When multiple diagnostics appear on a single line, the virtual lines for
all diagnostics except the first were rendered with progressively fewer
columns.
Compute the diagnostics per line when `show` is called, allowing for
O(1) access for the diagnostics to display when the cursor line or the
list of diagnostics haven't changed.
Problem:
The current implementation uses a global augroup for virtual lines in
diagnostics, which can lead to conflicts and unintended behavior when
multiple namespaces/buffers are involved.
Solution:
Refactor the code to use a namespace-specific augroup for virtual lines.
This ensures that each namespace has its own augroup.
Scope the clear commands to only the relevant buffer.
Problem: Right aligned virtual text can cover up buffer text if virtual
text is too long
Solution: An additional option for `virt_text_pos` called
`eol_right_align` has been added to truncate virtual text if it would
have otherwise covered up buffer text. This ensures the virtual text
extends no further left than EOL.
Making this opt-out (on by default) was the wrong choice from the
beginning. It is too visually noisy to be enabled by default.
BREAKING CHANGE: Users must opt-in to the diagnostic virtual text
handler by adding
vim.diagnostic.config({ virtual_text = true })
to their config.
BREAKING CHANGE: This changes the list of diagnostics that are passed to
a diagnostic handler. If a handler is already filtering by severity
itself then this won't break anything, since the handler's filtering
will become a no-op. But handlers which depend on receiving the full
list of diagnostics may break.
Note that diagnostics are only filtered if the handler's configuration
has the `severity` option set. If `severity` is not set, the handler
still receives the full list of diagnostics.
vim.diagnostic.set_list() uses chistory to restore the actively selected
entry whenever necessary. This however also results in it displaying
some output in the message bar, but this output isn't useful (and can
even be distracting) when opening the quickfix window. This fixes this
by silencing the chistory command.
Problem:
Regression from de794f2d24: `vim.diagnostic.setqflist{open=true}` attempts to
open the location list instead of the diagnostics quickfix list if it didn't
exist before. This is because we are using `qf_id` to decide which to open, but
`qf_id=nil` when there is no existing diagnostics quickfix list with a given
title ("Diagnostics" by default).
Solution:
- Revert to using `loclist` to decide which to open.
- Add tests.
Previously, when updating the quickfix diagnostics list, we'd update it,
and then open the quickfix buffer, but there was no guarantee that the
quickfix buffer would be displaying the quickfix diagnostics list (it
could very possibly be displaying some other quickfix list!).
This fixes things so we first select the quickfix list before opening the
quickfix buffer. If `open` is not specified, the behavior is the same as
before: we update the diagnostics quickfix list, but do not navigate to
it.
fixes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/31540
The old code would always update `_qf_id` with the current quickfix,
even if you're currently looking at a completely different,
non-diagnostics quickfix list. This completely defeats the intent of
<https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/30868>, whoops!
1. Use the new "u" action to update the quickfix list so we don't lose
our position in the quickfix list when updating it.
2. Rather than creating a new quickfix list each time, update the
exiting one if we've already created one.
feat(diagnostics)!: sort underline with severity_sort
BREAKING CHANGE: underline will be applied with a higher value than `vim.hl.priorities.diagnostics`
Problem:
`vim.validate()` takes two forms when it only needs one.
Solution:
- Teach the fast form all the features of the spec form.
- Deprecate the spec form.
- General optimizations for both forms.
- Add a `message` argument which can be used alongside or in place
of the `optional` argument.
Problem:
- `vim.highlight` module does not follow `:help dev-name-common`, which
documents the name for "highlight" as "hl".
- Shorter names are usually preferred.
Solution:
Rename `vim.highlight` to `vim.hl`.
This is not a breaking change until 2.0 (or maybe never).
Problem: the code and docs for vim.diagnostic.JumpOpts.float send mixed
signals about what the default should be. When the option is first set,
in the global_diagnostic_options table, the comment clearly says that
the default is false. Later in the code, in goto_diagnostic, there's
a line that sets the default to true if no default is present. Finally,
the docs say that the default is true.
