*lsp.txt* LSP
NVIM REFERENCE MANUAL
LSP client/framework *lsp* *LSP*
Nvim supports the Language Server Protocol (LSP), which means it acts as
a client to LSP servers and includes a Lua framework `vim.lsp` for building
enhanced LSP tools.
https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/
LSP facilitates features like go-to-definition, find references, hover,
completion, rename, format, refactor, etc., using semantic whole-project
analysis (unlike |ctags|).
Type |gO| to see the table of contents.
==============================================================================
QUICKSTART *lsp-quickstart*
Nvim provides an LSP client, but the servers are provided by third parties.
Follow these steps to get LSP features:
1. Install language servers using your package manager or by following the
upstream installation instructions. You can find language servers here:
https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/implementors/servers/
2. Use |vim.lsp.config()| to define a configuration for an LSP client
(see https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig for examples).
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.config['luals'] = {
-- Command and arguments to start the server.
cmd = { 'lua-language-server' },
-- Filetypes to automatically attach to.
filetypes = { 'lua' },
-- Sets the "root directory" to the parent directory of the file in the
-- current buffer that contains either a ".luarc.json" or a
-- ".luarc.jsonc" file. Files that share a root directory will reuse
-- the connection to the same LSP server.
-- Nested lists indicate equal priority, see |vim.lsp.Config|.
root_markers = { { '.luarc.json', '.luarc.jsonc' }, '.git' },
-- Specific settings to send to the server. The schema for this is
-- defined by the server. For example the schema for lua-language-server
-- can be found here https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LuaLS/vscode-lua/master/setting/schema.json
settings = {
Lua = {
runtime = {
version = 'LuaJIT',
}
}
}
}
3. Use |vim.lsp.enable()| to enable a configuration.
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.enable('luals')
<
4. Open a code file matching one of the `filetypes` specified in the config.
Note: Depending on the LSP server, you may need to ensure your project has
a |lsp-root_markers| file so the workspace can be recognized.
5. Check that LSP is active ("attached") for the buffer: >vim
:checkhealth vim.lsp
<
6. (Optional) Configure keymaps and autocommands to use LSP features.
|lsp-attach|
==============================================================================
DEFAULTS *lsp-defaults*
When the Nvim LSP client starts it enables diagnostics |vim.diagnostic| (see
|vim.diagnostic.config()| to customize). It also sets various default options,
listed below, if (1) the language server supports the functionality and (2)
the options are empty or were set by the builtin runtime (ftplugin) files. The
options are not restored when the LSP client is stopped or detached.
GLOBAL DEFAULTS
*grr* *gra* *grn* *gri* *grt* *i_CTRL-S*
These GLOBAL keymaps are created unconditionally when Nvim starts:
- "grn" is mapped in Normal mode to |vim.lsp.buf.rename()|
- "gra" is mapped in Normal and Visual mode to |vim.lsp.buf.code_action()|
- "grr" is mapped in Normal mode to |vim.lsp.buf.references()|
- "gri" is mapped in Normal mode to |vim.lsp.buf.implementation()|
- "grt" is mapped in Normal mode to |vim.lsp.buf.type_definition()|
- "gO" is mapped in Normal mode to |vim.lsp.buf.document_symbol()|
- CTRL-S is mapped in Insert mode to |vim.lsp.buf.signature_help()|
BUFFER-LOCAL DEFAULTS
- 'omnifunc' is set to |vim.lsp.omnifunc()|, use |i_CTRL-X_CTRL-O| to trigger
completion.
- 'tagfunc' is set to |vim.lsp.tagfunc()|. This enables features like
go-to-definition, |:tjump|, and keymaps like |CTRL-]|, |CTRL-W_]|,
|CTRL-W_}| to utilize the language server.
- 'formatexpr' is set to |vim.lsp.formatexpr()|, so you can format lines via
|gq| if the language server supports it.
- To opt out of this use |gw| instead of gq, or clear 'formatexpr' on |LspAttach|.
- |K| is mapped to |vim.lsp.buf.hover()| unless |'keywordprg'| is customized or
a custom keymap for `K` exists.
DISABLING DEFAULTS *lsp-defaults-disable*
You can remove GLOBAL keymaps at any time using |vim.keymap.del()| or
|:unmap|. See also |gr-default|.
To remove or override BUFFER-LOCAL defaults, define a |LspAttach| handler: >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspAttach', {
callback = function(args)
-- Unset 'formatexpr'
vim.bo[args.buf].formatexpr = nil
-- Unset 'omnifunc'
vim.bo[args.buf].omnifunc = nil
-- Unmap K
vim.keymap.del('n', 'K', { buffer = args.buf })
end,
})
<
==============================================================================
CONFIG *lsp-config*
You can configure LSP behavior statically via vim.lsp.config(), and
dynamically via |lsp-attach| or |Client:on_attach()|.
Use |vim.lsp.config()| to define, and selectively enable, LSP configurations.
This is basically a wrapper around |vim.lsp.start()| which allows you to share
and merge configs (which may be provided by Nvim or third-party plugins).
When an LSP client starts, it resolves its configuration by merging from the
following (in increasing priority):
1. Configuration defined for the `'*'` name.
2. Configuration from the result of merging all tables returned by
`lsp/<config>.lua` files in 'runtimepath' for the config named `<config>`.
3. Configurations defined anywhere else.
Note: The merge semantics of configurations follow the behaviour of
|vim.tbl_deep_extend()|.
Example: given the following configs... >lua
-- Defined in init.lua
vim.lsp.config('*', {
capabilities = {
textDocument = {
semanticTokens = {
multilineTokenSupport = true,
}
}
},
root_markers = { '.git' },
})
-- Defined in <rtp>/lsp/clangd.lua
return {
cmd = { 'clangd' },
root_markers = { '.clangd', 'compile_commands.json' },
filetypes = { 'c', 'cpp' },
}
-- Defined in init.lua
vim.lsp.config('clangd', {
filetypes = { 'c' },
})
<
...the merged result is: >lua
{
-- From the clangd configuration in <rtp>/lsp/clangd.lua
cmd = { 'clangd' },
-- From the clangd configuration in <rtp>/lsp/clangd.lua
-- Overrides the "*" configuration in init.lua
root_markers = { '.clangd', 'compile_commands.json' },
-- From the clangd configuration in init.lua
-- Overrides the clangd configuration in <rtp>/lsp/clangd.lua
filetypes = { 'c' },
-- From the "*" configuration in init.lua
capabilities = {
textDocument = {
semanticTokens = {
multilineTokenSupport = true,
}
}
}
}
<
*lsp-attach*
To use LSP features beyond those provided by Nvim (see |lsp-buf|), you can set
keymaps and options on |Client:on_attach()| or |LspAttach|. Not all language
servers provide the same capabilities; check `supports_method()` in your
LspAttach handler.
*lsp-lint* *lsp-format*
Example: Enable auto-completion and auto-formatting ("linting"): >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspAttach', {
group = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup('my.lsp', {}),
callback = function(args)
local client = assert(vim.lsp.get_client_by_id(args.data.client_id))
if client:supports_method('textDocument/implementation') then
-- Create a keymap for vim.lsp.buf.implementation ...
end
-- Enable auto-completion. Note: Use CTRL-Y to select an item. |complete_CTRL-Y|
if client:supports_method('textDocument/completion') then
-- Optional: trigger autocompletion on EVERY keypress. May be slow!
-- local chars = {}; for i = 32, 126 do table.insert(chars, string.char(i)) end
-- client.server_capabilities.completionProvider.triggerCharacters = chars
vim.lsp.completion.enable(true, client.id, args.buf, {autotrigger = true})
end
-- Auto-format ("lint") on save.
-- Usually not needed if server supports "textDocument/willSaveWaitUntil".
if not client:supports_method('textDocument/willSaveWaitUntil')
and client:supports_method('textDocument/formatting') then
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('BufWritePre', {
group = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup('my.lsp', {clear=false}),
buffer = args.buf,
callback = function()
vim.lsp.buf.format({ bufnr = args.buf, id = client.id, timeout_ms = 1000 })
end,
})
end
end,
})

