unable to reproduce, i hope you are using latest nvchad

[siduck]

have you disabled semantic highlighting?

[patrykk21]

I'm using NvChad 2.5.

Not sure what semantic highlight is? Could you provide more info?

I'm adding the plugin setting to plugin/auto-session.lua not init.lua, does that matter?

I think I'm using NvChad completely wrong and that's why I'm having this issue.

I pushed my dotfiles here if you are willing to have a look: https://github.com/patrykk21/dotfiles/tree/master/nvim

Particularly I think I'm very wrong about the plugins/init.lua 😅
But I didn't know how to update the dependencies or configurations of some plugins without copy and pasting the config.

[siduck]

i'll test your config tonight and let u knowo

[patrykk21]

I'll buy a couple of coffees for the effort 🙏🏻 Thank you so much

[siduck]

@patrykk21 go to your lspconfig and add on_init for lua_ls

[siduck]

Also if you face discoloration of some highlight groups

just add this in your main init.lua file

dofile(vim.g.nvchad_theme .. "syntax")
dofile(vim.g.nvchad_theme .. "treesitter")

i know its a workaround, but that wrong color issue happens only with that session plugin

[patrykk21]

Thank you for your help!

So by adding dofile(vim.g.nvchad_theme .. "syntax") I don't have the issue with the session plugin anymore.
I added it to the config step of 'lspconfig` plugin.

But with or without the session plugin I noticed that my colors don't change whether I have LSP turned on or not, I thought LSP should be coloring text parts better?
I just want to make sure I'm not missing out on some LSP improvements

PS. sent you some 💵 for ☕

[patrykk21]

Oh... It's semanticTokens and NvChad disables them by default. Figured that out :)
I like it more disabled tbf hahah feels faster

I'd have a question about dofile - if I may.
What is it exactly and how do I use it properly?

Thanks for the 💸

dofile basically loads a lua file, like require function can be used to import lua modules with names. But in dofile you have to enter full path of the lua file. thats why i used the vim.g.base46_cache global !!

I thought LSP should be coloring text parts better

yes it should but i think in some languages only, if you get better semantic token highlights on non nvchad configs then raise an issue on base46 repo. Also you need to add our base46 semantic_tokens integration . Only a set of base46 integrations are loaded and compiled by default in nvchad.

To add a base46 integration, check https://nvchad.com/docs/config/theming/#integrations