Solution: Change the docs to reflect the new default of false and fix
the goto_diagnostic function.
Problem:
If there are errors in the last line of a buffer, something like `Gdk` or
`G2k3J` will produce an error (at least with `lua_ls`):
Error executing vim.schedule lua callback:
.../neovim/share/nvim/runtime/lua/vim/diagnostic.lua:1446: Invalid 'line': out of range
Solution:
Only set extmarks if the target buffer line still exists
Problem: There is no easy way to configure the behavior of the default
diagnostic "jump" mappings. For example, some users way want to show the
floating window, and some may not (likewise, some way want to only move
between warnings/errors, or disable the "wrap" parameter).
Solution: Add a "jump" table to vim.diagnostic.config() that sets
default values for vim.diagnostic.jump().
Alternatives: Users can override the default mappings to use the exact
options to vim.diagnostic.jump() that they want, but this has a couple
issues:
- While the default mappings are not complicated, they are also not
trivial, so overriding them requires users to understand
implementation details (specifically things like setting "count"
properly).
- If plugins want to change the default mappings, or configure the
behavior in any way (e.g. floating window display), it becomes even
harder for users to tweak specific behavior.
vim.diagnostic.config() already works quite well as the "entry point"
for tuning knobs with diagnostic UI elements, so this fits in nicely and
composes well with existing mental models and idioms.
Deprecate vim.diagnostic.goto_prev() and vim.diagnostic.goto_next() in
favor of a unified vim.diagnostic.jump() interface.
We cannot name the function "goto()" because some of our tooling
(luacheck and stylua) fail to parse it, presumably because "goto" is a
keyword in newer versions of Lua.
vim.diagnostic.jump() also allows moving to a specific diagnostic and
moving by multiple diagnostics at a time (useful for creating mappings
that use v:count).
Deprecation with vim.deprecate is currently too noisy. Show the
following warning instead:
[function] is deprecated. Run ":checkhealth vim.deprecated" for more information.
The important part is that the full message needs to be short enough to
fit in one line in order to not trigger the "Press ENTER or type command
to continue" prompt.
The full information and stack trace for the deprecated functions will
be shown in the new healthcheck `vim.deprecated`.
Problem: On nvim 11.0-dev, deprecation warnings due to an use of
hard-deprecated APIs such as:
- `vim.diagnostic.disable()`
- `vim.diagnostic.is_disabled()`
etc. are not accompanied by backtrace information. It makes difficult
for users to figure out which lines or which plugins are still using
deprecated APIs.
Solution: use `backtrace = true` in vim.deprecate() call.
Follow-up to #28490
Problem:
The new behaviour of goto_next/prev() of navigating to the next highest
severity doesn't work well when diagnostic providers have different
interpretations of severities. E.g. the user may be blocked from
navigating to a useful LSP warning, due to some linter error.
Solution:
The behaviour of next highest severity is now a hidden option
`_highest = true`. We can revisit how to integrate this behaviour
during the 0.11 cycle.
Problem:
The new LSP "refactor menu" keybinding "crr" is also defined in visual
mode, which overlaps with the builtin "c".
Solution:
Use CTRL-R instead of "crr" for visual mode.
fix#28528
Problem: when line is blank link then there will got an invalid column number in math.min compare.
Solution: make sure the min column number is 0 not an illegal number.
Instead of adding all diagnostics matching lnum filters to a table, and
then copying that table to another table while applying the severity
filter, this changes the flow to only add diagnostics matching both
filters in the first pass.
Problem:
We need to establish a pattern for `enable()`.
Solution:
- First `enable()` parameter is always `enable:boolean`.
- Update `vim.diagnostic.enable()`
- Update `vim.lsp.inlay_hint.enable()`.
- It was not released yet, so no deprecation is needed. But to help
HEAD users, it will show an informative error.
- vim.deprecate():
- Improve message when the "removal version" is a *current or older* version.
