Problem: Can not get all extmarks in a buffer. Properties are missing
from the details array.
Solution: Allow getting all extmarks in a buffer by supplying a -1
"ns_id". Add missing properties to the details array.
Problem: No way to get the actual highlight attributes for a linked
group through |nvim_get_hl()| (not the attributes from the link target).
Solution: Return the actual attributes as well as the link target name.
fix(api): use local LastSet structure in nvim_get_option_info
* nvim_get_option_info is deprecated.
It is always using the global LastSet information as reported in #15232.
* nvim_get_option_info2 is added.
The new function additionally accepts an 'opts' table {scope, buf, win}
allowing to specify the option scope and query local options from another
buffer or window.
Problem: no way of getting all highlight group definitions in a namespace.
Solution: add `nvim_get_hl()`, deprecate `nvim_get_hl_by_name()` and `nvim_get_hl_by_id()`.
Problem:
The function name `vim.pretty_print`:
1. is verbose, which partially defeats its purpose as sugar
2. does not draw from existing precedent or any sort of convention
(except external projects like penlight or python?), which reduces
discoverability, and degrades signaling about best practices.
Solution:
- Rename to `vim.print`.
- Change the behavior so that
1. strings are printed without quotes
2. each arg is printed on its own line
3. tables are indented with 2 instead of 4 spaces
- Example:
:lua ='a', 'b', 42, {a=3}
a
b
42
{
a = 3
}
Comparison of alternatives:
- `vim.print`:
- pro: consistent with Lua's `print()`
- pro: aligns with potential `nvim_print` API function which will
replace nvim_echo, nvim_notify, etc.
- con: behaves differently than Lua's `print()`, slightly misleading?
- `vim.echo`:
- pro: `:echo` has similar "pretty print" behavior.
- con: inconsistent with Lua idioms.
- `vim.p`:
- pro: very short, fits with `vim.o`, etc.
- con: not as discoverable as "echo"
- con: less opportunity for `local p = vim.p` because of potential shadowing.
When combining attributes use the one that takes priority.
For :highlight command use the last one specified.
For API use a hard-coded order same as the order in docs.
Problem:
The Lua-API bridge allows Dict params to be empty Lua (list) tables at
the function-signature level. But not for _nested_ Dicts, because they
are not modeled:
fae7540732/src/nvim/api/keysets.lua (L184)
Some API functions like nvim_cmd check for kObjectTypeDictionary and
don't handle the case of empty Lua tables (treated as "Array").
Solution:
Introduce VALIDATE_T_DICT and use it in places where
kObjectTypeDictionary was being checked directly.
fixes#21005
Problem:
Validation messages are not consistently formatted.
- Parameter names sometimes are NOT quoted.
- Descriptive names (non-parameters) sometimes ARE quoted.
Solution:
Always quote the `name` value passed to a VALIDATE macro _unless_ the
value has whitespace.
Problem:
- API validation involves too much boilerplate.
- API validation errors are not consistently worded.
Solution:
Introduce some macros. Currently these are clumsy, but they at least
help with consistency and avoid some nesting.
The original motivation for this change came from developping
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/22159, which will require adding
more autocommand creation to Neovim's startup sequence.
This change requires lightly editing a test that expected no autocommand
to have been created from lua.
Problem: Allocated click function memory is lost due to
`nvim_eval_statusline()` not passing in a `StlClickRecord`.
Solution: Do not allocate click function memory if `tabtab == NULL`.
Resolve#21764, supersede #21842.
Problem:
Tests that _intentionally_ fail certain conditions cause noise in

