Issue
I have installed neovim from the official source using the appimage method Here's the link for that Official installation instructions
after doing all my config settings , i went to apply my config settings. which were followed from my .vimrc. After installing all plugins it said , python support missing.
After all research,i couldn't find any solution. and now here's my nvim +checkhealth
These were the main reason i upgraded to neovim, including the clipboard support . my vim had python3 support , but missing on neovim.
I am on a ubuntu machine. and installed it with appimage.
Solution
Make sure python is set on your $PATH properly.
Set this in your .vimrc or init.lua:
let g:python3_host_prog = 'path/to/python3'
let g:python2_host_prog = 'path/to/python2'
Lua equivalent:
vim.g.python3_host_prog = 'path/to/python3'
vim.g.python2_host_prog = 'path/to/python2'
Install pynvim: bash pip3 install pynvim
This should resolve the lack of python support.
There's more information regarding the reasoning of the requirements in the :help provider-python
manual if you're interested.
