NVIM REFERENCE MANUAL
LSP client/framework *lsp* *LSP*
Nvim supports the Language Server Protocol (LSP), which means it acts as
a client to LSP servers and includes a Lua framework `vim.lsp` for building
enhanced LSP tools.
https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/
LSP facilitates features like go-to-definition, find references, hover,
completion, rename, format, refactor, etc., using semantic whole-project
analysis (unlike |ctags|).
Type |gO| to see the table of contents.
==============================================================================
QUICKSTART *lsp-quickstart*
Nvim provides an LSP client, but the servers are provided by third parties.
Follow these steps to get LSP features:
1. Install language servers using your package manager or by following the
upstream installation instructions. You can find language servers here:
https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/implementors/servers/
2. Use |vim.lsp.config()| to define a configuration for an LSP client.
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.config['luals'] = {
-- Command and arguments to start the server.
cmd = { 'lua-language-server' },
-- Filetypes to automatically attach to.
filetypes = { 'lua' },
-- Sets the "root directory" to the parent directory of the file in the
-- current buffer that contains either a ".luarc.json" or a
-- ".luarc.jsonc" file. Files that share a root directory will reuse
-- the connection to the same LSP server.
root_markers = { '.luarc.json', '.luarc.jsonc' },
-- Specific settings to send to the server. The schema for this is
-- defined by the server. For example the schema for lua-language-server
-- can be found here https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LuaLS/vscode-lua/master/setting/schema.json
settings = {
Lua = {
runtime = {
version = 'LuaJIT',
}
}
}
}
<
3. Use |vim.lsp.enable()| to enable a configuration.
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.enable('luals')
<
4. Check that the buffer is attached to the server: >vim
:checkhealth vim.lsp
<
5. (Optional) Configure keymaps and autocommands to use LSP features.
|lsp-attach|
*lsp-config*
Configurations for LSP clients is done via |vim.lsp.config()|.
When an LSP client starts, it resolves a configuration by merging
configurations, in increasing priority, from the following:
1. Configuration defined for the `'*'` name.
2. Configuration from the result of merging all tables returned by
`lsp/<name>.lua` files in 'runtimepath' for a server of name `name`.
3. Configurations defined anywhere else.
Note: The merge semantics of configurations follow the behaviour of
|vim.tbl_deep_extend()|.
Example:
Given: >lua
-- Defined in init.lua
vim.lsp.config('*', {
capabilities = {
textDocument = {
semanticTokens = {
multilineTokenSupport = true,
}
}
},
root_markers = { '.git' },
})
-- Defined in ../lsp/clangd.lua
return {
cmd = { 'clangd' },
root_markers = { '.clangd', 'compile_commands.json' },
filetypes = { 'c', 'cpp' },
}
-- Defined in init.lua
vim.lsp.config('clangd', {
filetypes = { 'c' },
})
<
Results in the configuration: >lua
{
-- From the clangd configuration in <rtp>/lsp/clangd.lua
cmd = { 'clangd' },
-- From the clangd configuration in <rtp>/lsp/clangd.lua
-- Overrides the * configuration in init.lua
root_markers = { '.clangd', 'compile_commands.json' },
-- From the clangd configuration in init.lua
-- Overrides the * configuration in init.lua
filetypes = { 'c' },
-- From the * configuration in init.lua
capabilities = {
textDocument = {
semanticTokens = {
multilineTokenSupport = true,
}
}
}
}
<
*lsp-defaults*
When the Nvim LSP client starts it enables diagnostics |vim.diagnostic| (see
|vim.diagnostic.config()| to customize). It also sets various default options,
listed below, if (1) the language server supports the functionality and (2)
the options are empty or were set by the builtin runtime (ftplugin) files. The
options are not restored when the LSP client is stopped or detached.
- 'omnifunc' is set to |vim.lsp.omnifunc()|, use |i_CTRL-X_CTRL-O| to trigger
completion.
- 'tagfunc' is set to |vim.lsp.tagfunc()|. This enables features like
go-to-definition, |:tjump|, and keymaps like |CTRL-]|, |CTRL-W_]|,
|CTRL-W_}| to utilize the language server.
- 'formatexpr' is set to |vim.lsp.formatexpr()|, so you can format lines via
|gq| if the language server supports it.
