Configuration *lsp-configuration* + *LspAddServer()* *g:LspAddServer()* + +To use the plugin features with a particular file type(s), you need to first +register a language server for that file type(s). + +To register one or more language servers, use the LspAddServer() function with +a list of lanaguge server details in the .vimrc file. + +To register a language server, add the following lines to your .vimrc file +(use only the language servers that you need from the below list). +If you used [vim-plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug) to install the +LSP plugin, the steps are described later in this section: > + + vim9script + var lspServers = [ + { + name: 'typescriptls', + filetype: ['javascript', 'typescript'], + path: '/usr/local/bin/typescript-language-server', + args: ['--stdio'] + }, + { + name: 'pythonls', + filetype: 'python', + path: '/usr/local/bin/pyls', + args: ['--check-parent-process', '-v'] + } + ] + LspAddServer(lspServers) +< +Depending on the location of the typescript and python pyls language servers +installed in your system, update the "path" in the above snippet +appropriately. + +Another example, for adding the language servers for the C, C++, Golang, Rust, +Shell script, Vim script and PHP file types: > + + vim9script + var lspServers = [ + { + name: 'clangd', + filetype: ['c', 'cpp'], + path: '/usr/local/bin/clangd', + args: ['--background-index'] + }, + { + name: 'golang', + filetype: ['go', 'gomod', 'gohtmltmpl', 'gotexttmpl'], + path: '/path/to/.go/bin/gopls', + args: [], + syncInit: true, + }, + { + name: 'rustls', + filetype: ['rust'], + path: '/path/to/.cargo/bin/rust-analyzer', + args: [], + syncInit: true, + }, + { + name: 'bashls', + filetype: 'sh', + path: '/usr/local/bin/bash-language-server', + args: ['start'] + }, + { + name: 'vimls', + filetype: ['vim'], + path: '/usr/local/bin/vim-language-server', + args: ['--stdio'] + }, + { + name: 'phpls', + filetype: ['php'], + path': '/usr/local/bin/intelephense', + args: ['--stdio'], + syncInit: true, + initializationOptions: { + licenceKey: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' + } + } + ] + LspAddServer(lspServers) +< +To add a language server, the following information is needed: + + *lsp-cfg-name* + name (Optional) name of the language server. Can by any + string. Used in LSP messages and log files. + *lsp-cfg-path* + path complete path to the language server executable + (without any arguments). + *lsp-cfg-args* + args a |List| of command-line arguments passed to the + language server. Each space separated language server + command-line argument is a separate List item. + *lsp-cfg-filetype* + filetype One or more file types supported by the language + server. This can be a |String| or a |List|. To + specify multiple file types, use a List. + *lsp-cfg-initializationOptions* + initializationOptions + (Optional) for lsp servers (e.g. intelephense) some + additional initialization options may be required + or useful for initialization. Those can be provided in + this dictionary and if present will be transmitted to + the lsp server. + *lsp-cfg-workspaceConfig* + workspaceConfig (Optional) a json encodable value that will be sent to + the language server after initialization as the + "settings" in a "workspace/didChangeConfiguration" + notification. Refer to the language server + documentation for the values that will be accepted in + this notification. This configuration is also used to + respond to the "workspace/configuration" request + message from the language server. + *lsp-cfg-rootSearch* + rootSearch (Optional) a List of file and directory names used to + locate the root path or uri of the workspace. The + directory names in "rootSearch" must end in "/" or + "\". Each file and directory name in "rootSearch" is + searched upwards in all the parent directories. If + multiple directories are found, then the directory + closest to the directory of the current buffer is used + as the workspace root. + + If this parameter is not specified or the files are + not found, then the current working directory is used + as the workspace root for decendent files, for any + other files the parent directory of the file is used. + + *lsp-cfg-runIfSearch* + runIfSearch (Optional) a List of file and directory names used to + determinate if a server should run or not. The + directory names in "runIfSearch" must end in "/" or + "\". Each file and directory name in "runIfSearch" is + searched upwards in all the parent directories. + Exactly like |lsp-cfg-rootSearch|. + + If a file or directory is found then the server will + be started, otherwise it will not. + + If this parameter is not specified or is an empty + list, then the server will be started unless + |lsp-cfg-runUnlessSearch| prevents it. + + *lsp-cfg-runUnlessSearch* + runUnlessSearch (Optional) Opposite of |lsp-cfg-runIfSearch|. + +Additionally the following configurations can be made: + + *lsp-cfg-customNotificationHandlers* + customNotificationHandlers + (Optional) some lsp servers (e.g. + typescript-language-server) will send additional + notifications