To see the capabilities for a given server, try this in a LSP-enabled buffer: >vim
:lua =vim.lsp.get_clients()[1].server_capabilities
================================================================================
FAQ *lsp-faq*
- Q: How to force-reload LSP?
- A: Stop all clients, then reload the buffer. >vim
:lua vim.lsp.stop_client(vim.lsp.get_clients())
:edit
- Q: Why isn't completion working?
- A: In the buffer where you want to use LSP, check that 'omnifunc' is set to
"v:lua.vim.lsp.omnifunc": `:verbose set omnifunc?`
- Some other plugin may be overriding the option. To avoid that you could
set the option in an |after-directory| ftplugin, e.g.
"after/ftplugin/python.vim".
- Q: How do I run a request synchronously (e.g. for formatting on file save)?
- A: Check if the function has an `async` parameter and set the value to
false. E.g. code formatting: >vim
" Auto-format *.rs (rust) files prior to saving them
" (async = false is the default for format)
autocmd BufWritePre *.rs lua vim.lsp.buf.format({ async = false })

- Q: How to avoid my own lsp/ folder being overridden?
- A: Place your configs under "after/lsp/". Files in "after/lsp/" are loaded
after those in "nvim/lsp/", so your settings will take precedence over
the defaults provided by nvim-lspconfig. See also: |after-directory|
*lsp-vs-treesitter*
- Q: How do LSP, Treesitter and Ctags compare?
- A: LSP requires a client and language server. The language server uses
semantic analysis to understand code at a project level. This provides
language servers with the ability to rename across files, find
definitions in external libraries and more.
|treesitter| is a language parsing library that provides excellent tools
for incrementally parsing text and handling errors. This makes it a great
fit for editors to understand the contents of the current file for things
like syntax highlighting, simple goto-definitions, scope analysis and
more.
A |ctags|-like program can generate a |tags| file that allows Nvim to
jump to definitions, provide simple completions via |i_CTRL-X_CTRL-]|
command. It is not as featureful and doesn't have semantic understanding,
but it is fast, lightweight and useful for navigating polyglot projects.

LSP API *lsp-api*
The |lsp-core| API provides core functions for creating and managing clients.
The |lsp-buf| functions perform operations for LSP clients attached to the
current buffer.
*lsp-method*
Requests and notifications defined by the LSP specification are referred to as
"LSP methods". These are handled by Lua |lsp-handler| functions.
The |vim.lsp.handlers| global table defines default handlers (only for
server-to-client requests/notifications, not client-to-server). Note: depends
on server support; they won't run if your server doesn't support them.
You can list them with: >vim
:lua vim.print(vim.tbl_keys(vim.lsp.handlers))
<
They are also listed below.
- `'callHierarchy/incomingCalls'`
- `'callHierarchy/outgoingCalls'`
- `'client/registerCapability'`
- `'client/unregisterCapability'`
- `'signature_help'`
- `'textDocument/codeLens'`
- `'textDocument/completion'`
- `'textDocument/diagnostic'`
- `'textDocument/documentHighlight'`

