Language Servers may signal that they do not support a method in
the initialization result (server capabilities). We can check these
when making LSP requests and hint in the status line when a method
is not supported by the server. This can also prevent crashes in
servers which assume that clients do not send requests for methods
which are disabled in the server capabilities.
There is an existing pattern the LSP client module where a method
returns `Option<impl Future<Output = Result<_>>>` with `None` signaling
no support in the server. This change extends this pattern to the rest
of the client functions. And we log an error to the statusline for
manually triggered LSP calls which return `None`.
Previously, jumplists could grow unchecked. Every transaction is
applied to jumplist selections to ensure that they are up to date
and within document bounds, so this would cause every edit to become
more expensive as jumplist lengths increased throughout a session.
Setting a maximum number of entries limits the cost.
Vim and Neovim limit their jumplists:
* b298fe6cba/src/structs.h (L141)
* e8cc489acc/src/nvim/mark_defs.h (L57)
Notably, Kakoune does not. In Kakoune, changes are applied to jumplist
entries lazily as you hit `<C-o>`/`<C-i>` though, so Kakoune doesn't
have the same growing cost concerns. Kakoune also does not have a
concept of a View which limits the cost further.
Vim and Neovim limit to 100. This seems unreasonably high to me so I've
set this to 30 to start. We can increase if this is problematically
low.
d6323b7cbc changed the behavior of paste
to select the newly inserted text. This is preferrable in normal mode
because it's useful to be able to act on the new text. This behavior
is worse for insert or select mode though:
* In insert mode, the cursor ends up on the last character of the newly
selected text, so further typing inserts text before the last
character.
* In select mode, the current selection is replaced with the new text
selection which doesn't extend the current selection. With this
change, the selection is extended to include the new text.
This aligns the behavior more closely with Kakoune, but it's
coincidental instead of intentional: Kakoune doesn't implement
bracketed paste (AFAIK) which causes this behavior in insert mode,
and Kakoune doesn't have a select mode.
Previously, commands such as `r<tab>` (replace with tab) or `t<tab>`
(select till tab) had no effect. This is because `KeyCode::Tab` needs
special treatment (like `KeyCode::Enter`).
This change handles a language server exiting. This was a UX sore-spot:
if a language server crashed, Helix did not recognize the exit and
continued to send requests to it. All requests would timeout since they
would not receive responses. This would also hold-up Helix closing
itself down since it would try to gracefully shutdown the server which
is implemented in the LSP spec as a request.
We could attempt to automatically restart the language server on crash.
I left this for future work since that change will need to be slightly
complicated: it will need to cover the case of a language server
repeatedly crashing.
d7d0d5ffb7 resolves completion items on
the idle-timeout event. The `Completion::resolve_completion_item`
function blocks on the LSP request though, which blocks the compositor
and in turn blocks the event loop. So until the language server returns
the resolved completion item, Helix is unable to respond to keypresses
or other LSP messages.
This is typically ok since the resolution request is fast but for some
language servers this can be problematic, and ideally we shouldn't be
blocking like this anyways.
When receiving a `completionItem/resolve` request, the Volar server
sends a `workspace/configuration` request to Helix and blocks itself
on the response, leading to a deadlock. Eventually the resolve request
times out within Helix but Helix is locked up and unresponsive in that
window.
This change resolves the completion item without blocking the
compositor.

This fixes an edge case for completing shellwords. With a file
"a b.txt" in the current directory, the sequence `:open a\<tab>`
will result in the prompt containing `:open aa\ b.txt`. This is
because the length of the input which is trimmed when replacing with
completion is calculated on the part of the input which is parsed by
shellwords and then escaped (in a separate operation), which is lossy.
In this case it loses the trailing backslash.
The fix provided here refactors shellwords to track both the _words_
(shellwords with quotes and escapes resolved) and the _parts_ (chunks
of the input which turned into each word, with separating whitespace
removed). When calculating how much of the input to delete when
replacing with the completion item, we now use the length of the last
part.
This also allows us to eliminate the duplicate work done in the
`ends_with_whitespace` check.
The text within the command palette used a custom format to display
the keybinding for a command. This change switches to the key sequence
format that we use for pending keys and macros.

