tiny-mkpath.nvim

A tiny plugin for Neovim 0.12+ that automatically creates parent directories when saving a file.

Zero config. ~12 lines of Lua.

Features

  • Auto-creates missing parent directories on save
  • Skips remote URLs (e.g. scp://, ftp://)
  • Works out of the box — no setup call required

Requirements

  • Neovim >= 0.12

Installation

Add to your vim.pack.add() call:

"https://github.com/swaits/tiny-mkpath.nvim",

How it works

On BufWritePre, if the parent directory doesn't exist, it creates it with mkdir -p semantics. So :w brand/new/path/file.lua just works.