*lsp-handler*
LSP handlers are functions that handle |lsp-response|s to requests made by Nvim
to the server. (Notifications, as opposed to requests, are fire-and-forget:
there is no response, so they can't be handled. |lsp-notification|)
Each response handler has this signature: >
function(err, result, ctx)
<
Parameters: ~
• {err} (`table|nil`) Error info dict, or `nil` if the request
completed.
• {result} (`Result|Params|nil`) `result` key of the |lsp-response| or
`nil` if the request failed.
• {ctx} (`table`) Table of calling state associated with the
handler, with these keys:
• {method} (`string`) |lsp-method| name.
• {client_id} (`number`) |vim.lsp.Client| identifier.
• {bufnr} (`Buffer`) Buffer handle.
• {params} (`table|nil`) Request parameters table.
• {version} (`number`) Document version at time of
request. Handlers can compare this to the
current document version to check if the
response is "stale". See also |b:changedtick|.
Returns: ~
Two values `result, err` where `err` is shaped like an RPC error: >
{ code, message, data? }
< You can use |vim.lsp.rpc.rpc_response_error()| to create this object.
*lsp-handler-resolution*
Handlers can be set by (in increasing priority):
*vim.lsp.handlers*
- Directly calling a LSP method via |Client:request()|. This is the only way
to "override" the default client-to-server request handling (by
side-stepping `vim.lsp.buf` and related interfaces). >lua
local client = assert(vim.lsp.get_clients()[1])
client:request('textDocument/definition')
- Setting a field in `vim.lsp.handlers`. This global table contains the
default mappings of |lsp-method| names to handlers. (Note: only for
server-to-client requests/notifications, not client-to-server.)
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.handlers['textDocument/publishDiagnostics'] = my_custom_diagnostics_handler
- Passing a {handlers} parameter to |vim.lsp.start()|. This sets the default
|lsp-handler| for a specific server. (Note: only for server-to-client
requests/notifications, not client-to-server.)
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.start {
..., -- Other configuration omitted.
handlers = {
['textDocument/publishDiagnostics'] = my_custom_diagnostics_handler
},
}
- Passing a {handler} parameter to |vim.lsp.buf_request_all()|. This sets the
|lsp-handler| ONLY for the given request(s).
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.buf_request_all(
0,
'textDocument/publishDiagnostics',
my_request_params,
my_handler
)
<
*vim.lsp.log_levels*
Log levels are defined in |vim.log.levels|
VIM.LSP.PROTOCOL *vim.lsp.protocol*
Module `vim.lsp.protocol` defines constants dictated by the LSP specification,
and helper functions for creating protocol-related objects.
https://github.com/microsoft/language-server-protocol/raw/gh-pages/_specifications/specification-3-14.md
For example `vim.lsp.protocol.ErrorCodes` allows reverse lookup by number or
name: >lua
vim.lsp.protocol.TextDocumentSyncKind.Full == 1
vim.lsp.protocol.TextDocumentSyncKind[1] == "Full"
<
*lsp-response*
LSP response shape:
https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/specification-current/#responseMessage
*lsp-notification*
LSP notification shape:
https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/specification-current/#notificationMessage
================================================================================
LSP HIGHLIGHT *lsp-highlight*
Reference Highlights:
Highlight groups that are meant to be used by |vim.lsp.buf.document_highlight()|.
You can see more about the differences in types here:
https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specification#textDocument_documentHighlight
*hl-LspReferenceText*
LspReferenceText used for highlighting "text" references
*hl-LspReferenceRead*
LspReferenceRead used for highlighting "read" references
*hl-LspReferenceWrite*
LspReferenceWrite used for highlighting "write" references
*hl-LspReferenceTarget*
LspReferenceTarget used for highlighting reference targets (e.g. in a
hover range)
*hl-LspInlayHint*
LspInlayHint used for highlighting inlay hints
*lsp-highlight-codelens*
Highlight groups related to |lsp-codelens| functionality.
*hl-LspCodeLens*
LspCodeLens
Used to color the virtual text of the codelens. See
|nvim_buf_set_extmark()|.
LspCodeLensSeparator *hl-LspCodeLensSeparator*
Used to color the separator between two or more code lenses.
*lsp-highlight-signature*
Highlight groups related to |vim.lsp.handlers.signature_help()|.
*hl-LspSignatureActiveParameter*
LspSignatureActiveParameter
Used to highlight the active parameter in the signature help. See
|vim.lsp.handlers.signature_help()|.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LSP SEMANTIC HIGHLIGHTS *lsp-semantic-highlight*
When available, the LSP client highlights code using |lsp-semantic_tokens|,
which are another way that LSP servers can provide information about source
code. Note that this is in addition to treesitter syntax highlighting;
semantic highlighting does not replace syntax highlighting.
The server will typically provide one token per identifier in the source code.
The token will have a `type` such as "function" or "variable", and 0 or more
`modifier`s such as "readonly" or "deprecated." The standard types and
modifiers are described here:
https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specification/#textDocument_semanticTokens
LSP servers may also use off-spec types and modifiers.
The LSP client adds one or more highlights for each token. The highlight
groups are derived from the token's type and modifiers:
• `@lsp.type.<type>.<ft>` for the type
• `@lsp.mod.<mod>.<ft>` for each modifier
• `@lsp.typemod.<type>.<mod>.<ft>` for each modifier
Use |:Inspect| to view the highlights for a specific token. Use |:hi| or
|nvim_set_hl()| to change the appearance of semantic highlights: >vim
hi @lsp.type.function guifg=Yellow " function names are yellow
hi @lsp.type.variable.lua guifg=Green " variables in lua are green
hi @lsp.mod.deprecated gui=strikethrough " deprecated is crossed out
hi @lsp.typemod.function.async guifg=Blue " async functions are blue
<
The value |vim.hl.priorities|`.semantic_tokens` is the priority of the
`@lsp.type.*` highlights. The `@lsp.mod.*` and `@lsp.typemod.*` highlights
have priorities one and two higher, respectively.
You can disable semantic highlights by clearing the highlight groups: >lua
-- Hide semantic highlights for functions
vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, '@lsp.type.function', {})
-- Hide all semantic highlights
for _, group in ipairs(vim.fn.getcompletion("@lsp", "highlight")) do
vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, group, {})
end
<
You probably want these inside a |ColorScheme| autocommand.
Use |LspTokenUpdate| and |vim.lsp.semantic_tokens.highlight_token()| for more
complex highlighting.
The following is a list of standard captures used in queries for Nvim,
highlighted according to the current colorscheme (use |:Inspect| on one to see
the exact definition):
@lsp.type.class Identifiers that declare or reference a class type
@lsp.type.comment Tokens that represent a comment
@lsp.type.decorator Identifiers that declare or reference decorators and annotations
@lsp.type.enum Identifiers that declare or reference an enumeration type

