INTRODUCTION *lightline-introduction*
The *lightline* plugin is a light and configurable statusline/tabline for Vim.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SPIRIT *lightline-spirit*
Minimalism
The core script is very small to achieve enough functions as a
statusline plugin.
Configurability
You can create your own component and easily add to the statusline
and the tabline.
Orthogonality
The plugin does not rely on the implementation of other plugins.
Such plugin crossing settings should be configured by users.
You find this plugin does not integrate with other plugins by default.
This plugin does not provide branch information, which is a basic
component in existing statusline plugins. It is a design of
lightline.vim that such plugin crossing configuration should be
written by users. Once a plugin starts to integrate with some famous
plugins, it should be kept updated to follow the changes of the
plugins and should accept integration requests with new plugins.
Instead, lightline.vim is designed very carefully so that users can
easily integrate with other plugins. Good APIs keep a plugin clean.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPTIONS *lightline-option*
g:lightline *g:lightline*
All the configurations are stored in this global variable.
g:lightline.active *g:lightline.active*
g:lightline.inactive *g:lightline.inactive*
g:lightline.tabline *g:lightline.tabline*
Dictionaries to store the statusline/tabline components.
Note that right groups of components are stored from right to
left.
The default values are:
>
let g:lightline.active = {
\ 'left': [ [ 'mode', 'paste' ],
\ [ 'readonly', 'filename', 'modified' ] ],
\ 'right': [ [ 'lineinfo' ],
\ [ 'percent' ],
\ [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ] ] }
let g:lightline.inactive = {
\ 'left': [ [ 'filename' ] ],
\ 'right': [ [ 'lineinfo' ],
\ [ 'percent' ] ] }
let g:lightline.tabline = {
\ 'left': [ [ 'tabs' ] ],
\ 'right': [ [ 'close' ] ] }
<
g:lightline.tab *g:lightline.tab*
A dictionary to store the tab components in each tabs.
The default values are:
>
let g:lightline.tab = {
\ 'active': [ 'tabnum', 'filename', 'modified' ],
\ 'inactive': [ 'tabnum', 'filename', 'modified' ] }
<
g:lightline.component *g:lightline.component*
A dictionary for statusline/tabline components.
The default value is:
>
let g:lightline.component = {
\ 'mode': '%{lightline#mode()}',
\ 'absolutepath': '%F',
\ 'relativepath': '%f',
\ 'filename': '%t',
\ 'modified': '%M',
\ 'bufnum': '%n',
\ 'paste': '%{&paste?"PASTE":""}',
\ 'readonly': '%R',
\ 'charvalue': '%b',
\ 'charvaluehex': '%B',
\ 'fileencoding': '%{&fenc!=#""?&fenc:&enc}',
\ 'fileformat': '%{&ff}',
\ 'filetype': '%{&ft!=#""?&ft:"no ft"}',
\ 'percent': '%3p%%',
\ 'percentwin': '%P',
\ 'spell': '%{&spell?&spelllang:""}',
\ 'lineinfo': '%3l:%-2c',
\ 'line': '%l',
\ 'column': '%c',
\ 'close': '%999X X ',
\ 'winnr': '%{winnr()}' }
<
g:lightline.component_visible_condition
*g:lightline.component_visible_condition*
A dictionary to store the visible condition of the components.
Note that this configuration is used to control the visibility
of the subseparators, not to control the visibility of the
components themselves. Each expression should correspond to
the condition on which each component is not empty.
The default value is:
>
let g:lightline.component_visible_condition = {
\ 'modified': '&modified||!&modifiable',
\ 'readonly': '&readonly',
\ 'paste': '&paste',
\ 'spell': '&spell' }
<
g:lightline.component_function *g:lightline.component_function*
A dictionary to store the function components.
This is useful to write a complex component configuration and
to integrate with other plugins. If a component set in both
component and component_function, the configuration of
component_function has priority.
