nvim-compe VS lsp_signature.nvim

I use https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-compe and https://github.com/simrat39/rust-tools.nvim along with the built in LSP and auto completion works really well. You will want treesitter and all that setup too.

I want to share my code for my migration from nvim-compe (deprecated) to nvim-cmp. Though, I would describe myself as an experienced Vimmer I am not very familiar with the whole Lua thing (although I really appreciate it and hope that Lua's first class citizen can compete with the elisp ecosystem^^).

Wrong, plain and simple. A total misconception.

compe.nvim

For autocomplete/intellisense: https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-compe

But nvim-compe already exists.

completion-nvim OR nvim-compe

Here's some setup idea: - packer for package manager - clangd language server - nvim-lspconfig, required for navigator.lua - navigator.lua for enchanced IDE experience. This is a like adding a sugar to coffee. - completion-nvim OR nvim-compe for enchanching autocomplete & dropdown menu suggestion. - nvim-treesitter for better syntax highlighting. - telescope.nvim for amazing extensible & configurable fuzzy finder, you can also use fzf if you want. - Any custom color scheme you want (preferably one that supports tree sitter, like aurora )

However, many language clients are indeed sensitive to the latency of language servers like https://github.com/ray-x/lsp_signature.nvim and https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-cmp, and I do not have the ability to improve them.

I'm not sure if I don't have any personal info in my dotfiles repo, so I keep it private ^^'. But I had exact same issue as you are describing and I got it to work as expected with ray-x/lsp_signature.nvim.

https://github.com/ray-x/lsp_signature.nvim if you are not using cmp

you might want to try ray-x/lsp_signature.nvim. It gives you that when typing a function. pretty neat if you are not so sure about the params and you can read the documentation.

I have tried to find a solution to this using both noice.nvim and cmp. I ended up using https://github.com/ray-x/lsp_signature.nvim which has this behavior out of the box. Also provides some additional features like showing the signature inline.

Tried poking around, but could make anything work. I even installed ray-x/lsp_signature.nvim by mistake, and kept it because it's pretty good.

nvim-lspconfig, nvim-treesitter, and lsp_signature.nvim using my distribution's package manager (not sure if I need the last one, though). Treesitter works with my minimal config and highlights all code as expected, and for LSP I have the :Lsp... commands so the plugin gets loaded - but I can't find a way to configure it.

the issue on plugin maker's github page and my (essential) config so far )
