### Getting Help
</details>
- See [tutorial] page to learn the basics of vim-plug
### Usage
Add a vim-plug section to your `~/.vimrc` (or `init.vim` for Neovim)
1. Begin the section with `call plug#begin()`
1. List the plugins with `Plug` commands
1. End the section with `call plug#end()`
For example,
```vim
call plug#begin()
" List your plugins here
Plug 'tpope/vim-sensible'
call plug#end()
```
Reload the file or restart Vim, then you can,
* `:PlugInstall` to install the plugins
* `:PlugUpdate` to install or update the plugins
* `:PlugDiff` to review the changes from the last update

### Usage
### More examples
Add a vim-plug section to your `~/.vimrc` (or `stdpath('config') . '/init.vim'` for Neovim)
The following examples demonstrate the additional features of vim-plug.
1. Begin the section with `call plug#begin([PLUGIN_DIR])`
1. List the plugins with `Plug` commands
1. `call plug#end()` to update `&runtimepath` and initialize plugin system
- Automatically executes `filetype plugin indent on` and `syntax enable`.
You can revert the settings after the call. e.g. `filetype indent off`, `syntax off`, etc.
1. Reload the file or restart Vim and run `:PlugInstall` to install plugins.

### Example: A small [sensible](https://github.com/tpope/vim-sensible) Vim configuration
### Post-update hooks
There are some plugins that require extra steps after installation or update.
In that case, use the `do` option to describe the task to be performed.
```vim
call plug#begin()
Plug 'tpope/vim-sensible'
call plug#end()
Plug 'Shougo/vimproc.vim', { 'do': 'make' }
Plug 'ycm-core/YouCompleteMe', { 'do': './install.py' }
```
If the value starts with `:`, it will be recognized as a Vim command.
```vim
Plug 'fatih/vim-go', { 'do': ':GoInstallBinaries' }
```
To call a Vim function, you can pass a lambda expression like so:
```vim
Plug 'junegunn/fzf', { 'do': { -> fzf#install() } }
```
If you need more control, you can pass a reference to a Vim function that
takes a dictionary argument.
```vim
function! BuildYCM(info)
" info is a dictionary with 3 fields
" - name: name of the plugin
" - status: 'installed', 'updated', or 'unchanged'
" - force: set on PlugInstall! or PlugUpdate!
if a:info.status == 'installed' || a:info.force
!./install.py
endif
endfunction
Plug 'ycm-core/YouCompleteMe', { 'do': function('BuildYCM') }
```
A post-update hook is executed inside the directory of the plugin and only run
when the repository has changed, but you can force it to run unconditionally
with the bang-versions of the commands: `PlugInstall!` and `PlugUpdate!`.
> [!TIP]
> Make sure to escape BARs and double-quotes when you write the `do` option
> inline as they are mistakenly recognized as command separator or the start of
> the trailing comment.
>
> ```vim
> Plug 'junegunn/fzf', { 'do': 'yes \| ./install' }
> ```
>
> But you can avoid the escaping if you extract the inline specification using a

> ```vim

> Plug 'junegunn/fzf', { 'do': g:fzf_install }
> ```
#### `PlugInstall!` and `PlugUpdate!`
The installer takes the following steps when installing/updating a plugin:
1. `git clone` or `git fetch` from its origin
2. Check out branch, tag, or commit and optionally `git merge` remote branch
3. If the plugin was updated (or installed for the first time)
1. Update submodules
2. Execute post-update hooks
The commands with the `!` suffix ensure that all steps are run unconditionally.
