* feat(options): schema, "dict" options, messagesJustin M. Keyes2026-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: Options parsing is still painful for dict-style options. Solution: schema-maxxing => better `opt:get()` (will be the basis for `vim.o()`), unified (and more-detailed) err msgs. - Drop bespoke structure-builder in `_core/options.lua`. - Define `schema` for all non-primitive options (except 'guicursor' and statusline-style options); generate reified keysets `OptKeyDict`). - Generate 'fillchars' => `fcs_tab`, 'listchars' => `lcs_tab`. - `nvim_set_option_value`: - Return the improved structures. Also from `vim.opt.x:get()`. - Eliminate api <=> lua roundtrip, centralize option structure handling. - Improve/unify errors. - Bump ERR_BUFLEN 80 → 256 so the "one of" list isn't truncated. - Eliminate old 'diffopt' order-dependence (`iwhiteall` before `iwhite`) Error samples: Typed-key path (opt_strings_check → diffopt/mousescroll/breakindentopt): E474: Unknown item 'foo' E474: 'context' requires a number E474: 'ver' number is out of range E474: 'algorithm' must be one of: myers, minimal, patience, histogram E474: 'filler' does not take a value Related: - #31084 - #34661 - #31820 - #14739 - #20107 - fix #18875 - :get() returns `{ sbr = true, shift = '3' }` (reified-keyset) instead of `{'sbr', 'shift:3'}` - Setting via table now works too. `object_as_optval_for` `is_map` now recognizes struct options. - fix #30296 - instead of `E474: Invalid argument`, errors now look like: ``` E474: Invalid value 'x', expected one of: single, double: ambiwidth=x E474: Unknown item 'foo': diffopt=foo E474: 'context' requires a number: diffopt=context:x ``` simplify `win_float_parse_option` from #26799.

* refactor(tty): tty.request() #39489Justin M. Keyes2026-04-30
| | | | | | | | Problem: - Various `TermRequest` handlers which all do similar things. - `tty.query` is specific to `XTGETTCAP DCS`, can't be reused for other kinds of terminal queries. Solution: Provide `tty.request()`.
* fix(lua): don't strip debuginfo in precompile module #39191phanium2026-04-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: debug.getinfo on bytecode module/func don't give you detail source info. Solution: - Use `loadstring`+`string.dump` to replace LUAC_PRG(`luac`/`luajit -b`) - `string.dump(…,false)` to generate non-strip version bytecode - `loadstring(…,fname)` to specify the full source name BEFORE: $ nvim --clean +'=debug.getinfo(vim.fn.maparg("]<Space>", "n", 0, 1).callback, "Sl")' --headless +q { currentline = -1, lastlinedefined = 456, linedefined = 452, short_src = "?", source = "=?", what = "Lua" } AFTER: $ nvim --clean +'=debug.getinfo(vim.fn.maparg("]<Space>", "n", 0, 1).callback, "Sl")' --headless +q { currentline = -1, lastlinedefined = 456, linedefined = 452, short_src = "/home/xx/b/neovim/runtime/lua/vim/_core/defaults.lua", source = "@/home/xx/b/neovim/runtime/lua/vim/_core/defaults.lua", what = "Lua" }

* build: ship "_core/*" as bytecode (built-into Nvim binary)Justin M. Keyes2025-12-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: We want to encourage implementing core features in Lua instead of C, but it's clumsy because: - Core Lua code (built into `nvim` so it is available even if VIMRUNTIME is missing/invalid) requires manually updating CMakeLists.txt, or stuffing it into `_editor.lua`. - Core Lua modules are not organized similar to C modules, `_editor.lua` is getting too big. Solution: - Introduce `_core/` where core Lua code can live. All Lua modules added there will automatically be included as bytecode in the `nvim` binary. - Move these core modules into `_core/*`: ``` _defaults.lua _editor.lua _options.lua _system.lua shared.lua ``` TODO: - Move `_extui/ => _core/ui2/`
* refactor(build): split out metadata stepbfredl2025-10-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was part of an attempt to add "git describe" to zig build without re-building too much. This doesn't yet work as zig upstream changes are are also needed, but I think this was a sensible refactor even in isolation, so breaking it out. "API dispatch" doesn't depend on any ui event stuff nor on version, that was just an accident of the metadata collection being crammed into the same file. Remove "manual invocation" instruction. this is going to bitrot anyway. Both cmake and build.zig allows you to extract the command line of a step, so you can debug it separately.
* build(ci): bump zig to 0.15.1 and add more platformsbfredl2025-09-15
| | | | | | - Bump zig version to 0.15.1 and workaround zig fetch hang (ziglang/zig#24916) - add mac os zig build (currently without luajit, linker failure) - Add windows zig build, currently with very limited testing
* refactor(build): don't use the preprocessor when generating headersbfredl2025-08-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using the preprocessor before generating prototypes provides some "niceties" but the places that rely on these are pretty few. Vastly simplifying the BUILD SYSTEM is a better trade-off. Unbalancing { } blocks due to the preprocessor is cringe anyway (think of the tree-sitter trees!), write these in a different way. Add some workarounds for plattform specific features. INCLUDE_GENERATED_DECLARATIONS flag is now technically redundant, but will be cleaned up in a follow-up PR as it is a big mess.

* feat(build): build.zig MVP: build and run functionaltests on linuxbfredl2025-05-02
NEW BUILD SYSTEM! This is a MVP implementation which supports building the "nvim" binary, including cross-compilation for some targets. As an example, you can build a aarch64-macos binary from an x86-64-linux-gnu host, or vice versa Add CI target for build.zig currently for functionaltests on linux x86_64 only Follow up items: - praxis for version and dependency bumping - windows 💀 - full integration of libintl and gettext (or a desicion not to) - update help and API metadata files - installation into a $PREFIX - more tests and linters
