Using node ipc

    "module": "/path/to/vim-language-server/bin/index.js",
    "args": ["--node-ipc"],
    "initializationOptions": {
      "isNeovim": true, // is neovim, default false
      "iskeyword": "@,48-57,_,192-255,-#", // vim iskeyword option
      "vimruntime": "", // $VIMRUNTIME option
      "runtimepath": "",   // vim runtime path separate by `,`
      "diagnostic": {
        "enable": true
      },
      "indexes": {
        "runtimepath": true,      // if index runtimepath's vim files this will effect the suggest
        "gap": 100,               // index time gap between next file
        "count": 3,               // count of files index at the same time
        "projectRootPatterns" : ["strange-root-pattern", ".git", "autoload", "plugin"] // Names of files used as the mark of project root. If empty, the default value [".git", "autoload", "plugin"] will be used
      },
      "suggest": {
        "fromVimruntime": true,   // completionItems from vimruntime's vim files
        "fromRuntimepath": false  // completionItems from runtimepath's vim files, if this is true that fromVimruntime is true
      }
    },
    "filetypes": [ "vim" ],
  }
}

Using stdio

"languageserver": {
  "vimls": {
    "command": "vim-language-server",
    "args": ["--stdio"],
    "initializationOptions": {
      "isNeovim": true, // is neovim, default false
      "iskeyword": "@,48-57,_,192-255,-#", // vim iskeyword option
      "vimruntime": "",                    // $VIMRUNTIME option
      "runtimepath": "",                   // vim runtime path separate by `,`
      "diagnostic": {
        "enable": true
      },
      "indexes": {
        "runtimepath": true,      // if index runtimepath's vim files this will effect the suggest
        "gap": 100,               // index time gap between next file
        "count": 3,               // count of files index at the same time
        "projectRootPatterns" : ["strange-root-pattern", ".git", "autoload", "plugin"] // Names of files used as the mark of project root. If empty, the default value [".git", "autoload", "plugin"] will be used
      },
      "suggest": {
        "fromVimruntime": true,   // completionItems from vimruntime's vim files
        "fromRuntimepath": false  // completionItems from runtimepath's vim files, if this is true that fromVimruntime is true
      }
    },
    "filetypes": [ "vim" ]
  }
}

Note:

if you set isNeovim: true, command like fixdel in vimrc which neovim does not support will report error.
if you want to speed up index, change gap to smaller and count to greater, this will cause high CPU usage for some time
if you don't want to index vim's runtimepath files, set runtimepath to false and you will not get any suggest from those files.
