@dominicm any further progress with it? I'm not sure if I could provide any insight but willing to try if you've got some instructions to recreate.

@jebberjeb I'll have a try later with a more minimal example.

I believe, but haven't confirmed, that it's just using JUDs in an uberjar'd environment

@dominicm interesting. You mentioned you needed UDS support?

that's the default connection mechanism on unixes afaik. otherwise users need special instruction on starting the connector. This way I can spawn it & pass along the var.

https://github.com/bfredl/Neovim.jl this is a kinda good explanation

Your use case is for REPL work right? Not an actual plugin?

It will be an actual plugin.

The plugins I've made so far all use STDIO. What's the advantage of UDS?

oh, they can use stdio? That might make more sense then. Maybe the julia readme is wrong 😛

heh, well they can do any of the three: TCP socket, UDS or STDIO.

I think in the neovim-client api there is a connect or new function that has arity for all 3 strategies, but I'm not sure. I know that from a REPL, obviously you wouldn't want to use STDIO.

No, makes sense. You would want to attach to external instance.

okay, stdio it is
