nvim-prose

A simple plugin to display reading time and word count.

Installing

Using plug:

Plug 'skwee357/nvim-prose'

Usage

Call setup with the config you want to pass. The default config is shown below

require('nvim-prose').setup {
    wpm = 200.0,
    filetypes = { 'markdown', 'asciidoc' },
    placeholders = {
        words = 'words',
        minutes = 'min'
    }
}

After than, you can use nvim-prose in any location you want (e.g. your status line). It exposes 3 methods:

• word_count() - return the number of words in the document
• reading_time() - return the reading time (in minutes) of the current document
• is_available() - returns whether nvim-prose is supported in the current filetype (based on filetypes provided in the config)

With lualine

If you use lualine, you can set up nvim-prose with it like this:

local prose = require 'nvim-prose'

require 'lualine'.setup {
    ...
    sections = {
        ...
        lualine_x = {
                { prose.word_count,   cond = prose.is_available },
                { prose.reading_time, cond = prose.is_available },
            },
    },
    ...
}
