Add two new methods to allow diagnostics to be disabled (and re-enabled)
in the current buffer. When diagnostics are disabled they are simply not
displayed to the user, but they are still sent by the server and
processed by the client.
Disabling diagnostics can be helpful in a number of scenarios. For
example, if one is working on a buffer with an overwhelming amount of
diagnostic warnings it can be helpful to simply disable diagnostics
without disabling the LSP client entirely. This also allows users more
flexibility on when and how they may want diagnostic information to be
displayed. For example, some users may not want to display diagnostic
information until after the buffer is first written.
* lsp: client stop cleanups
* Add diagnostic clearing to client.stop() method used by nvim-lspconfig
* Clear diagnostic cache to prevent stale diagnostics on client restart
* lsp: Add test for vim.lsp.diagnostic.reset
* lsp: Remove duplicate `diagnostics` fallback in diagnostic.display
* lsp: Expose all diagnostics
Before the changes in #12655 it was possible to retrieve all diagnostics
via `vim.lsp.util.diagnostics_by_buf`.
This adds a `diagnostic.get_all()` to enable users to retrieve all
diagnostics.
Use cases for that could include loading all diagnostics into the
quickfix list, or to build an enhanced goto_next that can move across
buffers.
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 :)

Reduce API surface. We don't need so many variations of functions. Too
many functions means verbose, largely redundant documentation, tests,
and cognitive burden.
- Use correct implementation of text_edits.
- Send indent options to rangeFormatting and formatting.
- Remove references to vim bindings and filetype from lsp.txt
- Add more examples to docs.
- Add before_init to allow changing initialize_params.
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.
