Problem:
- Not obvious which _meta/ are generated and which should be edited
manually.
- The require guard (`error('Cannot require a meta file')`) is not
consistently present in all meta files.
Solution:
- Update headers.
- Add require() guard to all meta files.
- Rename generated meta files with `.gen.lua`.

Problem: Cannot set highlight group fonts via API, only via :highlight
command.
Solution: Add font parameter in nvim_set_hl().
|
|
Problem: hlgroup2dict passes &ns_id to ns_get_hl twice. The first call
(link=true) sets *ns_hl = 0 when link_global is set, so the second call
and the sg_cleared guard both see ns_id == 0 and bail out. The group is
silently dropped from the result.
Solution: use a temporary copy of ns_id for each ns_get_hl call so the
original value is preserved.
|
|
For now, add a private "_truncate" flag to nvim_echo, using a truncation
method similar to showmode().
|
|
Problem:
`:help dev-name-common` states that "buf" should be used instead of
"buffer" but there are cases where buffer is mentioned in the lua API.
Solution:
- Rename occurrences of "buffer" to "buf" for consistency with the
documentation.
- Support (but deprecate) "buffer" for backwards compatibility.

Problem:
Currently, there's no way to distinguish progress messages coming from
different sources. Nor can Progress event be easily filtered based on
source.
Solution:
- Add "source" field to nvim_echo-opts.
- The Progress event pattern is now defined by the "source" field.
- Include the "title" as ev.data.
- Unrelated change: set force=false to disable nesting.

Problem: nvim_set_hl always replaces all attributes.
Solution: Add update field. When true, merge with existing
attributes instead of replacing. Unspecified attributes are preserved.
If highlight group doesn't exist, falls back to reset mode.
|
|
Problem: nvim_open_tabpage's "enter" argument is optional, which is inconsistent
with nvim_open_win.
Solution: make it a (non-optional) positional argument, like nvim_open_win.
Also change "enter"'s description to be more like nvim_open_win's doc.
|
|
Problem: no API function for opening a new tab page and returning its handle, or
to open without entering.
Solution: add nvim_open_tabpage.
|
|
Problem: nvim_win_get_config() does not return a window's "style".
Solution: always include it, and document `style=""`.
Always included so it can be used reciprocally with nvim_open_win() or
nvim_win_set_config(). (otherwise the config of a window with kWinStyleUnused
will not unset the kWinStyleMinimal style of another window if passed to
nvim_win_set_config, for example)

Problem: ArrayOf(String) doesn't cover mixed string/array border chars.
Solution: use Union(Array, Enum(...)) to match parse_border_style behavior.

Problem:
TUI does not support several standard SGR text attributes:
- dim/faint (SGR 2)
- blink (SGR 5)
- conceal (SGR 8)
- overline (SGR 53)
This means that when a program running in the embedded terminal emits
one of these escape codes, we drop it and don't surface it to the
outer terminal.
Solution:
- Add support for those attributes.
- Also add corresponding flags to `nvim_set_hl` opts, so users can set
these attributes in highlight groups.
- refactor(highlight): widen `HlAttrFlags` from `int16_t` to `int32_t`
Widen the `rgb_ae_attr` and `cterm_ae_attr` fields in HlAttrs from
int16_t to int32_t to make room for new highlight attribute flags,
since there was only one spare bit left.
- The C flag is named HL_CONCEALED to avoid colliding with the
existing HL_CONCEAL in syntax.h (which is a syntax group flag, not
an SGR attribute).
- Also note that libvterm doesn't currently support the dim and overline
attributes, so e.g. `printf '\e[2mThis should be dim\n'` and `printf
'\e[53mThis should have an overline\n'` are still not rendered
correctly when run from the embedded terminal.

Problem: cterm field in Dict(highlight) is declared as Union(Integer, String)
but it actually expects a Dict(highlight_cterm).
Solution: change cterm type to DictAs(highlight__cterm) and simplify the
handling in dict2hlattrs since type validation and empty array compat are
already handled by api_dict_to_keydict.

Problem: No event is triggered before creating a window.
(Sergey Vlasov)
Solution: Add the WinNewPre event (Sergey Vlasov)

closes: vim/vim#12761
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/1f47db75fdc8c53c5c778b26ecfa0942ac801f22
Not sure if this should be triggered before creating a floating window,
as its use case is related to window layout.

