Vim-plug: Cannot install 'AdvancedSorters' with PlugInstall on Macosx, it says 'No plugin to install'

[sebma]

Hi,

Inside Vim, I type :PlugInstall AdvancedSorters and Vim answers No plugin to install.

My .vimrc has the following lines :

call plug#begin('~/.vim/plugged')
" Initialize plugin system
call plug#end()

Do I have to load AdvancedSorters before installing it ?

If so, how do I do that ?

Yes, it should be:

call plug#begin('~/.vim/plugged')
Plug 'vim-scripts/AdvancedSorters'
call plug#end()

and then :PlugInstall

[sebma]

Does it install the AdvancedSorters dependencies also ?

[nfischer]

Does it install the AdvancedSorters dependencies also ?

Does it have any dependencies? If the repo lists any dependencies (check the README), you'll have to install those as additional plugins.

[sebma]

Yes it depends on vim-scripts/ingo-library.

I thought vim-plug was able to resolve and install dependencies.

[junegunn]

Unfortunately there's no standard dependency specification format for Vim plugins.

Hi,

Trying to install matchit with these lines :

Plug 'vim-scripts/matchit'
Plug 'vim-scripts/python_match'

but :PlugInstall says:

remote: Invalid username or password
fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://git::@github.com/vim-scripts/matchit.git/'
remote: Invalid username or password.
fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://git::@github.com/vim-scripts/python_match.git/'

Can you help me ?

[nfischer]

@sebma it should be:

Plug 'vim-scripts/matchit.zip'
Plug 'vim-scripts/python_match.vim'

You need to check the actual repo name before adding them to your vimrc.

@nfischer Thanks a lot !
