  • What is a Treesitter Search?

    I came across this term in https://github.com/folke/flash.nvim but couldn't figure out how to use this Search method.
  • A way to go to surrounding treesitter nodes
    1 project | /r/neovim | 18 Aug 2023
    flash.nvim supports jumping to treesitter nodes by labels(just like leap does for searching text). You might want to give that a try and see if it fits your needs.

  • New input method
    2 projects | /r/neovim | 10 Jul 2023
    There actually is one plugin, namely flash.nvim, which does something roughly in that direction for search; as soon as you type a unique string it jumps you to the respective location. https://github.com/folke/flash.nvim

    you can use nvim then, it has shellcheck for diagnostics and formatting, like in vscode :)

  • Linting/formatting and LSP
    1 project | /r/neovim | 8 Sep 2023
    I use a lot of different languages generally and I'm running into issues around formatting. Is there any standard way to use LSP formatting by default and otherwise fallback to specific linter/formatting programs? I believe null-ls is the normal way of dealing with this, but since it's been archived, I'd rather not rely on it.
  • How to setup efm-langserver for pint formatter?
    3 projects | /r/neovim | 13 Jul 2023
    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.

    There is a good answer. I think you know lua and neovim config enough to pick things that you need. If you need a short answer, null-ls is the way.
