Hydrovim not responding despite syntax on and nui dependency on LunarVim

[UmbertoFasci]

Hi! I am very excited to get this up and running on my system. I am currently utilizing LunarVim and have been having issue getting hydrovim working. I have installed both nui and hydrovim via packer and all seems well in terms of installation. Please refer to the screenshots below:
config.lua

Packer Status

Python file context

It is noted that when the command menu is up <F8> is clearly attached to HydrovimRun('normal').

No error is returned upon utilizing this command, so I suspect this is an issue with the syntax on issue others have been having. How should we properly turn syntax on if what we are doing is wrong?

In a .vim file syntax on works. Hopefully we can figure out how to translate that in a .lua config

Hi.

I don't use lua for configuration neovim and I don't have any perception how you can correctly translate it to lua. I will appreciate it if somebody can solve this issue for people using lua for their configurations.

For clearing, I use Lua in my neovim configuration definitely, but my mean about using Lua was .lua file type which I don't.