- To opt out of this use |gw| instead of gq, or clear 'formatexpr' on |LspAttach|.
- |K| is mapped to |vim.lsp.buf.hover()| unless |'keywordprg'| is customized or
a custom keymap for `K` exists.
*grr* *gra* *grn* *gri* *i_CTRL-S*
Some keymaps are created unconditionally when Nvim starts:
- "grn" is mapped in Normal mode to |vim.lsp.buf.rename()|
- "gra" is mapped in Normal and Visual mode to |vim.lsp.buf.code_action()|
- "grr" is mapped in Normal mode to |vim.lsp.buf.references()|
- "gri" is mapped in Normal mode to |vim.lsp.buf.implementation()|
- "gO" is mapped in Normal mode to |vim.lsp.buf.document_symbol()|
- CTRL-S is mapped in Insert mode to |vim.lsp.buf.signature_help()|
If not wanted, these keymaps can be removed at any time using
|vim.keymap.del()| or |:unmap| (see also |gr-default|).
*lsp-defaults-disable*
To override or delete any of the above defaults, set or unset the options on
|LspAttach|: >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspAttach', {
callback = function(args)
-- Unset 'formatexpr'
vim.bo[args.buf].formatexpr = nil
-- Unset 'omnifunc'
vim.bo[args.buf].omnifunc = nil
-- Unmap K
vim.keymap.del('n', 'K', { buffer = args.buf })
end,
})
<
*lsp-attach*
To use other LSP features, set keymaps and other buffer options on
|LspAttach|. Not all language servers provide the same capabilities. Use
capability checks to ensure you only use features supported by the language
server. Example: >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspAttach', {
callback = function(args)
local client = vim.lsp.get_client_by_id(args.data.client_id)
if client:supports_method('textDocument/implementation') then
-- Create a keymap for vim.lsp.buf.implementation
end
if client:supports_method('textDocument/completion') then
-- Enable auto-completion
vim.lsp.completion.enable(true, client.id, args.buf, {autotrigger = true})
end
if client:supports_method('textDocument/formatting') then
-- Format the current buffer on save
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('BufWritePre', {
buffer = args.buf,
callback = function()
vim.lsp.buf.format({bufnr = args.buf, id = client.id})
end,
})
end
end,
})
<
To learn what capabilities are available you can run the following command in
a buffer with a started LSP client: >vim
:lua =vim.lsp.get_clients()[1].server_capabilities
Full list of features provided by default can be found in |lsp-buf|.
================================================================================
FAQ *lsp-faq*
- Q: How to force-reload LSP?
- A: Stop all clients, then reload the buffer. >vim
:lua vim.lsp.stop_client(vim.lsp.get_clients())
:edit
- Q: Why isn't completion working?
- A: In the buffer where you want to use LSP, check that 'omnifunc' is set to
"v:lua.vim.lsp.omnifunc": `:verbose set omnifunc?`
- Some other plugin may be overriding the option. To avoid that you could
set the option in an |after-directory| ftplugin, e.g.
"after/ftplugin/python.vim".
- Q: How do I run a request synchronously (e.g. for formatting on file save)?
- A: Check if the function has an `async` parameter and set the value to
false. E.g. code formatting: >vim
" Auto-format *.rs (rust) files prior to saving them
" (async = false is the default for format)
autocmd BufWritePre *.rs lua vim.lsp.buf.format({ async = false })
<
*lsp-vs-treesitter*
- Q: How do LSP and Treesitter compare?
- A: LSP requires a client and language server. The language server uses
semantic analysis to understand code at a project level. This provides
language servers with the ability to rename across files, find
definitions in external libraries and more.
Treesitter is a language parsing library that provides excellent tools
for incrementally parsing text and handling errors. This makes it a great
fit for editors to understand the contents of the current file for things
like syntax highlighting, simple goto-definitions, scope analysis and
more.
LSP and Treesitter are both great tools for editing and inspecting code.
================================================================================
LSP API *lsp-api*
LSP core API is described at |lsp-core|. Those are the core functions for
creating and managing clients.
The `vim.lsp.buf_…` functions perform operations for all LSP clients attached
to the given buffer. |lsp-buf|
LSP request/response handlers are implemented as Lua functions (see
|lsp-handler|).
