Invalid character group name

[devloos]

Hello Team,

I am getting an error when trying to use the plugin, I am a novice at nvim but I isolated the problem as much as possible this is what's in my config.

vim.o.background = 'dark'
require('vscode').setup{}

this was stripped from the documentation

I am using packer to install the plugin
this is the error message

The odd part is I am getting the theme to work but I continue to get this error every time I open nvim

I'm experiencing the same issue. I have confirmed it is caused by this commit:

ec639c1

I've also confirmed that the new highlight groups work with NeoVim 0.8. I was running 0.7 previously.

[devloos]

I see I am using 0.7 as well

It also fixed the issue when upgrading to 0.8

I see this error with 0.7.2 using this colorscheme.

Upgrading Neovim to v0.8 fixed this issue.

Hmm... I'm on NeoVim v0.8 but still getting this, any thought on what it might be?

[lazywei]

Upgrading to NVIM 0.9 solves this lol ..

I see this error with 0.7.2 using this colorscheme.

For anyone else like me that is stuck on the 0.7.x version til the neovim-ppa package maintainers make 0.8+ part of the stable release, just lock in the last version of the vsode.nvim plugin that worked.

If you're using packer plugin manager like me, then replace:

use { 'Mofiqul/vscode.nvim' }

With:

use { 'Mofiqul/vscode.nvim', commit = "c5125820a0915ef50f03fae10423c43dc49c66b1" }

Other plugin managers will have a similar mechanism to pin a specific commit for a plugin.