@lsp.type.keyword Tokens that represent a language keyword
@lsp.type.macro Identifiers that declare a macro
@lsp.type.method Identifiers that declare a member function or method

==============================================================================
EVENTS *lsp-events*
LspAttach *LspAttach*
After an LSP client performs "initialize" and attaches to a buffer. The
|autocmd-pattern| is the buffer name. The client ID is passed in the
Lua handler |event-data| argument.
Example: >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspAttach', {
callback = function(ev)
local client = vim.lsp.get_client_by_id(ev.data.client_id)
-- ...
end
})
<
Note: If the LSP server performs dynamic registration, capabilities may be
registered any time _after_ LspAttach. In that case you may want to handle
the "registerCapability" event.
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.handlers['client/registerCapability'] = (function(overridden)
return function(err, res, ctx)
local result = overridden(err, res, ctx)
local client = vim.lsp.get_client_by_id(ctx.client_id)
if not client then
return
end
for bufnr, _ in pairs(client.attached_buffers) do
-- Call your custom on_attach logic...
-- my_on_attach(client, bufnr)
end
return result
end
end)(vim.lsp.handlers['client/registerCapability'])
LspDetach *LspDetach*
Just before an LSP client detaches from a buffer. The |autocmd-pattern| is
the buffer name. The client ID is passed in the Lua handler |event-data|
argument.
Example: >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspDetach', {
callback = function(args)
-- Get the detaching client
local client = vim.lsp.get_client_by_id(args.data.client_id)
-- Remove the autocommand to format the buffer on save, if it exists
if client:supports_method('textDocument/formatting') then
vim.api.nvim_clear_autocmds({
event = 'BufWritePre',
buffer = args.buf,
})
end
end,
})
<
LspNotify *LspNotify*
This event is triggered after each successful notification sent to an
LSP server.
The client_id, LSP method, and parameters are sent in the Lua handler
|event-data| table argument.
Example: >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspNotify', {
callback = function(args)
local bufnr = args.buf
local client_id = args.data.client_id
local method = args.data.method
local params = args.data.params
-- do something with the notification
if method == 'textDocument/...' then
update_buffer(bufnr)
end
end,
})
<
LspProgress *LspProgress*
Upon receipt of a progress notification from the server. Notifications can
be polled from a `progress` ring buffer of a |vim.lsp.Client| or use
|vim.lsp.status()| to get an aggregate message.
If the server sends a "work done progress", the `pattern` is set to `kind`
(one of `begin`, `report` or `end`).
The Lua handler |event-data| argument has `client_id` and `params`
properties, where `params` is the request params sent by the server (see
`lsp.ProgressParams`).
Example: >vim
autocmd LspProgress * redrawstatus
<
LspRequest *LspRequest*
For each request sent to an LSP server, this event is triggered for
every change to the request's status. The status can be one of
`pending`, `complete`, or `cancel` and is sent as the {type} on the
"data" table passed to the callback function.
It triggers when the initial request is sent ({type} == `pending`) and
when the LSP server responds ({type} == `complete`). If a cancellation
is requested using `client.cancel_request(request_id)`, then this event
will trigger with {type} == `cancel`.
The Lua handler |event-data| argument has the client ID, request ID, and
request (described at |vim.lsp.Client|, {requests} field). If the request
type is `complete`, the request will be deleted from the client's pending
requests table after processing the event handlers.
Example: >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspRequest', {
callback = function(args)
local bufnr = args.buf
local client_id = args.data.client_id
local request_id = args.data.request_id
local request = args.data.request
if request.type == 'pending' then
-- do something with pending requests
track_pending(client_id, bufnr, request_id, request)
elseif request.type == 'cancel' then
-- do something with pending cancel requests
track_canceling(client_id, bufnr, request_id, request)
elseif request.type == 'complete' then
-- do something with finished requests. this pending
-- request entry is about to be removed since it is complete
track_finish(client_id, bufnr, request_id, request)
end
end,
})
<
LspTokenUpdate *LspTokenUpdate*
When a visible semantic token is sent or updated by the LSP server, or
when an existing token becomes visible for the first time. The
|autocmd-pattern| is the buffer name. The Lua handler |event-data|
argument has the client ID and token (see
|vim.lsp.semantic_tokens.get_at_pos()|).
Example: >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspTokenUpdate', {
callback = function(args)
local token = args.data.token
if token.type == 'variable' and not token.modifiers.readonly then
vim.lsp.semantic_tokens.highlight_token(
token, args.buf, args.data.client_id, 'MyMutableVariableHighlight'
)
end
end,
})
<
Note: doing anything other than calling
|vim.lsp.semantic_tokens.highlight_token()| is considered experimental.
==============================================================================
Lua module: vim.lsp *lsp-core*
*vim.lsp.Config*
Extends: |vim.lsp.ClientConfig|
Fields: ~
• {cmd}? (`string[]|fun(dispatchers: vim.lsp.rpc.Dispatchers, config: vim.lsp.ClientConfig): vim.lsp.rpc.PublicClient`)
See `cmd` in |vim.lsp.ClientConfig|. See also
`reuse_client` to dynamically decide (per-buffer)
when `cmd` should be re-invoked.
• {filetypes}? (`string[]`) Filetypes the client will attach to, if
activated by `vim.lsp.enable()`. If not provided, the
client will attach to all filetypes.
• {reuse_client}? (`fun(client: vim.lsp.Client, config: vim.lsp.ClientConfig): boolean`)
Predicate which decides if a client should be
re-used. Used on all running clients. The default
implementation re-uses a client if name and root_dir
matches.
• {root_dir}? (`string|fun(bufnr: integer, on_dir:fun(root_dir?:string))`)
*lsp-root_dir()* Decides the workspace root: the
directory where the LSP server will base its
workspaceFolders, rootUri, and rootPath on
initialization. The function form must call the
`on_dir` callback to provide the root dir, or LSP
will not be activated for the buffer. Thus a
`root_dir()` function can dynamically decide
per-buffer whether to activate (or skip) LSP. See
example at |vim.lsp.enable()|.
• {root_markers}? (`(string|string[])[]`) *lsp-root_markers*
Filename(s) (".git/", "package.json", …) used to
decide the workspace root. Unused if `root_dir` is
defined. The list order decides priority. To indicate
"equal priority", specify names in a nested list
`{ { 'a.txt', 'b.lua' }, ... }`.
For each item, Nvim will search upwards (from the
buffer file) for that marker, or list of markers;
search stops at the first directory containing that
marker, and the directory is used as the root dir
(workspace folder).
Example: Find the first ancestor directory containing
file or directory "stylua.toml"; if not found, find
the first ancestor containing ".git": >lua
root_markers = { 'stylua.toml', '.git' }
<
Example: Find the first ancestor directory containing
EITHER "stylua.toml" or ".luarc.json"; if not found,
find the first ancestor containing ".git": >lua
root_markers = { { 'stylua.toml', '.luarc.json' }, '.git' }
<
buf_attach_client({bufnr}, {client_id}) *vim.lsp.buf_attach_client()*