*lsp-method*
Requests and notifications defined by the LSP specification are referred to as
"LSP methods". The Nvim LSP client provides default handlers in the global
|vim.lsp.handlers| table, you can list them with this command: >vim
:lua vim.print(vim.tbl_keys(vim.lsp.handlers))
<
They are also listed below. Note that handlers depend on server support: they
won't run if your server doesn't support them.
- `'callHierarchy/incomingCalls'`
- `'callHierarchy/outgoingCalls'`
- `'textDocument/codeAction'`
- `'textDocument/completion'`
- `'textDocument/declaration'`
- `'textDocument/definition'`
- `'textDocument/diagnostic'`
- `'textDocument/documentHighlight'`
- `'textDocument/documentSymbol'`
- `'textDocument/foldingRange'`
- `'textDocument/formatting'`
- `'textDocument/hover'`
- `'textDocument/implementation'`
- `'textDocument/inlayHint'`
- `'textDocument/prepareTypeHierarchy'`
- `'textDocument/publishDiagnostics'`
- `'textDocument/rangeFormatting'`
- `'textDocument/rangesFormatting'`
- `'textDocument/references'`
- `'textDocument/rename'`
- `'textDocument/semanticTokens/full'`
- `'textDocument/semanticTokens/full/delta'`
- `'textDocument/signatureHelp'`
- `'textDocument/typeDefinition*'`
- `'typeHierarchy/subtypes'`
- `'typeHierarchy/supertypes'`
- `'window/logMessage'`
- `'window/showMessage'`
- `'window/showDocument'`
- `'window/showMessageRequest'`
- `'workspace/applyEdit'`
- `'workspace/configuration'`
- `'workspace/executeCommand'`
- `'workspace/inlayHint/refresh'`
- `'workspace/symbol'`
- `'workspace/workspaceFolders'`
*lsp-handler*
LSP handlers are functions that handle |lsp-response|s to requests made by Nvim
to the server. (Notifications, as opposed to requests, are fire-and-forget:
there is no response, so they can't be handled. |lsp-notification|)
Each response handler has this signature: >
function(err, result, ctx)
<
Parameters: ~
• {err} (`table|nil`) Error info dict, or `nil` if the request
completed.
• {result} (`Result|Params|nil`) `result` key of the |lsp-response| or
`nil` if the request failed.
• {ctx} (`table`) Table of calling state associated with the
handler, with these keys:
• {method} (`string`) |lsp-method| name.
• {client_id} (`number`) |vim.lsp.Client| identifier.
• {bufnr} (`Buffer`) Buffer handle.
• {params} (`table|nil`) Request parameters table.
• {version} (`number`) Document version at time of
request. Handlers can compare this to the
current document version to check if the
response is "stale". See also |b:changedtick|.
Returns: ~
Two values `result, err` where `err` is shaped like an RPC error: >
{ code, message, data? }
< You can use |vim.lsp.rpc.rpc_response_error()| to create this object.
*lsp-handler-resolution*
Handlers can be set by (in increasing priority):
*vim.lsp.handlers*
- Setting a field in `vim.lsp.handlers`. This global table contains the
default mappings of |lsp-method| names to handlers. (Note: only for
server-to-client requests/notifications, not client-to-server.)
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.handlers['textDocument/publishDiagnostics'] = my_custom_diagnostics_handler
<
- Passing a {handlers} parameter to |vim.lsp.start()|. This sets the default
|lsp-handler| for a specific server. (Note: only for server-to-client
requests/notifications, not client-to-server.)
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.start {
..., -- Other configuration omitted.
handlers = {
['textDocument/publishDiagnostics'] = my_custom_server_definition
},
}
<
- Passing a {handler} parameter to |vim.lsp.buf_request_all()|. This sets the
|lsp-handler| ONLY for the given request(s).
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.buf_request_all(
0,
'textDocument/publishDiagnostics',
my_request_params,
my_handler
)
<
*vim.lsp.log_levels*
Log levels are defined in |vim.log.levels|
VIM.LSP.PROTOCOL *vim.lsp.protocol*
Module `vim.lsp.protocol` defines constants dictated by the LSP specification,
and helper functions for creating protocol-related objects.
https://github.com/microsoft/language-server-protocol/raw/gh-pages/_specifications/specification-3-14.md
For example `vim.lsp.protocol.ErrorCodes` allows reverse lookup by number or
name: >lua
vim.lsp.protocol.TextDocumentSyncKind.Full == 1
vim.lsp.protocol.TextDocumentSyncKind[1] == "Full"
<
*lsp-response*
LSP response shape:

================================================================================
LSP HIGHLIGHT *lsp-highlight*
Reference Highlights:
Highlight groups that are meant to be used by |vim.lsp.buf.document_highlight()|.
