efm-langserver VS asynctasks.vim

Usually another program is used to lint/format code. Basic way is to just run them as a shell command or in another terminal and reload the file, but you can also hook it up to lsp. For example Javascript/Typescript projects use eslint and prettier. Runing `npx prettier` will format the files according to default rules. This is fine for every once in a while or a pre-commit hook. I think you are looking to have it integrated in nvim. Most formatters don't have a language server so you can connect them to nvim lsp with a general language server like: https://github.com/mattn/efm-langserver

I just started using helix and I absolutely love it 🔥 But I faced a really weird problem with using efm-langserver in helix.

I installed efm-langserver with Homebrew. Then, after my `mason_lspconfig` setup I tried adding this:

I've been using pint for formatting php files with null-ls.nvim. Few days ago null-ls.nvim has announced that the plugin will be archived in few months so I started migrating all my formatters and linter from null-ls to efm-langserver. I got other things such as prettier, black, isort, mypy, etc. working but can't get pint to work with php files: If I run pint via efm-langserver, everything is deleted from the buffer, and the saved file is formatted separately. How do I setup efm-langserver correctly to work with pint? Below is my config.yml for pint currently. yaml tools: pint: &pint format-command: "pint --no-interaction --quiet ${INPUT}" format-stdin: false languages: php: - <<: *pint Thank you.

It seems to be a recurring issue: https://github.com/mattn/efm-langserver/issues/181 https://github.com/mattn/efm-langserver/issues/241

I use the LSP if it supports formatting. I supplement that with efm-langserver which interfaces with CLI formatters and linters. It works well, similar to null-ls as I understand it.

As far as I know, the only solution (other than getting formatting directly from a LSP server) is to use EFM (https://github.com/mattn/efm-langserver), which implements the tricky logic of figuring out how to only update the changed text.

I'm currently using skywind3000/asynctasks.vim to build and run my project.

u/Fantastic_Cow7272 is right, it's a file specific to asynctasks.vim. It's supposed to be the same syntax as Vim's errorformat, but apparently there are some subtle differences.

Recently I've installed asynctasks.vim, and with it, I'm trying to :

For running the file there are several tools. I have been using asynctasks.vim which is built on top of asyncrun.vim which I usually use to open a tmux pane and run the code/test. I've been looking at switching to overseer.nvim but haven't yet. I use justfiles to define all of my tasks.

For big projects I use asynctasks so that it opens a floating terminal and runs the given commmand.ie.When I press r,it runs cmake --build build --target main -j 9 && build/bin/mainIt imitates vscode's task system, so that a task.ini file may contain something like.

Also AsyncRun and AsyncTasks worth a mention.
