No synonyms found about thesaurus_query.vim

Hi @elig0n , I have repeated your symptom. It seems thesaurus.com has changed their page layout again. While I make the change to comply their change, please use "datamuse_com" or any of the local thesaurus source.

let tq_enabled_backends=["thesaurus_com", "openoffice_en", "datamuse_com", "mthesaur_txt"]

Of course, local thesaurus source work only if you have the database downloaded in your file system. "datamuse_com" is an alternative online thesaurus source, and it is still working fine.

[elig0n]

I have tried that and also :

:let tq_enabled_backends=["datamuse_com"]
:Thesaurus word
No synonym found for "word".

[Ron89]

This is strange...

:echo tq_enabled_backends
['datamuse_com']

From the backend, the pluggin is wrapping the API provided by datamuse_com. Could you see if the result from calling following API curl http://api.datamuse.com/words\?rel_syn\=word\&max\=50 is the following json content?

[{"word":"articulate","score":3040},{"word":"intelligence","score":2770},{"word":"phrase","score":2221},{"word":"news","score":1897},{"word":"bible","score":1430},{"word":"discussion","score":1365},{"word":"son","score":1260},{"word":"parole","score":1074},{"word":"formulate","score":1015},{"word":"logos","score":773},{"word":"scripture","score":660},{"word":"tidings","score":601},{"word":"watchword","score":513},{"word":"countersign","score":407},{"word":"password","score":399},{"word":"word of god","score":159},{"word":"give-and-take","score":122},{"word":"holy writ","score":90},{"word":"good book","score":74},{"word":"holy scripture","score":43},{"word":"word of honor","score":33}]

[elig0n]

Yes, with some values differing.

[elig0n]

I do get this when I try to echo tq_enabled_backends :
E121: Undefined variable: tq_enabled_buffers
E15: Invalid expression: tq_enabled_buffers

and through autocompletion I see that I only have tq_map_keys & tq_use_vim_autocomplete

[Ron89]

It looks like your instance of plugin was not loaded properly... Note that this plugin is an autoload plugin. Most of the variables and functions are loaded only upon your first use in the session.

You might want to troubleshoot your rc file to see if there are behaviour altering code with global effect.

Sorry I couldn't spare too much time addressing the thesaurus.com issue these days. I have reactivated datamuse.com as part of the default active backends. It should make this plugin functional for basic use.
I will continue leave this issue open until I have the time, or someone contributed a parser for new thesaurus.com html parser.

[Ron89]

Can I take that this issue is addressed and can close?

[elig0n]

Alright, thanks
