- 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).
Problem: layout i.e. whitespace that is part of codelenses is currently
displayed as weird symbols and large amounts of spaces
Solution: replace all consecutive whitespace symbols with a single space
character when trying to display codelenses as virtual text
To avoid repeatedly requesting a buffer multiple times before a request is completed, the current implementation puts the requested buffer into the active_refreshes table before requesting.
But since we only remove the buffer from active_refreshes in the lsp-handler of textDocument/codeLens, this will cause if the user sends a request that cannot trigger lsp-handler (for example, if there is an LSP server attached to the current buffer, and especially when the user creates an autocmd which performs vim.lsp.codelens.refresh after the BufEnter event is triggered like in the document example), this buffer will be put into active_refreshes, and there is no way to remove it, which will result in all subsequent vim.lsp.codelens.refresh not requesting textDocument/codeLens.
According to the LSP specification, the CodeLens.command is optional but the CodeLens.command.command is not optional, which means the correct representation of a display-only code lens is indeed one with a command with a title to display and an empty string as command.
- 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).
Previously the LSP-Client object contained some fields that are also
in the client config, but for a lot of other fields, the config was used
directly making the two objects vaguely entangled with either not having
a clear role.
Now the config object is treated purely as config (read-only) from the
client, and any fields the client needs from the config are now copied
in as additional fields.
This means:
- the config object is no longet normalised and is left as the user
provided it.
- the client only reads the config on creation of the client and all
other implementations now read the clients version of the fields.
In addition, internal support for multiple callbacks has been added to
the client so the client tracking logic (done in lua.lsp) can be done
more robustly instead of wrapping the user callbacks which may error.
Problem:
The LSP client code is implemented as a complicated closure-class
(class defined in a single function).
Solution:
Move LSP client code to a more conventional Lua class and move to a
separate file.
* docs(lua): teach lua2dox how to table
* docs(lua): teach gen_vimdoc.py about local functions
No more need to mark local functions with @private
* docs(lua): mention @nodoc and @meta in dev-lua-doc
* fixup!

* feat(lua): vim.tbl_contains supports general tables and predicates
Problem: `vim.tbl_contains` only works for list-like tables (integer
keys without gaps) and primitive values (in particular, not for nested
tables).
Solution: Rename `vim.tbl_contains` to `vim.list_contains` and add new
`vim.tbl_contains` that works for general tables and optionally allows
`value` to be a predicate function that is checked for every key.
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.
This fixes issues where subsequent calls to vim.lsp.codelens.refresh()
would have no effect due to the buffer not getting cleared from the
active_refresh table.
Examples of how such scenarios would occur are:
- A textDocument/codeLens result yielded an error.
- The 'textDocument/codeLens' handler was overriden in such a way that
it no longer called vim.lsp.codelens.on_codelens().
It looks a bit off with the extmark going over the cursorline.
(With hl_mode combine it keeps the background of the cursorline under the codelens virtualtext)
Previously, the handler signature was:
function(err, method, params, client_id, bufnr, config)
In order to better support external plugins that wish to extend the
protocol, there is other information which would be advantageous to
forward to the client, such as the original params of the request that
generated the callback.
In order to do this, we would need to break symmetry of the handlers, to
add an additional "params" as the 7th argument.
Instead, this PR changes the signature of the handlers to:
function(err, result, ctx, config)
where ctx (the context) includes params, client_id, and bufnr. This also leaves
flexibility for future use-cases.
BREAKING_CHANGE: changes the signature of the built-in client handlers, requiring
updating handler calls
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.
