## Installation
```lua
-- packer
use {
"chrisgrieser/nvim-early-retirement",
config = function () require("early-retirement").setup() end,
}
-- lazy.nvim
{
"chrisgrieser/nvim-early-retirement",
config = true,
event = "VeryLazy",
},
```
## Configuration
```lua
defaultOpts = {
-- If a buffer has been inactive for this many minutes, close it.
retirementAgeMins = 20,
-- Filetypes to ignore.
ignoredFiletypes = {},
-- Ignore files matching this lua pattern; empty string disables this setting.
ignoreFilenamePattern = "",
-- Will not close the alternate file.
ignoreAltFile = true,
-- Minimum number of open buffers for auto-closing to become active. E.g.,
-- by setting this to 4, no auto-closing will take place when you have 3
-- or fewer open buffers. Note that this plugin never closes the currently
-- active buffer, so a number < 2 will effectively disable this setting.
minimumBufferNum = 1,
-- Ignore buffers with unsaved changes. If false, the buffers will
-- automatically be written and then closed.
ignoreUnsavedChangesBufs = true,
-- Ignore non-empty buftypes, for example terminal buffers
ignoreSpecialBuftypes = true,
-- Ignore visible buffers. Buffers that are open in a window or in a tab
-- are considered visible by vim. ("a" in `:buffers`)
ignoreVisibleBufs = true,
-- ignore unloaded buffers. Session-management plugin often add buffers
-- to the buffer list without loading them.
ignoreUnloadedBufs = false,
-- Show notification on closing. Works with plugins like nvim-notify.
notificationOnAutoClose = false,
-- When a file is deleted, for example via an external program, delete the
-- associated buffer as well. Requires Neovim >= 0.10.
-- (This feature is independent from the automatic closing)
deleteBufferWhenFileDeleted = false,
}
```
> [!NOTE]
> You can also have `nvim-early-retirement` ignore certain buffers by setting
> `vim.b.ignore_early_retirement = true`.
