How can I use netrw in SpaceVim?

Question

I tried nvim ftp://[address]//path/to/code.txt but that not work for SpaceVim, it opened an empty file while it was not empty on my remote machine.

Answer 1

Edit the file autoload/SpaceVim/layers/core.vim.

Search for the line: let g:loaded_netrwPlugin = 1 and comment it out.

This works and mostly doesn't break stuff for me, but YMMV.

Answer 2

netrw disabled by default in core layer. Add to file ~/.SpaceVim.d/init.toml:

[[layers]]
name = 'core'
enable_netrw = true