which you might want to silence or + handle. The provided notification handlers will be + called with a reference to the "lspserver" and the + "reply". > + + vim9script + g:LspAddServer([{ + filetype: ['javascript', 'typescript'], + path: '/usr/local/bin/typescript-language-server', + args: ['--stdio'], + customNotificationHandlers: { + '$/typescriptVersion': (lspserver, reply) => { + echom printf("TypeScript Version = %s", + reply.params.version) + } + } + }]) +< + *lsp-cfg-customRequestHandlers* + customRequestHandlers + (Optional) some lsp servers will send additional + request replies which you might want to silence or + handle. The provided request handlers will be called + with a reference to the "lspserver" and the "request". + + features *lsp-cfg-features* + (Optional) toggle which features should be enabled for + a given language server. See |lsp-multiple-servers| + and |lsp-features| for more information. + + forceOffsetEncoding *lsp-cfg-forceOffsetEncoding* + (Optional) a |String| value that forces the use of a + specific offset encoding in LSP messages. If this + option is not specified, then the UTF offset encoding + is negotiated with the server during initialization. + Supported values are 'utf-8' or 'utf-16' or 'utf-32'. + The Vim native offset encoding is 'utf-32'. For the + 'utf-8' and 'utf-16' encodings, the offsets need to be + encoded and decoded in every LSP message and will + incur some overhead. + + *lsp-cfg-omnicompl* + omnicompl (Optional) a boolean value that enables (true) + or disables (false) omni-completion for these file + types. By default this is set to "v:true". This value + is applicable only if auto completion is disabled + (|lsp-opt-autoComplete|). + + *lsp-cfg-processDiagHandler* + processDiagHandler + (Optional) A |Funcref| or |lambda| that takes a list + of language server diagnostics and returns a new list + of filtered, or otherwise changed diagnostics. Can be + used to remove unwanted diagnostics, prefix the + diagnostics text, etc. The following example will + remove all but errors and warnings: > + + vim9script + g:LspAddServer([{ + filetype: ['javascript', 'typescript'], + path: '/usr/local/bin/typescript-language-server', + args: ['--stdio'], + processDiagHandler: (diags: list<dict<any>>) => { + # Only include errors and warnings + return diags->filter((diag, ix) => { + return diag.severity <= 2 + }) + }, + }]) +< + And this example will prefix the diagnostic message + with the string "TypeScript: ": > + + vim9script + g:LspAddServer([{ + filetype: ['javascript', 'typescript'], + path: '/usr/local/bin/typescript-language-server', + args: ['--stdio'], + processDiagHandler: (diags: list<dict<any>>) => { + return diags->map((diag, ix) => { + diag.message = $'TypeScript: {diag.message}' + return diag + }) + }, + }]) +< + *lsp-cfg-syncInit* + syncInit (Optional) for language servers (e.g. rust analyzer, + gopls, etc.) that take time to initialize and reply to + a "initialize" request message this should be set to + "true". If this is set to true, then a synchronous + call is used to initialize the language server, + otherwise the server is initialized asynchronously. + By default this is set to "false". + + *lsp-cfg-debug* + debug (Optional) log the messages printed by this language + server in stdout and stderr to a file. Useful for + debugging a language server. By default the + messages are not logged. See |lsp-debug| for more + information. + + *lsp-cfg-traceLevel* + traceLevel (Optional) set the debug trace level for this language + server. Supported values are: "off", "debug" and + "verbose". By default this is seto "off". + +The language servers are added using the LspAddServer() function. This +function accepts a list of language servers with the above information. + +If you used [vim-plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug) to install the +LSP plugin, then you need to use the LspSetup User autocmd to initialize the +language server and to set the language server options. For example: > + + vim9script + + var lspOpts = {autoHighlightDiags: true} + autocmd User LspSetup LspOptionsSet(lspOpts) + + var lspServers = [ + { + name: 'clangd', + filetype: ['c', 'cpp'], + path: '/usr/local/bin/clangd', + args: ['--background-index'] + } + ] + autocmd User LspSetup LspAddServer(lspServers) +< + *lsp-options* *LspOptionsSet()* + *g:LspOptionsSet()* + +Some of the LSP plugin features can be enabled or disabled by using the +LspOptionsSet() function. This function accepts a dictionary argument with the +following optional items: + + *lsp-opt-aleSupport* +aleSupport |Boolean| option.

