How to setup snacks explorer and picker

[guilherme-takata]

I'm trying to move from neotree to snacks explorer, but the width of the explorere side bar is way too big, I've tried to set it to a lower value in nix vim, but the changes aren't taking effect, can anyone help me? Here's my current config:

{ pkgs, ... }:
{
  plugins.snacks = {
    enable = true;
    autoLoad = true;
    settings = {
      explorer = {
        enabled = true;
        replace_netrw = true;
      };
      animate.enabled = true;
      picker = {
        sources = {
          explorer = {
            layout = {
              preset = "sidebar";
              preview = false;
              width = 10;
              min_width = 5;
            };
          };
        };
      };
    };
  };
  keymaps = [
    {
      key = "<leader>e";
      mode = [ "n" ];
      action = "<cmd>lua Snacks.explorer()<CR>";
      options = {
        silent = true;
        noremap = true;
      };
    }
    {
      key = "<leader>fb";
      mode = [ "n" ];
      action = "<cmd>lua Snacks.picker.buffers()<CR>";
      options = {
        silent = true;
        noremap = true;
      };
    }
    {
      key = "<leader>ff";
      mode = [ "n" ];
      action = "<cmd>lua Snacks.picker.files()<CR>";
      options = {
        silent = true;
        noremap = true;
      };
    }
    {
      key = "<leader>gl";
      mode = [ "n" ];
      action = "<cmd>lua Snacks.picker.git_log()<CR>";
      options = {
        silent = true;
        noremap = true;
      };
    }
    {
      key = "<leader>gs";
      mode = [ "n" ];
      action = "<cmd>lua Snacks.picker.git_status()<CR>";
      options = {
        silent = true;
        noremap = true;
      };
    }
    {
      key = "<leader>uC";
      mode = [ "n" ];
      action = "<cmd>lua Snacks.picker.colorschemes()<CR>";
    }
    {
      key = "<leader>:";
      mode = [ "n" ];
      action = "<cmd>lua Snacks.picker.command_history()<CR>";
    }
  ];
}

I've already tried moving the width option to layout.layout.width but that didn't work as well, looking at the plugin documentation this should work. As a side note, adding this plugin I now get a message everytime I open up neovim with the following message

vim.lsp.get_active_clients() is deprecated

I have had the same experience when trying to add snacks.dashboard, to my understanding when reading the source code I think the maintainer only has a small set of snacks plugin available, but most of them aren't declared, meaning we cannot use it. I have been trying to add snacks dashboard and been unsuccessfull and what's worse is that I do not get any error or warning, which is weird. But I couldn't tell for sure

@HeitorAugustoLN maybe you could help us clarify ? Thanks in advance

Actually, you can use it, you are able to set freeform options in settings

[HeitorAugustoLN]

Can you guys make sure that these settings are successfully written in nixvim-print-init?

Thank you for your prompt reply! And yes, it is true, I still have issues using snacks.dashboard but I tried loading other snacks plugins like snacks.lazygit and it worked, so I assume the other plugins work as well, it's probably something related to misconfiguring my dotfiles bc snacks.dashboard is not working for me at the moment.
