line_mapping and operator_mapping with the same key mapping

[cseelus]

I tried to assign the same mapping to line_mapping and operator_mapping, like with vim-commentary, but unfortunately this doesn't work:

require('nvim_comment').setup({
    -- Should key mappings be created
    create_mappings = true,
    -- Normal mode mapping left hand side
    line_mapping = '<leader>c',
    -- Visual/Operator mapping left hand side
    operator_mapping = '<leader>c'
})

Am I missing something or is this (currently) not possible with nvim-comment out of the box?

I encountered the same issue. A workaround:

vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<leader>c', ':CommentToggle<CR>', {noremap = true, silent = true})
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('v', '<leader>c', ":'<,'>CommentToggle<CR>", {noremap = true, silent = true})

Closing as this is not supported, the line_mapping being a shortcut for the operator_mapping against a line.