Insert Mode Completion *lsp-ins-mode-completion* + +By default, when you are in insert mode, the LSP plugin will automatically +display suggestions for the symbol under the cursor in an insert-completion +popup menu. The keys specified in |popupmenu-keys| can be used to interact +with this menu. + +To disable this auto-completion feature for all files, you can set the +"autoComplete" option to false in your .vimrc file using the |LspOptionsSet()| +function: > + + call LspOptionsSet({'autoComplete': false}) +< +By setting the "autoComplete" option to |v:false|, the LSP plugin will no +longer automatically trigger completion suggestions in insert mode. Instead, +it will use omni-completion (|compl-omni|) and set the 'omnifunc' option for +buffers that have a registered language server. To manually trigger symbol +completion in insert mode, you can press CTRL-X CTRL-O. This key combination +will invoke completion using the suggestions provided by the language server. + +To enable omni-completion for all the buffers, set the "omniComplete" option +to v:true. To explicitly disable omni-completion for all the buffers, set the +"omniComplete" option to v:false (default). + +In addition to the general auto-completion behavior discussed above, you +have the option to enable or disable omni-completion for a specific language +server when registering it for a particular filetype. + +To do this, you can set the 'omnicompl' item to |v:false| in the configuration +when registering the language server for the desired filetype. If the +'omnicompl' item is not specified, omni-completion is enabled by default. + +Here's an example of how to disable omni-completion for Python: > + + vim9script + var lspServers = [ + { + filetype: 'python', + omnicompl: false, + path: '/usr/local/bin/pyls', + args: ['--check-parent-process', '-v'] + } + ] +< +In this example, the language server for Python is registered using the +|LspAddServer()| function, and the 'omnicompl' item is explicitly set to +|v:false|. As a result, omni-completion will be disabled for Python files +associated with this language server. + +Please note that if 'omnicompl' is not included in the configuration +when registering the language server, omni-completion will be enabled by +default. + +In insert-mode completion, the plugin sends a completion request message to +the language server and obtains a list of potential completion matches based +on the current cursor position. To achieve this, the plugin retrieves the +keyword immediately preceding the cursor (refer to 'iskeyword' setting) and +then filters the list of completion items received from the language server +based on this keyword. The resulting filtered list is displayed as the +completion menu. + +It's worth noting that different language servers handle completion filtering +in distinct ways. Some servers perform the filtering directly on the +server-side, while others delegate this task to the client-side, which is the +plugin in this context. + +By default, the plugin uses a case-sensitive comparison method to filter the +returned completion items. However, you have the flexibility to customize this +behavior by modifying the "completionMatcher" option. This option allows you +to switch between case-insensitive or fuzzy comparison methods as per your +preference and requirements for completion matching. + +In addition to automatic completion and omni completion, there is a +possibility to utilize external completion engines with the LSP client. This +can be achieved by repurposing the |g:LspOmniFunc| function. The external +completion engine adapter needs to invoke this function twice, following the +approach outlined in the |complete-functions| documentation. + +The process works as follows: + +1. First Invocation: The external completion engine adapter calls + |g:LspOmniFunc| to initiate a request to the LSP server for completion + candidates. +2. After the first invocation, a request is sent to the LSP server to find + completion candidates. +3. Second Invocation: The external completion engine adapter calls + |g:LspOmniFunc| again to retrieve the matches returned by the LSP server. +4. If the LSP server is not ready to reply immediately, |g:LspOmniFunc| waits + for up to 2 seconds. +5. However, this wait could block the caller from performing other tasks, + which might be a concern for asynchronous completion engines. +6. To address this issue, the adapter can use the |g:LspOmniCompletePending| + function, which allows for a non-blocking check. It returns true + immediately if the language server is not ready to respond yet. +7. To proceed with the second invocation of g:LspOmniFunc, it is crucial to + ensure that |g:LspOmniCompletePending| returns false, indicating that the + language server is now ready to provide the completion matches. + +============================================================================== +7. Diagnostics *lsp-diagnostics* + +The LSP plugin offers a feature to highlight syntax errors, warnings, and +static analysis warnings in a source file by placing signs in the sign column. +These signs serve as visual indicators of the diagnostics reported by the +language server. + +To interact with these diagnostics, you can use various commands provided by +the LSP plugin: + +1. ":LspDiag show": This command displays all the diagnostic messages for the + current file in a location-list window. The location-list window allows + you to view a list of all the diagnostic messages, along with their + corresponding line numbers and descriptions. +2. ":LspDiag first": Use