# Introduction
`nvim-highlite` is a colorscheme template repository for Neovim 0.5+.
This template's _defaults_ focus on:
1. Compatability with [semantic highlighting](https://medium.com/@evnbr/coding-in-color-3a6db2743a1e).
* I was using colorschemes that often did not provide enough highlight groups to provide distinction between tokens.
2. Visibility in any range of blue-light.
* I use `redshift` often, and many colorschemes did not allow for me to see when I had lower color temperatures.
This template's _design_ focuses on:
1. Ease of use and rapid development.
* New features may simply be integrated with current configurations, rather than rewritten over them.
* Merging with the upstream repository is simplified by GitHub, allowing you to select what new defaults to add.
* It provides a large supply of defaults for plugins and programming languages.
* Define a smaller set of "categorical" highlights (see Neovim's `group-name` help page) and many more will `link` automatically.
2. Inversion of Control
* Changes made to the highlighting algorithm won't affect how you write your colorscheme.
* New highlight group attributes which are unaccounted for in older versions will simply be ignored without errors due to Lua's `table`s.
# Prerequisites
1. Neovim 0.5+
# Installation
## Creating Your Own
1. Fork this repository, or clone it with `git clone https://github.com/Iron-E/nvim-highlite`.
2. Follow the instructions in [`colors/highlite.vim`](colors/highlite.vim).
* If you are on a Unix system, use the [setup script](setup.sh) like so:
```sh
chmod +x ./setup.sh
./setup.sh highlite <colorscheme>
```
Where `<colorscheme>` is the name of your desired colorscheme.
* If you are on Windows, rename the files manually.
## Just The Defaults
1. Install a plugin manager such as [`vim-plug`](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug) and use it to "plug" this repository.
```viml
" vim-plug example
Plug "Iron-E/nvim-highlite"
```
2. Specify this colorscheme as your default colorscheme in the `init.vim`:
```viml
" Enable 24-bit color output. Only do this IF your environment supports it.
" This plugin is fully compatible with 8-bit, 16-bit, and 24-bit colors.
set termguicolors
" Use the colorscheme
colorscheme highlite
```
# Usage
## Examples
This repository in itself is an example of how to use `nvim-highlite`. Aside from this, the following colorschemes are built using `nvim-highlite`:
* (if you use this, open an issue and I'll add it here!)
### As Dependency
Below is an example of how to use `nvim-highlite` as a dependency.
* See `:h highlite-usage` for more.
```lua
-- Import nvim-highlite
local highlite = require('highlite')
-- First, define some colors
local red = {'#FF0000', 1, 'red'}
local black = {'#000000', 0, 'black'}
local white = {'#FFFFFF', 255, 'white'}
-- Highlight 'Identifier'
highlite.highlight('Identifier', {bg=red, fg=black, style='bold'})
-- Highlight 'Function' conditionally according to background color.
highlite.highlight('Function', {bg=black, fg=red, light={bg=white}})
-- Link 'Example' to 'Identifier'
highlite.highlight('Example', 'Identifier')
-- You can also reference specific attributes of another highlight group.
highlite.highlight('AnotherExample', {bg=highlite.group'SpellBad'.bg, fg=white})
```
### As Template
Below is an example of how to use `nvim-highlite` as a template.
* See [`highlite.vim`](colors/highlite.vim) for more.
```lua
-- First, define some colors
local red = {'#FF0000', 1, 'red'}
local black = {'#000000', 0, 'black'}
local white = {'#FFFFFF', 255, 'white'}
-- Next define some highlight groups.
local highlight_groups = {
-- Any field which can be set to "NONE" doesn't need to be set, it will be automatically assumed to be "NONE".
Identifier = {bg=red, fg=black, style='bold'},
-- If your colorscheme should respond to multiple background settings, you can do that too:
Function = {bg=black, fg=red, light={bg=white}},
--[[ Note that light/dark differentiation is completely optional. ]]
-- You can also reference specific attributes of another highlight group.
SomethingElse = function(self) return {fg=self.Identifier.fg, bg=self.Function.bg} end,
}
-- The rest is mostly handled by the template.
```
## FAQ
> Why am I receiving `E5108: Error executing lua [string ":lua"]:1: module '<colorscheme>' not found`?
Ensure your colorscheme's base folder is in Neovim's `rtp` before sourcing.
> What syntax files should I use for `X` language?
You can either use [`nvim-treesitter`](https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter), [`nvim-polyglot`](https://github.com/sheerun/vim-polyglot), or one of the following:
