hi, i’ve been trying to get code completion working with either lein figwheel or boot cljs with no success this is using vim anyone managed to get this working? seems to be fine for standard clojure, but clojurescript seems to fail. i think it’s something to do with integration between fireplace and the clojurescript repl i can evaluate the code, but just can’t seem to get the inline docs or code completion to work

@christopher.paul are you using cider?

i’ve just added the cider nrepl

and it seems to be working now with figwheel

i’d been trying before with boot cljs-repl

but that never seemed to work and feels buggy

figwheel seems to be working now though!

@christopher.paul ime the boot-cljs-repl is more reliable. Boot needs setting up differently in order to use cider-nrepl.

i prefer the look of boot over lein, feels abit like gulp vs grunt

See https://github.com/boot-clj/boot/wiki/Cider-REPL

yea i’ve been through all that

That's the way I attempt to describe it to others too 🙂

i’d rather use boot tbh

We do use boot. Code completion does work there 🙂

hmm

so

first i was trying vim, no luck

so then i tried neovim with decomplete and the cider repl

no luck also

so maybe now i’ll try standard vim again with cider repl with boot

i was following this guide: https://github.com/magomimmo/modern-cljs/blob/master/doc/second-edition/tutorial-02.md

if i run that, i think it runs a repl as part of that task

:Piggieback (adzerk.boot-cljs-repl/repl-env)

that’s the right command ?

It is, yep

it seems to be working for me now

i was at it for hours yesterday

maybe it was an issue with neovim

i’m a java dev atm, so code completion feels important to me at the moment

maybe when i’m a bit more knowledegable in cljs i won’t need it so much

I use neovim with this, it can work 🙂

I rely on completion heavily

hmm

do you use that with deocopmlete?

*deocomplete

were there any other plugins that you had to install to get it working?

also another problem i seem to be having is if i close the vim editor, i lose my connection to the cljs repl

and the only way to get it back seems to be to kill the boot repl -c job and also the cljs-repl task

if you try to re-piggieback once the page has been open, it seems to ignore it

i mean in a new vim session

I've been using ncm, but deocomplete worked too.

have you had the problem above? if you close a vim session, you can’t reconnect to the repl?>

I think I sometimes have issues with it and have to restart the page. It might be because of where reload is though.

yea its like something gets registered and not deregistered

Hmm, nvm.

its the boot repl -c job

seem to have to kick it if i close vim

then also refresh the page

Wow, 190 people in here

Long time (neo)vim user, now getting to do clojure for work. Glad to find this channel.

There's enough of us. I also do clojure professionally with neovim. Happy to answer questions you might have

Awesome, it was your juxt blog post that led me here. Nice to meet you.
