Problem: compile() unconditionally resolved the reload command, so
:Preview build on a provider with reload = function/table (e.g. typst)
would start a long-running process (typst watch) instead of a one-shot
compile (typst compile). Error diagnostics were also lost because
typst watch does not exit non-zero on input errors.
Solution: add an opts parameter to compile() with a oneshot flag.
M.build() passes { oneshot = true } so resolve_reload_cmd() is
skipped and the one-shot path is always taken. toggle() continues
to call compile() without the flag, preserving long-running behavior
for watch mode.

- Compiler errors as native
vim.diagnostic - User events for extensibility (
PreviewCompileStarted,PreviewCompileSuccess,PreviewCompileFailed)
Requirements
- Neovim 0.11+
Installation
Install with your package manager of choice or via luarocks:

FAQ
Q: How do I define a custom provider?
require('preview').setup({
typst = {
cmd = { 'typst', 'compile' },
args = function(ctx)
return { ctx.file }
end,
output = function(ctx)
return ctx.file:gsub('%.typ$', '.pdf')
end,
},
})
Q: How do I override a preset?
require('preview').setup({
typst = { env = { TYPST_FONT_PATHS = '/usr/share/fonts' } },
})
Q: How do I automatically open the output file?
Set open = true on your provider (all built-in presets have this enabled) to
open the output with vim.ui.open() after the first successful compilation. For
a specific application, pass a command table:
require('preview').setup({
typst = { open = { 'sioyek', '--new-instance' } },
})