E970: Failed to initialize builtin lua modules
Solution:
- Log to a private $NVIM_LOG_FILE in tests that intentionally fail and
cause ERR log messages.
- Assert that the expected messages are actually logged.
Extend the capabilities of is_os to detect more platforms such as
freebsd and openbsd. Also remove `iswin()` helper function as it can be
replaced by `is_os("win")`.
This is essentially a convenience wrapper around the `pending()`
function, similar to `skip_fragile()` but more general-purpose.
Also remove `pending_win32` function as it can be replaced by
`skip(iswin())`.
Adds a `name` key to the opts dict passed to Lua command callbacks
created using `nvim_create_user_command()`. This is useful for when
multiple commands use the same callback.
Note that this kind of behavior is not as strange as one might think,
even some internal Neovim commands reuse the same internal C function,
differing their behavior by checking the command name. `substitute`,
`smagic` and `snomagic` are examples of that.
This will also be useful for generalized Lua command preview functions
that can preview a wide range of commands, in which case knowing the
command name is necessary for the preview function to actually be able
to execute the command that it's supposed to preview.
I don't think using an integer as a NUL-terminated string can work on
big-endian systems, at least.
This is also not tested. Add a test.
Also fix a mistake in the docs of nvim_parse_cmd.
dispatch.sr.ht is being deprecated, meaning that using sourcehut CI
won't be possible (see https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/19609).
Since Github Actions doesn't provide any BSD runners an external service
is required and Cirrus CI seems like a good replacement for sourcehut.
Initially experimented with using FreeBSD and OpenBSD virtual machines
in GitHub Actions, but Cirrus has been a much better fit with better
performance, logs and overall experience.
Failing tests are automatically skipped on FreeBSD regardless if it's on
CI or not. Ideally these tests should only be skipped in CI with the
help of `isCI` helper function. Unfortunately, the tests don't recognize
the environment variable CIRRUS_CI even if it's set manually. This
workaround is good enough for the time being, but we might want to only
skip tests when using the CI (or even better, fix the failing tests).
Closes: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/19609
Now nvim_parse_cmd and nvim_create_user_command use a "tab" value which
is the same as the number passed before :tab modifier instead of the
number plus 1, and "tab" value is -1 if :tab modifier is not used.
This introduces the following breaking changes:
- nvim_get_keymap now always returns a LuaRef object as "callback" for a
Lua mapping regardless of how it is called. The LuaRef object can be
called from Lua and Vim script, but is lost over RPC.
- maparg() now returns a Funcref instead of a ref number as "callback"
for a Lua mapping. The Funcref can be called from Lua and Vim script,
but is lost over RPC.
This may also make nvim_get_keymap faster, but make maparg() slower.
Problem: A command defined with `nargs="?"` returns `fargs={""}` to
a Lua callback when executed with no arguments, which is inconsistent
with how`nargs="*"` behaves.
Solution: Pass `fargs={}` for no argument with `nargs="?"` as well.
Problem: Can't use :popup for a menu in the terminal. (Wei Zhang)
Solution: Make :popup work in the terminal. Also fix that entries were
included that don't work in the current state.

Problem:
- Since c57f6b28d7#8519, sockets are created in ~/.local/… but XDG
spec says: "XDG_RUNTIME_DIR: Must be on the local filesystem", which
implies that XDG_STATE_DIR is potentially non-local.
- Not easy to inspect Nvim-created temp files (for debugging etc).
Solution:
- Store sockets in stdpath('run') ($XDG_RUNTIME_DIR).
- Establish "/tmp/nvim.user/" as the tempdir root shared by all Nvims.
- Make ok() actually useful.
- Introduce assert_nolog().

- 831fa45ad8 is related but this doesn't regress that
- The `cterm_normal_fg_color != ae.cterm_fg_color` comparison is originally
carried from patch to patch starting all the way back in 29bc6dfabd where it
was avoiding setting a HL attr. But `hlattrs2dict()` now is just
informational.
Problem:
1. Log messages (especially in CI) are hard to correlate with tests.
2. Since b353a5c05f#11886, dumplog() prints the logs next to test
failures. This is noisy and gets in the way of the test results.
Solution:
1. Associate an incrementing id with each test and include it in log
messages.
- FUTURE: add v:name so Nvim instances can be formally "named"?
2. Mention "child" in log messages if the current Nvim is a child (based
on the presence of $NVIM).

Also avoid referring to mappings as "keymaps" in commands and docs.
*map_empty_rhs* *map-empty-rhs*
You can create an empty {rhs} by typing nothing after a single CTRL-V (you
have to type CTRL-V two times). Unfortunately, you cannot do this in a vimrc
file.
Adds an `smods` key to `nvim_create_user_command` Lua command callbacks,
which has command modifiers but in a structured format. This removes the
need to manually parse command modifiers. It also reduces friction in
using `nvim_cmd` inside a Lua command callback.
Remove the command('qall!') from mksession_spec.lua because it prevents
helpers.rmdir() from retrying.
Allow extra trailing spaces when matching terminal lines.
Adds the API function `nvim_cmd` which allows executing an Ex-command through a Dictionary which can have the same values as the return value of `nvim_parse_cmd()`. This makes it much easier to do things like passing arguments with a space to commands that otherwise may not allow it, or to make commands interpret certain characters literally when they otherwise would not.
It seems range and count can be used together in commands. This PR fixes
the behavior of `nvim_parse_cmd` for those cases by removing the mutual
exclusivity of "range" and "count". It also removes range line number
validation for `nvim_parse_cmd` as it's not its job to validate the
command.
Changes the `range` value in `nvim_parse_cmd` into an array to describe
range information more concisely. Also makes `range` and `count` be
mutually exclusive by making count `-1` when command takes a range
instead of a count. Additionally corrects the behavior of `count` for
built-in commands by making the default count `0`.
Adds range, count and reg to the return values of nvim_parse_cmd. Also makes
line1 and line2 be -1 if the command does not take a range. Also moves
nvim_parse_cmd to vimscript.c because it fits better there.
Problem: Cannot map <C-H> when modifyOtherKeys is enabled.
Solution: Add the <C-H> mapping twice, both with modifier and as 0x08. Use
only the first one when modifyOtherKeys has been detected.
459fd785e4
Add REPTERM_NO_SPECIAL instead of REPTERM_SPECIAL because the meaning of
"special" is different between Vim and Nvim.
Omit seenModifyOtherKeys as Nvim supports attaching multiple UIs.
Omit tests as they send terminal codes.
Keep the behavior of API functions.
Skip runs of whitespace and do not include `\` characters when
followed by another `\` or whitespace. This matches the behavior
of <f-args> when used with `:command`.
helpers.source() was a hack to work around the lack of anonymous
:source. Its "create tempfile" behavior is not a required part of most
tests that use it.
Some tests still need the old "create tempfile" behavior either because
they test SID behavior, or because of missing nvim_exec features: #16071