this command to jump directly to the line containing + the first diagnostic message. It helps you quickly navigate to the + location of the initial issue detected by the language server. +3. ":LspDiag next": With this command, you can navigate to the next nearest + line with a diagnostic message. It helps you step through the list of + diagnostics one by one. +4. ":LspDiag prev": Conversely, this command allows you to jump to the + previous nearest line with a diagnostic message. It is useful for + reviewing diagnostics in reverse order. +5. ":LspDiag here": If you want to focus solely on the diagnostic message for + the current line, you can use this command to jump directly to it. +6. ":LspDiag current": This command displays the entire diagnostic message + from the language server for the current line. It provides detailed + information about the specific issue and its description. + +By using these commands, you can efficiently navigate and inspect the +diagnostics reported by the language server, making it easier to identify and +address syntax errors, warnings, or static analysis issues in your code. + +By default, the LSP plugin marks lines with diagnostic messages by placing a +sign on them and highlighting the range of text associated with the +diagnostic. However, you have the option to customize this behavior by +adjusting certain configuration settings: + +1. Disabling Automatic Sign Placement: If you wish to prevent the automatic + placement of signs on lines with diagnostic messages, you can achieve this + by setting the "showDiagWithSign" option to |v:false|. By default, this + option is set to |v:true|, meaning that signs are automatically placed on + lines with diagnostics. +2. Disabling Diagnostic Text Highlighting: If you prefer not to have the + diagnostic text highlighted, you can do so by setting the + "highlightDiagInline" option to |v:false|. By default, this option is set + to |v:true|, resulting in the highlighting of the text range associated + with each diagnostic. +3. Highlight Group for Line with Diagnostics: The LSP plugin uses the + "LspDiagLine" highlight group to highlight lines containing diagnostics. + By default, this highlight group is not set, allowing you to define your + own highlighting style for lines with diagnostics if desired. + +In addition to the default display of the diagnostic messages with signs and +text highlighting, the LSP plugin offers the option to present the diagnostic +message as virtual text, located near the relevant location of the +diagnostics. To enable this feature, you can set the +"showDiagWithVirtualText" option to |v:true|. However, please note that this +functionality requires Vim version 9.0.1157 or later. By default, this option +is set to |v:false|, meaning that virtual text display is not activated. + +The position of the virtual text can be controlled using the +"diagVirtualTextAlign" option, which determines its alignment relative to the +affected line. By default, this option is set to 'above', which places the +virtual text above the line with the diagnostic message. The other supported +values for "diagVirtualTextAlign" are 'below', which positions the virtual +text below the affected line, and 'after', which displays the virtual text +immediately after the text on the affected line. + +The wrapping of the virtual text can be controlled using the +"diagVirtualTextWrap" option. By default, this option is set to 'default', +which will 'truncate' virtual text placed 'above' or 'below' the affected +line, and 'wrap' text placed 'after' the affected line. Setting the value to +'wrap' or 'truncate' will force the specified behavior for the current +value of "diagVirtualTextAlign". If 'truncate' is used while +"diagVirtualTextAlign" is set to 'after', and a diagnostic message has already +been truncated for the affected line, then further diagnostics will be placed +below the affected line. + +The LSP plugin offers convenient ways to highlight diagnostic messages, making +it easier to spot errors, warnings, hints, or informational notices within +your code. By default, the plugin automatically highlights the range of text +associated with each diagnostic message when the "highlightDiagInline" option +is set to |v:true.| + +The highlighting is done using different highlight groups based on the type of +diagnostic message: + + "LspDiagInlineError" for error messages. + "LspDiagInlineHint" for hints. + "LspDiagInlineInfo" for informational messages. + "LspDiagInlineWarning" for warning messages. + +If you wish to temporarily disable the automatic diagnostic highlighting for +the current Vim session, you can achieve this using the ":LspDiag highlight +disable" command. When you want to re-enable the highlighting, you can use +the ":LspDiag highlight enable" command. + +To permanently disable the automatic highlighting of diagnostics, you can set +the "autoHighlightDiags" option to |v:false| in your .vimrc file. This +configuration can be achieved using the |LspOptionsSet()| function: > + + call LspOptionsSet({'autoHighlightDiags': v:false}) +< +By