• {client_id} (`integer`) Client id
Return: ~
(`boolean`) success `true` if client was attached successfully;
`false` otherwise
buf_detach_client({bufnr}, {client_id}) *vim.lsp.buf_detach_client()*
Detaches client from the specified buffer. Note: While the server is
notified that the text document (buffer) was closed, it is still able to
send notifications should it ignore this notification.
Parameters: ~
• {bufnr} (`integer`) Buffer handle, or 0 for current
• {client_id} (`integer`) Client id
buf_is_attached({bufnr}, {client_id}) *vim.lsp.buf_is_attached()*
Checks if a buffer is attached for a particular client.
Parameters: ~
• {bufnr} (`integer`) Buffer handle, or 0 for current
• {client_id} (`integer`) the client id
buf_notify({bufnr}, {method}, {params}) *vim.lsp.buf_notify()*
Send a notification to a server
Parameters: ~
• {bufnr} (`integer?`) The number of the buffer
• {method} (`string`) Name of the request method
• {params} (`any`) Arguments to send to the server
Return: ~
(`boolean`) success true if any client returns true; false otherwise
*vim.lsp.buf_request_all()*
buf_request_all({bufnr}, {method}, {params}, {handler})
Sends an async request for all active clients attached to the buffer and
executes the `handler` callback with the combined result.
Parameters: ~
• {bufnr} (`integer`) Buffer handle, or 0 for current.
• {method} (`string`) LSP method name
• {params} (`table|(fun(client: vim.lsp.Client, bufnr: integer): table?)?`)
Parameters to send to the server. Can also be passed as a
function that returns the params table for cases where
parameters are specific to the client.
• {handler} (`function`) Handler called after all requests are
completed. Server results are passed as a
`client_id:result` map.
Return: ~
(`function`) cancel Function that cancels all requests.
*vim.lsp.buf_request_sync()*
buf_request_sync({bufnr}, {method}, {params}, {timeout_ms})
Sends a request to all server and waits for the response of all of them.
Calls |vim.lsp.buf_request_all()| but blocks Nvim while awaiting the
result. Parameters are the same as |vim.lsp.buf_request_all()| but the
result is different. Waits a maximum of {timeout_ms}.
Parameters: ~
• {bufnr} (`integer`) Buffer handle, or 0 for current.
• {method} (`string`) LSP method name
• {params} (`table?`) Parameters to send to the server
• {timeout_ms} (`integer?`, default: `1000`) Maximum time in
milliseconds to wait for a result.
Return (multiple): ~
(`table<integer, {error: lsp.ResponseError?, result: any}>?`) result
Map of client_id:request_result.
(`string?`) err On timeout, cancel, or error, `err` is a string
describing the failure reason, and `result` is nil.
client_is_stopped({client_id}) *vim.lsp.client_is_stopped()*
Checks whether a client is stopped.
Parameters: ~
• {client_id} (`integer`)
Return: ~
(`boolean`) stopped true if client is stopped, false otherwise.
commands *vim.lsp.commands*
Registry for client side commands. This is an extension point for plugins
to handle custom commands which are not part of the core language server
protocol specification.
The registry is a table where the key is a unique command name, and the
value is a function which is called if any LSP action (code action, code
lenses, ...) triggers the command.
If an LSP response contains a command for which no matching entry is
available in this registry, the command will be executed via the LSP
server using `workspace/executeCommand`.
The first argument to the function will be the `Command`: Command title:
String command: String arguments?: any[]
The second argument is the `ctx` of |lsp-handler|
config({name}, {cfg}) *vim.lsp.config()*
Update the configuration for an LSP client.
Use name '*' to set default configuration for all clients.
Can also be table-assigned to redefine the configuration for a client.
Examples:
• Add a root marker for all clients: >lua
vim.lsp.config('*', {
root_markers = { '.git' },
})
<
• Add additional capabilities to all clients: >lua
vim.lsp.config('*', {
capabilities = {
textDocument = {
semanticTokens = {
multilineTokenSupport = true,
}
}
}
})
<
• (Re-)define the configuration for clangd: >lua
vim.lsp.config.clangd = {
cmd = {
'clangd',
'--clang-tidy',
'--background-index',
'--offset-encoding=utf-8',
},
root_markers = { '.clangd', 'compile_commands.json' },
filetypes = { 'c', 'cpp' },
}
<
• Get configuration for luals: >lua
local cfg = vim.lsp.config.luals
<
Parameters: ~
• {name} (`string`)
• {cfg} (`vim.lsp.Config`) See |vim.lsp.Config|.
enable({name}, {enable}) *vim.lsp.enable()*
Auto-starts LSP when a buffer is opened, based on the |lsp-config|
`filetypes`, `root_markers`, and `root_dir` fields.
Examples: >lua
vim.lsp.enable('clangd')
vim.lsp.enable({'luals', 'pyright'})
<
Example: *lsp-restart* Passing `false` stops and detaches the client(s).
Thus you can "restart" LSP by disabling and re-enabling a given config: >lua
vim.lsp.enable('clangd', false)
vim.lsp.enable('clangd', true)
<
Example: To dynamically decide whether LSP is activated, define a
|lsp-root_dir()| function which calls `on_dir()` only when you want that
config to activate: >lua
vim.lsp.config('lua_ls', {
root_dir = function(bufnr, on_dir)
if not vim.fn.bufname(bufnr):match('%.txt$') then
on_dir(vim.fn.getcwd())
end
end
})
<
Parameters: ~
• {name} (`string|string[]`) Name(s) of client(s) to enable.
• {enable} (`boolean?`) `true|nil` to enable, `false` to disable
(actively stops and detaches clients as needed)
foldclose({kind}, {winid}) *vim.lsp.foldclose()*
Close all {kind} of folds in the the window with {winid}.
To automatically fold imports when opening a file, you can use an autocmd: >lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspNotify', {
callback = function(args)
if args.data.method == 'textDocument/didOpen' then
vim.lsp.foldclose('imports', vim.fn.bufwinid(args.buf))
end
end,
})
<
Parameters: ~
• {kind} (`lsp.FoldingRangeKind`) Kind to close, one of "comment",
"imports" or "region".
• {winid} (`integer?`) Defaults to the current window.
foldexpr({lnum}) *vim.lsp.foldexpr()*
Provides an interface between the built-in client and a `foldexpr`
function.
To use, set 'foldmethod' to "expr" and set the value of 'foldexpr': >lua
vim.o.foldmethod = 'expr'
vim.o.foldexpr = 'v:lua.vim.lsp.foldexpr()'
<
Or use it only when supported by checking for the
"textDocument/foldingRange" capability in an |LspAttach| autocommand.
Example: >lua
vim.o.foldmethod = 'expr'
-- Default to treesitter folding
vim.o.foldexpr = 'v:lua.vim.treesitter.foldexpr()'
-- Prefer LSP folding if client supports it
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspAttach', {
callback = function(args)
local client = vim.lsp.get_client_by_id(args.data.client_id)
if client:supports_method('textDocument/foldingRange') then
local win = vim.api.nvim_get_current_win()
vim.wo[win][0].foldexpr = 'v:lua.vim.lsp.foldexpr()'
end
end,
})
<
Parameters: ~
• {lnum} (`integer`) line number
foldtext() *vim.lsp.foldtext()*
Provides a `foldtext` function that shows the `collapsedText` retrieved,
defaults to the first folded line if `collapsedText` is not provided.
formatexpr({opts}) *vim.lsp.formatexpr()*
Provides an interface between the built-in client and a `formatexpr`
function.
Currently only supports a single client. This can be set via
`setlocal formatexpr=v:lua.vim.lsp.formatexpr()` or (more typically) in
`on_attach` via
`vim.bo[bufnr].formatexpr = 'v:lua.vim.lsp.formatexpr(#{timeout_ms:250})'`.
Parameters: ~