Problem:
- Can't subscribe to "mark" events.
- Executing events is risky because they can't be deferred.
Solution:
- Introduce `MarkSet` event.
- Introduce `aucmd_defer()`.

This partially reverts 0b8a72b73934d33a05e20c255298e88cd921df32,
that is unreverts 15e77a56b711102fdc123e15b3f37d49bc0b1df1
"priority" is an internal neovim concept which does not occur in shared
queries. Ideally a single priority space should eventually be enough
for our needs. But as we don't want to poke at the usages of
priorities right now in the wider ecosystem,
introduce the "subpriorities" so that treesitter code can distinguish
highlights of the same priorities with different tree nesting depth.
This mainly affects `injection.combined` as parent-tree nodes might appear
in the middle of child-tree nodes which otherwise is not possible.

Problem:
Nvim does not have a core concept for indicating "progress" of
long-running tasks. The LspProgress event is specific to LSP.
Solution:
- `nvim_echo` can emit `kind="progress"` messages.
- Emits a `Progress` event.
- Includes new fields (id, status, percent) in the `msg_show` ui-event.
- The UI is expected to overwrite any message having the same id.
- Messages have a globally unique ID.
- `nvim_echo` returns the message ID.
- `nvim_echo(… {id=…})` updates existing messages.
Example:
local grp = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup("Msg", {clear = true})
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('Progress', {
pattern={"term"},
group = grp,
callback = function(ev)
print(string.format('event fired: %s', vim.inspect(ev))..'\n')
end
})
-- require('vim._extui').enable({enable=true, msg={target='msg', timeout=1000}})
vim.api.nvim_echo({{'searching'}}, true, {kind='progress', percent=80, status='running', title="terminal(ripgrep)"})
local id = vim.api.nvim_echo({{'searching'}}, true, {kind='progress', status='running', percent=10, title="terminal(ripgrep)"})
vim.api.nvim_echo({}, true, {id = id, kind='progress', percent=20, status = 'running', title='find tests'})
vim.api.nvim_echo({}, true, {id = id, kind='progress', status='running', percent=70})
vim.api.nvim_echo({{'complete'}}, true, {id = id, kind='progress', status='success', percent=100, title="find tests"})
Followups:
- Integrate with 'statusline' by listening to the Progress autocmd event.
- Integrate progress ui-event with `vim._extui`.

- Render Lua types in api.txt.
- Added `DictAs(name)` API type which acts the same as `Dict` (no parens)
when generating the dispatchers, but acts the same as `Dict(name)`
when generating docs.
- Added `Tuple(...)` API type which is the treated the as `Array` for
generating the dispatchers, but is used to document richer types.
- Added `Enum(...)` API type to better document enums
- Improve typing of some API functions.
- Improve c_grammar to properly parse API types and replace string pattern
logic in the parsers.
- Removed all the hardcoded type overrides in gen_eval_files.lua

Problem: Unable to emit a message with arbitrary kind.
Solution: Add a "kind" opts field to nvim_echo().
Use it to set the "list_cmd" kind for vim.show_pos().
|
|
Problem: UIs implementing ext_cmdline/message must also implement
ext_popupmenu in order to get cmdline completion with
wildoptions+=pum.
Solution: Allow marking a window as the ext_cmdline window through
nvim_open_win(), including prompt offset. Anchor the cmdline-
completion popupmenu to this window.
|

Useful to e.g. limit the height to the window height, avoiding unnecessary
work. Or to find out how many buffer lines beyond "start_row" take up a
certain number of logical lines (returned in "end_row" and "end_vcol").

|
TSHighlighter now places marks for conceal_lines metadata. A new
internal decor provider callback _on_conceal_line was added that
instructs the highlighter to place conceal_lines marks whenever the
editor needs to know whether a line is concealed. The bundled markdown
queries use conceal_lines metadata to conceal code block fence lines.
|
|
Implement an extmark property that conceals lines vertically.
|
|
Add a new field `virt_lines_overflow` that enables horizontal scrolling
for virtual lines when set to "scroll".
|
|
Problem:
nvim_get_autocmds cannot filter by id.
Solution:
Support it.
|
|
This has been possible in the "backend" for a while but
API was missing.
Followup: we will need a `details2=true` mode for `nvim_get_hl_id_by_name`
to return information in a way forward compatible with even further
enhancements.
|
|
|
|
Problem: We want to deprecate `nvim_err_write(ln)()` but there is no
obvious replacement (from Lua). Meanwhile we already have
`nvim_echo()` with an `opts` argument.
Solution: Add `err` argument to `nvim_echo()` that directly maps to
`:echoerr`.