d6323b7cbc introduced a regression for
shell commands like `|`, `!`, and `<A-!>` which caused the new
selections to be incorrect. This caused a panic when piping (`|`)
would cause the new range to extend past the document end.
The paste version of this bug was fixed in
48a3965ab4.
This change also inherits the direction of the new range from the old
range and adds integration tests to ensure that the behavior isn't
broken in the future.
* dynamically resize line number gutter width
* removing digits lower-bound, permitting spacer
* removing max line num char limit; adding notes; qualified successors; notes

If `a\ b.txt` were a local file, `:o a\ <tab>` would fill the prompt
with `:o aa\ b.txt` because the replacement range was calculated using
the shellwords-parsed part. Escaping the part before calculating its
length fixes this edge-case.
This changes the completion items to be rendered with shellword
escaping, so a file `a b.txt` is rendered as `a\ b.txt` which matches
how it should be inputted.
8584b38cfb switched to shellwords for
completion in command-mode. This changes the conditions for choosing
whether to complete the command or use the command's completer.
This change processes the input as shellwords up-front and uses
shellword logic about whitespace to determine whether the command
or argument should be completed.
* Fix range offsets in multi-selection paste
d6323b7cbc introduced a regression with
multi-selection paste where pasting would not adjust the ranges
correctly. To fix it, we need to track the total number of characters
inserted in each changed selection and use that offset to slide each
new range forwards.
* Inherit selection directions on paste
* Add an integration-test for multi-selection pasting
The sequence "_y"_p panics because the blackhole register contains an
empty values vec. This causes a panic when pasting since it unwraps
a `slice::last`.
This follows changes in Kakoune to the same effects:
* p/<space>p: 266d1c37d0
* !/<A-!>: 85b78dda2e
Selecting the new data inserted by shell or pasting is often more
useful than retaining a selection of the pre-paste/insert content.
* Clamp highlighting range to be within document
This fixes a panic possible when two vsplits of the same document
exist and enough lines are deleted from the document so that one of
the windows focuses past the end of the document.
* Ensure cursor is in view on window change
If two windows are editing the same document, one may delete enough of
the document so that the other window is pointing at a blank page (past
the document end). In this change we ensure that the cursor is within
view whenever we switch to a new window (for example with `<C-w>w`).

When backward-deleting a character, if this character and the following
character form a Pair, we want to delete both. However, there is a bug
that deletes both characters also if both characters are closers of some
Pair.
This commit fixes that by adding an additional check that the deleted
character should be an opener in a Pair.

This bug occurs on `shell_insert_output` and `shell_append_output`
commands.
The previous implementation would create a child process using the Rust
stdlib's `Command` builder. However, when nothing should be piped in
from the editor, the default value for `stdin` would be used. According
to the Rust stdlib documentation that is `Stdio::inherit` which will
make the child process inherit the parent process' stdin. This would
cause the terminal to freeze.
This change will set the child process' stdin to `Stdio::null` whenever
it doesn't pipe it. In the `if` statement where this change was made
there was an extra condition for windows that I am not sure if would
require some special treatment.
This is mostly for the sake of the diagnostics pickers: without
rendering the diagnostic styles, it's hard to tell where the entries
in the picker are pointing to.
Some language servers may not send the `documentation` field if it
is expensive to compute. Clients can request the missing field with
a completionItem/resolve request.
In this change we use the idle-timeout event to ensure that the current
completion item is resolved.
This complicates the code a little but it often divides by two the number of allocations done by
the functions. LSP labels especially can easily be called dozens of time in a single menu popup,
when listing references for example.
When we do auto formatting, the code that takes the LSP's response and applies
the changes to the document are just getting the currently focused view and
giving that to the function, basically always assuming that the document that
we're applying the change to is in focus, and not in a background view.
This is usually fine for a single view, even if it's a buffer in the
background, because it's still the same view and the selection will get updated
accordingly for when you switch back to it. But it's obviously a problem for
when there are multiple views, because if you don't have the target document in
focus, it will ask the document to update the wrong view, hence the crash.
The problem with this is picking which view to apply any selection change to.
In the absence of any more data points on the views themselves, we simply pick
the first view associated with the document we are saving.
When force quitting, we need to block on the pending writes to ensure
that write commands succeed before exiting, and also to avoid a crash
when all the views are gone before the auto format call returns from
the LS.

