- 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:
`vim.validate()` takes two forms when it only needs one.
Solution:
- Teach the fast form all the features of the spec form.
- Deprecate the spec form.
- General optimizations for both forms.
- Add a `message` argument which can be used alongside or in place
of the `optional` argument.
Problem:
- `vim.highlight` module does not follow `:help dev-name-common`, which
documents the name for "highlight" as "hl".
- Shorter names are usually preferred.
Solution:
Rename `vim.highlight` to `vim.hl`.
This is not a breaking change until 2.0 (or maybe never).
This commit also marks `child_containing_descendant()` as deprecated
(per upstream's documentation), and uses `child_with_descendant()` in
its place. Minimum required tree-sitter version will now be `0.24`.
* Revert "fix(lsp): account for changedtick version gap on modified reset (#29170)"
This reverts commit 2e6d295f79.
* Revert "refactor(lsp): replace util.buf_versions with changedtick (#28943)"
This reverts commit 5c33815448.
`lsp.util.buf_versions` was already derived from changedtick (`on_lines`
from `buf_attach` synced the version)
As far as I can tell there is no need to keep track of the state in a
separate table.
Deprecate vim.diagnostic.goto_prev() and vim.diagnostic.goto_next() in
favor of a unified vim.diagnostic.jump() interface.
We cannot name the function "goto()" because some of our tooling
(luacheck and stylua) fail to parse it, presumably because "goto" is a
keyword in newer versions of Lua.
vim.diagnostic.jump() also allows moving to a specific diagnostic and
moving by multiple diagnostics at a time (useful for creating mappings
that use v:count).
Problem:
`vim.rpcnotify(0)` and `rpcnotify(0)` are documented as follows:
If {channel} is 0, the event is broadcast to all channels.
But that's not actually true. Channels must call `nvim_subscribe` to
receive "broadcast" events, so it's actually "multicast".
- Assuming there is a use-case for "broadcast", the current model adds
an extra step for broadcasting: all channels need to "subscribe".
- The presence of `nvim_subscribe` is a source of confusion for users,
because its name implies something more generally useful than what it
does.
Presumably the use-case of `nvim_subscribe` is to avoid "noise" on RPC
channels not expected a broadcast notification, and potentially an error
if the channel client reports an unknown event.
Solution:
- Deprecate `nvim_subscribe`/`nvim_unsubscribe`.
- If applications want to multicast, they can keep their own multicast
list. Or they can use `nvim_list_chans()` and `nvim_get_chan_info()`
to enumerate and filter the clients they want to target.
- Always send "broadcast" events to ALL channels. Don't require channels
to "subscribe" to receive broadcasts. This matches the documented
behavior of `rpcnotify()`.
TODO:
FUNC_API_REMOTE_ONLY APIs such as `nvim_ui_*` cannot (yet) be used in
`nvim_exec_lua`. We can change FUNC_API_REMOTE_ONLY to allow
Vimscript/Lua to pass an explicit `channel_id`. #28437
Problem:
`vim.diagnostic.is_disabled` and `vim.diagnostic.disable` are unnecessary
and inconsistent with the "toggle" pattern (established starting with
`vim.lsp.inlay_hint`, see https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/25512#pullrequestreview-1676750276
As a reminder, the rationale is:
- we always need `enable()`
- we always end up needing `is_enabled()`
- "toggle" can be achieved via `enable(not is_enabled())`
- therefore,
- `toggle()` and `disable()` are redundant
- `is_disabled()` is a needless inconsistency
Solution:
- Introduce `vim.diagnostic.is_enabled`, and `vim.diagnostic.enable(…, enable:boolean)`
- Note: Future improvement would be to add an `enable()` overload `enable(enable:boolean, opts: table)`.
- Deprecate `vim.diagnostic.is_disabled`, `vim.diagnostic.disable`
- 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.
This function is used only in the `workspace/configuration` handler,
and does not warrant a public API because of its confusing return types.
The only caller `vim.lsp.handlers["workspace.configuration"]` is also
refactored to use `vim.tbl_get()` instead.
feat(diagnostic): add `vim.diagnostic.count()`
Problem: Getting diagnostic count based on the output of
`vim.diagnostic.get()` might become costly as number of diagnostic
entries grows. This is because it returns a copy of diagnostic cache
entries (so as to not allow users to change them in place).
Getting information about diagnostic count is frequently used in
statusline, so it is important to be as fast as reasonbly possible.
Solution: Add `vim.diagnostic.count()` which computes severity
counts without making copies.
Diagnostic signs should now be configured with vim.diagnostic.config(),
but "legacy" sign definitions should go through the standard deprecation
process to minimize the impact from breaking changes.
The name for_each_child is misleading and caused bugs.
After #25111, #25115, there are no more usages of `for_each_child` in Nvim.
In the future if we want to restore this functionality we can consider a
generalized vim.traverse(node, key, visitor) function.
There is no need for two ways to access all clients of a buffer.
This doesn't add a `vim.deprecate` call yet, as the function is probably
used a lot, but removes it from the documentation and annotates it with
`@deprecated`

- docs: mention --luadev-mod to run with lua runtime files
When changing a lua file in the ./runtime folder, a new contributor
might expect changes to be applied to the built Neovim binary.
`client.messages` could grow unbounded because the default handler only
added new messages, never removing them.
A user either had to consume the messages by calling
`vim.lsp.util.get_progress_messages` or by manually removing them from
`client.messages.progress`. If they didn't do that, using LSP
effectively leaked memory.
To fix this, this deprecates the `messages` property and instead adds a
`progress` ring buffer that only keeps at most 50 messages. In addition
it deprecates `vim.lsp.util.get_progress_messages` in favour of a new
`vim.lsp.status()` and also promotes the `LspProgressUpdate` user
autocmd to a regular autocmd to allow users to pattern match on the
progress kind.
