Error while calling lua chunk: TOML parse error

[craigmac]

When trying to use in my rocks.toml:

[plugins.nvim-surround.config]
options = {}

I get the following stack traceback:

Error detected while processing /Users/craigmaceachern/.local/share/nvim/

I've also tried to use [plugins."nvim-surround".config] in case it was the - character, but that didn't work. Right below it I have:

[plugins.flit.confg]
options = {}

Which works. Any ideas?

🤔 that looks like it should parse fine.
Could you please post your whole rocks.toml?

Maybe you have

[plugins]
nvim-surround = "<version>"

somewhere?
If so, you should change it to

[plugins.nvim-surround]
version = "<version>"

[plugins.nvim-surround.config]
options = {}

That worked, thanks! Why does it not work the way I had it before, is it a TOML thing?

[mrcjkb]

The entry nvim-surround = "<version>" makes nvim-surround a string.

[plugins.nvim-surround]
version = "<version>"

makes it a table.

It has to be a table if you want to index it.