* Fix test::print for Unicode
The print function was not generating correct translations when
the input has Unicode (non-ASCII) in it. This is due to its use of
String::len, which gives the length in bytes, not chars.
* Fix multi-code point auto pairs
The current code for auto pairs is counting offsets by summing the
length of the open and closing chars with char::len_utf8. Unfortunately,
this gives back bytes, and the offset needs to be in chars.
Additionally, it was discovered that there was a preexisting bug where
the selection was not computed correctly in the case that the cursor
was:
1. a single grapheme in width
2. this grapheme was more than one char
3. the direction of the cursor is backwards
4. a secondary range
In this case, the offset was not being added into the anchor. This was
fixed.

This change removes language server configuration from the default
languages.toml config for integration tests. No integration-tests
currently depend on the availability of a language server but if any
future test needs to, it may provide a language server configuration
by passing an override into the `test_syntax_conf` helper.
Language-servers in integration tests cause false-positive failures
when running integration tests in GitHub Actions CI. The Windows
runner appears to have `clangd` installed and all OS runners have
the `R` binary installed but not the `R` language server package.
If a test file created by `tempfile::NamedTempFile` happens to have a
file extension of `r`, the test will most likely fail because the
R language server will fail to start and will become a broken pipe,
meaning that it will fail to shutdown within the timeout, causing a
false-positive failure. This happens surprisingly often in practice.
Language servers (especially rust-analyzer) also emit unnecessary
log output when initializing, which this change silences.
`helix_view::apply_transaction` closes over `Document::apply` and
`View::apply` to ensure that jumplist entries are updated when a
document changes from a transaction. `Document::apply` shouldn't
be called directly - this helper function should be used instead.
If a document is written with a new path, currently, in the event that
the write fails, the document still gets its path changed. This fixes
it so that the path is not updated unless the write succeeds.
The way that document writes are handled are by submitting them to the
async job pool, which are all executed opportunistically out of order. It
was discovered that this can lead to write inconsistencies when there
are multiple writes to the same file in quick succession.
This seeks to fix this problem by removing document writes from the
general pool of jobs and into its own specialized event. Now when a
user submits a write with one of the write commands, a request is simply
queued up in a new mpsc channel that each Document makes to handle its own
writes. This way, if multiple writes are submitted on the same document,
they are executed in order, while still allowing concurrent writes for
different documents.
Instead of repeatedly checking if it is in_bounds, calculate the
max_indent beforehand and just loop. I added a debug_assert to "prove"
that it never tries drawing out of bounds.
Better performance, and otherwise very long lines with lots of tabs
will wrap around the u16 and come back on the other side, messing up
the beginning skip_levels.
Also changes workspace diagnostic picker bindings to <space>D and
changes the debug menu keybind to <space>g, the previous diagnostic
picker keybind. This brings the diagnostic picker bindings more in
line with the jump to next/previous diagnostic bindings which are
currently on ]d and [d.
The debug assertion that document diagnostics are sorted incorrectly
panics for cases like `[161..164, 162..162]`. The merging behavior
in the following lines that relies on the assertion only needs the
input ranges to be sorted by `range.start`, so this change simplifies
the assertion to only catch violations of that assumption.
Undo/redo/earlier/later call `Document::apply_impl` which applies
transactions to the document. These transactions also need to be
applied to the view as in 0aedef0.
Here we separate the diagnostics by severity and then overlay the Vec
of spans for each severity on top of the highlights. The error
diagnostics end up overlaid on the warning diagnostics, which are
overlaid on the hints, overlaid on info, overlaid on any other severity
(default), then overlaid on the syntax highlights.
This fixes two things:
* Error diagnostics are now always visible when overlapped with other
diagnostics.
* Ghost text is eliminated.
* Ghost text was caused by duplicate diagnostics at the EOF:
overlaps within the merged `Vec<(usize, Range<usize>)>` violate
assumptions in `helix_core::syntax::Merge`.
* When we push a new range, we check it against the last range and
merge the two if they overlap. This is safe because they both
have the same severity and therefore highlight.
The actual merge is skipped for any of these when they are empty, so
this is very fast in practice. For some data, I threw together an FPS
counter which renders as fast as possible and logs the renders per
second.
With no diagnostics, I see an FPS gain from this change from 868 FPS
to 878 (+1.1%) on a release build on a Rust file. On an Erlang file
with 12 error diagnostics and 6 warnings in view (233 errors and 66
warnings total), I see a decrease in average FPS from 795 to 790
(-0.6%) on a release build.
It is easy to forget to call `Document::apply` and/or `View::apply` in
the correct order. This commit introduces a helper function which
closes over both calls.
This change adds View::apply calls for all Document::apply call-sites,
ensuring that changes to a document do not leave invalid entries in
the View's jumplist.

