A Neovim plugin that configures the lua-language-server to provide full signature help, documentation, and completion for the Neovim Lua API in init.lua and plugin development. It is now end-of-life, with lazydev.nvim recommended as its replacement for Neovim >= 0.10.

Use cases

• get completion for vim.api functions in my neovim config
• signature help and docs for the nvim lua api
• set up lua language server for neovim plugin development
• autocomplete for vim.opt and vim.loop in init.lua
• configure lua_ls workspace for neovim runtime and plugins

When to choose

• you are on Neovim 0.7 to 0.9 and want full Lua API completion and docs
• you develop Neovim plugins in Lua and want proper require paths and plugin workspace libraries

When to avoid

• you are on Neovim >= 0.10, where lazydev.nvim is the recommended faster replacement
• you need a project that is actively developed, since this one is EOL
