lsp-inlayhints.nvim VS nvim-cmp

Thanks for the reply! I also wanted to make it work with clangd, but it won't. I stumbled upon this issue. Maybe you have enough knowledge to figure this out, I don't know how to set up this compilation database. I installed clangd using Mason, and configured it via lspconfig basically the same way as the guy in the issue I linked did. Also, I'm using the newest nightly.

I don't understand why inlay hints must be implemented in a rust-specific plugin. https://github.com/lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim exists, has support for inline inlay hints (on a separate branch for now) and works with rust (and should work any language server since inlay hints are part of the spec). Am I missing something?

To use inlay hints in typescript an rust you would need this plugin: https://github.com/lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim It provides example in the readme on how to setup inlay hints for typescript and rust. For now the master brach has "old" inlay hints implementation but there is a branch that implement new one. And of course you will need nightly version for that for now.

But it doesn't seem to work. I also tried lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim with no luck. Any advice of how to properly enable this feature when ocamllsp server is attached? Thank you in advance.

I have inlay hints working in nvim with lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim, no special configuration other than the LspAttach block from their README. The caveat is that your LSP server has to support inlay hints.

The second one might be https://github.com/lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim

you can use nvim-lspcofig for LSP support, mason.nvim for installing LSP servers, linters, formatters and debug adapters. nvim-cmp for completions, luasnip for snippets, null-ls for configuring your formatter and linters , lsp-inlayhints for inlay hints.

Inlay hints are available through rust-tools.nvim, or lsp-inlayhints.nvim.

iirc, inlay hints aren't supported by nvim's built-in LSP, but you can get them with the inlay-hints plugin: https://github.com/lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim (if the LSP for omnisharp also supports them)

Doing a fast scan on the commit history this is probably related to https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-cmp/pull/1689 . Hope it helps.

https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-cmp This is an autocompletion engine https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter This allows NeoVim to install parsing scripts so NeoVim can do things like code highlighting. https://github.com/williamboman/mason.nvim Not strictly necessary, but allows you to access a repo of LSP, install them, and configure them for without you actively messing about in config files. https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig Also not strictly necessary, but vastly simplifies LSP setup. https://github.com/williamboman/mason-lspconfig.nvim This lets the above two plugins talk to each other more easily.

Edit: Solved I only had to do this

toggling sources by Treesitter context

But today I'm a different person, and I'm sure that this is the right decision. I already gave a spiel on the cmp PR, but lemme copy-paste my response for those that weren't following the issue or don't check their GitHub notifications:

EDIT: I was able to reproduce the issue with a simplified nvim-cmp init.vim - posted here: https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-cmp/issues/1728

You need to add nvim-cmp and cmp-nvim-lsp

one thing that always annoyed me is how the autocomplete window behaves. when the space below your current line isn't sufficient it just teleports above the line. i know you can set a custom menu direction but i'd much rather have it pop up in a consistent place that is below the current line. the other behavior i dislike is the sizing. it's as big as the longest function in the list which can make the window enormous, to the point where there's almost no place left for the docs window. there aren't really any docs in the example below but i imagine with the little space that is left it'll get troublesome for more verbose docs such as with rust. i'd like to somehow tell nvim-cmp to always pop up below the current line, no matter how long the list is and possibly limit the horizontal size. is that at all possible? i've looked through the nvim-cmp wiki but haven't found an adequate solution. does this go beyond nvim-cmp?

Update: This isn't currently supported by nvim-cmp (and in fact it has been a feature request for a bit) and so I did my best and opened a PR that implements it :)