If the close method fails, the editor will quit before restoring the
terminal. This causes the shell to break if, e.g. the LS times out
shutting down.
This fixes this by always restoring the terminal after closing, and
printing out a message to stderr if there is an error.
This change automatically tracks pending text for for commands which use
on-next-key callbacks. For example, `t` will await the next key event
and "t" will be shown in the bottom right-hand corner to show that we're
in a pending state.
Previously, the text for these on-next-key commands needed to be
hard-coded into the command definition which had some drawbacks:
* It was easy to forget to write and clear the pending text.
* If a command was remapped in a custom config, the pending text would
still show the old key.
With this change, pending text is automatically tracked based on the
key events that lead to the command being executed. This works even
when the command is remapped in config and when the on-next-key
callback is nested under some key sequence (for example `mi`).

This changes the behavior of operations like `]f`/`[f` to set the
direction of the new range to the direction of the action.
The original behavior was to always use the head of the next function.
This is inconsistent with the behavior of goto_next_paragraph and makes
it impossible to create extend variants of the textobject motions.
This causes a behavior change when there are nested functions. The
behavior in the parent commit is that repeated uses of `]f` will
select every function in the file even if nested. With this commit,
functions are skipped.
It's notable that it's possible to emulate the original behavior by
using the `ensure_selections_forward` (A-:) command between invocations
of `]f`.

* Split helix_core::find_root and helix_loader::find_local_config_dirs
The documentation of find_root described the following priority for
detecting a project root:
- Top-most folder containing a root marker in current git repository
- Git repository root if no marker detected
- Top-most folder containing a root marker if not git repository detected
- Current working directory as fallback
The commit contained in https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/pull/1249
extracted and changed the implementation of find_root in find_root_impl,
actually reversing its result order (since that is the order that made
sense for the local configuration merge, from innermost to outermost
ancestors).
Since the two uses of find_root_impl have different requirements (and
it's not a matter of reversing the order of results since, e.g., the top
repository dir should be used by find_root only if there's not marker in
other dirs), this PR splits the two implementations in two different
specialized functions.
In doing so, find_root_impl is removed and the implementation is moved
back in find_root, moving it closer to the documented behaviour thus
making it easier to verify it's actually correct

