I have installed YouCompleteMe with Clang completer in OS X 10.10.4, and in my new OS X 10.11.4 I want to reinstall it.

The previous installation process downloaded about 140MB at very low speed. I have used the main tutorial to install with these commands (after installing the bundle with Vundle):

cd ~/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe
./install.py --clang-completer

How can I manually download the additional file and install it offline?

I did the following to install (Although I could copy the whole ~/.vim directory to the new place instead of steps 3-6):

  1. Install vim 7.4:

    brew install vim

    Note: If you are using mac operating system, make sure you create an alias in your bash_profile pointing to macvim i.e. which mvim

  2. Install Vundle

  3. Add Plugin 'Valloric/YouCompleteMe' to ~/.vimrc and run :PluginInstall in vim.

  4. Download clang+llvm-version-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.xz from Pre-Built Binaries section of LLVM Download Page manually (now it is the latest version).

  5. Make the download directory:

    mkdir -p ~/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/clang_archives

  6. Put the downloaded file in that directory.

    mv  clang+llvm-*-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.xz ~/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/clang_archives

  7. Compile YouCompleteMe:

    cd ~/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe
./install.py --clang-completer

    In this solution I used Vundle, so there is no need to run git submodule update --init --recursive because Vundle do this while running :PluginInstall

Try something like this :

Put this at the top of your .vimrc to use Vundle.

set nocompatible              " be iMproved, required
filetype off                  " required

" set the runtime path to include Vundle and initialize
set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
call vundle#begin()
" alternatively, pass a path where Vundle should install plugins
"call vundle#begin('~/some/path/here')

" let Vundle manage Vundle, required
Plugin 'VundleVim/Vundle.vim'


" All of your Plugins must be added before the following line
call vundle#end()            " required
filetype plugin indent on    " required

Run following to install: 

git clone https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe.git
cd YouCompleteMe
git submodule update --init --recursive
./install.sh --clang-completer

  • You should be able to see if YCM plugin is installed by starting vim and writing :PluginInstall

    Does this solution meet the offline requirement that is the main requirement in the question? Your post is the answer of "How to install Vundle and YouCompleteMe online?"

  • The only online part is where you fetch the thing you want to install - this could be done at an earlier stage - I do not see how you can install something you do not have - all other answers expect first line - I however have just expressed how to first get the package - you could leave it out
