How to map <D-c> and <D-v> to copy/paste when attaching to remote nvim instance

[shahamran]

As suggested in the FAQ, I mapped Cmd+C and Cmd+V to copy/paste and it works when running neovide locally.

But when attaching to a remote server (with the same config), it doesn't work, which is not surprising, since the remote instance doesn't have vim.g.neovide set.

Can anyone help me configure copy-paste correctly?

(local macOS neovide, and remote Linux neovim.)

Also, maybe this use-case is another example for the necessity of #1573.

Yes, we need to implement https://neovim.io/doc/user/provider.html#ui-paste

Ok, I was wrong about vim.g.neovide not being set. The problem was that the configuration for neovide-related options was loaded before neovide was attached. The solution was to configure neovide in a lazier way.

I'm using LazyVim, and moved neovide options from lua/config/options.lua to lua/config/keymaps.lua.
