Nvim-lspconfig Alternatives

nvim-lspconfig reviews and mentions

• Need help to set up the pbkit language server
  2 projects | /r/neovim | 21 Sep 2023

  I am trying to set up the pbkit language server for protobuf files. Since it is not part of the nvim-lspconfig repo's server configurations, I have to figure the way out myself. It doesn't seem to be too difficult, as I can start from the bufls configuration there. The following is what I have at the moment:

• Using nvim-lint as a null-ls alternative for linters

  Personally, i think nvim-lint is the best alternative currently, specially so because it has no dependencies on external binaries. This guide assumes you already have your LSP set up with nvim-lspconfig (or an alternative like lsp-zero). You should also have an way to install the linters you are gonna need, i highly recommend Mason with mason-lspconfig.

  Basically neovim can act as a client to a variety of different language servers (https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/blob/master/doc/ser...) which give neovim IDE capabilities. This can be done in original Vim also but requires external plugins which can be a pain to compile and install. Neovim has it built in.

• SQL LSP dialect

  I'm struggling to get [sqlls](https://github.com/joe-re/sql-language-server) with [nvim-lspconfig](https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig) to use Postgres syntax.

  I see where you're coming from. FWIW, I've been using Neovim for an odd 7 years or so and only use plugins where absolutely necessary. I'll usually just add an appropriate BufWritePost (trigger after saving the buffer) autocommand for the language's file extension that does what I want. Or I'll add a keybind in .config/nvim/ftplugin/.vim (or .lua).

  The default LSP client config at https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig#suggested-configura... sets everything up for you, if you're using an LSP server. I'm not sure why it hasn't been merged into the Neovim repo; possibly because they want to keep the editor core fast and minimal.

  All this means you have to do a little more configuring than with something like VSCode, but to be honest, I haven't legitimately needed to make big changes to my config in a few years. There's stuff I add for fun (like little lua scripts to manage my clipboard and to layout tabs the way I want), but to maintain a 'VSCode' level of functionality none of it's needed. The advantage of spending a little extra time, for me, has been that my edit 'fits like a glove', so to speak :)

• Should Neovim now release a standard official configuration so that people who want an editor that just works out of the box get onboarded easily ?

  But things like custom LSP capabilities (e.g. "organize imports") and custom commands like https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/pull/2519 ... are a treadmill. There's no way that Helix offers that OOTB for many LSPs.

  find LSP server on the system (this is what https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig does)

• What are the benefits of using nvim-lspconfig?
  3 projects | /r/neovim | 2 Jul 2023

  I am reading through the docs of mason, and it recommends using a ton of different plugins to make using language servers and other stuff easier. Namely, it mentions using: https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig

• Editing init.lua with lua_ls on gives "Undefined global : vim" ?
  3 projects | /r/neovim | 27 Jun 2023

  require('packer').startup(function(use) use 'https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim' use 'https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig' end)

• Difference between Telescope `lsp_workspace_symbols` and `lsp_dynamic_workspace_symbols`?
  2 projects | /r/neovim | 25 Jun 2023

  A workspace (according to my basic understanding) usually constitutes a collection of files that LSP is aware of and is able to return information about text tokens used in those files. Usually LSP detects this based on a pattern (can be a file or something else i'm not sure exactly). For example, rust-analyzer expects a Cargo.toml or tsserver (for typescript) expects a package.json or tsconfig.json. You can read more about what each server expects in nvim-lspconfig. I'm sure there's more ex0lanation that i'm not aware of due to my basic understanding.