The default value is:
>
let g:lightline.component_function = {}
<
For example, if you want to display the name of the git branch,
install |vim-fugitive| plugin and then configure as:
>
let g:lightline = {
\ 'active': {
\ 'left': [ [ 'mode', 'paste' ],
\ [ 'gitbranch', 'readonly', 'filename', 'modified' ] ]
\ },
\ 'component_function': {
\ 'gitbranch': 'FugitiveHead'
\ },
\ }
<
If you simply want to display the branch name instead of
installing a plugin for full git integration, you can use
vim-gitbranch (https://github.com/itchyny/vim-gitbranch).
g:lightline.component_function_visible_condition
*g:lightline.component_function_visible_condition*
A dictionary to store the visible conditions of the function
components. Each expression should correspond to the condition
each component is not empty. This configuration is used to
control the visibility of the sub-separators. You can use this
configuration to reduce the number of function calls for
performance improvement by setting the value 1 (to tell lightline
that the component is always visible).
The default value is:
>
let g:lightline.component_function_visible_condition = {}
<
g:lightline.component_expand *g:lightline.component_expand*
A dictionary to store expanding components. You can create
warning and critical components. The values should be the name
of functions should return either one of:
+ a string
+ an array of three elements:
[[ left ], [ middle ], [ right ]]
The component in this dictionary has priority over
|g:lightline.component| and |g:lightline.component_function|.
Note that the return string is appended to the statusline
string without any conversion. So you should replace all the
% signs with %%. Otherwise, lightline will be disabled in case
the text has a % sign.
(example: return substitute(text, '%', '%%', 'g')).
See |lightline-component-expansion| for more detail.
>
let g:lightline.component_expand = {
\ 'tabs': 'lightline#tabs' }
<
g:lightline.component_type *g:lightline.component_type*
A dictionary to specify the types for components in
|g:lightline.component_expand|. The types are used to specify
the color. Specifically, the type raw is used to specify a
component which should not be wrapped by item group: %(...%).
If you want to specify the type of a raw component, please use
|g:lightline.component_raw|.
The default value is: >
let g:lightline.component_type = {
\ 'tabs': 'tabsel',
\ 'close': 'raw' }
<
g:lightline.component_raw *g:lightline.component_raw*
A dictionary to specify the raw type components. When you
register a component to this dictionary (like >
let g:lightline.component_raw = { 'example': 1 }
< ), the example component is not wrapped by item group: %(...%).
The default value is: >
let g:lightline.component_raw = {}
<
g:lightline.tab_component *g:lightline.tab_component*
A dictionary for components in one tab.
The default value is: >
let g:lightline.tab_component = {}
<
g:lightline.tab_component_function *g:lightline.tab_component_function*
Another dictionary for components in one tab.
A function specified as a tab component takes one argument:
the tab [count].
The default value is:
>
let g:lightline.tab_component_function = {
\ 'filename': 'lightline#tab#filename',
\ 'modified': 'lightline#tab#modified',
\ 'readonly': 'lightline#tab#readonly',
\ 'tabnum': 'lightline#tab#tabnum' }
<
g:lightline.colorscheme *g:lightline.colorscheme*
The colorscheme for lightline.vim.

then the left sub-separator is used. Otherwise, the right
sub-separator is used.
lightline#palette() *lightline#palette()*
Returns the palette data.
==============================================================================
COMPONENT EXPANSION *lightline-component-expansion*
You can create components, which have specific colors. This section gives an
example using |syntastic|.
If you want to add the |syntastic| flag to the statusline, an easy example is:
>
" Example A
let g:lightline = {
\ 'active': {
\ 'right': [ [ 'lineinfo', 'syntastic' ],
\ [ 'percent' ],
\ [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ] ]
\ },
\ 'component_function': {
\ 'syntastic': 'SyntasticStatuslineFlag',
\ }
\ }
let g:syntastic_mode_map = { 'mode': 'passive',
\ 'active_filetypes': ['c', 'cpp'] }
<
However, the color of the syntastic component is the same as the lineinfo
component.
In order to change the syntastic component more outstanding, you have to use
|g:lightline.component_expand|. See the following example:
>
" Example B
let g:lightline = {
\ 'active': {
\ 'right': [ [ 'syntastic', 'lineinfo' ],
\ [ 'percent' ],
\ [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ] ]
\ },
\ 'component_expand': {
\ 'syntastic': 'SyntasticStatuslineFlag',
\ },
\ 'component_type': {
\ 'syntastic': 'error',
\ }
\ }
" Syntastic can call a post-check hook, let's update lightline there
" For more information: :help syntastic-loclist-callback
function! SyntasticCheckHook(errors)
call lightline#update()
endfunction
<
In order to understand the above codes, you firstly should know how the
colorschemes work in lightline.vim. Open the following file.
autoload/lightline/colorscheme/powerline.vim
The colorscheme is created by one dictionary: s:p (abbreviation for palette).
