`rust-tools` not found

[TornaxO7]

I'm getting the following error message

Reproduction steps

init.lua

packer.startup(function(use)
    use 'wbthomason/packer.nvim'

    use 'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim'

    use {
        'neovim/nvim-lspconfig',
        opt = true,
        cmd = "LspStart",
        requires = {
            {'nvim-lua/lsp-status.nvim'},
            {'folke/lsp-colors.nvim'},
            {'kosayoda/nvim-lightbulb'},
            {'jubnzv/virtual-types.nvim'},
            {'simrat39/rust-tools.nvim'},
        },
        config = function() require("lsp_settings.settings") end
    }

lua/lsp_settings/settings.lua

require("rust-tools").setup()

Now create a new project cargo new rofl and enter the main.rs file and execute the command: :LspStart, then the error should pop up.

Is it possible to use rust-tools in lazy mode of lsp-config?

[simrat39]

Not really a rust-tools issue afaik, looks like something to do with your packer usage, although I won't recommend using it in lazy mode

I'm getting this error too. All I have to do to get it is,

luado require('rust-tools')

Having the same issue. Also on my side require('rust-tools').setup({}) triggers some errors.

Below my init.vim and init.lua

:set tabstop=4
:set shiftwidth=4

hm... it looks like that we have to load the lspconfig first, before rust-tools.nvim can kick in? I added the following command, which I just execute, if I need it:

command! LspRustTools lua require('rust-tools').setup({})

[mr-pascal]

@TornaxO7 thanks for your help, unfortunately it appears that this wasn't the issue 🤔

what was missing on my side:

In my init.vim this line was missing in my plugins:

Plug 'williamboman/nvim-lsp-installer'

And I had to remove the init.lua... So actually I only have the init.vim file left, but no Lua anymore 🤔 Doesn't feel right, but at least it seems to work, looking at the below screenshot showing some arbitrary Rust code in my Neovim, without the Lua config 🤔

Pretty sure init.lua is called before init.vim? so packer doesn't load rust-tools and it can't find it

command! LspRustTools lua require('rust-tools').setup({})

nope :), please don't call lspconfig's rust setup as rust-tools also does it and it might cause conflict