Return: ~
(`string`) path to log file
is_enabled({name}) *vim.lsp.is_enabled()*
Checks if the given LSP config is enabled (globally, not per-buffer).
Unlike `vim.lsp.config['…']`, this does not have the side-effect of
resolving the config.
Parameters: ~
• {name} (`string`) Config name
Return: ~
(`boolean`)
omnifunc({findstart}, {base}) *vim.lsp.omnifunc()*
Implements 'omnifunc' compatible LSP completion.
Parameters: ~

• {base} (`integer`) findstart=0, text to match against
Return: ~
(`integer|table`) Decided by {findstart}:
• findstart=0: column where the completion starts, or -2 or -3
• findstart=1: list of matches (actually just calls |complete()|)
See also: ~
• |complete-functions|
• |complete-items|
• |CompleteDone|
set_log_level({level}) *vim.lsp.set_log_level()*
Sets the global log level for LSP logging.
Levels by name: "TRACE", "DEBUG", "INFO", "WARN", "ERROR", "OFF"
Level numbers begin with "TRACE" at 0
Use `lsp.log_levels` for reverse lookup.
Parameters: ~
• {level} (`integer|string`) the case insensitive level name or number
See also: ~
• |vim.lsp.log_levels|
start({config}, {opts}) *vim.lsp.start()*
Create a new LSP client and start a language server or reuses an already
running client if one is found matching `name` and `root_dir`. Attaches
the current buffer to the client.
Example: >lua
vim.lsp.start({
name = 'my-server-name',
cmd = {'name-of-language-server-executable'},
root_dir = vim.fs.root(0, {'pyproject.toml', 'setup.py'}),
})
<
See |vim.lsp.ClientConfig| for all available options. The most important
are:
• `name` arbitrary name for the LSP client. Should be unique per language
server.
• `cmd` command string[] or function.
• `root_dir` path to the project root. By default this is used to decide
if an existing client should be re-used. The example above uses
|vim.fs.root()| to detect the root by traversing the file system upwards
starting from the current directory until either a `pyproject.toml` or
`setup.py` file is found.
• `workspace_folders` list of `{ uri:string, name: string }` tables
specifying the project root folders used by the language server. If
`nil` the property is derived from `root_dir` for convenience.
Language servers use this information to discover metadata like the
dependencies of your project and they tend to index the contents within
the project folder.
To ensure a language server is only started for languages it can handle,
make sure to call |vim.lsp.start()| within a |FileType| autocmd. Either
use |:au|, |nvim_create_autocmd()| or put the call in a
`ftplugin/<filetype_name>.lua` (See |ftplugin-name|)
Parameters: ~
• {config} (`vim.lsp.ClientConfig`) Configuration for the server. See
|vim.lsp.ClientConfig|.
• {opts} (`table?`) Optional keyword arguments.
• {reuse_client}?
(`fun(client: vim.lsp.Client, config: vim.lsp.ClientConfig): boolean`)
Predicate used to decide if a client should be re-used.
Used on all running clients. The default implementation
re-uses a client if it has the same name and if the given
workspace folders (or root_dir) are all included in the
client's workspace folders.
• {bufnr}? (`integer`) Buffer handle to attach to if
starting or re-using a client (0 for current).
• {attach}? (`boolean`) Whether to attach the client to a
buffer (default true). If set to `false`, `reuse_client`
and `bufnr` will be ignored.
• {silent}? (`boolean`) Suppress error reporting if the LSP
server fails to start (default false).
Return: ~
(`integer?`) client_id
status() *vim.lsp.status()*
Consumes the latest progress messages from all clients and formats them as
a string. Empty if there are no clients or if no new messages
Return: ~
(`string`)
stop_client({client_id}, {force}) *vim.lsp.stop_client()*
Stops a client(s).
You can also use the `stop()` function on a |vim.lsp.Client| object. To
stop all clients: >lua
vim.lsp.stop_client(vim.lsp.get_clients())
<
By default asks the server to shutdown, unless stop was requested already
for this client, then force-shutdown is attempted.
Parameters: ~
• {client_id} (`integer|integer[]|vim.lsp.Client[]`) id, list of id's,
or list of |vim.lsp.Client| objects
• {force} (`boolean?`) shutdown forcefully
tagfunc({pattern}, {flags}) *vim.lsp.tagfunc()*
