Invalid window id when trying to open nvimtree on same file multiple times or sometimes on the first time.

[devins2518]

Issue can be seen here. This sometimes happens right after I open a file, or it works for a few times and then does this. Not sure what's causing this since my config doesn't seem to be too different from some of the premade ones. The part of my config:

local g = vim.g

g["nvim_tree_add_trailing"] = 1
g["nvim_tree_allow_resize"] = 1
g["nvim_tree_auto_close"] = 0
g["nvim_tree_auto_open"] = 0
g["nvim_tree_disable_default_keybindings"] = 1
g["nvim_tree_follow"] = 1
g["nvim_tree_git_hl"] = 1
g["nvim_tree_group_empty"] = 1
g["nvim_tree_hide_dotfiles"] = 1
g["nvim_tree_ignore"] = {
    ".git", "target", "node_modules", ".cache", "Cargo.lock"
}
g["nvim_tree_indent_markers"] = 1
g["nvim_tree_quit_on_open"] = 1
g["nvim_tree_root_folder_modifier"] = ":~"
g["nvim_tree_show_icons"] = {git = 1, folders = 1, files = 1}
g["nvim_tree_side"] = "left"
g["nvim_tree_tab_open"] = 1
g["nvim_tree_update_cwd"] = 1
g["nvim_tree_width"] = 25
g["nvim_tree_width_allow_resize"] = 1
g["nvim_tree_icons"] = {
    default = " ",
    symlink = " ",
    git = {
        unstaged = '✗',
        staged = "✓",
        unmerged = "",
        renamed = "➜",
        untracked = "★"
    },
    folder = {
        default = '',
        open = '',
        empty = '',
        empty_open = '',
        symlink = '',
        symlink_open = ''
    }
}

-- Mappings for nvimtree
local tree_cb = require'nvim-tree.config'.nvim_tree_callback

g["nvim_tree_bindings"] = {
    {key = {"<CR>", "o", "<2-LeftMouse>"}, cb = tree_cb("edit")},
    {key = {"<2-RightMouse>", "c"}, cb = tree_cb("cd")},
    {key = "vs", cb = tree_cb("vsplit")}, {key = "sp", cb = tree_cb("split")},

    {key = {"<BS>", "<S-CR>"}, cb = tree_cb("close_node")},
    {key = "<Tab>", cb = tree_cb("preview")},
    {key = "I", cb = tree_cb("toggle_ignored")},
    {key = "H", cb = tree_cb("toggle_dotfiles")},
    {key = "R", cb = tree_cb("refresh")}, {key = "n", cb = tree_cb("create")},
    {key = "d", cb = tree_cb("remove")}, {key = "rn", cb = tree_cb("rename")},
    {key = "<C-r>", cb = tree_cb("full_rename")},
    {key = "x", cb = tree_cb("cut")}, {key = "y", cb = tree_cb("copy")},
    {key = "p", cb = tree_cb("paste")},
    {key = "[c", cb = tree_cb("prev_git_item")},
    {key = "]c", cb = tree_cb("next_git_item")},
    {key = "-", cb = tree_cb("dir_up")}
}

local function map(mode, lhs, rhs, opts)
    local options = {noremap = true, silent = true}
    if opts then options = vim.tbl_extend("force", options, opts) end
    vim.api.nvim_set_keymap(mode, lhs, rhs, options)
end

local opt = {}

map("n", "<C-n>", ":NvimTreeToggle<CR>", opt)

Seems to be related to lazyloading. Many of the issues I've been having with this plugin disappear when disabling lazy loading.

i think it's related to lazyloading indeed but i'm working on fixing the setup to enable this feature :)
