vim.bo can target a specific buffer by indexing with a number, e.g:
`vim.bo[2].filetype` can get/set the filetype for buffer 2. This change
replicates that behaviour for the variable namespace.
Fixes#15147 and fixes#15497. Also sketch "subdir" caching. Currently
this only caches whether an rtp entry has a "lua/" subdir but we could
consider cache other subdirs potentially or even "lua/mybigplugin/"
possibly.
Note: the async_leftpad test doesn't actually fail on master, at least
not deterministically (even when disabling the fast_breakcheck
throttling). It's still useful as a regression test for further changes
and included as such.
Continuation of https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/15202
A plugin like telescope could override it with a fancy implementation
and then users would get the telescope-ui within each plugin that
utilizes the vim.ui.select function.
There are some plugins which override the `textDocument/codeAction`
handler solely to provide a different UI. With custom client commands and
soon codeAction resolve support, it becomes more difficult to implement
the handler right - so having a dedicated way to override the picking
function will be useful.
This generalizes diagnostic handling outside of just the scope of LSP.
LSP clients are now a specific case of a diagnostic producer, but the
diagnostic subsystem is decoupled from the LSP subsystem (or will be,
eventually).
More discussion at [1].

Analogous to nodejs's `on('data', …)` interface, here on_key is the "add
listener" interface.
ref 3ccdbc570d#12536
BREAKING_CHANGE: vim.register_keystroke_callback() is now an error.
fixes#15524
Note: this is obviously a quickfix. A scalabe solution will
involve being able to specify a _list_ of modules to be
put into packages.preload, without needing to manually copypasta
a blurb of C code. Perhaps even involving bytecode for
static builds (to speedup initialization)
The official developer documentation in in :h dev-lua-doc specifies to
use "--@" for special/magic tokens. However, this format is not
consistent with EmmyLua notation (used by some Lua language servers) nor
with the C version of the magic docstring tokens which use three comment
characters.
Further, the code base is currently split between usage of "--@",
"---@", and "--- @". In an effort to remain consistent, change all Lua
magic tokens to use "---@" and update the developer documentation
accordingly.
If vim.region receives a large range outside of the current buffer
bounds, it will not check the range ahead of time and loop until neovim
exhausts the system memory.
Fixes#14743
Adds function to notify the user like this:
`:lua vim.notify("hello user")`
embeds log levels vim.log.levels.
you can then reassign vim.notify to for instance
```
function notify_external(msg, log_level, opts)
vim.fn.jobstart({"notify-send", msg })
end
```
Breaking Changes:
- Deprecated all `vim.lsp.util.{*diagnostics*}()` functions.
- Instead, all functions must be found in vim.lsp.diagnostic
- For now, they issue a warning ONCE per neovim session. In a
"little while" we will remove them completely.
- `vim.lsp.callbacks` has moved to `vim.lsp.handlers`.
- For a "little while" we will just redirect `vim.lsp.callbacks` to
`vim.lsp.handlers`. However, we will remove this at some point, so
it is recommended that you change all of your references to
`callbacks` into `handlers`.
- This also means that for functions like |vim.lsp.start_client()|
and similar, keyword style arguments have moved from "callbacks"
to "handlers". Once again, these are currently being forward, but
will cease to be forwarded in a "little while".
- Changed the highlight groups for LspDiagnostic highlight as they were
inconsistently named.
- For more information, see |lsp-highlight-diagnostics|
- Changed the sign group names as well, to be consistent with
|lsp-highlight-diagnostics|
General Enhancements:
- Rewrote much of the getting started help document for lsp. It also
provides a much nicer configuration strategy, so as to not recommend
globally overwriting builtin neovim mappings.
LSP Enhancements:
- Introduced the concept of |lsp-handlers| which will allow much better
customization for users without having to copy & paste entire files /
functions / etc.
Diagnostic Enhancements:
- "goto next diagnostic" |vim.lsp.diagnostic.goto_next()|
- "goto prev diagnostic" |vim.lsp.diagnostic.goto_prev()|
- For each of the gotos, auto open diagnostics is available as a
configuration option
- Configurable diagnostic handling:
- See |vim.lsp.diagnostic.on_publish_diagnostics()|
- Delay display until after insert mode
- Configure signs
- Configure virtual text
- Configure underline
- Set the location list with the buffers diagnostics.
- See |vim.lsp.diagnostic.set_loclist()|
- Better performance for getting counts and line diagnostics
- They are now cached on save, to enhance lookups.
- Particularly useful for checking in statusline, etc.
- Actual testing :)
- See ./test/functional/plugin/lsp/diagnostic_spec.lua
- Added `guisp` for underline highlighting
NOTE: "a little while" means enough time to feel like most plugins and
plugin authors have had a chance to refactor their code to use the
updated calls. Then we will remove them completely. There is no need to
keep them, because we don't have any released version of neovim that
exposes these APIs. I'm trying to be nice to people following HEAD :)

- Add vim variable meta accessors: vim.env, vim.{g,v,w,bo,wo}
- Redo gen_char_blob to generate multiple blobs instead of just one
so that multiple Lua modules can be inlined.
- Reorder vim.lua inclusion so that it can use previously defined C
functions and utility functions like vim.shared and vim.inspect things.
- Inline shared.lua into nvim, but also keep it available in runtime.
Mainly configuration and RPC infrastructure can be considered "done". Specific requests and their callbacks will be improved later (and also served by plugins). There are also some TODO:s for the client itself, like incremental updates.
