Install

Requirements:

• Neovim ≥0.9
• telescope.nvim

Use your favorite package-manager:

{
  'nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim',
  dependencies = { 'rafi/telescope-thesaurus.nvim' },
},

use {
  'rafi/telescope-thesaurus.nvim',
  requires = { 'nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim' }
}

Setup

Supported providers:

• dictionaryapi (dictionaryapi.com) — Default, token needed. (Best results)
• datamuse (datamuse.com)
• freedictionaryapi (dictionaryapi.dev)

Register at dictionaryapi.com and get an API key. Set it as vim.g.dictionary_api_key or DICTIONARY_API_KEY environment variable.

To set a different provider, set options from Telescope config. If you're using lazy.nvim, here's an example:

{
  'nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim',
  opts = {
    extensions = {
      thesaurus = {
        provider = 'datamuse',
      },
    },
  },
}

Usage

• In normal mode, when cursor over a word: :Telescope thesaurus lookup
• Query word manually: :Telescope thesaurus query word=hello

Bind the lookup command to a key-mapping, e.g.:

vim.keymap.set('n', '<localleader>k', '<cmd>Telescope thesaurus lookup<CR>')

Enjoy!
