Problem:
Some LSP method handlers were making requests without specifying a
bufnr, defaulting to 0 (current). This works in most cases but
fails when client attaches to background buffers, causing
assertions in handlers to fail.
Solution:
Ensure bufnr is passed to Client.request for buffer-local methods.
**Problem:** For unchanged document diagnostic reports, the `resultId`
is ignored completely, even though it should still be saved for the
request (in fact, the spec marks it as mandatory for unchanged reports,
so it should be extra important).
**Solution:** Always store the `resultId`.
This commit allows users to jump to the location specified in a
diagnostic's `relatedInformation`, using `gf` from within the
`open_float` window. The cursor need only be on line that displays the
related info.
Problem:
`vim.diagnostic.set()` doesn't actually accept a list of
`vim.Diagnostic` as internally `vim.diagnostic.set()` normalizes the
diagnostics and this normalization is assumed throughout the module.
Solution:
- Add a new type `vim.Diagnostic.Set` which is the input to `vim.diagnostic.set()`
- `col` is now an optional field and defaults to `0` to be consistent
with `vim.diagnostic.match()`.
- Change `table.insert(t, x)` to `table[#table + 1] = x` for improved
type checking.
**Problem:** For multiline diagnostics, the end column was improperly
calculated by checking the byte index of the character position on the
*start* line.
**Solution:** Calculate the byte index for end_col using the *end* line.
Problem:
Users of the Roslyn (C#) LSP have encountered significant delays when
retrieving pull diagnostics in large documents while using Neovim. For
instance, diagnostics in a 2000-line .cs file can take over 20 seconds
to display after edits in Neovim, whereas in VS Code, diagnostics for
the same file are displayed almost instantly.
As [mparq noted](https://github.com/seblj/roslyn.nvim/issues/93#issuecomment-2508940330)
in https://github.com/seblj/roslyn.nvim/issues/93, VS Code leverages
additional parameters specified in the [LSP documentation for
textDocument/diagnostic](https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/lsp/3.17/specification/#documentDiagnosticParams),
specifically:
- previousResultId
- identifier
Solution:
When requesting diagnostics, Neovim should include the
`previousResultId` and `identifier` parameters as part of the request.
These parameters enable the server to utilize caching and return
incremental results.
Support for maintaining state is already present in the
[textDocument/semanticTokens implementation](8f84167c30/runtime/lua/vim/lsp/semantic_tokens.lua (L289)).
A similar mechanism can be implemented in `textDocument/diagnostic` handler.
Problem:
LSP spec uses the term "position encoding" where we say "offset encoding".
Solution:
- Rename it everywhere except `vim.lsp.Client.offset_encoding` (which would be breaking).
- Mention "position encoding" in the documentation for `vim.lsp.Client.offset_encoding`.
- Partition the handlers in vim.lsp.handlers as:
- client to server response handlers (RCS)
- server to client request handlers (RSC)
- server to client notification handlers (NSC)
Note use string indexes instead of protocol.methods for improved
typing in LuaLS (tip: use hover on RCS, RSC or NSC).
* deprecate old signatures
* move to new str_byteindex/str_utfindex signature
* use single-underscore name (double-underscore is reserved for Lua itself)
`buf.code_action` always included diagnostics on a given line from all
clients. Servers should only receive diagnostics they published, and in
the exact same format they sent it.
Should fix https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/29500
- Added `@inlinedoc` so single use Lua types can be inlined into the
functions docs. E.g.
```lua
--- @class myopts
--- @inlinedoc
---
--- Documentation for some field
--- @field somefield integer
--- @param opts myOpts
function foo(opts)
end
```
Will be rendered as
```
foo(opts)
Parameters:
- {opts} (table) Object with the fields:
- somefield (integer) Documentation
for some field
```
- Marked many classes with with `@nodoc` or `(private)`.
We can eventually introduce these when we want to.
Problem:
The documentation flow (`gen_vimdoc.py`) has several issues:
- it's not very versatile
- depends on doxygen
- doesn't work well with Lua code as it requires an awkward filter script to convert it into pseudo-C.
- The intermediate XML files and filters makes it too much like a rube goldberg machine.
Solution:
Re-implement the flow using Lua, LPEG and treesitter.
- `gen_vimdoc.py` is now replaced with `gen_vimdoc.lua` and replicates a portion of the logic.
- `lua2dox.lua` is gone!
- No more XML files.
- Doxygen is now longer used and instead we now use:
- LPEG for comment parsing (see `scripts/luacats_grammar.lua` and `scripts/cdoc_grammar.lua`).
- LPEG for C parsing (see `scripts/cdoc_parser.lua`)
- Lua patterns for Lua parsing (see `scripts/luacats_parser.lua`).
- Treesitter for Markdown parsing (see `scripts/text_utils.lua`).
- The generated `runtime/doc/*.mpack` files have been removed.
- `scripts/gen_eval_files.lua` now instead uses `scripts/cdoc_parser.lua` directly.
- Text wrapping is implemented in `scripts/text_utils.lua` and appears to produce more consistent results (the main contributer to the diff of this change).
Problem:
`vim.lsp.diagnostic.on_diagnostic` accepts an undocumented severity_limit
option which is widely used.
Solution:
Deprecate it in favour of `{min = severity}` used in `vim.diagnostic`.
Since this is undocumented, the schedule for removal is accelerated to
0.11.
The benefit of this is that users only pay for what they use. If e.g.
only `vim.lsp.buf_get_clients()` is called then they don't need to load
all modules under `vim.lsp` which could lead to significant startuptime
saving.
Also `vim.lsp.module` is a bit nicer to user compared to
`require("vim.lsp.module")`.
This isn't used for some nested modules such as `filetype` as it breaks
tests with error messages such as "attempt to index field 'detect'".
It's not entirely certain the reason for this, but it is likely it is
due to filetype being precompiled which would imply deferred loading
isn't needed for performance reasons.
