Configuring LSP on NeoVim
Posted on 26 May, 2021
Make sure you have NeoVim version >=0.5.5 installed
" For language server configurations
Plug 'neovim/nvim-lspconfig'
For autocompletion choose either of these choices both seems to be equally good
Plug 'nvim-lua/completion-nvim'
Or
Plug 'hrsh7th/nvim-compe'
For the sake of this guide I have chosen
nvim-compeYou would have to manually install the language servers you need.
- 1.Install language server pack for python (make sure you are running latest pip and Python 3.6+)pip install 'python-language-server[all]'pip3 install pyright
- 2.GO111MODULE=on go get golang.org/x/tools/[email protected]Plug 'fatih/vim-go', { 'do': ':GoUpdateBinaries' }" run :GoInstallBinaries if setting up first time" this will also install the languager server for go (gopls) automatically
- 3.# if you have npm installednpm i -g bash-language-server# snapsudo snap install bash-language-server
The following boilerplate config can be used as it is
set completeopt=menuone,noselect
" Use <Tab> and <S-Tab> to navigate through popup menu
inoremap <expr> <Tab> pumvisible() ? "\<C-n>" : "\<Tab>"
inoremap <expr> <S-Tab> pumvisible() ? "\<C-p>" : "\<S-Tab>"

Notice: If you are embedding lua code in your vimscript config, use the following heredoc
lua <<EOF

lua code

After setting up both the plugins open a file whose language server you installed and run
:LspInfo to check server diagnosticsBelow are some plugins which spice up the neovim lsp experience
Richer UI for LSP
Plug 'neovim/nvim-lspconfig'
Plug 'glepnir/lspsaga.nvim'
" lsp provider to find the cursor word definition and reference
nnoremap <silent> gh <cmd>lua require'lspsaga.provider'.lsp_finder()<CR>
" preview definition
nnoremap <silent> gd <cmd>lua require'lspsaga.provider'.preview_definition()<CR>
" show hover doc
nnoremap <silent> K <cmd>lua require('lspsaga.hover').render_hover_doc()<CR>
" scroll down hover doc or scroll in definition preview
nnoremap <silent> <C-f> <cmd>lua require('lspsaga.action').smart_scroll_with_saga(1)<CR>

nnoremap <silent> <C-b> <cmd>lua require('lspsaga.action').smart_scroll_with_saga(-1)<CR>

nnoremap <silent><leader>ca <cmd>lua require('lspsaga.codeaction').code_action()<CR>
vnoremap <silent><leader>ca :<C-U>lua require('lspsaga.codeaction').range_code_action()<CR>
Show function signature help as you type
Plug 'ray-x/lsp_signature.nvim'
lua <<EOF
require'lspconfig'.gopls.setup {
on_attach = function(client)
require 'lsp_signature'.on_attach(client)
end,
}
EOF
Highlighting other uses of the current word under the cursor
Plug 'RRethy/vim-illuminate'
After installing make sure you have a language server running, it should work out of the box You can manually enable what files to use illuminate on as well
let g:Illuminate_ftwhitelist = ['vim', 'sh', 'python']
