Neovim setup not working about contextive

[Josh-Piper]

Got it working based on the lsp.log.
Neovim did not have access to Mac's /usr/local/bin. I should have just put the binary elsewhere... (your readme states to put it in $HOME so that's my bad).

I was trying to get the intellisense working, that's what I was in insert mode. It's working now

Leaving this here since many might try using a neovim distro. For a simple LazyVim distro config all I needed was

return {
  "neovim/nvim-lspconfig",
  opts = function()
    local lspconfig = require("lspconfig")

    local lspconfig_configs = require("lspconfig.configs")

    lspconfig_configs.contextive = {
      default_config = {
        cmd = { "Contextive.LanguageServer" },
        root_dir = lspconfig.util.root_pattern(".contextive", ".git"),
      },
    }

    lspconfig.contextive.setup({})
  end,
}

Hi @Josh-Piper, thanks for your report.

The neovim documentation is a pretty recent addition to Contextive thanks to contributions from @erikjuhani - you can see a screenshot of it working in their pull request: #49 so in theory it should work for you.

Unfortunately I don't have a replication environment setup myself just yet.

One thing to check - I'm not sure the hover appears by default as you're typing - according to https://neovim.io/doc/user/lsp.html#lsp-config a number of keymaps are setup by default (unless you have overwritten them) and by default K is bound to the hover function.

Could you give that a try? I suspect you have to not be in insert mode...

If that doesn't work, I note from the screenshot above it says that the languageclient log is in .local/state/nvim/lsp.log - could you check what's in there?

If still no luck, I wonder if @erikjuhani, would be so kind as to take a look at the above and see if anything jumps out?

Thanks!
Chris

Thanks @Josh-Piper, glad you got it sorted!

In other vim world updates, @erikjuhani has prepped a contribution to nvm-lspconfig - neovim/nvim-lspconfig@master...erikjuhani:nvim-lspconfig:feat/contextive-language-server - I think he's waiting on my review before merging it, and I'm waiting until I've resolved an issue with contextive's config approach in case it affects the configuration (see #55 and possibly #54).

While the neovim config works fine with the default definitions.yml file location, it doesn't yet work if you try and leverage the contextive.path setting to change the location.

Thanks also for the LazyVim contribution - I'll update the main readme docs to include it shortly 🙂

Hey! I’m glad you got it sorted out! I’ve been working on to add the neovim configuration to nvim lsp-config like @chrissimon-au mentioned! I’ve been extremely busy with work recently so my work in this regard has slowed down to a halt. I was planning on revisiting the work this weekend.

After the changes you would not have to install the LSP manually, but use mason to provide it for you! Mason is already included with LazyVim.
