neovim/pynvim: Python client and plugin host for Nvim

Pynvim: Python client to Neovim

Pynvim implements support for python plugins in Nvim. It also works as a library for connecting to and scripting Nvim processes through its msgpack-rpc API.

Supports python 3.7 or later.

Pynvim supports python remote plugins (via the language-agnostic Nvim rplugin interface), as well as Vim plugins (via the :python3 interface). Thus when pynvim is installed Neovim will report support for the +python3 Vim feature.

The rplugin interface allows plugins to handle vimL function calls as well as defining commands and autocommands, and such plugins can operate asynchronously without blocking nvim. For details on the new rplugin interface, see the Remote Plugin documentation.

Pynvim defines some extensions over the vim python API:

See the Python Plugin API documentation for usage of this new functionality.

Use (and activate) a local virtualenv, for example:

python3 -m virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate

If you change the code, you must reinstall for the changes to take effect:

Use pytest to run the tests. Invoking with python -m prepends the current directory to sys.path (otherwise pytest might find other versions!):

For details about testing and troubleshooting, see the development documentation.

Usage from the Python REPL

A number of different transports are supported, but the simplest way to get started is with the python REPL. First, start Nvim with a known address:

$ nvim --listen /tmp/nvim.sock

Or alternatively, note the v:servername address of a running Nvim instance.

In another terminal, connect a python REPL to Nvim (note that the API is similar to the one exposed by the python-vim bridge):

>>> import pynvim
# Create a session attached to Nvim's address (`v:servername`).
>>> nvim = pynvim.attach('socket', path='/tmp/nvim.sock')
# Now do some work.
>>> buffer = nvim.current.buffer # Get the current buffer
>>> buffer[0] = 'replace first line'
>>> buffer[:] = ['replace whole buffer']
>>> nvim.command('vsplit')
>>> nvim.windows[1].width = 10
>>> nvim.vars['global_var'] = [1, 2, 3]
>>> nvim.eval('g:global_var')
[1, 2, 3]

You can embed Neovim into your python application instead of connecting to a running Neovim instance.

>>> import pynvim
>>> nvim = pynvim.attach('child', argv=["/usr/bin/env", "nvim", "--embed", "--headless"])

See the tests for more examples.

  1. Create a release commit with title Pynvim x.y.z
  2. Make a release on GitHub with the same commit/version tag and copy the message.
  3. Run scripts/disable_log_statements.sh
  4. Run python -m build
  5. Run twine upload -r pypi dist/*
  6. Run scripts/enable_log_statements.sh or git reset --hard to restore the working dir.
  7. Bump up to the next development version in pynvim/_version.py, with prerelease suffix dev0.
