Lualine doesn't indicate when recording macro

[ibootrc]

when i start recording a macro nothing show up in lualine to let me know that i am recording.
my current config:

return {
	'nvim-lualine/lualine.nvim',
	config = function()
		local config = require("lualine")
		config.setup({
			options = {
				icons_enabled = true,
				theme = 'auto',
			}
		})

	end
}

[ibootrc]

I fixed that by doing so

   return {
	'nvim-lualine/lualine.nvim',
	config = function()
		local config = require("lualine")

		config.setup({
			options = {
				icons_enabled = true,
				theme = 'auto',
			},
			sections = {
				-- Add the macro recording status in the mode section
				lualine_a = {function()
					local reg = vim.fn.reg_recording()
					-- If a macro is being recorded, show "Recording @<register>"
					if reg ~= "" then
						return "Recording @" .. reg
					else
						-- Get the full mode name using nvim_get_mode()
						local mode = vim.api.nvim_get_mode().mode
						local mode_map = {
							n = 'NORMAL',
							i = 'INSERT',
							v = 'VISUAL',
							V = 'V-LINE',
							['^V'] = 'V-BLOCK',
							c = 'COMMAND',
							R = 'REPLACE',
							s = 'SELECT',
							S = 'S-LINE',
							['^S'] = 'S-BLOCK',
							t = 'TERMINAL',
						}

						-- Return the full mode name
						return mode_map[mode] or mode:upper()
					end
				end},
			},
		})
	end
}

I took that and made it just show the macro state in the b section:

      {
        'macro',
        fmt = function()
          local reg = vim.fn.reg_recording()
          if reg ~= "" then
            return "Recording @" .. reg
          end
          return nil
        end,
        color = { fg = "#ff9e64" },
        draw_empty = false,
      },

I guess until this #1227 gets in.

@countless-integers That's elegant

#1355 (comment) did not seem to work for me, unless i changed the V-BLOCK and S-BLOCK to match the literal ASCII characters (This might be shell or terminal related -> Alacritty with Fish shell):

...
['\22'] = 'V-BLOCK',
...
['\19'] = 'S-BLOCK',

Thanks for the fix @ibootrc 🙏