Problem: incorrect return type doc causes luals `Annotations specify that at most 0 return value(s) are required, found 1 returned here instead.` diagnosis
Solution: correct return type doc

Experimental and subject to future changes.
Add a way to redraw certain elements that are not redrawn while Nvim is waiting
for input, or currently have no API to do so. This API covers all that can be
done with the :redraw* commands, in addition to the following new features:
- Immediately move the cursor to a (non-current) window.
- Target a specific window or buffer to mark for redraw.
- Mark a buffer range for redraw (replaces nvim__buf_redraw_range()).
- Redraw the 'statuscolumn'.

(#27131)" (#28585)
This reverts commit 15e77a56b711102fdc123e15b3f37d49bc0b1df1.
Subpriorities were added in https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/27131
as a mechanism for enforcing query order when using iter_matches in the
Tree-sitter highlighter. However, iter_matches proved to have too many
complications to use in the highlighter so we eventually reverted back
to using iter_captures (https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/27901).
Thus, subpriorities are no longer needed and can be removed.

`FloatConfig` is no longer used only for floats, so the name is counterintuitive.
Followup to #25550
|
|
Adds support to `nvim_open_win` and `nvim_win_set_config` for creating
and manipulating split (non-floating) windows.

The "priority" field of extmarks can be used to set priorities of
extmarks which dictates which highlight group a range will actually have
when there are multiple extmarks applied. However, when multiple
extmarks have the same priority, the only way to enforce an actual
priority is through the order in which the extmarks are set.
It is not always possible or desirable to set extmarks in a specific
order, however, so we add a new "subpriority" field that explicitly
enforces the ordering of extmarks that have the same priority.
For now this will be used only to enforce priority of treesitter
highlights. A single node in a treesitter tree may match multiple
captures, in which case that node will have multiple extmarks set. The
order in which captures are returned from the treesitter API is not
_necessarily_ in the same order they are defined in a query file, so we
use the new subpriority field to force that ordering.
For now subpriorites are not documented and are not meant to be used by
external code, and it only applies to ephemeral extmarks. We indicate
the "private" nature of subpriorities by prefixing the field name with
an "_".

Extmarks can contain URLs which can then be drawn in any supporting UI.
In the TUI, for example, URLs are "drawn" by emitting the OSC 8 control
sequence to the TTY. On terminals which support the OSC 8 sequence this
will create clickable hyperlinks.
URLs are treated as inline highlights in the decoration subsystem, so
are included in the `DecorSignHighlight` structure. However, unlike
other inline highlights they use allocated memory which must be freed,
so they set the `ext` flag in `DecorInline` so that their lifetimes are
managed along with other allocated memory like virtual text.
The decoration subsystem then adds the URLs as a new highlight
attribute. The highlight subsystem maintains a set of unique URLs to
avoid duplicating allocations for the same string. To attach a URL to an
existing highlight attribute we call `hl_add_url` which finds the URL in
the set (allocating and adding it if it does not exist) and sets the
`url` highlight attribute to the index of the URL in the set (using an
index helps keep the size of the `HlAttrs` struct small).
This has the potential to lead to an increase in highlight attributes
if a URL is used over a range that contains many different highlight
attributes, because now each existing attribute must be combined with
the URL. In practice, however, URLs typically span a range containing a
single highlight (e.g. link text in Markdown), so this is likely just a
pathological edge case.
When a new highlight attribute is defined with a URL it is copied to all
attached UIs with the `hl_attr_define` UI event. The TUI manages its own
set of URLs (just like the highlight subsystem) to minimize allocations.
The TUI keeps track of which URL is "active" for the cell it is
printing. If no URL is active and a cell containing a URL is printed,
the opening OSC 8 sequence is emitted and that URL becomes the actively
tracked URL. If the cursor is moved while in the middle of a URL span,
we emit the terminating OSC sequence to prevent the hyperlink from
spanning multiple lines.
This does not support nested hyperlinks, but that is a rare (and,
frankly, bizarre) use case. If a valid use case for nested hyperlinks
ever presents itself we can address that issue then.

These can either be number or string in lua, so we can specify this
directly as "number|string".