See the value of s:p.normal.right.
>
let s:p.normal.right = [ ['gray5', 'gray10'],
\ ['gray9', 'gray4'],
\ ['gray8', 'gray2'] ]
<
This array corresponds to the structure of g:lightline.active.right. Recall
the example A.
>
" Example A
let g:lightline.active.right = [ [ 'lineinfo', 'syntastic' ],
\ [ 'percent' ],
\ [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ] ]
<
The colors are ([fgcolor, bgcolor):
>
(0) [ 'lineinfo', 'syntastic' ] --- s:p.normal.right[0] = ['gray5', 'gray10']
(1) [ 'percent' ] --- s:p.normal.right[1] = ['gray9', 'gray4']
(2) [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ] --- s:p.normal.right[2] = ['gray8', 'gray2']
<
Recall the example B.
>
" Example B
let g:lightline.active.right = [ [ 'syntastic', 'lineinfo' ],
\ [ 'percent' ],
\ [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ] ]
<
If a component is specified in |g:lightline.component_expand|, lightline.vim
expands the components before setting to statusline/tabline. In this example,
the syntastic component is expanded using the |SyntasticStatuslineFlag| function.
This function returns a {string}. Let us call it `syntastic_flag`.
>
let syntastic_flag = SyntasticStatuslineFlag()
<
The syntastic component is now expanded, so it go up to one component group.
The type of the syntastic component is error, and the palette has error
colors, the result is:
>
" Expanded result of Example B
(error) [ syntastic_flag ] --- s:p.normal.error[0] = ['gray9', 'brightestred']
(0) [ 'lineinfo' ] --- s:p.normal.right[0] = ['gray5', 'gray10']
(1) [ 'percent' ] --- s:p.normal.right[1] = ['gray9', 'gray4']
(2) [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ] --- s:p.normal.right[2] = ['gray8', 'gray2']
<
Thus the syntastic component has the red color.
Another example for |g:lightline.component_expand| is the tabs component.
Actually, the expand feature is created for the tabs component.
>
let g:lightline.tabline.left = [ [ 'tabs' ] ]
let g:lightline.component_expand = {
\ 'tabs': 'lightline#tabs' }
<
Create three tabs and select the middle tab. Then execute
>
echo lightline#tabs()
" [['%1T%{lightline#onetab(1,0)}'],
" ['%2T%{lightline#onetab(2,1)}'],
" ['%3T%{lightline#onetab(3,0)}%T']]
<
It returns an array of three elements. The expanded result is:
>
" Expanded result of tabline
(0) ['%1T%{lightline#onetab(1,0)}'] --- s:p.tabline.left[0] = ['gray9', 'gray4']
(tabsel) ['%2T%{lightline#onetab(2,1)}'] --- s:p.tabline.tabsel[0] = ['gray9', 'gray1']
(0) ['%3T%{lightline#onetab(3,0)}%T'] --- s:p.tabline.left[0] = ['gray9', 'gray4']
<
If the tabline components are
>
let g:lightline.tabline.left = [ [ 'A', 'B', 'tabs', 'C', 'D' ] ]
<
then the expanded result is:
>
(0) ['A', 'B', '%1T%{lightline#onetab(1,0)}'] --- s:p.tabline.left[0]
(tabsel) ['%2T%{lightline#onetab(2,1)}'] --- s:p.tabline.tabsel[0]
(0) ['%3T%{lightline#onetab(3,0)}%T', 'C', 'D'] --- s:p.tabline.left[0]
<
In summary, when a function in |g:lightline.component_expand| returns an
array of three elements, the first element and the last element remains as a
part of existing component group. And the middle element goes up to new
component group.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COLORSCHEME *lightline-colorscheme*
You can configure the colorscheme of lightline. For example,
>
let g:lightline = {
\ 'colorscheme': 'wombat',
\ }
<
The colorscheme files are found in the directory
lightline.vim/autoload/lightline/colorscheme/
In each file, one global variable is defined. For example, in the landscape.vim
file, you see
>
let g:lightline#colorscheme#landscape#palette = s:p
<
In the file, the colors for the landscape colorscheme are defined. For example,
>
let s:p.normal.left = [ ['#0000ff', '#ffffff', 21, 231, 'bold' ], [ '#ffffff', '#0000ff', 231, 21 ] ]
<
defines the colors for the components on the left hand side, in normal mode.
