hey y'all!
what's the most stable, resilient plugin for highlighting/completion/lsp
I've used so far coc.nvim and ALE and both combined but they don't perform very well comparing to VS code ecosystem

What do you folks use ?

Hi

buu
coc
daz
what's your issue with coc? :^)
@jaawerth:matrix.org
I've had good experiences with both of the ones you've named. ALE's LSP support is more minimal but I've found coc requires a little elbow grease but is then hell on wheels
daz
also, what languages
@jaawerth:matrix.org
there's also the experimental LSP support in nvim 0.5.0 (aka master branch) + nvim-lsp but that's still a work in progress
(what's implemented thus far works welll though)
mrassili
I code mostly in React
combining JSX, js, CSSinJS code lacks support in both (in my experience)
@jaawerth:matrix.org
I haven't tried it in combination with CSSinJS but did you make sure to set the filetype to javascript.jsx or typescript.tsx (depending on whether you're using typescript)? iirc there's a note about that in coc-tsserver
buu
There's a vue language server that works pretty well
speaking of embedded stuff
mrassili
jaawerth looking into that
what about linting how do you handle that in coc?
@jaawerth:matrix.org
coc-eslint, which is a fork of vscode-eslint
assuming you're using eslint, which I am because there is no other linter that comes close in js these days ;-)
mrassili
using eslint
@jaawerth:matrix.org
coc has a pretty lush ecosystem of extensions that give you various LSP backends already tuned for coc integration and installable via :CocInstall, which is nice. you can also manually configure arbitrary LSP servers but the precooked integrations can save you some elbow grease
that's basically what nvim-lsp is - just a collection of presets + api glue for various LSP backends and install commands leveraging nvim 0.5.0's native lsp support
though coc goes further and crams in a bunch of stuff
mrassili
used them a bit and switched to ALE
@jaawerth:matrix.org
I do tend to prefer the way ALE provides linting feedback
mrassili
exactly
@jaawerth:matrix.org
in theory you could use both and just disable ALE's lsp support but I typically prefer minimizing the # of plugins if I can get similar functionality from both, and I just haven't bothered to find my optimal config that uses both together as of yet
clemons joined the room.
@jaawerth:matrix.org
and iirc there was an issue on getting ale and coc to play nice, something to do with the loclist
this https://github.com/dense-analysis/ale/issues/1945 you might be able to get around it by pointing one at the quickfix list and the other at the loclist but I didn't bother

ALE would clear location list that create from other plugin · Issue #1945 · dense-analysis/ale - GitHub
Information VIM version NVIM v0.3.2-462-gf2b555c9e Build type: Release Operating System: MacOS What went wrong https://github.com/w0rp/ale/blob/aa5c82b1718f44d04f6dd11bc63f6eeed2089d9d/autoload/ale...
I do like ALE's feedback better but if I'm going to use coc I am ok with its feedback in exchange for its other goodies
buu
What does ALE give you that coc doesn't?
daz
once i switched coc to use virtual text my linting life became nightmare^Wbetter
@jaawerth:matrix.org
buu: been a couple months since I've used ale but iirc it was just a ux thing in how it displayed the linter feedback
Foxfir3 joined the room.
mrassili
daz what do you mean by "virtual text"
@jaawerth:matrix.org
but daz makes a good point, I should play with that setting

how does kakoune bring anything new to the table?
daz
it has clippy
buu
daz: how do you enable that?
mrassili
never heard of kakoune
daz
buu: diagnostics.virtualText in cocconfig
@jaawerth:matrix.org
mrassili: there are settings like diagnostic.virtualText and diagnostic.virtualTextPrefix as well as highlight groupes you can override to change how it's displayed. should be documented in the coc help
daz
diagnostic.virtualText even
buu
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Hi guys. If I execute :highlight in Neovim, it seems that Neovim does not accept any MsgPackRPC calls. What I did:

Launch nvim via NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS=/tmp/nvim.sock nvim and enter :highlight
Execute the following python script
from pynvim import attach
nvim = attach('socket', path='/tmp/nvim.sock')
print(nvim.api.get_mode())
I expected to get {'mode': 'r', 'blocking': True}, but the script waits and does not get a response from nvim. Is this intentional and if so, how can I detect this state?

Foxfir3
okay. well.. without the dog, Its not really great I suppose
Tae Won Ha (Gitter)
(edited) ... get {'mode': ... => ... get something like{'mode': ...
buu
daz: You seem like you might know this
daz
know what :v
@jaawerth:matrix.org
mrassili: yeah if you :helpgrep virtualText or just :h coc-nvim and a search for virtualt, similarly you can see the highlight groups if you :h CocErrorVirtualText (which is the first one)
buu
daz: When I do CocCommand document.renameCurrentWord it works fine but the word I selected is highlighted in orange.. and stays highlighted after I finish running it
How do I get the hilight to go away
daz
maybe :nohl
Justin M. Keyes (Gitter)
@qvacua you would need to connect before checking nvim_get_mode
daz
maybe not, dunno :v
buu
daz: I think it's a different hl =[
I have all the search hilighting stuff off
Tae Won Ha (Gitter)
@justinmk I don't understand what you mean by connect?
Justin M. Keyes (Gitter)
@qvacua IOW nvim_get_mode will not block, but you need to be connected already.
NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS=/tmp/nvim.sock nvim
connect from API client
execute :hi
call nvim_get_mode from API client
the attach() step in your python sample code
Tae Won Ha (Gitter)
ah I see

Justin M. Keyes (Gitter)
yeah.
@qvacua just FYI, to avoid this problem during startup, nvim --embed waits for UI to connect before doing any Vimscript init.

@jaawerth:matrix.org
buu: that's probably using the highlight groups coc uses under the hood (which I think is in the docs), I'm guessing you can clear it with :highlight clear or :highlight clear group-name to not set ALL highlighting back to defaults
you'd just have to figure out what group it's using for the latter
surprised there isn't something built into the plugign to provide more control for that though, I hate when highlights are still around after I'm done with 'em
maybe there is and I just don't know about it
buu
I'll try that next time I use it