Currently, opening helix with a config containing a bad command mapping
fails with a cryptic error. For example, say we have a config (bad.toml)
with a command name that doesn't exist:
[keys.normal]
b = "buffer_close" # should be ":buffer-close"
When we `hx -c bad.toml`, we get...
> Bad config: data did not match any variant of untagged enum KeyTrie for key `keys.normal` at line 1 column 1
> Press <ENTER> to continue with default config
This is because of the way that Serde tries to deserialize untagged
enums such as `helix_term::keymap::KeyTrie`. From the Serde docs[^1]:
> Serde will try to match the data against each variant in order and the
> first one that deserializes successfully is the one returned.
`MappableCommand::deserialize` fails (returns an Err variant) when a
command does not exist. Serde interprets this as the `KeyTrie::Leaf`
variant failing to match and declares that the input data doesn't
"match any variant of untagged enum KeyTrie."
Luckily the variants of KeyTrie are orthogonal in structure: we can tell
them apart by the type hints from a `serde:🇩🇪:Visitor`. This change
uses a custom Deserialize implementation along with a Visitor that
discerns which variant of the KeyTrie applies. With this change, the
above failure becomes:
> Bad config: No command named 'buffer_close' for key `keys.normal.b` at line 2 column 5
> Press <ENTER> to continue with default config
We also provide more explicit information about the expectations on
the field. A config with an unexpected type produces a message with
that information and the expectation:
[keys.normal]
b = 1
> Bad config: invalid type: integer `1`, expected a command, list of commands, or sub-keymap for key `keys.normal.b` at line 2 column 5
> Press <ENTER> to continue with default config

Helix is first and foremost a modal editor. Willingness to support non-modal
editing is there, but it is not one that should be encouraged with the default
settings. There are an increasing number of users who are stumbling because
they are trying to use Helix as a non-modal editor, so this is an effort to
encourage new users to stop and take notice that Helix has a different paradigm
than VSCode, Sublime, etc. Users can still add these bindings back to their own
configs if they wish.
`extend_line_above` (and `extend_line` when facing backwards) skip

Before this change:

#[|foo
bar]#
baz
Which is inconsistent with `extend_line_below`. This commit changes
the behavior to select the current line when it is not already
selected.
foo
#[|bar]#
baz
Then further calls of `extend_line_above` extend the selection up
line-wise.

It was starting to diverge as the normal exit code was restoring the prompt but the panic code
wasn't, and the panic code was disabling bracketed paste but the normal code wasn't.
This changes the panic path slightly in that we won't disable raw mode if exiting alternate screen
and disabling bracketed paste fails. If that happens, things are so busted I don't think it matters
anyway.
Fixes a panic with a config like:
[keys.normal.space]
x = [":buffer-close"]
by bailing out of the command-execution handling if the document
doesn't exist after handling a command.
This refactor changes the overall structure of the goto_ts_object_impl
command without removing any functionality from its behavior. The
refactored motion:
* acts on all selections instead of reducing to one selection
* may be repeated with the `repeat_last_motion` (A-.) command
* informs the user when the syntax-tree is not accessible in the current buffer
This is invalid according to the [LSP spec]:

> or notifications to the client until it has responded with an

So we should discard the message when the language server is not
yet initialized. This can happen if the server sends
textDocument/publishDiagnostics before responding to the initialize
request. clojure-lsp appears to exhibit this behavior in the wild.
[LSP Spec]: https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/lsp/3.17/specification/#initialize
This change adds documents to the view's document history Vec.
(This is used by `ga` for example to access the last buffer.)
Previously, a sequence like so would have confusing behavior:
1. Open file A: any document with an active language server
2. Find some definition that lives in another file - file B - with `gd`
3. Jump back in the jumplist with `C-o` to file A
4. Use `ga` intending to switch back to file B
The behavior prior to this change was that `ga` would switch to file
A: you could not use `ga` to switch to file B.
When changing focus, the lookup with `current!` may change the
view and end up executing mode transition hooks on the newly
focused view. We should use the same view and document to execute
mode transition hooks so that switching away from a view triggers
history save points.
* Derive Document language name from `languages.toml` `name` key
This changes switches from deriving the language name from the
`languages.toml` `scope` key to `name` (`language_id` in the
`LanguageConfiguration` type). For the most part it works to derive the
language name from scope by chopping off `source.` or `rsplit_once` on
`.` but for some languages we have now like html (`text.html.basic`),
it doesn't. This also should be a more accurate fallback for the
`language_id` method which is used in LSP and currently uses the
`rsplit_once` strategy.
Here we expose the language's name as `language_name` on `Document` and
replace ad-hoc calculations of the language name with the new method.
This is most impactful for the `file-type` statusline element which is
using `language_id`.
* Use `Document::language_name` for the `file-type` statusline element
The `file-type` indicator element in the statusline was using
`Document::language_id` which is meant to be used to for telling
Language Servers what language we're using. That works for languages
with `language-server` configurations in `languages.toml` but shows
text otherwise. The new `Document::language_name` method from the
parent commit is a more accurate way to determine the language.

