A common problem to most of the developers out there while developing their code is

formatting, they should follow a proper coding standards and styles before commit
their code in any version control system. Today we are going to see how we can
simplify this process by adding plugin to the most famous vim editor.

vim

Before installing plugin in vim, let us install the git.

To install git:

yum install git

After installing the above prerequisite, following are the step by step
instructions to install vim plugin,
Clone git plugin repository

Clone git plugin repository:
Simple, you just need to clone some existing plugin packages. Here I am sharing one
of the famous plugin manager "Vundle" which is a short form for Vim bundle

git clone https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim


Adding contents to .vimrc file
Once the plugin repository is cloned, we should add the below contents into .vimrc
file. (Note: Be careful, just add only the commands which you need)

set nocompatible " required


filetype plugin on " required

" set the runtime path to include Vundle and initialize


set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
call vundle#begin()
"
" " alternatively, pass a path where Vundle should install plugins
" "call vundle#begin('~/some/path/here')
"
" " let Vundle manage Vundle, required
Plugin 'gmarik/Vundle.vim'

" " Add all your plugins here (note older versions of Vundle used Bundle
" instead of Plugin)

Plugin Installation
Login into your linux machine terminal and type
vim
After entering into vim type
:PluginInstall
PluginInstall will take care of installing all the plugins we mentioned in
the .vimrc file, once all the plugins are installed just type :q to exit from the
buffer window
:q
Verification
Just to make sure that everything works fine, open your vim editor and start
writing your code and you could see that your plugin installation and its features
are working fine as expected.
