syntastic VS nvim-treesitter

2) Syntax check https://github.com/vim-syntastic/syntastic 3) File navigation https://github.com/preservim/nerdtree 4) Autocomplete There are many autocomplete extensions. I haven't found one that I feel comfortable to recommend. Another way is to create a txt file with all the key words and lines in the languages you use, make an autocommand that adds the txt file to the buffer, and then use ctrl-n or ctrl-p to autocomplete. You can also use ctrl-x-ctrl-l to autocmplete entire lines. 5) Running code Add commands in your .vmrc to run the current file as a a whatever file. I use :J to run java files, :P to run python files, :C to run c files and so on. For example, this is my command to run a java file: command J execute "!java %:t"

I dropped into the Syntastic plugin repo a few minutes ago to check the documentation and noticed that the first section in the README is a deprecation notice. The commit message says "add deprecation note" and is dated 26 days ago.

I typically code in the terminal with vim + idf.py and I've been working heavily with esp-idf for a while now. Does anyone have any recommendations for some c-style linters and/or formatters? I typically use syntastic to do code linting but I haven't been able to find a syntax checker that doesn't have quirks with esp-idf code.

Syntastic - it appears they didnt actually support neovim to begin with, so I expect it will be left behind

I use https://ycm-core.github.io/YouCompleteMe/ for autocomplete and https://github.com/vim-syntastic/syntastic for syntax changing as well. For my python projects this was enough to move away from VS Code. There are other plugins I use to help me code with python with vim but this should answer most of your question.

I want to create a new vim syntax checker for a new programming language that is not used widely, first i tried to read the code of the follwing plugins neomake, syntastic , and Ale in order to understand how i can build my own syntax checker plugin but i could not really get it so i just want know what is the best and easy way to create syntax checker plugin for vim

My vim looks like most peoples, I guess. I have a few plugins to make things pretty, eg. LightLine and IndentGuides, and I use Syntastic for linting. I tried Ale but found it too annoying in practice.

I suggest looking for blog posts about this, you're gunnuh wanna pick out a plugin manager and stuff. It's kind of like a package manager for neovim. You can install everything manually but usually you manually install a plugin manager and it gives you commands to manage the rest of your plugins.

These two plugins are the bare minimum in my view.

https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter

Treesitter gives you much better syntax highlighting based on a parser for a given language.

https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig

This plugin helps you connect to a given language LSP quickly with sensible defaults. You more or less pick your language from here and copy paste a snippet, and then install the relevant LSP:

https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/blob/master/doc/ser...

For Python you'll want pylsp. For JavaScript it will depend on what frontend framework you're using, I probably can't help you there.

pylsp itself takes some plugins and you'll probably want them. https://github.com/python-lsp/python-lsp-server

Best of luck! Happy hacking.

It was changed in https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter/commit/78b54eb

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.

Change the compiler to use 'llvm' and install visual studio build tools command line stuff - at least that is what worked for me without problems. If you are using c++ then I would assume you have visual studio installed already. If you need more info follow the treesitter windows support

After a lot of time spent yesterday I took a fresh look today and then thought to myself - what if this is what TS does by design? A few clicks later and I found this https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter/issues/1327

I've followed the official guide for nvim-treesitter support on Windows, but I'm having problems making it work. I keep getting a compilation error for any parser I try to install using TSInstall. If instead I use TSInstallSync I don't get errors but the parser is not correctly installed. My setup uses lazyvim and I installed LLVM using winget to have a C compiler.

I have read that gcc in windows doesn't always provide the necessary support for treesitter. I have seen ppl prefer clang over gcc in Windows. Please see also Windows support in treesitter's repo. Unfortunately I cannot help further as I don't use Windows for coding, but hope you can deduce something to solve your problem from the above link (if you haven't already read through it).
