`cmp` layer#

The cmp layer is a dependency for other layers providing a completion engine (namely, nvim-cmp).

Bindings#

In insert mode, with the suggestions list open:

<C-d>: when selecting a suggestion, scrolls the documentation up;
<C-f>: when selecting a suggestion, scrolls the documentation down;
<C-space>: accepts suggestions;
<C-e>: closes suggestions list;
<CR>: accepts the selected suggestion;
<Tab>: selects the next item in the list;
<S-Tab>: selects the previous item in the list.

Bindings can be customized via the configuration.

Configuration#

buffer (default false): whether autocomplete from the buffer or not;
lsp (default true): whether autocomplete from the LSP suggestions;
lspkind (default true): whether autocomplete from LSP symbols à-la-IntelliSense;
mappings (see Bindings for default): a table whose keys are binds as strings (e.g. '<C-d>) and values are handlers, much like the cmp.mapping.preset.insert method in nvim-cmp;
config (default { experimental = { ghost_text = true } }) configuration to be passed to nvim-cmp.

Examples#

-- path/of/your/vim/config/init.lua

require("visimp")({
  cmp = {
    buffer = true -- autocomplete from the buffer
    config = {
      experimental = {
        ghost_text = false -- disable experimental ghost text
      },
    },
  },
})

Layer-specific API#

Other layers may interact with cmp via the following methods.

`add_source(source)`#

Adds a new completion source, as defined in cmp.config.source. The complete list is available in the wiki.

-- adds cmp-git for git-related completion
local snippet = require('visimp.loader').get('snippet')

cmp.add_source({ name = 'git' })

require('cmp_git').setup()

`set_snippet(snippet)`#

Sets the snippet engine to be used, as specified in the docs.

local snippet = require('visimp.loader').get('snippet')

snippet.set_snippet {
  expand = function(args)
    vim.fn["vsnip#anonymous"](args.body) -- For `vsnip` users.
    -- require('luasnip').lsp_expand(args.body) -- For `luasnip` users.
    -- require('snippy').expand_snippet(args.body) -- For `snippy` users.
    -- vim.fn["UltiSnips#Anon"](args.body) -- For `ultisnips` users.
  end
}