default, the "autoHighlightDiags" option is set to |v:true|, ensuring that +diagnostic messages are automatically highlighted during your coding sessions. + +The lsp#lsp#ErrorCount() function returns the count of diagnostic messages in +the current buffer, categorized by their types. When called, this function +returns a Dictionary containing four keys: "Info," "Hint," "Warn," and +"Error." Each key corresponds to a specific diagnostic type, and its +associated value is the number of diagnostic messages of that particular type +found in the buffer. With the information gathered using this function, you +can easily display the number of diagnostics in the current buffer in your +'statusline'. + +For some diagnostic errors/warnings, the language server may provide an +automatic fix. To apply this fix, you can use the |:LspCodeAction| command. +This command applies the action provided by the language server (if any) for +the current line. + +The ":LspDiag show" command creates a new location list with the current list +of diagnostics for the current buffer. To automatically refresh the location +list with the latest diagnostics received from the language server, you can +set the "autoPopulateDiags" option to |v:true|. By default this option is set +to |v:false|. When new diagnostics are received for a buffer, if a location +list with the diagnostics is already present, then it is refreshed with the +new diagnostics. + +In GUI Vim or terminal Vim with the 'balloonevalterm' option enabled, a +helpful feature allows you to view diagnostic messages in a popup balloon when +you hover the mouse over the affected range of text. This provides a +convenient way to quickly access diagnostic information without the need to +execute additional commands or navigate through the location list. + +By default, the LSP plugin is configured to display diagnostic messages in the +popup balloon, enhancing the user experience and providing visual feedback as +you interact with your code. This default behavior is governed by the +"showDiagInBalloon" option, which is set to |v:true| by default. + +However, if you prefer not to see the diagnostic messages in the popup +balloons and prefer to rely solely on other methods, you have the flexibility +to customize this behavior. By setting the "showDiagInBalloon" option to +|v:false|, you can disable the display of diagnostic messages in the popup +balloons. This can be useful if you find the balloons intrusive or if you +prefer to view diagnostics through other means, such as the location list or +the status line. + +To display the diagnostic message for the current line in the status area, you +can set the "showDiagOnStatusLine" option to |v:true|. By default, this +option is set to |v:false|. + +By default, the ":LspDiag current" command displays the diagnostic message for +the current line in a popup window. To display the message in the status +message area instead, you can set the 'showDiagInPopup' option to |v:false|. +By default this is set to |v:true|. + +The lsp#diag#GetDiagsForBuf() function can be used to get all the LSP +diagnostics in a buffer. This function optionally accepts a buffer number. +If the buffer number argument is not specified, then the current buffer is +used. This function returns a |List| of diagnostics sorted by their line and +column number. Each diagnostic is a |Dict| returned by the language server. + +============================================================================== +8. Tag Function *lsp-tagfunc* + +The |:LspGotoDefinition| command can be used jump to the location where a +symbol is defined. To jump to the symbol definition using the Vim +|tag-commands|, you can set the 'tagfunc' option to the 'lsp#lsp#TagFunc' +function: > + + setlocal tagfunc=lsp#lsp#TagFunc +< +After setting the above option, you can use |Ctrl-]| and other tag related +commands to jump to the symbol definition. + +Note that most of the language servers return only one symbol location even if +the symbol is defined in multiple places in the code. + +============================================================================== +9. Code Formatting *lsp-format* + +The |:LspFormat| command can be used to format either the entire file or a +selected range of lines using the language server. The 'shiftwidth' and +'expandtab' values set for the current buffer are used when format is applied. + +To format code using the 'gq' command, you can set the 'formatexpr' option: > + + setlocal formatexpr=lsp#lsp#FormatExpr() +< +============================================================================== +10. Call Hierarchy *lsp-call-hierarchy* + +The |:LspIncomingCalls| and the |:LspOutoingCalls| commands can be used to +display the call hierarchy of a symbol. For example, the functions calling a +function or the functions called by a function. These two commands open a +window containing the call hierarchy tree. You can use the Vim motion +commands to browse the call hierarchy. + +In the call hierarchy tree window, the following keys are supported: + +<Enter> Jump to the location of the symbol