Currently once you retrieve the lenses you're pretty much stuck with
them as saving new lenses is additive.
Adding a dedicated method to reset lenses allows users to toggle lenses
on/off which can be useful for language servers where they are noisy or
expensive and you only want to see them temporary.
Apply semantic token modifiers as separate extmarks with corresponding
highlight groups (e.g., `@readonly`). This is a low-effort PR to enable
the most common use cases (applying, e.g., italics or backgrounds on top
of type highlights; language-specific fallbacks like `@global.lua` are
also available). This can be replaced by more complicated selector-style
themes later on.

Problem:
The {foo} parameters listed in `:help api` and similar generated docs,
are intended to be a "list" but they aren't prefixed with a list symbol.
This prevents parsers from understanding the list, which forces
generators like `gen_help_html.lua` to use hard-wrapped/preformatted
layout instead of a soft-wrapped "flow" layout.
Solution:
Modify gen_vimdoc.py to prefix {foo} parameters with a "•" symbol.
This starts a soft phase-out of `buf_request`.
`buf_request` is quite error prone:
- Positional `params` depend on the client because of the
`offset_encoding`. Currently if there is one client using UTF-8 offset
encoding and another using UTF-16, the positions in the request are
wrong for one of the clients. To solve this the params would need to
be created per client instead of once for all of them.
- `handler` is called *per* client but many users of it assume it is
only called once.
This can lead to a "select n + 1"
kind of problem, where the handler makes another call to `buf_request`,
multiplying the amount of requests.
(There are in fact still some places where this happens in core)
Or it leads to erratic behavior if called multiple times (E.g. the
quicklist list flickering & being overwritten)
(See hover or references implementation)
`buf_request_all` returns an aggregate of the responses which is more
sensible as it avoids this problem.
For off-spec extensions it also has the problem that it sends requests to
clients which cannot handle a given request.
Given that `buf_request` is in use by a lot of plugins this starts a
soft-phase out. Planned Steps:
- Remove from docs
- Provide an alternative, either `buf_request_all`, maybe with
extensions (params being a function), or an entirely new method.
- Mark as deprecated in 0.9
- Remove in 0.10
To note:
- `buf_request_all` currently isn't ideal either because it suffers from
the `params` problem as well.
- This implies that the `vim.lsp.with` pattern will die, because the
global handlers as they are don't fit a multi-client model, as most of
the time an aggregate is needed.
The lsp client used to wait up to 500ms for a language server to
shutdown before sending a TERM signal.
The intention behind the 500ms grace period was to ensure the language
server exits to prevent stale processes, but it has the side-effect that
it can interrupt language-servers which are too slow to shutdown within
500ms. Language servers tend to write out index files or project files
on shutdown, and being interrupted during this process can cause
corruption of those files.
This changes the default to not wait at all, at the risk of leaving
stale processes around if the language server isn't well behaved.
An alternative would be to wait indefinitely, but that can cause neovim
to take several seconds to exit.
`code_action` gained extra functions (`filter` and `apply`) which
`range_code_action` didn't have.
To close this gap, this adds a `range` option to `code_action` and
deprecates `range_code_action`.
The option defaults to the current selection if in visual mode.
This allows users to setup a mapping like `vim.keymap.set({'v', 'n'},
'<a-CR>', vim.lsp.buf.code_action)`
`range_code_action` used to use the `<` and `>` markers to get the
_last_ selection which required using a `<Esc><Cmd>lua
vim.lsp.buf.range_code_action()<CR>` (note the `<ESC>`) mapping.
Currently LSP allows only using loclist or quickfix list window. I
normally prefer to review all quickfix items without opening quickfix
window. This fix allows passing `on_list` option which allows full
control what to do with list.
Here is example how to use it with quick fix list:
```lua
local function on_list(options)
vim.fn.setqflist({}, ' ', options)
vim.api.nvim_command('cfirst')
end
local bufopts = { noremap=true, silent=true, buffer=bufnr }
vim.keymap.set('n', '<leader>ad', function() vim.lsp.buf.declaration{on_list=on_list} end, bufopts)
vim.keymap.set('n', '<leader>d', function() vim.lsp.buf.definition{on_list=on_list} end, bufopts)
vim.keymap.set('n', '<leader>ai', function() vim.lsp.buf.implementation{on_list=on_list} end, bufopts)
vim.keymap.set('n', '<leader>at', function() vim.lsp.buf.type_definition{on_list=on_list} end, bufopts)
vim.keymap.set('n', '<leader>af', function() vim.lsp.buf.references(nil, {on_list=on_list}) end, bufopts)
```
If you prefer loclist do something like this:
```lua
local function on_list(options)
vim.fn.setloclist(0, {}, ' ', options)
vim.api.nvim_command('lopen')
end
```

A alternative/subset of https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/18506 that should be forward compatible with a potential project system.
Configuration of LSP clients (without lspconfig) now looks like this:
vim.lsp.start({
name = 'my-server-name',
cmd = {'name-of-language-server-executable'},
root_dir = vim.fs.dirname(vim.fs.find({'setup.py', 'pyproject.toml'}, { upward = true })[1]),
})
This makes the common use case easier.
If one really needs access to all clients, they can create a filter
function which manually calls `get_active_clients`.
The current approach of using `on_attach` callbacks for configuring
buffers for LSP is suboptimal:
1. It does not use the standard Nvim interface for driving and hooking
into events (i.e. autocommands)
2. There is no way for "third parties" (e.g. plugins) to hook into the
event. This means that *all* buffer configuration must go into the
user-supplied on_attach callback. This also makes it impossible for
these configurations to be modular, since it all must happen in the
same place.
3. There is currently no way to do something when a client detaches from
a buffer (there is no `on_detach` callback).
The solution is to use the traditional method of event handling in Nvim:
autocommands. When a LSP client is attached to a buffer, fire a
`LspAttach`. Likewise, when a client detaches from a buffer fire a
`LspDetach` event.
This enables plugins to easily add LSP-specific configuration to buffers
as well as enabling users to make their own configurations more modular
(e.g. by creating multiple LspAttach autocommands that each do
something unique).
This will check if the string after the variable in a @param is either
"number", "string", "table", "boolean" and "function" and if so add a
parenthesis around it. This will help separate the variable type with
the following text. Had all our functions been annotated with emmylua
then a more robust solution might have been preferable (such as always
assuming the third string is parameter type without making any checks).
I believe however this is a clear improvement over the current situation
and will suffice for now.
LSP servers should be daemonized (detached) so that they run in a
separate process group from Neovim's. Among other things, this ensures
the process does not inherit Neovim's TTY (#18475).
Make this configurable so that clients can explicitly opt-out of
detaching from Nvim.
Adds filter and id options to filter the client to use for rename.
Similar to the recently added `format` function.
rename will use all matching clients one after another and can handle a
mix of prepareRename/rename support. Also ensures the right
`offset_encoding` is used for the `make_position_params` calls