Provides an interface between the built-in client and 'tagfunc'.
When used with normal mode commands (e.g. |CTRL-]|) this will invoke the
"textDocument/definition" LSP method to find the tag under the cursor.
Otherwise, uses "workspace/symbol". If no results are returned from any
LSP servers, falls back to using built-in tags.
Parameters: ~
• {pattern} (`string`) Pattern used to find a workspace symbol
• {flags} (`string`) See |tag-function|
Return: ~
(`table[]`) tags A list of matching tags

|vim.empty_dict()|, else it will be encoded
as an array.
• {cmd} (`string[]|fun(dispatchers: vim.lsp.rpc.Dispatchers, config: vim.lsp.ClientConfig): vim.lsp.rpc.PublicClient`)
Command `string[]` that launches the language
server (treated as in |jobstart()|, must be

"~" are not expanded), or function that creates
an RPC client. Function receives a
`dispatchers` table and the resolved `config`,
and must return a table with member functions

is called if any LSP action (code action, code
lenses, …) triggers the command.
• {detached}? (`boolean`, default: `true`) Daemonize the
server process so that it runs in a separate
process group from Nvim. Nvim will shutdown the
process on exit, but if Nvim fails to exit
cleanly this could leave behind orphaned server
processes.
• {flags}? (`table`) A table with flags for the client.
The current (experimental) flags are:
• {allow_incremental_sync}? (`boolean`,
default: `true`) Allow using incremental sync
for buffer edits

`150`) Debounce `didChange` notifications to
the server by the given number in
milliseconds. No debounce occurs if `nil`.
• {exit_timeout} (`integer|false`, default:

exit cleanly after sending the "shutdown"
request before sending kill -15. If set to
false, nvim exits immediately after sending

Language ID as string. Defaults to the buffer
filetype.
• {handlers}? (`table<string,function>`) Map of LSP method
names to |lsp-handler|s.

encoding" in LSP spec. The encoding that the
LSP server expects, used for communication. Not
validated. Can be modified in `on_init` before
text is sent to the server.
• {on_attach}? (`elem_or_list<fun(client: vim.lsp.Client, bufnr: integer)>`)
Callback invoked when client attaches to a
buffer.
• {on_error}? (`fun(code: integer, err: string)`) Callback
invoked when the client operation throws an
error. `code` is a number describing the error.
Other arguments may be passed depending on the
error kind. See `vim.lsp.rpc.client_errors` for
possible errors. Use
`vim.lsp.rpc.client_errors[code]` to get
human-friendly name.
• {on_exit}? (`elem_or_list<fun(code: integer, signal: integer, client_id: integer)>`)
Callback invoked on client exit.
• code: exit code of the process
• signal: number describing the signal used to
terminate (if any)
• client_id: client handle
• {on_init}? (`elem_or_list<fun(client: vim.lsp.Client, init_result: lsp.InitializeResult)>`)
Callback invoked after LSP "initialize", where
`result` is a table of `capabilities` and
anything else the server may send. For example,
clangd sends `init_result.offsetEncoding` if
`capabilities.offsetEncoding` was sent to it.
You can only modify the
`client.offset_encoding` here before any
notifications are sent.
• {root_dir}? (`string`) Directory where the LSP server will
base its workspaceFolders, rootUri, and
rootPath on initialization.
• {settings}? (`lsp.LSPObject`) Map of language
server-specific settings, decided by the
client. Sent to the LS if requested via
`workspace/configuration`. Keys are
case-sensitive.
• {trace}? (`'off'|'messages'|'verbose'`, default: "off")
Passed directly to the language server in the
initialize request. Invalid/empty values will
• {workspace_folders}? (`lsp.WorkspaceFolder[]`) List of workspace
folders passed to the language server. For
backwards compatibility rootUri and rootPath
are derived from the first workspace folder in
this list. Can be `null` if the client supports
workspace folders but none are configured. See
`workspaceFolders` in LSP spec.
• {workspace_required}? (`boolean`, default: `false`) Server requires a
workspace (no "single file" support). Note:
Without a workspace, cross-file features
(navigation, hover) may or may not work
depending on the language server, even if the
server doesn't require a workspace.

