
              default = get('file-directory-fill'),
              open = get('file-directory-open-fill'),
              symlink = get('file-submodule'),
              empty = get('file-directory-outline'),
              arrow_open = get('chevron-down'),
              arrow_closed = get('chevron-right'),
            },
          },