You can see more about the differences in types here:
https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specification#textDocument_documentHighlight
*hl-LspReferenceText*
LspReferenceText used for highlighting "text" references
*hl-LspReferenceRead*
LspReferenceRead used for highlighting "read" references
*hl-LspReferenceWrite*
LspReferenceWrite used for highlighting "write" references
*hl-LspReferenceTarget*
LspReferenceTarget used for highlighting reference targets (e.g. in a
hover range)
*hl-LspInlayHint*
LspInlayHint used for highlighting inlay hints
*lsp-highlight-codelens*
Highlight groups related to |lsp-codelens| functionality.
*hl-LspCodeLens*
LspCodeLens
Used to color the virtual text of the codelens. See
|nvim_buf_set_extmark()|.
LspCodeLensSeparator *hl-LspCodeLensSeparator*
Used to color the separator between two or more code lenses.
*lsp-highlight-signature*
Highlight groups related to |vim.lsp.handlers.signature_help()|.
*hl-LspSignatureActiveParameter*
LspSignatureActiveParameter
Used to highlight the active parameter in the signature help. See
|vim.lsp.handlers.signature_help()|.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LSP SEMANTIC HIGHLIGHTS *lsp-semantic-highlight*
When available, the LSP client highlights code using |lsp-semantic_tokens|,
which are another way that LSP servers can provide information about source
code. Note that this is in addition to treesitter syntax highlighting;
semantic highlighting does not replace syntax highlighting.
The server will typically provide one token per identifier in the source code.
The token will have a `type` such as "function" or "variable", and 0 or more
`modifier`s such as "readonly" or "deprecated." The standard types and
modifiers are described here:
https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specification/#textDocument_semanticTokens
LSP servers may also use off-spec types and modifiers.
The LSP client adds one or more highlights for each token. The highlight
groups are derived from the token's type and modifiers:
• `@lsp.type.<type>.<ft>` for the type
• `@lsp.mod.<mod>.<ft>` for each modifier
• `@lsp.typemod.<type>.<mod>.<ft>` for each modifier
Use |:Inspect| to view the highlights for a specific token. Use |:hi| or
|nvim_set_hl()| to change the appearance of semantic highlights: >vim
hi @lsp.type.function guifg=Yellow " function names are yellow
hi @lsp.type.variable.lua guifg=Green " variables in lua are green
hi @lsp.mod.deprecated gui=strikethrough " deprecated is crossed out
hi @lsp.typemod.function.async guifg=Blue " async functions are blue
<
The value |vim.hl.priorities|`.semantic_tokens` is the priority of the
`@lsp.type.*` highlights. The `@lsp.mod.*` and `@lsp.typemod.*` highlights
have priorities one and two higher, respectively.
You can disable semantic highlights by clearing the highlight groups: >lua
-- Hide semantic highlights for functions
vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, '@lsp.type.function', {})
-- Hide all semantic highlights
for _, group in ipairs(vim.fn.getcompletion("@lsp", "highlight")) do
vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, group, {})
end
<
You probably want these inside a |ColorScheme| autocommand.
Use |LspTokenUpdate| and |vim.lsp.semantic_tokens.highlight_token()| for more
complex highlighting.
