  • Let's write an Emacs treesitter major mode

    That was interesting, thanks for pointing it out

    I was tremendously sad to see that the Typescript Language Server wasn't owned by Microsoft <https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/impleme...>, since if there was any sanity in the world a spec bump would travel with a reference implementation showing how they envision such a thing being used

    But, I found that the Typescript Language Server that they did list does indeed have a semantic-tokens module in it, although it's much shorter than I would have expected from reading that section in the spec: https://github.com/typescript-language-server/typescript-lan...

  • Struggling with javascript completion with LSP
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 15 Jun 2023
    Crossposting from github, because the response rate there has been pretty slow: https://github.com/typescript-language-server/typescript-language-server/discussions/730
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 15 Jun 2023
    Depending on the language server version, you may be running into https://github.com/typescript-language-server/typescript-language-server/issues/631. I temporarily fixed it for me by simply sticking with an old enough server build, though judging by the latest typescript-language-server commits a very recent build from master should also work
  • There's another typescript LSP that wraps the official VSCode typescript extension and has almost the same features - vtsls
    6 projects | /r/neovim | 28 Apr 2023
    Before, I was using typescript-language-server as it is LSP compliant but it was slow and lacks the features of what VSCode's implementation has, like extracting functions, constants, types into interfaces or alias and single imports. Auto-completion was also not very predictive as sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. For instance, I was having trouble getting it to auto-complete common attributes like className or href in JSX projects. It could be that I may be doing something wrong but didn't find any solution on how to get it properly working.
  • What could cause my LSP to be so slow and sluggish? Takes anywhere from 1 to 8 seconds to show auto-completion results and hide/ unhide errors.
    7 projects | /r/neovim | 13 Apr 2023
    Then this is highly likely issue of typescript-language-server. You might consider opening an issue for it.
  • PSA: Configuring LSP w/o nvim-lspconfig is Simple!
    6 projects | /r/neovim | 11 Apr 2023
    This is not the case! After reading the LSP help pages (:help lsp), I installed and configured two language servers: Typescript Language Server for JavaScript and Pyright for Python. Neovim has fantastic defaults, so things like tags, omnicompletion, and semantic highlighting (New in 0.9) are enabled and configured by default as long as your language server supports them. You can see my configuration below.

  • How to access tsserver code actions?

    Open feature request to typescript-language-server or check corresponding implementaion in vscode and make a pr for it.
  • How do I achieve JavaScript code completition with nvim-cmp and Mason ?
    5 projects | /r/neovim | 22 Feb 2023
    Use mason to install tsserver, or directly install it on your computer following typescript-language-server. Note that your javascript's ls is powered by tsserver not eslint since eslint is a linter, not a ls.
