refactoring.nvim VS nvim-lsp-ts-utils

Treesitter is a syntax parser that'll build a tree-like structure to enable anything from excellent syntax highlighting through to complex refactoring. There are so many creative ways you can use Treesitter, from jumping around text objects to commenting sections of code, it's a must-have in my books.

Is there any refactoring plugins for Neovim besides https://github.com/ThePrimeagen/refactoring.nvim?

refactoring.nvim is, that I know of, the closest we have to IDE-like refactoring features such as this, but does not have this feature. It would make C development much nicer imo. Perhaps a feature request there may gain traction.

I'm trying to make a naive implementation of command-preview for refactoring.nvim. Currently, my naive implementation is working (since the changes made to a buffer for previewing are discarded by neovim, I'm executing the plugin regularly in order to preview the changes and when the user submits the command to make the changes).

refactoring.nvim and null-ls.nvim may help

refactoring.nvim is one option. Unfortunately what powers VSCode is the proprietary PyLance and AFAIK there is no way to "Move symbol to file (method will be moved) [and have imports renamed subsequently]".

Just a heads up, I added a lot of Ruby support in ThePrimeagen's Refactoring.nvim plugin some time ago. Covers a lot of what you've created and has support for lots of other languages too

It's a pain to learn. I used the online playground and also read a lot of the queries from popular plugins. I contributed Ruby support to refactoring.nvim which helped me learn a tonne too

You might be able to take the ruby one and make an elixir one. It uses tree-sitter queries which you would need to align up with the elixir, but the syntax is kinda close. See https://github.com/ThePrimeagen/refactoring.nvim/blob/master/lua/refactoring/treesitter/langs/ruby.lua

Wow, cool plugin! Tsserver utils and tsserver extension support these operations https://github.com/jose-elias-alvarez/nvim-lsp-ts-utils https://github.com/jose-elias-alvarez/typescript.nvim

Interesting, I work a lot in TypeScript and with inlay hints from nvim-lsp-ts-utils enabled i do have a lot of virtual text.

I also recommend Comment.nvim along with nvim-ts-context-commentstring for easy commenting in mixed syntax files like vue SFCs. nvim-lsp-ts-utils also has some nice utility functions for typescript development.

That depends on your language server. I know the typescript language server has it. There is a plugin: https://github.com/jose-elias-alvarez/nvim-lsp-ts-utils that I think can help.

Hi, I just found out about this https://github.com/jose-elias-alvarez/nvim-lsp-ts-utils , I might help you.

I would make a feature request on https://github.com/jose-elias-alvarez/nvim-lsp-ts-utils, as this is not likely exposed via the protocol and would need to be implemented in a plugin.

There is one “recipe” for tsserver: https://github.com/jose-elias-alvarez/nvim-lsp-ts-utils/blob/main/lua/nvim-lsp-ts-utils/rename-file.lua

If you're working with React in TypeScript I'd also highly recommend nvim-lsp-ts-utils which adds some nice LSP features, for instance file renaming that automatically updates your module imports.