The following is a list of standard captures used in queries for Nvim,
highlighted according to the current colorscheme (use |:Inspect| on one to see
the exact definition):
@lsp.type.class Identifiers that declare or reference a class type
@lsp.type.comment Tokens that represent a comment
@lsp.type.decorator Identifiers that declare or reference decorators and annotations
@lsp.type.enum Identifiers that declare or reference an enumeration type

@lsp.type.interface Identifiers that declare or reference an interface type
@lsp.type.keyword Tokens that represent a language keyword
@lsp.type.macro Identifiers that declare a macro
@lsp.type.method Identifiers that declare a member function or method
@lsp.type.modifier Tokens that represent a modifier
@lsp.type.namespace Identifiers that declare or reference a namespace, module, or package
@lsp.type.number Tokens that represent a number literal
@lsp.type.operator Tokens that represent an operator

@lsp.type.regexp Tokens that represent a regular expression literal
@lsp.type.string Tokens that represent a string literal
@lsp.type.struct Identifiers that declare or reference a struct type
@lsp.type.type Identifiers that declare or reference a type that is not covered above
@lsp.type.typeParameter Identifiers that declare or reference a type parameter
@lsp.type.variable Identifiers that declare or reference a local or global variable
@lsp.mod.abstract Types and member functions that are abstract
@lsp.mod.async Functions that are marked async
@lsp.mod.declaration Declarations of symbols

==============================================================================
EVENTS *lsp-events*
LspAttach *LspAttach*
After an LSP client attaches to a buffer. The |autocmd-pattern| is the
name of the buffer. When used from Lua, the client ID is passed to the
callback in the "data" table. See |lsp-attach| for an example.
LspDetach *LspDetach*
Just before an LSP client detaches from a buffer. The |autocmd-pattern|
is the name of the buffer. When used from Lua, the client ID is passed
to the callback in the "data" table. Example: >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspDetach', {
callback = function(args)
-- Get the detaching client
local client = vim.lsp.get_client_by_id(args.data.client_id)
-- Remove the autocommand to format the buffer on save, if it exists
if client:supports_method('textDocument/formatting') then
vim.api.nvim_clear_autocmds({
event = 'BufWritePre',
buffer = args.buf,
})
end
end,
})
<
LspNotify *LspNotify*
This event is triggered after each successful notification sent to an
LSP server.
When used from Lua, the client_id, LSP method, and parameters are sent
in the "data" table. Example: >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspNotify', {
callback = function(args)
local bufnr = args.buf
local client_id = args.data.client_id
local method = args.data.method
local params = args.data.params
-- do something with the notification
if method == 'textDocument/...' then
update_buffer(bufnr)
end
end,
})
<
LspProgress *LspProgress*
Upon receipt of a progress notification from the server. Notifications can
be polled from a `progress` ring buffer of a |vim.lsp.Client| or use
|vim.lsp.status()| to get an aggregate message.
If the server sends a "work done progress", the `pattern` is set to `kind`
(one of `begin`, `report` or `end`).
When used from Lua, the event contains a `data` table with `client_id` and
`params` properties. `params` will contain the request params sent by the
server (see `lsp.ProgressParams`).
Example: >vim
autocmd LspProgress * redrawstatus
<
LspRequest *LspRequest*
For each request sent to an LSP server, this event is triggered for
every change to the request's status. The status can be one of
`pending`, `complete`, or `cancel` and is sent as the {type} on the
"data" table passed to the callback function.
It triggers when the initial request is sent ({type} == `pending`) and
when the LSP server responds ({type} == `complete`). If a cancellation
is requested using `client.cancel_request(request_id)`, then this event
will trigger with {type} == `cancel`.
When used from Lua, the client ID, request ID, and request are sent in
the "data" table. See {requests} in |vim.lsp.Client| for details on the
{request} value. If the request type is `complete`, the request will be
deleted from the client's pending requests table immediately after
calling the event's callbacks. Example: >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspRequest', {
callback = function(args)
local bufnr = args.buf
local client_id = args.data.client_id
local request_id = args.data.request_id
local request = args.data.request
if request.type == 'pending' then
-- do something with pending requests
track_pending(client_id, bufnr, request_id, request)
elseif request.type == 'cancel' then
-- do something with pending cancel requests
track_canceling(client_id, bufnr, request_id, request)
elseif request.type == 'complete' then
-- do something with finished requests. this pending
-- request entry is about to be removed since it is complete
track_finish(client_id, bufnr, request_id, request)
end
end,
})
<
LspTokenUpdate *LspTokenUpdate*
When a visible semantic token is sent or updated by the LSP server, or
when an existing token becomes visible for the first time. The
|autocmd-pattern| is the name of the buffer. When used from Lua, the
token and client ID are passed to the callback in the "data" table. The
token fields are documented in |vim.lsp.semantic_tokens.get_at_pos()|.