under the + cursor. +- Expand and show the symbols calling or called + by the symbol under the cursor. ++ Close the call hierarchy for the symbol under + the cursor. + +You can display either the incoming call hierarchy or the outgoing call +hierarchy in this window. You cannot display both at the same time. + +In the call hierarchy tree window, the following commands are supported: + + *:LspCallHierarchyRefresh* +:LspCallHierarchyRefresh Query the language server again for the top + level symbol and refresh the call hierarchy + tree. + *:LspCallHierarchyIncoming* +:LspCallHierarchyIncoming Display the incoming call hierarchy for the + top level symbol. If the window is currently + displaying the outgoing calls, then it is + refreshed to display the incoming calls. + *:LspCallHierarchyOutgoing* +:LspCallHierarchyOutgoing Display the outgoing call hierarchy for the + top level symbol. If the window is currently + displaying the incoming calls, then it is + refreshed to display the outgoing calls. + +============================================================================== +11. Autocommands *lsp-autocmds* + + *LspSetup* +LspSetup A |User| autocommand fired when the LSP plugin + is loaded. Can be used to add language + servers using the |LspAddServer()| function + and to set plugin options using the + |LspOptionsSet()| function. + + *LspAttached* +LspAttached A |User| autocommand fired when the LSP client + attaches to a buffer. Can be used to configure + buffer-local mappings or options. + + *LspDiagsUpdated* +LspDiagsUpdated A |User| autocommand invoked when new + diagnostics are received from the language + server. This is invoked after the LSP client + has processed the diagnostics. The function + lsp#diag#GetDiagsForBuf() can be used to get + all the diagnostics for a buffer. + +============================================================================== +12. Highlight Groups *lsp-highlight-groups* + +The following highlight groups are used by the LSP plugin. You can define +these highlight groups in your .vimrc file before sourcing this plugin to +override them. + +*LspDiagInlineError* Used to highlight inline error diagnostics. + By default, linked to the "SpellBad" highlight + group. +*LspDiagInlineHint* Used to highlight inline hint diagnostics. + By default, linked to the "SpellLocal" + highlight group. +*LspDiagInlineInfo* Used to highlight inline info diagnostics. + By default, linked to the "SpellRare" + highlight group. +*LspDiagInlineWarning* Used to highlight inline warning diagnostics. + By default, linked to the "SpellCap" highlight + group. +*LspDiagLine* Used to highlight a line with one or more + diagnostics. By default linked to "NONE" + (cleared). You can link this to a highlight + group to highlight the line. +*LspDiagSignErrorText* Used to highlight the sign text for error + diags. By default linked to 'ErrorMsg'. +*LspDiagSignHintText* Used to highlight the sign text for hint + diags. By default linked to 'Question'. +*LspDiagSignInfoText* Used to highlight the sign text for info + diags. By default linked to 'Pmenu'. +*LspDiagSignWarningText* Used to highlight the sign text for warning + diags. By default linked to 'Search'. +*LspDiagVirtualText* Used to highlight diagnostic virtual text. + By default, linked to the "LineNr" highlight + group. +*LspDiagVirtualTextError* Used to highlight virtual text for error diags. + By default, linked to the "SpellBad" highlight + group. +*LspDiagVirtualTextHint* Used to highlight virtual text for hint + diags. By default, linked to the "SpellLocal" + highlight group. +*LspDiagVirtualTextInfo* Used to highlight virtual text for info + diags. By default, linked to the "SpellRare" + highlight group. +*LspDiagVirtualTextWarning* Used to highlight virtual text for warning + diags. By default, linked to the "SpellCap" + highlight group. +*LspInlayHintsParam* Used to highlight inlay hints of kind + "parameter". By default, linked to the + "Label" highlight group. +*LspInlayHintsType* Used to highlight inlay hints of kind "type". + By default, linked to the "Conceal" highlight + group. +*LspSigActiveParameter* Used to highlight the active signature + parameter. By default, linked to the "LineNr" + highlight group. +*LspSymbolName* Used to highlight the symbol name when using + the |:LspDocumentSymbol| command. By default, + linked to the "Search" highlight group. +*LspSymbolRange* Used to highlight the range of lines + containing a symbol when using the + |:LspDocumentSymbol| command. By default, + linked to the "Visual" highlight group. + +For example, to override the highlight used for diagnostics virtual text, you +can use the following: > + + highlight LspDiagVirtualText ctermfg=Cyan guifg=Blue +< +or > + + highlight link LspDiagLine DiffAdd + highlight link LspDiagVirtualText WarningMsg +< +============================================================================== +13. Debugging *lsp-debug* + +To debug this plugin, you can log the language server protocol messages sent +and received by the plugin from the language server. The following command +enables