Nvim has already implemented this feature, so this only changes tests
and docs.
Make the bufnr argument have similar semantics across API functions;
namely, a nil value means "all buffers" while 0 means "current buffer".
This increases the flexibility of the API by allowing functions such as
enable() and disable() to apply globally or per-namespace, rather than
only on a specific buffer.
Also fix a few other small bugs regarding saving and restoring extmarks.
In particular, now that the virtual text and underline handlers have
their own dedicated namespaces, they should be responsible for saving
and restoring their own extmarks. Also fix the wrong argument ordering
in the call to `clear_diagnostic_cache` in the `on_detach` callback.
* vim.ui.input is an overridable function that prompts for user input
* take an opts table and the `on_confirm` callback, see `:help vim.ui.input` for more details
* defaults to a wrapper around vim.fn.input(opts)
* switches the built-in client's rename handler to use vim.ui.input by default
Problem:
1. "unpack" has an unrelated meaning in Lua:
https://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#pdf-unpack
2. We already have msgpackparse()/msgpackdump() and
json_encode()/json_decode(), so introducing another name for the same
thing is entropy.
Solution:
- Rename vim.mpack.pack/unpack => vim.mpack.encode/decode
Caveat:
This is incongruent with the `Unpacker` and `Packer` functions.
- It's probably too invasive to rename those.
- They also aren't part of our documented interface.
- This commit is "reversible" in the sense that we can always revert
it and add `vim.mpack.encode/decode` as _aliases_ to
`vim.mpack.pack/unpack`, at any time in the future, if we want
stricter fidelity with upstream libmpack. Meanwhile,
`vim.mpack.encode/decode` is currently the total _documented_
interface of `vim.mpack`, so this change serves the purpose of
consistent naming in the Nvim stdlib.
Rather than treating virtual_text, signs, and underline specially,
introduce the concept of generic "handlers", of which those three are
simply the defaults bundled with Nvim. Handlers are called in
`vim.diagnostic.show()` and `vim.diagnostic.hide()` and are used to
handle how diagnostics are displayed.
The spacing fix drew attention to a couple of places that were using
incorrect formatting such as the key listing for `nvim_open_win`, so
those were fixed too.
vim.bo can target a specific buffer by indexing with a number, e.g:
`vim.bo[2].filetype` can get/set the filetype for buffer 2. This change
replicates that behaviour for the variable namespace.
'show_line_diagnostics()' and 'show_position_diagnostics()' are
almost identical; they differ only in the fact that the latter also
accepts a column to form a full position, rather than just a line. This
is not enough to justify two separate interfaces for this common
functionality.
Renaming this to simply 'show_diagnostics()' is one step forward, but
that is also not a good name as the '_diagnostics()' suffix is
redundant. However, we cannot name it simply 'show()' since that
function already exists with entirely different semantics.
Instead, combine these two into a single 'open_float()' function that
handles all of the cases of showing diagnostics in a floating window.
Also add a "float" key to 'vim.diagnostic.config()' to provide global
values of configuration options that can be overridden ephemerally.
This makes the float API consistent with the rest of the diagnostic API.
BREAKING CHANGE
When using `true` as the value of a configuration option, the option is
configured to use default values. For example, if a user configures
virtual text to include the source globally (using
vim.diagnostic.config) and a specific namespace or producer configures
virtual text with `virt_text = true`, the user's global configuration is
overriden.
Instead, interpret a value of `true` to mean "use existing settings if
defined, otherwise use defaults".

Problem: Not easy to change directory and restore.
Solution: Add the chdir() function. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#4358)

Problem: Cannot handle change of directory.

Problem: Cannot distinguish Normal and Terminal-Normal mode.
Solution: Make mode() return "nt" for Terminal-Normal mode. (issue vim/vim#8856)
72406a4bd2
When entering terminal mode, cursorlineopt is no longer entirely
disabled. Instead, it's set to `number`. Doing so ensures that users
using `set cursorline` combined with `set cursorlineopt=number` have
consistent highlighting of the line numbers, instead of this being
disabled when entering terminal mode.

* fix(runtime/health): mitigate issues with duplicate healthchecks
Previously if a healthcheck was found as Lua and Vim it was executed
both times.
This new implementations prefers Lua, therefore if two are found It only
runs the Lua one, this way a plugin can mantain both implementations the
Lua one with the method `check()` and the autoload function `#check()`
(for none HEAD nvim versions).
**Note: This will require plugins to use `check()` as the function name,
since the autoload function that wraps the lua implementation won't be
called**
* docs(health): use spaces and don't overuse backtics
followup to #15259
Adds the following API functions.
- nvim_buf_set_mark(buf, name, line, col)
* Set marks in a buffer.
- nvim_buf_del_mark(buf, name)
* Delete a mark that belongs to buffer.
- nvim_del_mark(name)
* Delete a global mark.
- nvim_get_mark(name)
* Get a global mark.
Tests:
- Adds test to all the new api functions, and adds more for the existing
nvim_buf_get_mark.
* Tests include failure cases.
Documentation:
- Adds documentation for all the new functions, and improves the
existing fucntion docs.