Lua module: vim.lsp.completion *lsp-completion*
The `vim.lsp.completion` module enables insert-mode completion driven by an
LSP server. Call `enable()` to make it available through Nvim builtin
completion (via the |CompleteDone| event). Specify `autotrigger=true` to
activate "auto-completion" when you type any of the server-defined
`triggerCharacters`. Use CTRL-Y to select an item from the completion menu.
|complete_CTRL-Y|
Example: activate LSP-driven auto-completion: >lua
-- Works best with completeopt=noselect.
-- Use CTRL-Y to select an item. |complete_CTRL-Y|
vim.cmd[[set completeopt+=menuone,noselect,popup]]
vim.lsp.start({
name = 'ts_ls',
cmd = …,
on_attach = function(client, bufnr)
vim.lsp.completion.enable(true, client.id, bufnr, {
autotrigger = true,
convert = function(item)
return { abbr = item.label:gsub('%b()', '') }
end,
})
end,
})
<
*lsp-autocompletion*
The LSP `triggerCharacters` field decides when to trigger autocompletion. If
you want to trigger on EVERY keypress you can either:
• Extend `client.server_capabilities.completionProvider.triggerCharacters` on
`LspAttach`, before you call
`vim.lsp.completion.enable(… {autotrigger=true})`. See the |lsp-attach|
example.
• Call `vim.lsp.completion.get()` from the handler described at
|compl-autocomplete|.
*vim.lsp.completion.enable()*
enable({enable}, {client_id}, {bufnr}, {opts})
Enables or disables completions from the given language client in the
given buffer. Effects of enabling completions are:
• Calling |vim.lsp.completion.get()| uses the enabled clients to retrieve
completion candidates
• Accepting a completion candidate using `<c-y>` applies side effects like
expanding snippets, text edits (e.g. insert import statements) and
executing associated commands. This works for completions triggered via
autotrigger, omnifunc or completion.get()
Example: |lsp-attach| |lsp-completion|
Note: the behavior of `autotrigger=true` is controlled by the LSP
`triggerCharacters` field. You can override it on LspAttach, see
|lsp-autocompletion|.
Parameters: ~
• {enable} (`boolean`) True to enable, false to disable
• {client_id} (`integer`) Client ID
• {bufnr} (`integer`) Buffer handle, or 0 for the current buffer
• {opts} (`table?`) A table with the following fields:
• {autotrigger}? (`boolean`) (default: false) When true,
completion triggers automatically based on the server's
`triggerCharacters`.
• {convert}? (`fun(item: lsp.CompletionItem): table`)
Transforms an LSP CompletionItem to |complete-items|.
get({opts}) *vim.lsp.completion.get()*
Triggers LSP completion once in the current buffer, if LSP completion is
enabled (see |lsp-attach| |lsp-completion|).
Used by the default LSP |omnicompletion| provider |vim.lsp.omnifunc()|,
thus |i_CTRL-X_CTRL-O| invokes this in LSP-enabled buffers. Use CTRL-Y to
select an item from the completion menu. |complete_CTRL-Y|
To invoke manually with CTRL-space, use this mapping: >lua
-- Use CTRL-space to trigger LSP completion.
-- Use CTRL-Y to select an item. |complete_CTRL-Y|
vim.keymap.set('i', '<c-space>', function()
vim.lsp.completion.get()
end)
<
Parameters: ~
• {opts} (`table?`) A table with the following fields:
• {ctx}? (`lsp.CompletionContext`) Completion context.
Defaults to a trigger kind of `invoked`.

disengage the semantic token engine without fully detaching the LSP client
from the buffer.
Parameters: ~
• {bufnr} (`integer`) Buffer number, or `0` for current buffer
• {client_id} (`integer`) The ID of the |vim.lsp.Client|

Lua module: vim.lsp.log *lsp-log*
The `vim.lsp.log` module provides logging for the Nvim LSP client.
When debugging language servers, it is helpful to enable extra-verbose logging
of the LSP client RPC events. Example: >lua
vim.lsp.set_log_level 'trace'
require('vim.lsp.log').set_format_func(vim.inspect)
<
Then try to run the language server, and open the log with: >vim
:lua vim.cmd('tabnew ' .. vim.lsp.get_log_path())
<
(Or use `:LspLog` if you have nvim-lspconfig installed.)
Note:
• Remember to DISABLE verbose logging ("debug" or "trace" level), else you may
encounter performance issues.
• "ERROR" messages containing "stderr" only indicate that the log was sent to
stderr. Many servers send harmless messages via stderr.
get_filename() *vim.lsp.log.get_filename()*
Returns the log filename.
Return: ~
(`string`) log filename
get_level() *vim.lsp.log.get_level()*
Gets the current log level.
Return: ~
(`integer`) current log level
set_format_func({handle}) *vim.lsp.log.set_format_func()*
Sets formatting function used to format logs
Parameters: ~
• {handle} (`function`) function to apply to logging arguments, pass
vim.inspect for multi-line formatting
set_level({level}) *vim.lsp.log.set_level()*
Sets the current log level.
Parameters: ~
• {level} (`string|integer`) One of |vim.log.levels|
should_log({level}) *vim.lsp.log.should_log()*
Checks whether the level is sufficient for logging.
Parameters: ~
• {level} (`integer`) log level
Return: ~
(`boolean`) true if would log, false if not
