nvim as an external editor in Godot

From godot.nvim

its pretty simple with nvim remote

create a bash script, make it executeable. add the following context:

#!/bin/bash
[ -n "$1" ] && file=$1
nvim --server ~/.cache/nvim/godot.pipe --remote-send ':e '$file'<CR>'

Now start nvim in your project folder and listen to the pipe file:

nvim --listen ~/.cache/nvim/godot.pipe .

Since you probably dont want to type out that huge path, each time you want to start nvim, make it another bashscript and add it to your globals. On my systems its simple named "gvim".

Add external config to your editor settings with the path to the first script:

Done! if you click on the script icon in godot, nvim will open the file. Have fun!

From vim-godot

Navigate to the root of your godot project (where the project.godot is residing) and start a new Neovim like this:

nvim --listen ./godothost

(on Windows you might have to specify a IP:port combination instead, like "127.0.0.1:9696")

Open menu Editor/Editor Settings/ then navigate to General/External/:

• Tick Use external editor
• Add nvim to Exec Path
• Add --server ./godothost --remote-send "<C-\><C-N>:n {file}<CR>{line}G{col}|" to Exec Flags

now when you click on a script in godot it will open it in a new buffer in Neovim.