* refactor: add two maps for fast lookups
* fix: delete augroup info from id->name map
When in "stupid_legacy_mode", the value in name->id map would be updated
to `AUGROUP_DELETED`, but the entry would still remain in id->name. This
would create a problem in `augroup_name` function which would return the
name of the augroup instead of `--DELETED--`.
The id->name map is only used for fast loopup in `augroup_name` function
so there's no point in keeping the entry of deleted augroup in it.

This enables retrieving autocommands defined in the given buffers. Under
the hood this simply translates the buffer numbers into '<buffer=%d>'
patterns.
This commit finishes support for colored and styled underlines adding
`CSI 4 : [2,4,5] m` support providing double, dashed, and dotted
underlines
Fixes#17362.
`:verbose` didn't work properly with lua configs (For example:
options or keymaps are set from lua, just say that they were set
from lua, doesn't say where they were set at.
This fixes that issue. Now `:verbose` will provide filename and line no
when option/keymap is set from lua.
Changes:
- compiles lua/vim/keymap.lua as vim/keymap.lua
- When souring a lua file current_sctx.sc_sid is set to SID_LUA
- Moved finding scripts SID out of `do_source()` to `get_current_script_id()`.
So it can be reused for lua files.
- Added new function `nlua_get_sctx` that extracts current lua scripts
name and line no with debug library. And creates a sctx for it.
NOTE: This function ignores C functions and blacklist which
currently contains only vim/_meta.lua so vim.o/opt wrappers aren't
targeted.
- Added function `nlua_set_sctx` that changes provided sctx to current
lua scripts sctx if a lua file is being executed.
- Added tests in tests/functional/lua/verbose_spec.lua
- add primary support for additional types (:autocmd, :function, :syntax) to lua verbose
Note: These can't yet be directly set from lua but once that's possible
:verbose should work for them hopefully :D
- add :verbose support for nvim_exec & nvim_command within lua
Currently auto commands/commands/functions ... can only be defined
by nvim_exec/nvim_command this adds support for them. Means if those
Are defined within lua with vim.cmd/nvim_exec :verbose will show their
location . Though note it'll show the line no on which nvim_exec call was made.
Works similar to ex <f-args>. It only splits the arguments if the
command has more than one posible argument. In cases were the command
can only have 1 argument opts.fargs = { opts.args }
nvim_buf_set_text does not handle negative row numbers correctly: for
example,
nvim_buf_set_text(0, -2, 0, -1, 20, {"Hello", "world"})
should replace the 2nd to last line in the buffer with "Hello" and the
first 20 characters of the last line with "world". Instead, it reports
"start_row out of bounds". This happens because when negative line
numbers are used, they are incremented by one additional number to make
the non-negative line numbers end-exclusive. However, the line numbers
for nvim_buf_set_text should be end-inclusive.
In #15181 we handled this for nvim_buf_get_text by adding a new
parameter to `normalize_index`. We can solve the problem with
nvim_buf_set_text by simply availing ourselves of this new argument.
This is a breaking change, but makes the semantics of negative line
numbers much clearer and more obvious (as well as matching
nvim_buf_get_text).
BREAKING CHANGE: Existing usages of nvim_buf_set_text that use negative
line numbers will be off-by-one.
nvim_buf_get_text is the mirror of nvim_buf_set_text. It differs from
nvim_buf_get_lines in that it allows retrieving only portions of lines.
While this can typically be done easily enough by API clients,
implementing this function provides symmetry between the get/set
text/lines APIs, and also provides a nice convenience that saves API
clients the work of having to slice the result of nvim_buf_get_lines
themselves.
Problem: when accessing `nvim_set_hl` from Lua, empty tables are converted
to empty lists, not dictionaries, resulting in an error for
:lua vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "Comment", { cterm = {} })
Workaround: add an empty array as a special case when checking
`dict->cterm.type` and just set `cterm_mask_provided`.
(Proper solution: handle this in `gen_api_dispatch.lua`.)
This commit fixes#9358, where emitting multiple messages with 'echo' or
a single one with 'echom' or 'echoerr' would result in a press-enter
prompt that couldn't be dismissed by pressing enter.
This requires adapting a few tests to spawn a UI before testing whether
press-enter prompts are blocking.
It also fixes#11718, as when combined with #15910 it enables making
sure that neovim never blocks and emits messages on startup.
Problem: "verbose set efm" reports the location of the :compiler command.

