# Introduction
> `:h mason-introduction`
`mason.nvim` is a Neovim plugin that allows you to easily manage external editor tooling such as LSP servers, DAP servers,
linters, and formatters through a single interface. It runs everywhere Neovim runs (across Linux, macOS, Windows, etc.),
with only a small set of [external requirements](#requirements) needed.
Packages are installed to Neovim's `:h stdpath` by default. Executables are linked to a single `bin/` directory, which
`mason.nvim` will add to Neovim's PATH during setup, allowing seamless access from Neovim builtins (shell, terminal,
etc.) as well as other 3rd party plugins.
For a list of all available packages, see [PACKAGES.md](./PACKAGES.md).
## How to use installed packages
> `:h mason-how-to-use-packages`
Although many packages are perfectly usable out of the box through Neovim builtins, it is recommended to use other 3rd
party plugins to further integrate these. The following plugins are recommended:
- LSP: [`lspconfig`][lspconfig] & [`mason-lspconfig.nvim`][mason-lspconfig.nvim]
- DAP: [`nvim-dap`][nvim-dap]
- Linters: [`null-ls.nvim`][null-ls.nvim] or [`nvim-lint`][nvim-lint]
- Formatters: [`null-ls.nvim`][null-ls.nvim] or [`formatter.nvim`][formatter.nvim]

# Requirements
> `:h mason-requirements`
`mason.nvim` relaxes the minimum requirements by attempting multiple different utilities (for example, `wget`,
`curl`, and `Invoke-WebRequest` are all perfect substitutes).
The _minimum_ recommended requirements are:
- neovim `>= 0.7.0`
- For Unix systems: `git(1)`, `curl(1)` or `wget(1)`, `unzip(1)`, `tar(1)`, `gzip(1)`
- For Windows systems: powershell, git, tar, and [7zip][7zip] or [peazip][peazip] or [archiver][archiver] or [winzip][winzip] or [WinRAR][winrar]
Note that `mason.nvim` will regularly shell out to external package managers, such as `cargo` and `npm`. Depending on
your personal usage, some of these will also need to be installed. Refer to `:checkhealth mason` for a full list.

# Installation
## [Packer](https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim)
```lua
use { "williamboman/mason.nvim" }
```
## vim-plug
```vim
Plug 'williamboman/mason.nvim'
```
# Setup
> `:h mason-quickstart`
```lua
require("mason").setup()
```
`mason.nvim` is optimized to load as little as possible during setup. Lazy-loading the plugin, or somehow deferring the
setup, is not recommended.
Refer to the [Configuration](#configuration) section for information about which settings are available.
## Extensions
Refer to the [Wiki](https://github.com/williamboman/mason.nvim/wiki/Extensions) for a list of 3rd party extensions.
- [`mason-lspconfig.nvim`](https://github.com/williamboman/mason-lspconfig.nvim) - recommended for usage with `lspconfig`
# Commands
> `:h mason-commands`
- `:Mason` - opens a graphical status window
- `:MasonInstall <package> ...` - installs/reinstalls the provided packages
- `:MasonUninstall <package> ...` - uninstalls the provided packages
- `:MasonUninstallAll` - uninstalls all packages
- `:MasonLog` - opens the `mason.nvim` log file in a new tab window
# Configuration
> `:h mason-settings`
You may optionally configure certain behavior of `mason.nvim` when calling the `.setup()` function. Refer to the
[default configuration](#default-configuration) for a list of all available settings.
Example:
```lua
require("mason").setup({
ui = {
icons = {
package_installed = "✓",
package_pending = "➜",
package_uninstalled = "✗"
}
}
})
```
## Default configuration
```lua
local DEFAULT_SETTINGS = {
-- The directory in which to install packages.
install_root_dir = path.concat { vim.fn.stdpath "data", "mason" },
-- Where Mason should put its bin location in your PATH. Can be one of:
-- - "prepend" (default, Mason's bin location is put first in PATH)
-- - "append" (Mason's bin location is put at the end of PATH)
-- - "skip" (doesn't modify PATH)
---@type '"prepend"' | '"append"' | '"skip"'
PATH = "prepend",
pip = {
-- These args will be added to `pip install` calls. Note that setting extra args might impact intended behavior
-- and is not recommended.
--
-- Example: { "--proxy", "https://proxyserver" }
install_args = {},

-- debugging issues with package installations.

},
-- The provider implementations to use for resolving package metadata (latest version, available versions, etc.).
-- Accepts multiple entries, where later entries will be used as fallback should prior providers fail.
-- Builtin providers are:
-- - mason.providers.registry-api (default) - uses the https://api.mason-registry.dev API
-- - mason.providers.client - uses only client-side tooling to resolve metadata
providers = {
"mason.providers.registry-api",
},
ui = {
-- Whether to automatically check for new versions when opening the :Mason window.
check_outdated_packages_on_open = true,
