vim-lsp

Async Language Server Protocol plugin for vim8 and neovim.

Installing

Install vim-plug and then:

Plug 'prabirshrestha/vim-lsp'

Performance

Certain bottlenecks in Vim script have been implemented in lua. If you would like to take advantage of these performance gains use vim compiled with lua or neovim v0.4.0+

Registering servers

if executable('pylsp')
    " pip install python-lsp-server
    au User lsp_setup call lsp#register_server({
        \ 'name': 'pylsp',
        \ 'cmd': {server_info->['pylsp']},
        \ 'allowlist': ['python'],
        \ })
endif

function! s:on_lsp_buffer_enabled() abort
    setlocal omnifunc=lsp#complete
    setlocal signcolumn=yes
    if exists('+tagfunc') | setlocal tagfunc=lsp#tagfunc | endif
    nmap <buffer> gd <plug>(lsp-definition)
    nmap <buffer> gs <plug>(lsp-document-symbol-search)
    nmap <buffer> gS <plug>(lsp-workspace-symbol-search)

    nnoremap <buffer> <expr><c-f> lsp#scroll(+4)
    nnoremap <buffer> <expr><c-d> lsp#scroll(-4)

    let g:lsp_format_sync_timeout = 1000
    autocmd! BufWritePre *.rs,*.go call execute('LspDocumentFormatSync')
    
    " refer to doc to add more commands
endfunction

augroup lsp_install
    au!
    " call s:on_lsp_buffer_enabled only for languages that has the server registered.
    autocmd User lsp_buffer_enabled call s:on_lsp_buffer_enabled()
augroup END

Refer to vim-lsp-settings on how to easily setup language servers using vim-lsp automatically.

Plug 'prabirshrestha/vim-lsp'
Plug 'mattn/vim-lsp-settings'

auto-complete

Refer to docs on configuring omnifunc or asyncomplete.vim.

Snippets

vim-lsp does not support snippets by default. If you want snippet integration, you will first have to install a third-party snippet plugin and a plugin that integrates it in vim-lsp. At the moment, you have following options:

vim-vsnip together with vim-vsnip-integ
UltiSnips together with vim-lsp-ultisnips
neosnippet.vim together with vim-lsp-neosnippet

For more information, refer to the readme and documentation of the respective plugins.

Folding

You can let the language server automatically handle folding for you. To enable this, you have to set 'foldmethod', 'foldexpr' and (optionally) 'foldtext':

set foldmethod=expr
  \ foldexpr=lsp#ui#vim#folding#foldexpr()
  \ foldtext=lsp#ui#vim#folding#foldtext()

If you would like to disable folding globally, you can add this to your configuration:

let g:lsp_fold_enabled = 0

Also see :h vim-lsp-folding.

Semantic highlighting

vim-lsp supports the unofficial extension to the LSP protocol for semantic highlighting (https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-languageserver-node/pull/367). This feature requires Neovim highlights, or Vim with the textprop feature enabled. You will also need to link language server semantic scopes to Vim highlight groups. Refer to :h vim-lsp-semantic for more info.

Supported commands

Note:

Some servers may only support partial commands.
While it is possible to register multiple servers for the same filetype, some commands will pick only the first server that supports it. For example, it doesn't make sense for rename and format commands to be sent to multiple servers.

Command	Description
`:LspAddTreeCallHierarchyIncoming`	Find incoming call hierarchy for the symbol under cursor, but add the result to the current list
`:LspCallHierarchyIncoming`	Find incoming call hierarchy for the symbol under cursor

`:LspCodeLens`	Gets a list of possible commands that can be executed on the current document
`:LspDeclaration`	Go to the declaration of the word under the cursor, and open in the current window
`:LspDefinition`	Go to the definition of the word under the cursor, and open in the current window
`:LspDocumentDiagnostics`	Get current document diagnostics information
`:LspDocumentFormat`	Format entire document
`:LspDocumentRangeFormat`	Format document selection
`:LspDocumentSymbol`	Show document symbols
`:LspHover`	Show hover information
`:LspImplementation`	Show implementation of interface in the current window
`:LspNextDiagnostic`	jump to next diagnostic (all of error, warning, information, hint)
`:LspNextError`	jump to next error
`:LspNextReference`	jump to next reference to the symbol under cursor
`:LspNextWarning`	jump to next warning
`:LspPeekDeclaration`	Go to the declaration of the word under the cursor, but open in preview window

`:LspPreviousDiagnostic`	jump to previous diagnostic (all of error, warning, information, hint)
`:LspPreviousError`	jump to previous error
`:LspPreviousReference`	jump to previous reference to the symbol under cursor
`:LspPreviousWarning`	jump to previous warning
`:LspReferences`	Find references
`:LspRename`	Rename symbol
`:LspStatus`	Show the status of the language server
`:LspTypeDefinition`	Go to the type definition of the word under the cursor, and open in the current window
`:LspTypeHierarchy`	View type hierarchy of the symbol under the cursor
`:LspWorkspaceSymbol`	Search/Show workspace symbol

Diagnostics

Document diagnostics (e.g. warnings, errors) are enabled by default, but if you preferred to turn them off and use other plugins instead (like Neomake or ALE, set g:lsp_diagnostics_enabled to 0:

let g:lsp_diagnostics_enabled = 0         " disable diagnostics support

Highlight references

Highlight references to the symbol under the cursor (enabled by default). You can disable it by adding

let g:lsp_document_highlight_enabled = 0

to your configuration.

To change the style of the highlighting, you can set or link the lspReference highlight group, e.g.:

highlight lspReference ctermfg=red guifg=red ctermbg=green guibg=green

Debugging

In order to enable file logging set g:lsp_log_file.

let g:lsp_log_verbose = 1
let g:lsp_log_file = expand('~/vim-lsp.log')

" for asyncomplete.vim log
let g:asyncomplete_log_file = expand('~/asyncomplete.log')

You can get detailed status on your servers using :CheckHealth with a plugin on vim:

if !has('nvim') | Plug 'rhysd/vim-healthcheck' | endif
CheckHealth

Tests

vim-themis is used for testing. To run integration tests gopls executable must be in path.
