My config is not loaded when using asynchronous

[CristoAMH]

I am trying to use Telescope just when it is invoked the command.

use {
      'nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim',
      cmd = 'Telescope',
      requires = {'nvim-lua/popup.nvim', 'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim'},
      config = require('config.telescope')
  }

This is the content inside config.telescope

local utils = require('utils')
local telescope = require("telescope")

telescope.setup({})

utils.map('n', '<leader>ff', "<cmd>Telescope find_files<cr>")
utils.map('n', '<leader>fg', "<cmd>Telescope live_grep<cr>")
utils.map('n', '<leader>fb', "<cmd>Telescope buffers<cr>")
utils.map('n', '<leader>fh', "<cmd>Telescope help_tags<cr>")
utils.map('n', '<leader>go', "<cmd>Telescope git_status<cr>")
utils.map('n', '<leader>gb', "<cmd>Telescope git_branches<cr>")
utils.map('n', '<leader>gc', "<cmd>Telescope git_commits<cr>")
utils.map('n', '<leader>gC', "<cmd>Telescope git_bcommits<cr>")

but it doesn't work and I have no error, any ideas?

Try

config = "require('config.telescope')"

or

config = function()
	require('config.telescope')
end

Right now you're feeding the return value of require() to the config key, which is why it doesn't work

@nanotee I have tried both options but none of them works and also I tried [[require('config.telescope')]].
If it helps I have this branch with my dotfiles. https://github.com/CristoAMH/DDots/blob/packer/.config/nvim/lua/plugins.lua#L26.

Ah, right, since you lazy-load with a command, your config doesn't get sourced until you run :Telescope.
I think adding keys = {'<Leader>'} should do the trick

[wbthomason]

@nanotee's answer is correct - the config key gets run after the plugin is loaded, which only happens when :Telescope is run in your current specification.

What I would suggest is actually to split your telescope config into two parts, one which makes the keymaps and one which calls telescope.setup. Source the first part as a setup key in your specification, and the second part as a config key. That should give you the lazy-loading and configuration you desire.

@nanotee @wbthomason you both are totally right and it have so much sense. I did split my conf and it worked like a charm.
