vim-mucomplete VS Rope

If you don't mind using tags instead, a lighter alternative would be to use MUcomplete with the following settings:

You can use the mucomplete plugin, with the following settings:

You can use mucomplete plugin with built-in vim command completion (suggested by @Fantastic_Cow7272) added to completion chain

If you have a LSP client providing an omnicomplete function (such as vim-lsp), you can use mucomplete to enable "completion as you type". That setup is both Vim and Neovim compatible! :)

MUcomplete?

I use the mucomplete plugin, which makes Vim's builtin completions feel more Sublime-like.

Thanks for the suggestion. This set me on the right track - nvim-cmp didn't integrate well with my other plugins, but I found a very similar plugin called vim-mucomplete. Works out of the box and is equally minimal. Can also be configured for compatibility with stuff like UltiSnips.

There are plugins that may improve this experience for you, like supertab, vimcompletesme, or vim-mucomplete. You can find more completion plugins here.

There's a plugin, vim-mucomplete, that is built around combining some of the Ctrl-X bindings with, of which there are many. I used mucomplete to learn what all the various functions do and then uninstalled it, because I found the individual bindings easier to remember.

Hi, maintainer of rope here. There are a number of different options to use rope in Vim/Neovim, we've documented them in this page https://github.com/python-rope/rope/wiki/Rope-in-Vim-or-Neovim

If you're looking for something with a bigger codebase, then the rope library in which pylsp-rope is based on is also welcoming of contributions.

I think rope is the standard for refactoring, and should provide autoimports soon, though pyright might also be good for that.

If you are interested in discussing this or have ideas you want to sketch out, meet me at rope's GitHub Discussion.

However, my biggest and most popular open source project is one that I don't originally write, but rather I inherited a popular project that has been abandoned by their original author/maintainers. I use Python a lot, so I wanted to contribute to the community in a significant way, so unlike my other projects I do take the time promoting this project as well. I felt it's more like a community service for this project.

I am the maintainer rope and pylsp-rope. They are libraries for automated Python refactoring and to do that from any LSP-capable editors. We are always welcoming contributors of all levels.

Rope has first class support for Vim and it can do a move refactoring, among other refactorings. From this, this feature is available from python-mode and ropevim.

Okay this depends: if your code is static: perfectly possible for example with https://github.com/python-rope/rope (used for example by VS Code). If it's dynamic / generated via metaprogramming: I never tried it but I can't imagine that it'd work there, yes. However java tooling also can't do that because it simply doesn't support metaprogramming in any noteworthy way.
