Should work fine to install via another method.
Place the 'dots4' animation on line 10 with a delay of 300ms between updates.
:lua require('significant').start_animated_sign(10, 'dots4', 300)
Stop the previously placed animation at line 10.
:lua require('significant').stop_animated_sign(10)
Stop and remove the previously placed animation at line 10.
:lua require('significant').stop_animated_sign(10, {unplace_sign=true})
Stop and replace the previously placed animation at line 10 with a custom sign like "✓"
:lua vim.fn.sign_define('YourSign', {text = '✓'})
:lua require('significant').stop_animated_sign(10, {unplace_sign=false, sign_name='YourSign' })
NOTE: Even if you've since inserted extra lines such that the placed sign is no longer on line 10, you still need to refer to it as line 10.
Check out the demo:
:lua require('significant.demo')
- Add explicit mechanism to extend sprites.
- Utility to stop whatever animation is on the current line.
- Add option to set sprite used after animation finishes.
- Implement principled approach to timeout - right now the animation just plays for 10000 updates.
- Add logging.
- Right now we cannot change an animation, we can only start/stop it. We should be able to change sprites.
- We do not use penlight, so maybe remove it as a dependency for now.
- Principled approach to colors
- Configuration options like default animation, default color, etc.
- Figure out what buffer/window events should kill our animations.
