Opening nvim-tree without stealing focus on nvim start

[nydragon]

Hey, I am trying to get nvim-tree to open on start without stealing focus. I have the following function:

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({ "BufReadPost" }, {
    callback = function()
        if not api.tree.is_visible() then
            api.tree.toggle({
                focus = false,
            })
        end
    end,
})

It steals the focus on opening the tree. However, running the following command manually works:

:lua require("nvim-tree.api").tree.toggle({ focus = false })

Does anyone have an idea what could be the issue or have a solution/alternative? That would be greatly appreciated!

end,
opts = {

		highlight_modified = "name",
	},
	modified = {
		enable = true,
	},
	diagnostics = {
		enable = true,
	},
	update_focused_file = { enable = true },
	filters = {
		dotfiles = false,
		git_ignored = false,
	},
},
},

Sorry, lazy's startup ordering is only somewhat deterministic: wiki: Lazy Loading

I suggest you take a look at wiki: Open At Startup for robust solutions.
