Problem: No longer able to show prompt messages with vim.ui_attach().
Solution: Do not execute callback in fast context for prompt message
kinds. These events must be safe to show the incoming message
so the event itself serves to indicate that the message
should be shown immediately.

|
|
--- vim.api.{func}({...}) *vim.api*
|
|
--- Invokes Nvim |API| function {func} with arguments {...}.
|
|
--- Example: call the "nvim_get_current_line()" API function: >lua
|
|
--- print(tostring(vim.api.nvim_get_current_line()))
|
|
---
|
|
--- vim.NIL *vim.NIL*
|
|
--- Special value representing NIL in |RPC| and |v:null| in Vimscript
|
|
--- conversion, and similar cases. Lua `nil` cannot be used as part of a Lua
|
|
--- table representing a Dictionary or Array, because it is treated as
|
|
--- missing: `{"foo", nil}` is the same as `{"foo"}`.
|
|
---
|
|
--- vim.type_idx *vim.type_idx*
|
|
--- Type index for use in |lua-special-tbl|. Specifying one of the values from
|
|
--- |vim.types| allows typing the empty table (it is unclear whether empty Lua
|
|
--- table represents empty list or empty array) and forcing integral numbers
|
|
--- to be |Float|. See |lua-special-tbl| for more details.
|
|
---
|
|
--- vim.val_idx *vim.val_idx*
|
|
--- Value index for tables representing |Float|s. A table representing
|
|
--- floating-point value 1.0 looks like this: >lua
|
|
--- {
|
|
--- [vim.type_idx] = vim.types.float,
|
|
--- [vim.val_idx] = 1.0,
|
|
--- }
|
|
--- < See also |vim.type_idx| and |lua-special-tbl|.
|
|
---
|
|
--- vim.types *vim.types*
|
|
--- Table with possible values for |vim.type_idx|. Contains two sets of
|
|
--- key-value pairs: first maps possible values for |vim.type_idx| to
|
|
--- human-readable strings, second maps human-readable type names to values
|
|
--- for |vim.type_idx|. Currently contains pairs for `float`, `array` and
|
|
--- `dictionary` types.
|
|
---
|
|
--- Note: One must expect that values corresponding to `vim.types.float`,
|
|
--- `vim.types.array` and `vim.types.dictionary` fall under only two following
|
|
--- assumptions:
|
|
--- 1. Value may serve both as a key and as a value in a table. Given the
|
|
--- properties of Lua tables this basically means “value is not `nil`”.
|
|
--- 2. For each value in `vim.types` table `vim.types[vim.types[value]]` is the
|
|
--- same as `value`.
|
|
--- No other restrictions are put on types, and it is not guaranteed that
|
|
--- values corresponding to `vim.types.float`, `vim.types.array` and
|
|
--- `vim.types.dictionary` will not change or that `vim.types` table will only
|
|
--- contain values for these three types.
|
|
---
|
|
--- *log_levels* *vim.log.levels*
|
|
--- Log levels are one of the values defined in `vim.log.levels`:
|
|
---
|
|
--- vim.log.levels.DEBUG
|
|
--- vim.log.levels.ERROR
|
|
--- vim.log.levels.INFO
|
|
--- vim.log.levels.TRACE

--- Attach to |ui-events|, similar to |nvim_ui_attach()| but receive events

--- as Lua callback. Can be used to implement screen elements like

--- popupmenu or message handling in Lua.
|
|
---
|
|
--- {options} should be a dictionary-like table, where `ext_...` options should
|
|
--- be set to true to receive events for the respective external element.

--- Callbacks for `msg_show` events are executed in |api-fast| context unless

--- WARNING: This api is considered experimental. Usability will vary for

--- to further changes and usability improvements. This is expected to be
|
|
--- used to handle messages when setting 'cmdheight' to zero (which is

--- likewise experimental).