Example:
>lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspTokenUpdate', {
callback = function(args)
local token = args.data.token
if token.type == 'variable' and not token.modifiers.readonly then
vim.lsp.semantic_tokens.highlight_token(
token, args.buf, args.data.client_id, 'MyMutableVariableHighlight'
)
end
end,
})
<
Note: doing anything other than calling
|vim.lsp.semantic_tokens.highlight_token()| is considered experimental.
==============================================================================
Lua module: vim.lsp *lsp-core*
*vim.lsp.Config*
Extends: |vim.lsp.ClientConfig|
Fields: ~
• {cmd}? (`string[]|fun(dispatchers: vim.lsp.rpc.Dispatchers): vim.lsp.rpc.PublicClient`)
See `cmd` in |vim.lsp.ClientConfig|.
• {filetypes}? (`string[]`) Filetypes the client will attach to, if
activated by `vim.lsp.enable()`. If not provided,
then the client will attach to all filetypes.
• {root_markers}? (`string[]`) Directory markers (.e.g. '.git/') where
the LSP server will base its workspaceFolders,
rootUri, and rootPath on initialization. Unused if
`root_dir` is provided.
• {root_dir}? (`string|fun(cb:fun(string))`) Directory where the
LSP server will base its workspaceFolders, rootUri,
and rootPath on initialization. If a function, it
accepts a single callback argument which must be
called with the value of root_dir to use. The LSP
server will not be started until the callback is
called.
• {reuse_client}? (`fun(client: vim.lsp.Client, config: vim.lsp.ClientConfig): boolean`)
Predicate used to decide if a client should be
re-used. Used on all running clients. The default
implementation re-uses a client if name and root_dir
matches.
buf_attach_client({bufnr}, {client_id}) *vim.lsp.buf_attach_client()*
Implements the `textDocument/did…` notifications required to track a
buffer for any language server.
Without calling this, the server won't be notified of changes to a buffer.
Parameters: ~
• {bufnr} (`integer`) Buffer handle, or 0 for current
• {client_id} (`integer`) Client id
Return: ~
(`boolean`) success `true` if client was attached successfully;
`false` otherwise
buf_detach_client({bufnr}, {client_id}) *vim.lsp.buf_detach_client()*
Detaches client from the specified buffer. Note: While the server is
notified that the text document (buffer) was closed, it is still able to
send notifications should it ignore this notification.

commands *vim.lsp.commands*
Registry for client side commands. This is an extension point for plugins
to handle custom commands which are not part of the core language server
protocol specification.
The registry is a table where the key is a unique command name, and the
value is a function which is called if any LSP action (code action, code
lenses, ...) triggers the command.
If an LSP response contains a command for which no matching entry is
available in this registry, the command will be executed via the LSP
server using `workspace/executeCommand`.
The first argument to the function will be the `Command`: Command title:
String command: String arguments?: any[]
The second argument is the `ctx` of |lsp-handler|

See also: ~
• |vim.lsp.log_levels|
start({config}, {opts}) *vim.lsp.start()*
Create a new LSP client and start a language server or reuses an already
running client if one is found matching `name` and `root_dir`. Attaches
the current buffer to the client.
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.start({
name = 'my-server-name',
cmd = {'name-of-language-server-executable'},
root_dir = vim.fs.root(0, {'pyproject.toml', 'setup.py'}),
})
<
See |vim.lsp.ClientConfig| for all available options. The most important
are:
• `name` arbitrary name for the LSP client. Should be unique per language
server.
• `cmd` command string[] or function.
• `root_dir` path to the project root. By default this is used to decide
if an existing client should be re-used. The example above uses
|vim.fs.root()| to detect the root by traversing the file system upwards
starting from the current directory until either a `pyproject.toml` or
`setup.py` file is found.
• `workspace_folders` list of `{ uri:string, name: string }` tables
specifying the project root folders used by the language server. If
`nil` the property is derived from `root_dir` for convenience.
Language servers use this information to discover metadata like the
dependencies of your project and they tend to index the contents within
the project folder.
To ensure a language server is only started for languages it can handle,
make sure to call |vim.lsp.start()| within a |FileType| autocmd. Either
use |:au|, |nvim_create_autocmd()| or put the call in a
`ftplugin/<filetype_name>.lua` (See |ftplugin-name|)
Parameters: ~
• {config} (`vim.lsp.ClientConfig`) Configuration for the server. See
|vim.lsp.ClientConfig|.
