nvchad setup

[membranobruno]

Hi! I'm using nvchad and trying to setup the distant. The distant itself is installed and I can run command in terminal. I have added

  {
    "chipsenkbeil/distant.nvim",
    branch = "v0.3",
    config = function()
      require("distant"):setup()
    end,
  },

to plugins.lua and restarted nvim but have no result.
Not an editor command: DistantInstall

thanks for any help

What happens if you run the setup command manually after loading up neovim?

:lua require("distant"):setup()

Do you get any error? Does the command :DistantInstall show up? Also, if you already have distant available in the commandline and it's the required version (at the moment, 0.20.0), then you shouldn't need to run :DistantInstall at all.

NvChad lazy loads plugins by default. There are a couple solutions here.

1. Disable lazy loading for distant. This will (mildly) impact startup time if you care about that.

 {
    "chipsenkbeil/distant.nvim",
    branch = "v0.3",
    lazy = false,
    config = function()
      require("distant"):setup()
    end,
  },

2. Add commands that will lazy load distant when called.

 {
    "chipsenkbeil/distant.nvim",
    branch = "v0.3",
    cmd = {
         "DistantLaunch",
         "DistantConnect",
          .... 
    },
    config = function()
      require("distant"):setup()
    end,
  },

I prefer solution 2, but you'll need to type all the commands out.
