Clojurians Log v2

Is the Vim editor configuration information on the Clojure LSP website relatively up to date? Or would it benefit an update? https://clojure-lsp.io/clients/#vim I've submitted https://github.com/clojure-lsp/clojure-lsp/pull/2079 (not sure if any of that is relevant to vim though). I dont know enough about vim to know what the common approaches are for LSP though.

clojure.core has a function for this, ns-publics Example usage:

;; list of vars in current namespace
(ns-publics *ns*)

;; list of vars in another namespace
(ns-publics 'clojure.string)

Hey, I know about this function. I want to have listview like vim nerdtree plugin which lists all vars with jump too

Ah, I see. LSP provides functionality like that. I use Neovim, so I don't know specifically how to set it up in regular Vim, but there ought to be a way!

What's lsp?

Language Server Protocol. It's a feature built into a lot of editors nowadays. The idea is that you have language servers for specific languages (Clojure has one called clojure-lsp) and they work in any editor that supports LSP. On the other side, you have LSP clients that are built into a bunch of different editors, and they support any language that has a language server.

I just remembered a plugin that I used to use that I enjoyed - it might help you here: https://github.com/liuchengxu/vista.vim

Back when I used it, it didn't support LSP, it was based on ctags instead. Looks like nowadays, it supports LSP, which is great

An advantage of doing this via LSP is that it will always work, even if you don't have a REPL running.

Clojure LSP client suggestions for Vim (don't forget to install clojure-lsp server) https://clojure-lsp.io/clients/#vim Note that not all LSP clients will support all LSP features

Fair warning: I've not been satisfied with any of the LSP clients for Vim. They're slow and flaky. If I have to use the LSP then I run Neovim; its built-in client is pretty sound.

> I want to have listview like vim nerdtree plugin which lists all vars with jump too @mx2000 Sounds like you want to populate a quickfix list. It might be possible for vim-fireplace to pipe its eval output to other commands. The :Last command will output the result of the last eval to a preview buffer. Perhaps that can be converted to a quickfix list?

If you use tags there may be a way to show a window with current file tags and get defined variables 🤔

Strange, shouldn't this be included

Neovim's built-in LSP is 💯

That plugin I posted above, vista.vim, works with ctags as well, if you don't want to take the plunge and set up LSP

But my recommendation would be to set up LSP, because it's amazing.

I need neovim for that?

No, there are LSP client plugins for regular Vim too.

Oh, you mean vista? No, that works in both Neovim and not-Neovim (Oldvim?)