* Update description of `m` textobject to its actual functionality
Sometime recently the functionality of `m` was changed to match the
nearest pair to the cursor, rather than the former functionality of
matching the pair only if the cursor was on one of the brace characters
directly.
* Rename surround methods to reflect that they work on pairs
The current naming suggests that they may work generally on any
textobject, whereas their implementation really focuses on pairs.
* Change description of m textobject to match actual functionality
The current implementation of `m` no longer merely looks at the pair
character the cursor is on, but actually will search for the pair
(defined in helix-core/src/surround.rs) that encloses the cursor, and
not the entire selection.
* Accept suggested wording change

Ported over from 61365dfbf3 in the `gui` branch. This will allow
adding our own events, most notably an idle timer event (useful
for adding debounced input in [dynamic pickers][1] used by interactive
global search and workspace symbols).

These are read-line-like bindings which we'd like to minimize in
insert mode in general.
In particular these two are troublesome if you have a low
`editor.idle-timeout` config and are using LSP completions: the
behavior of C-n/C-p switches from moving down/up lines to moving
down/up the completion menu, so if you hit C-n too quickly
expecting to be in the completion menu, you'll end up moving down
a line instead. Using C-p moves you back up the line but doesn't
re-trigger the completion menu. This kind of timing related change
to behavior isn't realistically that big of a deal but it can be
annoying.
* Fix tab highlight when tab is partially visible
* Make it style based, and not truncation based
Dealing with truncating is a mess, especially when it comes to wide
unicode graphemes. This way it should work no matter what.
* Inline style calculation into branches
* Fix incorrect indent guide styling
Before the indent guides on top of whitespace inherited the theme
from them. Now they do not.
* Fix dark_plus theme indent_guides
* Use whitespace style as fallback for indent-guide
* Fix dark_plus theme indent_guides
* Move indent_guide style patching out of loop
* Avoid setting stdin handle when not necessary
Avoid setting the stdin handle in `shell_impl` when the input argument
is None.
This permits to run commands with no stdin with :sh
* refactoring to avoid code duplication
* making clippy happy
* Process variable name fix
Indent style may change when choosing a language with `:set-language`.
Line-endings most likely will not change, but `:set-language` should
have a similar effect as reloading a file (`:reload`), plus the two
are currently grouped in the implementation and line-ending detection
is not particularly expensive.
* Change default formatter for any language
* Fix clippy error
* Close stdin for Stdio formatters
* Better indentation and pattern matching
* Return Result<Option<...>> for fn format instead of Option
* Remove unwrap for stdin
* Handle FormatterErrors instead of Result<Option<...>>
* Use Transaction instead of LspFormatting
* Use Transaction directly in Document::format
* Perform stdin type formatting asynchronously
* Rename formatter.type values to kebab-case
* Debug format for displaying io::ErrorKind (msrv fix)
* Solve conflict?
* Use only stdio type formatters
* Remove FormatterType enum
* Remove old comment
* Check if the formatter exited correctly
* Add formatter configuration to the book
* Avoid allocations when writing to stdin and formatting errors
* Remove unused import

The language server sends a char offset range within the
signature help label text to highlight as the current parameter,
but helix uses byte offset ranges for rendering highlights. This
was brought up in the [review of the original signature help PR][1],
but the ranges were being highlighted correctly, and there were no
out of bound or indexing panics. Turns out rust-analyzer was
[incorrectly sending byte offsets] instead of char offsets and this
made it seem like all was well and good with offsets in helix during
initial testing.
