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 :)

- remove redundant autocmd list
This "grouped" list is useless, it only gets in the way when searching
for event names.
- intro.txt: cleanup
- starting.txt: update, revisit
- doc: `:help bisect`
- mbyte.txt: update aliases 1656367b90. closes#11960
- options: remove 'guifontset'. Why:
- It is complicated and is used by almost no one.
- It is unlikely to be implemented by Nvim GUIs (complicated to parse,
specific to Xorg...).
* Fix some small doc issues
* doc: fixup
* doc: fixup
* Fix lint and rebase
* Remove bad advice
* Ugh, stupid mpack files...
* Don't let people include these for now until they specifically want to
* Prevent duplicate tag
- make parameters_doc a dict intead of a list
BEFORE:
"parameters_doc": [
{
"buffer": "Buffer handle, or 0 for current buffer"
}
],
AFTER:
"parameters_doc": {
"buffer": "Buffer handle, or 0 for current buffer"
},
- make "return", "seealso", lists instead of strings
Changes the generated msgpack result values in the runtime/doc/*.mpack
files to be formatted like this (instead of being formatted like Vim help text):
[
'nvim_win_get_var': {
'signature': 'nvim_win_get_var({window}, {name}, {err})',
'parameters': [('Window', 'window'), ('String', 'name'), ('Error *', 'err')],
'parameters_doc': [{'window': 'Window handle, or 0 for current window', 'name': 'Variable name'}],
'doc': ['Gets a window-scoped (w:) variable'],
'return': ['Variable value'],
'seealso': []
}
},
...
]
Convenient for API clients who want to reuse the API docs in their own
docs. Could be used e.g. to eliminate nvim.net's own doxygen parser:
3a736232a4/src/NvimClient.APIGenerator/Docs
TODO: currently the result values are formatted as Vim help docs. We
should change the values to have structure, something like this:
[{
'nvim_win_get_var': [
'line1,
'line2',
[ 'item1', 'item2', ... ]
],
'nvim_win_set_var': [
...
],
...
}]
close#11296
- render_node() is now the main rendering function: it traverses a node
and builds the Vim help text recursively.
- render_para() is weird and ugly, it is the entry-point for rendering
the help text for one docstring'd function.
