I'm developing new completion plugin to solve some of the design mistakes (the mistakes was described in here.
Currently, the new plugin can use as testing. (But I will apply breaking change without any announcement).
If someone interest it, please feel free to use it and report the issue to the new repo.
I think this issue should be pinned.
Thank you! I did it.
As someone who uses this plugin myself and recommends it to others, I've always found it to be highly dependable. I'm not necessarily big on the idea of deprecating the entire plugin if instead certain features could be deprecated instead (like, for example, the VimL configuration which you mentioned).
If that's not possible, what I have noticed about cmp was that I think setting Neovim options through a plugin's setup function seems unnecessary. It could just be vim.opt.completeopt = {'menu', 'menuone', 'noselect'} on the line above cmp.setup {} in the README.
No. The completeopt option is controlled by nvim-cmp. So it should be configuration option, I think.
The option is overwrote and restore by nvim-cmp itself. https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-cmp/blob/main/lua/cmp/menu.lua#L166
That's what I mean, I should have been more specific. I'm not sure cmp should automatically overwrite settings— in the past plugins have done that to my settings and it can be a little dubious finding out which is the culprit 😅
Perhaps an error would be good, if the settings aren't at least what cmp expects? That way users know and make the change themselves.
In general, completion plugin manages completeopt setting... So I think it is not a strange way.
completion-nvim doesn't, compe issues a warning rather than overriding, and coc.nvim doesn't either.
All the "major" completion plugins don't touch user settings and either issue warning or simply have a note in the README.
I defer to you on these matters though, you have more experience writing these plugins
Hm. completion-nvim does not change completeopt.
But it is not the perfect solution. Please read the issue.
The auto completion breaks longest behavior.
