Powerline fonts not working on Airline

Question

So, I installed the Airline plugin which is working quite nicely. But, I'd like it a bit sweeter. So I went to Powerline.

I installed patched fonts from https://github.com/powerline/fonts/tree/master/Hack and modified my .vimrc like so

But, as you can see, it doesn't seem to work correctly...

Is it a font issue or is it something else?

Answer 1

See this post. Specifically, paste this into your .vimrc.

" air-line
let g:airline_powerline_fonts = 1


if !exists('g:airline_symbols')
    let g:airline_symbols = {}
endif

" unicode symbols
let g:airline_left_sep = '»'
let g:airline_left_sep = '▶'
let g:airline_right_sep = '«'
let g:airline_right_sep = '◀'
let g:airline_symbols.linenr = '␊'
let g:airline_symbols.linenr = '␤'
let g:airline_symbols.linenr = '¶'
let g:airline_symbols.branch = '⎇'
let g:airline_symbols.paste = 'ρ'
let g:airline_symbols.paste = 'Þ'
let g:airline_symbols.paste = '∥'
let g:airline_symbols.whitespace = 'Ξ'

" airline symbols
let g:airline_left_sep = ''
let g:airline_left_alt_sep = ''
let g:airline_right_sep = ''
let g:airline_right_alt_sep = ''
let g:airline_symbols.branch = ''
let g:airline_symbols.readonly = ''
let g:airline_symbols.linenr = ''
