NeoVim UI sweetness.

What's popui all about?

It's a tiny (currently 584 LoC) UI suite designed to make your NeoVim workflow faster. It currently consists of four components:

• ui-overrider: alternative to NeoVim's default vim.ui.select menu
• input-overrider: alternative to NeoVim's default vim.ui.input prompt
• diagnostics-navigator: utility to quickly navigate and jump to LSP diagnostics issues in the current buffer
• marks-manager: utility to quickly navigate, jump to or remove (permanently!) uppercase marks
• references-navigator: utility to quickly navigate and jump to project-wide references to the symbol under the cursor
  
  

See it in action below:

Code action menu popup

Variable renaming input popup

Diagnostics navigator

(Displays all diagnostic messages for the current buffer. Press `Cr` to jump to the currently highlighted diagnostic coordinates.)

Marks manager

(Displays all uppercase marks. Press `Cr` to navigate to a mark's position, press `x` or `d` to permanently delete a mark.)

References navigator

(Displays all found references, Press `Cr` to navigate to the reference's position)

popui.nvim's Issues

Interfere's with other plugin's UI

Vanilla CMake-Tools:

Modified by global vim.ui:

Behavior on <ESC> or <Ctrl-C>

When the popup menu is open, both<Ctrl-C> and should cancel and exit the menu immediately.

Currently, <Ctrl-C> does nothing, and <Esc> does not exit the menu immediately (only after timeout) when there are other mappings that is prefixed by <Esc>.

Popup for Variable Renaming (vim.ui.input)

Thanks for this. It works great when running code actions. Is there any way this can be expanded to include renaming variables? I believe this is the vim.ui.input API.

CodeAction seems broken

Hello,

I use NvChad with Popui everything works fine except code_action and diagnostics.

How can I debug this ?

Error when calling popui.diagnostics-navigator

Command :lua require'popui.diagnostics-navigator'() causes an error:

Error about window being too small?

Generally popui works fine with all my files and I am happy about it!
In my .tex document however, where I have >100 warnings (chktex linting is very sensitive) I get the following error:

E5108: Error executing lua .../.local/share/nvim/plugged/popui.nvim/lua/popui/core.lua:54: unable to create the config, your window is too

Zooming out with + + "-" does not help.
Any suggestions besides having less warnings?

no response on popui.diagnostics-navigator

Hi,

I am very curious about this plugin, but can't get it to work. Running NeoVide on Windows. When typing:

:lua require'popui.diagnostics-navigator'()

-- nothing happens. (Not even an error?).

The plug is installed, I have the following lines inside the lua section of my vimrc:

  vim.ui.select = require"popui.ui-overrider"
  vim.ui.input = require"popui.input-overrider"

Thanks!

C-w doesn't delete word in insert mode

While inside the pop-up, I would expect C-w to delete a word backwards rather than act like C-w in normal mode.

Unable to open diagnostics navigator again

Hello! Thanks for your plugin.

I had some break so I guess it is not caused by any new commits.
When I try to call require('pop.diagnostics-navigator')() I'm getting this error:

Error: 'replacement string' items contain newlines

When the list of choices have a title with multiple lines I get this error and the items in the popui window turn not selectable.

Particularly, haskell-language-server pops up the following (yet stupid) choice when some dependencies are missing:

Failed to find the GHC version of this Cabal project.
Error when calling cabal exec -v0 -- ghc --print-libdir:
1: Try to restart
Type number and <Enter> or click with the mouse (q or empty cancels):

Note the two lines before the choice.

The following patch fixes the issue for me:

There is another (seemingly unrelated) issue after applying the patch. The two string concatenates well but the tail gets lost, it prints only Failed to find the GHC version of this Cabal project. Error when calling cabal exec -v0 -- ghc --print, i.e. the -libdir: part was lost. This is something related to math: when I have replaced + 4 by +6 in getWindowConfiguration(), the title was printed completely.
