vim-jumpsuite VS python-lsp-server

Oh, you're in luck because I've actually written this exact plugin, it's called vim-jumpsuite. It is personally one of my special weapons that's becoming completely indispensable for me.

vim-jumpsuite: parses python tracebacks and identifies the most "interesting" part of the stack to create a jump list; despite vim being in the name, the python part of the plug-in is usable with any editors that supports parsing grep/quickfix-style output

vim-jumpsuite for creating a quickfix/loclist jumps out of unittest tracebacks

vim-test with lieryan/vim-jumpsuite

For more elaborate cases, I wrote a plugin that summarises python traceback into the quickfix list. vim-jumpsuite is designed to be used when writing unittest/pytest; for each failing test, it'll try to pick the three most important locations that you'll want to jump to. You can also configure certain files/functions to never be picked by vim-jumpsuite.

Plug: one of the most valuable plugin for me are the vim plugin that I wrote myself: lieryan/vim-jumpsuite. It's a plugin to quickly jump to "interesting" line of code from your test suite by converting unittest reports to a Quickfix jumplist. The plugin uses some customizable heuristics to find the lines from tracebacks that are most likely to be most useful to your code.

Python LSP Server works great, is easier to install and even offers some optional extensions.

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.

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

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:

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.

I came at the tail end of https://github.com/python-lsp/python-lsp-server/issues/195. The possibility of me sponsoring a fix came up, and I’m on board with it, but the other contributor never replied.

I haven't used pylint, but I find mypy with python-lsp-server extremely easy to use with nvim-lspconfig, especially on Arch linux.

Whatever you use, make sure you have syntax highlighting, completion and error checking! I'm using pylsp and shellcheck in emacs, but those or similar options should work in any IDE, replacing much of what made IDEs unique in former times.

Perhaps unrelated, from my experience, pylsp is better than pyright, see https://github.com/python-lsp/python-lsp-server/.

I am finally starting to use lsp for python development. I am using pylsp as LS.

I'm talking about this python LSP server (the command is pylsp that's why).

Another example, you can setup python-lsp-server with nvim-lspconfig (lsp server also needs to be installed globally or in virtualenv) and they have a plugin for black which you can then install in the same virtualenv and just use lsp to format the code instead of formatter.nvim.

Do you use any lsp (like pylsp or pyright)? If yes, did you setup it to use proper python / did you activate venv?
