Installing Elm-pair for Neovim using Nix home-manager

This page describes how to install Elm-pair for Neovim using home-manager. It assumes you're already using home-manager for managing your Neovim configuration.

If you run into trouble we'd love to help. Please reach out!

1. Open your home-mananger configuration and modify the section configuring Neovim to make it look like this:

   { pkgs, ... }:
   
   {
     programs.neovim = {
       enable = true;
       plugins =
         let
           elm-pair = pkgs.fetchFromGitHub {
             owner = "jwoudenberg";
             repo = "elm-pair";
             rev = "release-latest";
             sha256 = lib.fakeSha256;
           };
         in [ (import elm-pair).neovim-plugin ];
     };
   }
   

2. Save your home-manager configuration file and apply it by running home-manager switch. This command will fail with a hash mismatch error. Replace lib.fakeSha256 in the code above with the correct hash provided in the error message.

3. run home-manager switch again to install Elm-pair.
