* build: replace LuaLS with EmmyLuaLewis Russell2026-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: LuaLS struggles with the generics used in Nvim's runtime, requiring broad diagnostic suppressions. Indexing is also slow. Solution: Use EmmyLua for type checks in the build and CI. It offers more sophisticated type checking, substantially better support for generics, and much better flow analysis. Correct the affected annotations. Use `@internal`, supported directly by EmmyLua, instead of `@nodoc` for shared internal declarations, and support it in the help parser. AI-assisted
* test: lint EXX error codes #8155Justin M. Keyes2026-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | Problem: - Choosing a new EXX error code is tedious. - It's possible to accidentally use an EXX error code for different purposes. Solution: Add a lint check which requires EXX error codes to have a :help tag. This also avoids duplicates because `make doc` does `:helptags ++t doc` which fails if duplicates are found.

* ci: lint and format treesitter queriesRiley Bruins2026-02-21
| | | | | This also adds a `formatquery` rule to write the new format to the query files.
* build: drop BUNDLED_CMAKE_FLAG, BUNDLED_LUA_CMAKE_FLAGJustin M. Keyes2025-11-22
| | | | | | | | Problem: We have too many build flags. Solution: Prepend to DEPS_CMAKE_FLAGS instead of defining a bunch of extra flags.
* docs: deprecate BUNDLED_CMAKE_FLAGJustin M. Keyes2025-11-22
| | | | | | | | | Problem: We have too many build flags. BUNDLED_CMAKE_FLAG is redundant with DEPS_CMAKE_FLAGS. Solution: In documentation, refer to DEPS_CMAKE_FLAGS instead of BUNDLED_CMAKE_FLAG.
* ci: check URL reachability #35593Yochem van Rosmalen2025-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: scripts/check_urls.vim manually matches urls in the help pages and then synchronously checks them via curl/wget/powershell. This is extremely slow (~5 minutes for Nvims runtime on my machine) and prone to errors in how the urls are matched. Solution: - Use Tree-sitter to find the urls in the help pages and `vim.net.request` to check the responses. - Add a `lintdocurls` build task and check it in CI (every Friday). - Reopens a dedicated issue if it finds unreachable URLs. - Drop the old check_urls.vim script.
* build: remove reference to runtime/indent/Makefile (#35935)Peter Aronoff2025-09-28
| | | | | | | `runtime/indent/Makefile` was removed in 2d8ed73, and now `make clean` and `make distclean` fail since those jobs call `make -C runtime/indent clean` Remove call to `make -C runtime/indent clean`
* fix: type fixesLewis Russell2025-06-06

* build: make makefile work on msysdundargoc2025-02-23
| | | | | | | Relying on $(OS) doesn't work as it's too naive, so we check if $PATH contains a colon instead. Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/31027
* build: add luals checkdundargoc2025-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This automatically downloads and uses the correct luals binary for the currently used system. `make luals` will run luals on all lua files in `runtime`. We download lua-language-server manually instead of relying on contributors downloading it on their own (like with stylua) as lua-language-server is updated frequently which may cause unnecessary friction. Therefore, we download a pinned version of luals which we then can manually bump when needed. This can be re-evaluated if luals becomes more stable in the future. Currently this is not run when using `make lint` since cmake style "file caching" doesn't seem possible at the moment. This is because checking a single file doesn't seem to work. Work on https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/24563.

* build: work around bug in make when PATH includes cmake as dirdundargoc2024-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There appears to be a bug in `make` where if a rule asks `make` to invoke a command called `foo`, and `foo` exists somewhere in `$PATH` as a directory (not an executable file), `make` will attempt to `execve` that directory instead of continuing to search in later parts of the `$PATH` for `foo` as a true executable. The cause can be traced back to a bug in Make 4.3 which stems from their use of the findprog function in Gnulib. This was reported to the Make maintainers here: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?57962 and then forwarded to the Gnulib maintainers here: https://github.com/coreutils/gnulib/commit/7b1de4a Make 4.4 does not have this bug, and I can confirm that I'm able to run make in the Neovim repo with no further modifications to my system than upgrading the version of make I'm using to 4.4 or 4.4.1. As the change is small enough, and it's unlikely that make version around the world is going to be updated in a timely manner, it makes sense to just add a workaround for this. Using `command -v` to resolve the `cmake` command, similar to what is already being done with `cmake3`, makes it work correctly in all cases. Continuing to include `... || echo cmake` at the end means that if neither `cmake3` nor `cmake` are installed, the user will still see a message about CMake being missing.

