vscode-nim VS nvim-treesitter-textobjects

You may fare better hooking VSCode to nimlangserver:

https://github.com/saem/vscode-nim#nim-lanugage-server-integ...

nimlangserver is an implementation of Language Server Protocol with the goal to make nim IDE experience more mature. The main difference between nimlangserver and the existing nimlsp is that nimlangserver runs nimsuggest in a separate process and that nimlangserver is using a newly introduced version of nimsuggest v3(see bellow). nimlangserver is currently integrated in VScode via vscode-nim and in Emacs via lsp-mode but adding integraion with other editors should be trivial.

admittedly the editor support is far away from perfect, but that particular issue just sounds like https://github.com/saem/vscode-nim/issues/80

To all those wondering about IDE support , the actively maintained VSCode extension is :

https://github.com/saem/vscode-nim

The default extension suggested by VSCode which have over 43k downloads in un-maintained for Eons and it won't work.

@dom96 can you pin this somewhere on the forum or website ?

UPDATE: improved highlighting rules you would get this code highligting more details https://github.com/saem/vscode-nim/issues/49

I was hoping to use nvim-treesitter-textobjects to jump to the next argument via something like this:

You want to look at nvim-treesitter-textobjects. It let's you define keymaps for navigating text objects defined by treesitter and you can also use them with commands like d, c and so on.

Thank you! It looks like nvim-treesitter-textobjects is a good plugin to start with:

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

I'm aware of nvim-treesitter-textobjects and I suspect my answer lies in this plugin, but is there a way to move between root nodes that is agnostic of the node type?

Thanks! I just started using https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-textobjects, and it works as a charm.

nvim-treesitter-textobjects

In this case, reading here is probably a good start: https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-textobjects

Have a look at https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-textobjects. Set up the @block.inner and @block.outer textobjects and it should work.

nvim-treesitter-textobjects lets you jump to (for instance) functions more accurately than with a regex-based approach using ]f

Or even better, one can use nvim-treesitter-textobjects. It already provides function/class selection and go-to functionality out-of-the-box.