>
let s:p.tabline.tabsel = [ [ '#dadada', '#121212', 253, 233 ] ]
<
defines the colors for the selected tab in tabline. In general, each palette
follows the following style:
>
let s:p.{mode}.{where} = [ [ {guifg}, {guibg}, {ctermfg}, {ctermbg} ], ... ]
<
Now, you can create your own colorscheme for lightline. Create a
yourcolorscheme.vim at
{one of the paths in &rtp}/autoload/lightline/colorscheme/yourcolorscheme.vim
The following code gives the minimal palette definition for lightline.
>
let s:p = {'normal': {}}
let s:p.normal.left = [ [ ... ] ]
let s:p.normal.right = [ [ ... ] ]
let s:p.normal.middle = [ [ ... ] ]
let g:lightline#colorscheme#yourcolorscheme#palette = s:p
<
And if you add the colorscheme configuration to your .vimrc(_vimrc),
>
let g:lightline = {
\ 'colorscheme': 'yourcolorscheme',
\ }
<
you find it possible to change the lightline colors as you wish.
Moreover, if you want to change the colors based on the mode of vim, write
something like this:
>
let s:p.insert.left = [ [ ... ] ]
let s:p.insert.right = [ [ ... ] ]
let s:p.replace.left = [ [ ... ] ]
let s:p.replace.right = [ [ ... ] ]
...
...
<
For expanded components, you are recommended to define the following two
colors.
>
let s:p.normal.error = [ [ ... ] ]
let s:p.normal.warning = [ [ ... ] ]
<
For the complete list of components the color of which you should define in
your colorscheme, see the colorscheme files in lightline.
It is sometimes painful to write all the colors for both gui and cterm.
Actually, lightline has some useful functions for writing colorschemes. For
example, see
lightline.vim/autoload/lightline/colorscheme/Tomorrow_Night.vim
this colorscheme is defined using only gui color numbers. And convert to the
normal colorscheme form using:
>
let g:lightline#colorscheme#Tomorrow_Night#palette = lightline#colorscheme#fill(s:p)
<
This function fills the cterm colors for a palette which has only gui colors, or
vice versa. However, note that using the convenient function sources an
additional Vim script file (autoload/lightline/colorscheme.vim), which causes
a little slow down. If you want to avoid this situation, write all the colors
as done in autoload/lightline/colorscheme/landscape.vim; firstly create the
colorscheme using the fill function, and see the result, in a sense, the
compiled version of your colorscheme.
>
echo g:lightline#colorscheme#yourcolorscheme#palette
<
Then copy and paste the result to the colorscheme file.
If you want to contribute a new colorscheme that is not currently available
please follow the following rules:
*) All hex codes should be lowercase only
*) Use 2 space soft tabs
*) If your colorscheme has both light and dark variants, use a single file
*) Normal Mode should default to Cyan
*) Insert Mode should default to Green
*) Visual Mode should default to Yellow
*) Replace Mode should default to Red

Problem 6: *lightline-problem-6*
How to use a powerline font and the triangles for separators.
Using a patched font is not recommended due to less
portability. Also the powerline fonts project is not actively
maintained (https://github.com/powerline/fonts).
If you still want to use a patched font, you can configure
>
\ 'separator': { 'left': "\ue0b0", 'right': "\ue0b2" },
\ 'subseparator': { 'left': "\ue0b1", 'right': "\ue0b3" },
<
or
>
\ 'separator': { 'left': "\u2b80", 'right': "\u2b82" },
\ 'subseparator': { 'left': "\u2b81", 'right': "\u2b83" },
<

buffers.
Add the following settings to your .vimrc(_vimrc).
>
let g:unite_force_overwrite_statusline = 0
let g:vimfiler_force_overwrite_statusline = 0
let g:vimshell_force_overwrite_statusline = 0
<
Problem 11: *lightline-problem-11*
Cool statusline disappears in |CtrlP|, |Tagbar| buffers.
Add the following settings to your .vimrc(_vimrc).