the logging of the messages from the language server for the current +buffer: > + + :LspServer debug on +< +This command also clears the log files. The following command disables the +logging of the messages from the language server for the current buffer: > + + :LspServer debug off +< +By default, the messages are not logged. Another method to enable the debug +is to set the "debug" field to true when adding a language server +using |LspAddServer()|. + +The messages printed by the language server in the stdout are logged to the +lsp-<server-name>.log file and the messages printed in the stderr are logged +to the lsp-<server-name>.err file. On a Unix-like system, these files are +created in the /tmp directory. On MS-Windows, these files are created in the +%TEMP% directory. + +The following command opens the file containing the messages printed by the +language server in the stdout: > + + :LspServer debug messages +< +The following command opens the file containing the messages printed by the +language server in the stderr: > + + :LspServer debug errors +< +To debug language server initialization problems, after enabling the above +server debug, you can restart the server for the file type in the current +buffer using the following command: > + + :LspServer restart +< +The language servers typically support command line options to enable debug +messages and to increase the verbosity of the messages. You can refer to the +language server documentation for information about this. You can include +these options when registering the language server with this plugin. + +If a language server supports the "$/logTrace" LSP notification, then you can +use the :LspServerTrace command to set the server trace value: > + + :LspServer trace { off | messages | verbose } +< +============================================================================== +14. Custom Command Handlers *lsp-custom-commands* + +When applying a code action, the language server may issue a non-standard +command. For example, the Java language server uses non-standard commands +(e.g. java.apply.workspaceEdit). To handle these commands, you can register a +callback function for each command using the LspRegisterCmdHandler() function. +For example: > + + vim9script + import autoload "lsp/textedit.vim" + + def WorkspaceEdit(cmd: dict<any>) + for editAct in cmd.arguments + textedit.ApplyWorkspaceEdit(editAct) + endfor + enddef + g:LspRegisterCmdHandler('java.apply.workspaceEdit', WorkspaceEdit) +< +Place the above code in a file named lsp_java/plugin/lsp_java.vim and load +this plugin. + +The callback function should accept a Dict argument. The Dict argument +contains the LSP Command interface fields. Refer to the LSP specification for +more information about the "Command" interface. + +============================================================================== +15. Custom LSP Completion Kinds *lsp-custom-kinds* + +When a completion popup is triggered, the LSP client will use a default kind +list to show in the completion "kind" section, to customize it, you need to +use the option |lsp-opt-customCompletionKinds| and set all custom kinds in the +option |lsp-opt-completionKinds| . There is a table with all default LSP +kinds: + + Kind Name | Value +------------------------|-------------------- + Text | t + Method | m + Function | f + Constructor | C + Field | F + Variable | v + Class | c + Interface | i + Module | M + Property | p + Unit | u + Value | V + Enum | e + Keyword | k + Snippet | S + Color | C + File | f + Reference | r + Folder | F + EnumMember | E + Constant | d + Struct | s + Event | E + Operator | o + TypeParameter | T + Buffer | B + +For example, if you want to change the "Method" kind to the kind "method()": > + + vim9script + + g:LspOptionsSet({ + customCompletionKinds: true, + completionKinds: { + "Method": "method()" + } + }) +< +In the completion popup, will show something like this: > + + var file = new File() + + file.cre + | create method() | + | createIfNotExists method() | + | ... | +< +============================================================================== +16. Multiple Language Servers for a buffer *lsp-multiple-servers* + +It's possible to run multiple language servers for a given buffer. + +By default the language server defined first will be used for as much as it +supports, then the next and so on. With the exception that diagnostics from +all running language servers will be combined. + +This means that you can define a language server that only supports a subset +of features at first and then define the general purpose language server after +it: +> + vim9script + + g:LspAddServer([ + # This language server reports that it only supports + # textDocument/documentFormatting, so it will be used + # for :LspFormat but nothing else. + { + filetype: ['html'], + path: 'html-pretty-lsp', + args: ['--stdio'] + }, + # This language server also supports + # textDocument/documentFormatting, but since it's been + # defined later, the one above will be used instead. + # However this server also supports + # textDocument/definition, textDocument/declaration, + # etc, so it will be used for :LspGotoDefinition, + # :LspGotoDeclaration, etc + { + filetype: ['html'], + path: 'html-language-server', + args: ['--stdio'] + } + ]) +< +As shown in the example above the order of when the language servers are being +defined is taken into account for a given method. However sometimes the +language server that you want to use for formatting also reports that it +supports other features. In such a case you can do one of two things: + +1. change the order of language servers, and specify that a given language +server should be used for a given method. + +2. set the unwanted features to |false| in the features |Dictionary| > + + features: { 'codeAction': false } +< +For example, if you want to use the efm-langserver for formatting, but the +typescript-language-server for everything else: > + + vim9script + + g:LspAddServer([ + # this language server will be used by default, as it's defined + # as the first LSP for 'javascript' and 'typescript' + { + filetype: ['javascript', 'typescript'], + path: '/usr/local/bin/typescript-language-server', + args: ['--stdio'] + }, + # this language server will be used for documentFormatting + { + filetype: ['javascript', 'typescript'], + path: '/usr/local/bin/efm-langserver', + args: [], + features: { + documentFormatting: true + } + } + ]) +< +Another way is to disable the unwanted features: for example if you don't want +diagnostics from the typescript-language-server, but want to use it for +everything else: > + + vim9script + + g:LspAddServer([ + { + filetype: ['javascript', 'typescript'], + path: '/usr/local/bin/typescript-language-server', + args: ['--stdio'], + features: { + diagnostics: false + } + }, + ]) +< +============================================================================== +17. Language Server Features *lsp-features* + +When using multiple language servers for a given file type, by providing the +configuration |lsp-cfg-features| it is possible to specify which language +server should be used for a given method/functionality. The following feature +flags are supported: See |lsp-multiple-servers| for examples. + + *lsp-features-callHierarchy* +callHierarchy Used by the|:LspIncomingCalls| and the + |:LspOutgoingCalls| commands. + *lsp-features-codeAction* +codeAction Used by the |:LspCodeAction| command. + *lsp-features-codeLens* +codeLens Used by the |:LspCodeLens| command. + *lsp-features-completion* +completion Used by 24/7 Completion and 'omnifunc' + *lsp-features-declaration* +declaration Used by the |:LspGotoDeclaration|, and + the |:LspPeekDeclaration| commands. + *lsp-features-definition* +definition Used by the|:LspGotoDefinition|, and + the |:LspPeekDefinition| commands. + *lsp-features-diagnostics* +diagnostics Used to disable diagnostics for a single + language server, by default diagnostics are + combined from all running servers, by setting + this to |false| you can ignore diagnostics + from a specific server. + *lsp-features-documentFormatting* +documentFormatting Used by the |:LspFormat| command, and + 'formatexpr' + *lsp-features-documentHighlight* +documentHighlight Used by the |:LspHighlight| and the + |:LspHighlightClear| commands. + *lsp-features-documentSymbol* +documentSymbol Used by the |:LspDocumentSymbol| and the + |:LspOutline| commands. + *lsp-features-foldingRange* +foldingRange Used by the|:LspFold| command. + *lsp-features-hover* +hover Used by the |:LspHover| command. + *lsp-features-implementation* +implementation Used by the |:LspGotoImpl| and the + |:LspPeekImpl| commands. + *lsp-features-inlayHint* +inlayHint Used to show the inlay hints for + function/method arguments. + *lsp-features-references* +references Used by the |:LspShowReferences| command. + *lsp-features-rename* +rename Used by the |:LspRename| command. + *lsp-features-selectionRange* +selectionRange Used by the |:LspSelectionExpand| and the + |:LspSelectionShrink| commands. + *lsp-features-signatureHelp* +signatureHelp Used by the |:LspShowSignature| command. + *lsp-features-typeDefinition* +typeDefinition Used by the |:LspGotoTypeDef| and the + |:LspPeekTypeDef| commands. +typeHierarchy Used by the |:LspSubTypeHierarchy| and the + |:LspSuperTypeHiearchy| commands. +workspaceSymbol Used by the |:LspSymbolSearch| command. + +============================================================================== + *lsp-license* +License: MIT License +Copyright (c) 2020-2023 Yegappan Lakshmanan + +Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy +of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to +deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the +rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or +sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is +furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: + +The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in +all copies or substantial portions of the Software. + +THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR +IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, +FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.
