INSTALLATION                                                 *plug-installation*
==============================================================================

{Download plug.vim}{3} and put it in the "autoload" directory.

       {3} https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim


USAGE                                                               *plug-usage*
==============================================================================

Add a vim-plug section to your `~/.vimrc` (or `init.vim` for Neovim)

                                                           *plug#begin* *plug#end*

 1. Begin the section with `call plug#begin()`
 2. List the plugins with `Plug` commands
 3. End the section with `call plug#end()`

For example,
>
    call plug#begin()

    " List your plugins here
    Plug 'tpope/vim-sensible'

    call plug#end()
<
Reload the file or restart Vim, then you can,

                                            *:PlugInstall* *:PlugUpdate* *:PlugDiff*

 - `:PlugInstall` to install the plugins
 - `:PlugUpdate` to install or update the plugins
 - `:PlugDiff` to review the changes from the last update

[!NOTE] That's basically all you need to know to get started. The rest of the
document is for advanced users who want to know more about the features and
options.

In Neovim, you can write your configuration in a Lua script file named
`init.lua`. The following code is the Lua script equivalent to the Vim script
example above.

KEYBINDINGS                                                   *plug-keybindings*
==============================================================================

 - `D` - `PlugDiff`
 - `S` - `PlugStatus`
 - `R` - Retry failed update or installation tasks
 - `U` - Update plugins in the selected range
 - `q` - Close the window
 - `:PlugStatus`
   - `L` - Load plugin
 - `:PlugDiff`
   - `X` - Revert the update


POST-UPDATE HOOKS                                       *plug-post-update-hooks*
==============================================================================

There are some plugins that require extra steps after installation or update.
In that case, use the `do` option to describe the task to be performed.
>
    Plug 'Shougo/vimproc.vim', { 'do': 'make' }
    Plug 'ycm-core/YouCompleteMe', { 'do': './install.py' }
<
If the value starts with `:`, it will be recognized as a Vim command.
>
    Plug 'fatih/vim-go', { 'do': ':GoInstallBinaries' }
<
To call a Vim function, you can pass a lambda expression like so:
>
    Plug 'junegunn/fzf', { 'do': { -> fzf#install() } }
<
If you need more control, you can pass a reference to a Vim function that
takes a dictionary argument.
>
    function! BuildYCM(info)
      " info is a dictionary with 3 fields
      " - name:   name of the plugin
      " - status: 'installed', 'updated', or 'unchanged'
      " - force:  set on PlugInstall! or PlugUpdate!
      if a:info.status == 'installed' || a:info.force
        !./install.py
      endif
    endfunction

    Plug 'ycm-core/YouCompleteMe', { 'do': function('BuildYCM') }
<
A post-update hook is executed inside the directory of the plugin and only run
when the repository has changed, but you can force it to run unconditionally
with the bang-versions of the commands: `PlugInstall!` and `PlugUpdate!`.

[!TIP] Make sure to escape BARs and double-quotes when you write the `do`
option inline as they are mistakenly recognized as command separator or the
start of the trailing comment.
>
    Plug 'junegunn/fzf', { 'do': 'yes \| ./install' }
<
But you can avoid the escaping if you extract the inline specification using a
variable (or any Vim script expression) as follows:
>
    let g:fzf_install = 'yes | ./install'
    Plug 'junegunn/fzf', { 'do': g:fzf_install }
<

< PlugInstall! and PlugUpdate! >______________________________________________~
                                                    *pluginstall-and-plugupdate*

The installer takes the following steps when installing/updating a plugin:

 1. `git clone` or `git fetch` from its origin
 2. Check out branch, tag, or commit and optionally `git merge` remote branch
 3. If the plugin was updated (or installed for the first time)
   1. Update submodules
   2. Execute post-update hooks

The commands with the `!` suffix ensure that all steps are run
unconditionally.


ON-DEMAND LOADING OF PLUGINS                 *plug-on-demand-loading-of-plugins*
==============================================================================
>
    " NERD tree will be loaded on the first invocation of NERDTreeToggle command
    Plug 'preservim/nerdtree', { 'on': 'NERDTreeToggle' }

    " Multiple commands
    Plug 'junegunn/vim-github-dashboard', { 'on': ['GHDashboard', 'GHActivity'] }

    " Loaded when clojure file is opened
    Plug 'tpope/vim-fireplace', { 'for': 'clojure' }

    " Multiple file types
    Plug 'kovisoft/paredit', { 'for': ['clojure', 'scheme'] }

    " On-demand loading on both conditions
    Plug 'junegunn/vader.vim',  { 'on': 'Vader', 'for': 'vader' }

    " Code to execute when the plugin is lazily loaded on demand
    Plug 'junegunn/goyo.vim', { 'for': 'markdown' }
    autocmd! User goyo.vim echom 'Goyo is now loaded!'
<
[!NOTE] #### Should I set up on-demand loading?

You probably don't need to.

A properly implemented Vim plugin should already load lazily without any help
from a plugin manager (`:help autoload`). So there are few cases where these
options actually make much sense. Making a plugin load faster is the
responsibility of the plugin developer, not the user. If you find a plugin
that takes too long to load, consider opening an issue on the plugin's issue
tracker.

Let me give you a perspective. The time it takes to load a plugin is usually
less than 2 or 3ms on modern computers. So unless you use a very large number
of plugins, you are unlikely to save more than 50ms. If you have spent an hour
carefully setting up the options to shave off 50ms, you will have to start Vim
72,000 times just to break even. You should ask yourself if that's a good
investment of your time.

Make sure that you're tackling the right problem by breaking down the startup
time of Vim using `--startuptime`.
>
    vim --startuptime /tmp/log
<
On-demand loading should only be used as a last resort. It is basically a
hacky workaround and is not always guaranteed to work.

                                                                     *plug#load*

[!TIP] You can pass an empty list to `on` or `for` option to disable the
loading of the plugin. You can manually load the plugin using
`plug#load(NAMES...)` function.