• {opts} (`table?`) Optional keyword arguments.
• {reuse_client}?
(`fun(client: vim.lsp.Client, config: vim.lsp.ClientConfig): boolean`)
Predicate used to decide if a client should be re-used.
Used on all running clients. The default implementation
re-uses a client if it has the same name and if the given
workspace folders (or root_dir) are all included in the
client's workspace folders.
• {bufnr}? (`integer`) Buffer handle to attach to if
starting or re-using a client (0 for current).
• {attach}? (`boolean`) Whether to attach the client to a
buffer (default true). If set to `false`, `reuse_client`
and `bufnr` will be ignored.
• {silent}? (`boolean`) Suppress error reporting if the LSP
server fails to start (default false).
Return: ~
(`integer?`) client_id
status() *vim.lsp.status()*
Consumes the latest progress messages from all clients and formats them as
a string. Empty if there are no clients or if no new messages
Return: ~
(`string`)
stop_client({client_id}, {force}) *vim.lsp.stop_client()*
Stops a client(s).
You can also use the `stop()` function on a |vim.lsp.Client| object. To
stop all clients: >lua
vim.lsp.stop_client(vim.lsp.get_clients())
<
By default asks the server to shutdown, unless stop was requested already
for this client, then force-shutdown is attempted.
Parameters: ~
• {client_id} (`integer|integer[]|vim.lsp.Client[]`) id, list of id's,
or list of |vim.lsp.Client| objects
• {force} (`boolean?`) shutdown forcefully
tagfunc({pattern}, {flags}) *vim.lsp.tagfunc()*
Provides an interface between the built-in client and 'tagfunc'.
When used with normal mode commands (e.g. |CTRL-]|) this will invoke the
"textDocument/definition" LSP method to find the tag under the cursor.
Otherwise, uses "workspace/symbol". If no results are returned from any
LSP servers, falls back to using built-in tags.
Parameters: ~
• {pattern} (`string`) Pattern used to find a workspace symbol
• {flags} (`string`) See |tag-function|
Return: ~
(`table[]`) tags A list of matching tags

group from Nvim. Nvim will shutdown the process
on exit, but if Nvim fails to exit cleanly this
could leave behind orphaned server processes.

folders passed to the language server. For
backwards compatibility rootUri and rootPath
will be derived from the first workspace folder
in this list. See `workspaceFolders` in the LSP

Table that maps string of clientside commands to
user-defined functions. Commands passed to
`start()` take precedence over the global
command registry. Each key must be a unique
command name, and the value is a function which
is called if any LSP action (code action, code
lenses, ...) triggers the command.
• {init_options}? (`lsp.LSPObject`) Values to pass in the
initialization request as
`initializationOptions`. See `initialize` in the
LSP spec.

encoding" in LSP spec, the encoding that the LSP
server expects. Client does not verify this is
correct.
• {on_error}? (`fun(code: integer, err: string)`) Callback
invoked when the client operation throws an
error. `code` is a number describing the error.
Other arguments may be passed depending on the
error kind. See `vim.lsp.rpc.client_errors` for
possible errors. Use
`vim.lsp.rpc.client_errors[code]` to get
human-friendly name.
• {before_init}? (`fun(params: lsp.InitializeParams, config: vim.lsp.ClientConfig)`)
Callback invoked before the LSP "initialize"
phase, where `params` contains the parameters
being sent to the server and `config` is the

autocmd CursorHoldI <buffer> lua vim.lsp.buf.document_highlight()
autocmd CursorMoved <buffer> lua vim.lsp.buf.clear_references()
<
Note: Usage of |vim.lsp.buf.document_highlight()| requires the following
highlight groups to be defined or you won't be able to see the actual
highlights. |hl-LspReferenceText| |hl-LspReferenceRead|
|hl-LspReferenceWrite|
document_symbol({opts}) *vim.lsp.buf.document_symbol()*
Lists all symbols in the current buffer in the |location-list|.

vim.lsp.buf.format {
filter = function(client) return client.name ~= "ts_ls" end
}
<
• {async}? (`boolean`, default: false) If true the method
won't block. Editing the buffer while formatting
asynchronous can lead to unexpected changes.
• {id}? (`integer`) Restrict formatting to the client with ID
(client.id) matching this field.
