- Problem: One cannot easily write something like, for example:
`version_current >= {0, 10, 0}`; writing like
`not vim.version.lt(version_current, {0, 10, 0})` is verbose.
- Solution: add {`le`,`ge`} in addition to {`lt`,`gt`}.
- Also improve typing on the operator methods: allow `string` as well.
- Update the example in `vim.version.range()` docs: `ge` in place of
`gt` better matches the semantics of `range:has`.
- Add section `VIM.LPEG` and `VIM.RE` to docs/lua.txt.
- Add `_meta/re.lua` which adds luadoc and type annotations, for the
vendored `vim.re` package.
- Fix minor style issues on `_meta/lpeg.lua` luadoc for better vimdocs
generation.
- Fix a bug on `gen_vimdoc` where non-helptags in verbatim code blocks
were parsed as helptags, affecting code examples on `vim.lpeg.Cf`,
etc.
- Also move the `vim.regex` section below so that it can be located
closer to `vim.lpeg` and `vim.re`.
Problem: Some lines in the generated vim doc are overflowing, not
correctly wrapped at 78 characters. This happens when docs body contains
several consecutive 'inline' elements generated by doxygen.
Solution: Take into account the current column offset of the last line,
and prepend some padding before doc_wrap().
Problem:
Currently `deepcopy` hashes every single tables it copies so it can be
reused. For tables of mostly unique items that are non recursive, this
hashing is unnecessarily expensive
Solution:
Port the `noref` argument from Vimscripts `deepcopy()`.
The below benchmark demonstrates the results for two extreme cases of
tables of different sizes. One table that uses the same table lots of
times and one with all unique tables.
| test | `noref=false` (ms) | `noref=true` (ms) |
| -------------------- | ------------------ | ----------------- |
| unique tables (50) | 6.59 | 2.62 |
| shared tables (50) | 3.24 | 6.40 |
| unique tables (2000) | 23381.48 | 2884.53 |
| shared tables (2000) | 3505.54 | 14038.80 |
The results are basically the inverse of each other where `noref` is
much more performance on tables with unique fields, and `not noref` is
more performant on tables that reuse fields.
- Remove the usage of the term "defer" to avoid confusion with
`vim.defer_fn`, which also calls `vim.schedule_wrap` internally.
- Explicitly state that `vim.schedule_wrap` returns a function in the
text.
- Mention that arguments are passed along.
- Include a usage example.
- Rename param to `fn`.
The on_detect functions returned by filetype.lua set buffer local
variables which are often used by filetype plugins. For example, the
on_detect function for shell buffers sets variables such as b:is_bash or
b:is_sh, which are used by the sh ftplugin.
When called after setting the buffer's filetype, these variables cannot
be used by the ftplugin (because they are not yet defined). Instead,
call on_detect before setting the buffer filetype so that any buffer
variables set by on_detect can be used in the ftplugin.
If an iterator pipeline stage returns nil as its first return value, the
other return values are ignored and it is treated as if that stage
returned only nil (the semantics of returning nil are different between
different stages). This is consistent with how for loops work in Lua
more generally, where the for loop breaks when the first return value
from the function iterator is nil (see :h for-in for details).
Problem: luals returns stricter diagnostics with bundled luarc.json
Solution: Improve some function and type annotations:
* use recognized uv.* types
* disable diagnostic for global `vim` in shared.lua
* docs: don't start comment lines with taglink (otherwise LuaLS will interpret it as a type)
* add type alias for lpeg pattern
* fix return annotation for `vim.secure.trust`
* rename local Range object in vim.version (shadows `Range` in vim.treesitter)
* fix some "missing fields" warnings
* add missing required fields for test functions in eval.lua
* rename lsp meta files for consistency
Problem: cache paths are derived by replacing each reserved/filesystem-
path-sensitive char with a `%` char in the original path. With this
method, two different files at two different paths (each containing `%`
chars) can erroneously resolve to the very same cache path in certain
edge-cases.
Solution: derive cache paths by url-encoding the original (path) instead
using `vim.uri_encode()` with `"rfc2396"`. Increment `Loader.VERSION` to
denote this change.
- eval.lua is now the source of truth.
- Formatting is much more consistent.
- Fixed Lua type generation for polymorphic functions (get(), etc).
- Removed "Overview" section from builtin.txt
- Can generate this if we really want it.
- Moved functions from sign.txt and testing.txt into builtin.txt.
- Removed the *timer* *timers* tags since libuv timers via vim.uv should be preferred.
- Removed the temp-file-name tag from tempname()
- Moved lueval() from lua.txt to builtin.txt.
* Fix indent
* fixup!
* fixup! fixup!
* fixup! better tag formatting
* fixup: revert changes no longer needed
* fixup! CI