* build: add quotes around `CMAKE_GENERATOR` variabledundargoc2024-09-02
| | | | | | | | | This will fix the following error when using generators that have a space in them, e.g. "Unix Makefiles": "CMake Error: Could not create named generator Unix". Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/30218.
* build: make makefile work on windowsdundargoc2024-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | Using powershell as the default windows shell as using cmd alters $PATH in a way that makes building neovim fail (powershell prioritizes visual studio tools which is arguably more correct). This was tested with gnu make for windows, which can be installed with e.g. scoop. It does not work with nmake and it is extremely unlikely we want to add nmake support as the makefile is merely supposed to be syntactic sugar for the most common case. For similar reasons, the only supported generator is ninja.
* revert: "Makefile: use pattern rules for build/.deps (#10366)"dundargoc2024-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 7f6ff829aa2347eb940d8e70a825ea335d8f15ed. The given reasoning and usecase is unsatisfactory. While it is true that it allows to run `make build/bin/nvim`, it can easily be recreated with `ninja -C build bin/nvim` which does the exact same thing. This minor convenience is not worth adding the extra code given how rare this usecase should be.
* build: set deps default build type to Release (#27495)Gregory Anders2024-02-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Debugging dependencies is rare so a Debug build type is usually not needed. In cases where it _is_ needed it is easy to rebuild in Debug mode. But since Release builds are more common, it makes more sense as a default. For Neovim itself we stick with a Debug build as a default, since rebuilding and debugging is done _much_ more frequently than with dependencies (which we _mostly_ expect to "just work"). Also remove the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE variable in the Makefile, since this is set by default in CMake.
* build(docs): separate lint job to validate vimdoc #27227Jongwook Choi2024-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: Separate the lint job (`make lintdoc`) to validate runtime/doc, it is no longer as a part of functionaltest (help_spec). Build (cmake) and CI: - `make lintdoc`: validate vimdoc files and test-generate HTML docs. CI will run this as a part of the "docs" workflow. - `scripts/lintdoc.lua` is added as an entry point (executable script) for validating vimdoc files. scripts/gen_help_html.lua: - Move the tests for validating docs and generating HTMLs from `help_spec.lua` to `gen_help_html`. Added: - `gen_help_html.run_validate()`. - `gen_help_html.test_gen()`. - Do not hard-code `help_dir` to `build/runtime/doc`, but resolve from `$VIMRUNTIME`. Therefore, the `make lintdoc` job will check doc files on `./runtime/doc`, not on `./build/runtime/doc`. - Add type annotations for gen_help_html.
* build: various build improvementsdundargoc2024-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - remove "ran-" prefix from touch files as it's redundant since the they're already in the directory named `touches`. - Include `contrib` when formatting with `make formatlua`. - Use TARGET_FILE generator expression instead of assuming the executable location. - reuse logic that determines whether to use lua or luajit. - add translations to the `nvim` target. Makefile improvements: - rename variable `CMAKE_PRG` to `CMAKE` to make it more consistent with the builtin `MAKE` variable. - stop propagating flags to generator. Users should use cmake for non-standard use cases. - remove `+` prefix from targets. If the user for whatever reason wants to dry-run a target then they should be able to.

* refactor: move some anonymous enums back to non-defs headers (#26622)zeertzjq2023-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | It isn't really useful to put anonymous enums only used as arguments to functions calls in _defs.h headers, as they will only be used by a file that calls those functions, which requires including a non-defs header. Also move os_msg() and os_errmsg() back to message.h, as on Windows they are actual functions instead of macros. Also remove gettext.h and globals.h from private/helpers.h.
