How to activate evil_lualine

I am new to lualine. Wanted some help on how to activate 'evil_lualine' shown at site. While I try doing require("lualine").setup({ options = { theme = "tokyonight" } }) it gives me an error mentioning that the theme does'nt exist

evil_line config is provided as example in examples folder .

require("lualine").setup({ options = { theme = "tokyonight" } })

You need to have tokyonight colorscheme installed and need to load it before lualine .

Is there anyway to set the example in another file and import in config.lua?
Cannot find how to

As a new nvim and lualine user, I as well wonder how to activate the examples (e.g. evil_lualine).

I see, those are files in the example dir , but where do I put them?

I finally found out how to use an example file given in the repo.

1. Download or copy the example file that you want to use (and modify it if wanted).
2. Put the file in ~/.config/nvim/lua/plugins/lualine/<example_file>.lua, create those directories if you don't have them yet.
3. To your nvim config (e.g. ~/.config/nvim/init.lua) add the line require 'plugins.lualine.<example_file>' somewhere to the end or after the other lualine stuff you probably have in there.