>
let g:ctrlp_status_func = {
\ 'main': 'CtrlPStatusFunc_1',
\ 'prog': 'CtrlPStatusFunc_2',
\ }
function! CtrlPStatusFunc_1(focus, byfname, regex, prev, item, next, marked)
return lightline#statusline(0)
endfunction
function! CtrlPStatusFunc_2(str)
return lightline#statusline(0)
endfunction
let g:tagbar_status_func = 'TagbarStatusFunc'
function! TagbarStatusFunc(current, sort, fname, ...) abort
return lightline#statusline(0)
endfunction
<
See |lightline-example| for more cool settings for
these plugins.
Problem 12: *lightline-problem-12*
How to make the plus sign red like |powerline|?
Use the following settings.
>
let g:lightline = {
\ 'component': {
\ 'modified': '%#ModifiedColor#%{LightlineModified()}',
\ }
\ }
function! LightlineModified()
let map = { 'V': 'n', "\<C-v>": 'n', 's': 'n', 'v': 'n', "\<C-s>": 'n', 'c': 'n', 'R': 'n'}
let mode = get(map, mode()[0], mode()[0])
let bgcolor = {'n': [240, '#585858'], 'i': [31, '#0087af']}
let color = get(bgcolor, mode, bgcolor.n)
exe printf('hi ModifiedColor ctermfg=196 ctermbg=%d guifg=#ff0000 guibg=%s term=bold cterm=bold',
\ color[0], color[1])
return &modified ? '+' : &modifiable ? '' : '-'
endfunction
<
It's surely complicated. There's no easy API to do a thing
like this. But it means that your request does not match
the spirit of lightline.
Problem 13: *lightline-problem-13*
How to change the lightline colorscheme on the fly.
To update your lightline colorscheme in sync with your vim
colorscheme (only for select colorschemes which exist for
both), add the following settings to your .vimrc(_vimrc).
>
augroup LightlineColorscheme
autocmd!
autocmd ColorScheme * call s:lightline_update()
augroup END
function! s:lightline_update()
if !exists('g:loaded_lightline')
return
endif
try
if g:colors_name =~# 'wombat\|solarized\|landscape\|jellybeans\|seoul256\|Tomorrow'
let g:lightline.colorscheme =
\ substitute(substitute(g:colors_name, '-', '_', 'g'), '256.*', '', '')
call lightline#init()
call lightline#colorscheme()
call lightline#update()
endif
catch
endtry
endfunction
<
If you have not settled on a single lightline colorscheme, you
can easily switch between lightline colorschemes by adding the
following LightlineColorscheme command to your .vimrc(_vimrc).
>
function! s:set_lightline_colorscheme(name) abort
let g:lightline.colorscheme = a:name
call lightline#init()
call lightline#colorscheme()
call lightline#update()
endfunction
function! s:lightline_colorschemes(...) abort
return join(map(
\ globpath(&rtp,"autoload/lightline/colorscheme/*.vim",1,1),
\ "fnamemodify(v:val,':t:r')"),
\ "\n")
endfunction
command! -nargs=1 -complete=custom,s:lightline_colorschemes LightlineColorscheme
\ call s:set_lightline_colorscheme(<q-args>)
<
Problem 14: *lightline-problem-14*
The 'E541' warning appears on the right hand side.
Many components disable the statusline of lightline.
The number of items in statusline/tabline is limited to 80
(see |E541|). You cannot register too much components.
Problem 15: *lightline-problem-15*
Do not deal with the tabline.
Do not use the fancy separators in the tabline.
You can disable the tabline feature of lightline.vim using:
>
let g:lightline = {
\ 'enable': { 'tabline': 0 },
\ }
<
If you don't like the separators in the tabline, use:
>
let g:lightline = {
\ 'tabline_separator': { 'left': '', 'right': '' },
\ 'tabline_subseparator': { 'left': '', 'right': '' },
\ }
<
Problem 16: *lightline-problem-16*
When changed the component to a function component to an expanding
component, the statusline of lightline is sometimes disabled.
When you changed from
>
\ 'component_function': {
\ 'my': 'My',
\ }
<
to
>
\ 'component_expand': {
\ 'my': 'My',
\ }
<
the statusline of lightline is disabled unexpectedly.
In such a case, the text returned by 'My' function may include
the '%' character. Replace all the '%' signs with '%%'.
>
function My()
...
return substitute(text, '%', '%%', 'g')
endfunction
<
Problem 17: *lightline-problem-17*
