sops.nvim

Edit SOPS encrypted files in a Neovim floating window. Files are decrypted on open and re-encrypted on save.

Requirements

• Neovim 0.9+
• The sops binary in your $PATH
• A working encryption/decryption key (age, PGP, or cloud KMS) configured via .sops.yaml

Installation

Lazy

{
  "jmpTeixeira02/sops.nvim",
  cmd = "SopsEdit",
  keys = {
    { "<leader>se", "<cmd>SopsEdit<cr>", desc = "Edit SOPS File" },
  },
}

Usage

Run :SopsEdit to edit the current file or pass a specific path:

:SopsEdit
:SopsEdit path/to/secrets.yaml

Features inside the decrypted buffer:

• Filetype detection matching the source file extension.
• Save natively (:w) to re-encrypt and write to disk.
• Press q to quit (prompts to save if modified).
• Prompt handling on window unload/close.