This includes a partial port of Vim patch 8.2.2569 and some changes to
nvim_eval_statusline() to allow a multibyte fillchar. Literally every
line of C code touched by that patch has been refactored in Nvim, and
that patch contains some irrelevant foldcolumn tests I'm not sure how to
port (as Nvim's foldcolumn behavior has diverged from Vim's).
Behavioral changes:
1. Added support for lua function in keymaps in
--------------------------------------------
- nvim_set_keymap
Can set lua function as keymap rhs like following:
```lua
vim.api.nvim_{buf_}set_keymap('n', '<leader>lr', '', {callback = vim.lsp.buf.references})
```
Note: lua function can only be set from lua . If api function being
called from viml or over rpc this option isn't available.
- nvim_{buf_}get_keymap
When called from lua, lua function is returned is `callback` key .
But in other cases callback contains number of the function ref.
- :umap, nvim_del_keymap & nvim_buf_del_keymap clears lua keymaps correctly.
- :map commands for displaing rhs .
For lua keymaps rhs is displayed as <Lua function ref_no>
Note: lua keymap cannot be set through viml command / functions.
- mapargs()
When dict is false it returns string in `<Lua function ref_no>`
format (same format as :map commands).
When dict is true it returns ref_no number in `callback` key.
- mapcheck()
returns string in `<Lua function ref_no>` format (same format as :map commands).
2. Added support for keymap description
---------------------------------------
- nvim_{buf_}set_keymap: added `desc` option in opts table .
```lua
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<leader>w', '<cmd>w<cr>', {desc='Save current file'})
```
- nvim_{buf_}get_keymap: contains `desc` in returned list.
- commands like `:nmap <leader>w` will show description in a new line below rhs.
- `maparg()` return dict contains `desc`.
nvim_buf_get_extmark uses "end_row" rather than "end_line" in its
'details' dict, which means callers must modify the key names if they
want to re-use the information. Change the parameter name in
nvim_buf_set_extmark to "end_row" and use "end_line" as an alias
to make this more consistent.
This is already skipped in all CI environments, so it should also be
skipped in environments that don't like fragile tests. Since there's no
convenient way to express these concisely, add the explicit fragile
skip.
"works with &opt" is flaky; now it always fails after #15999 for some reason.
This test was skipped in #10773 due to previous flakiness, but after the switch away from appveyor
the check no longer works. Just skip for any CI running the MSVC_32 job.
For anonymous scripts, defer the creation of script items until an attempt to access a script-local
variable is made. This dramatically reduces the number of script items created when using lots of
vim.cmd and nvim_exec especially.
This will mean <SID> usage fails until a script-local variable access is first made.
Based on #13143 (and #11507) with changes:
- Omit script_type_E. Use sn_name == NULL to determine anon items.
- Keep SID_STR. Used by anon :source for .lua files (no item).
- Show SID in get_scriptname output (:verbose set).
- Factor item creation into new_script_item.
- Leave sc_seq = 0 (anon scripts don't re-use the same item when re-sourced).
- Add tests for anon :source.

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.
Do not copy a lot of lua strings (dict keys) to just strequal() them
Just compare them directly to a dedicated hash function.

Problem:
This crashes Nvim:
tabedit
call nvim_win_set_option(1000, 'statusline', 'status')
split
wincmd J
wincmd j
Solution:
- Change `no_display` parameter value to be the same as in matching
`restore_win_noblock` call. In case of different values `topframe`
isn't restored to `curtab->tp_topframe`.
- Call `restore_win_noblock` if `switch_win_noblock` returns `FAIL`
(`switch_win` must always have matching `restore_win`)
- Change `switch_win`/`restore_win` to `_noblock` versions to allow
autocommands.

This option, when set, stops nvim_open_win() from potentially firing
buffer-related autocmd events
(BufEnter, BufLeave and BufWinEnter in the case of nvim_open_win()).
Iterating over PARAM_COUNT is wrong as PARAM_COUNT also counts the last
element of the options array, which has a NULL fullname in order to
signal the end of the array.
