Re: ANN: dbext.vim version 26.00 - Database access from within Vim

It's not really too difficult. The loading path is altered to include the subdirectory, which in turn just maps the existing structure (in an isolated way). It's mostly "multiple ~/.vim directories". Your existing structure should work just fine.

I have a working example here:

https://github.com/fourjay/dbext

It's what I use to install to my various environments.

Pathogen was the first approach, and most just copied (and extended) this approach. Vundle uses it, as does Plug. I'm pretty sure that, other then a few extensions, Vim 8's also uses the same approach.

FWIW, there were a few competing approaches a while ago, but path manipulation has seen near universal adoption now.
