INTRODUCTION *neocomplete-introduction*
*neocomplete* is the next generation auto completion framework and a superior
successor of the |neocomplcache| plugin. It provides a keyword completion
system by maintaining a keyword cache of the current buffer. The neocomplete
framework can be customized easily and has a lot more features than Vim's
standard completion.
Note: neocomplete may consume more memory than other plugins do.
Improvements in neocomplete in comparison to |neocomplcache|:
1. Real fuzzy match behavior like |YouCompleteMe| by default.
2. Refactored source interface.
3. Removed legacy interface.
4. Requires |if_lua|.
5. Optimized completion speed.
6. Changed source names.
7. Changed variable names.
8. Added new features.
==============================================================================
INSTALL *neocomplete-install*
Install prerequisites
In order to use neocomplete, the following prerequisites have to be met:
1. Vim build with the |if_lua| feature
2. Vim version 7.3.885 or above
The following sections describe where to get a Vim version, neocomplete
works with, for your operating system.
On Windows:
github release https://github.com/vim/vim-win32-installer/releases
For 32bit http://files.kaoriya.net/goto/vim73w32
For 32bit (alternative) http://tuxproject.de/projects/vim/
http://wyw.dcweb.cn/#download
For 64bit http://files.kaoriya.net/goto/vim73w64
On Mac:
You can get |if_lua| enabled MacVim versions here:
https://github.com/zhaocai/macvim
http://code.google.com/p/macvim-kaoriya/
Or install it with homebrew:
>
brew install macvim --with-cscope --with-lua --HEAD
<
On Linux:
As almost all Vim packages offered by distributions are too old, you should
build Vim manually using gnu make and enable |if_lua| in the configuration
step. The following steps show you the general process on how to build Vim:
1. Get the source package
2. Unpack the sources
3. Configure the package (./configure). This step is essential to enable
the Vim features you like to use.
4. Build the package with gnu make
5. Install the package using your distributions package manager
You can find detailed information on ho to configure and build Vim from source
under following link: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Building_Vim. Or follow the
guide on:
https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe/wiki/Building-Vim-from-source
Install the plugin
After you have installed the right version of Vim, you can go on to install
the neocomplete plugin. You can do this in a more old fashioned, manual way
or use a plugin manager like pathogen, vundle, neobundle. The second approach
is the recommended installation method.
Manual:
1. Get the plugin package
2. Extract the files and put them in your Vim directory
(usually ~/.vim/ or Program Files/Vim/vimfiles on Windows).
3. Execute |:NeoCompleteEnable| command or set following variable in your vimrc >
let g:neocomplete#enable_at_startup = 1
Package manager:
For instructions on how to set up a Vim package manager see the documentation
of the package manager of your choice. For example after installing
neobundle you can install the neocomplete plugin with the following steps:
1. Let the plugin manger know about the package (.vimrc) >
NeoBundle 'Shougo/neocomplete.vim'
<
2. Install the plugin with the install command >
:NeoBundleInstall
<
*neocomplete-migration*
In case you are planing to move from neocomplcache to neocomplete there is a
wiki page that offers a migration guide.
https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplete.vim/wiki/neocomplete-migration-guide
*neocomplete-RECOMMENDATION*
*neocomplete-asynchronous*
If you have installed the |vimproc| plugin, neocomplete creates the caches
asynchronously. You can find vimproc at: http://github.com/Shougo/vimproc.
The vimproc plugin needs compilation before you can use it. You can find
further information in the vimproc documentation.
*neocomplete-snippets*
If you would like to use the snippet feature with neocomplete, you need to
install the neosnippet plugin (https://github.com/Shougo/neosnippet.vim) or
UltiSnips (https://github.com/SirVer/ultisnips).
*neocomplete-context-filetype*
If you would like to use the context filetype feature, you need to install the
context_filetype.vim plugin which you can find under the following repository:
https://github.com/Shougo/context_filetype.vim
*neocomplete-include*
If you want to complete the candidates from include files or include files
candidates, you need to install the neoinclude plugin
(https://github.com/Shougo/neoinclude.vim).
*neocomplete-syntax*
If you want to complete the candidates from syntax files, you need to install
the neco-syntax plugin (https://github.com/Shougo/neco-syntax).
*neocomplete-neopairs*
If you want to insert the parentheses pairs automatically, you need to install
the neopairs plugin (https://github.com/Shougo/neopairs.vim).
==============================================================================
INTERFACE *neocomplete-interface*
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMMANDS *neocomplete-commands*
:NeoCompleteEnable *:NeoCompleteEnable*
Validate neocomplete and initialize it.
Warning: Existing cache disappears.
:NeoCompleteDisable *:NeoCompleteDisable*
Invalidate neocomplete and clean it up.
:NeoCompleteToggle *:NeoCompleteToggle*
Change the lock/unlock state of neocomplete.
While neocomplete is in locking, you cannot use automatic
completions.
Note: This command also enables neocomplete if it is disabled.
:NeoCompleteLock *:NeoCompleteLock*
Lock neocomplete.
While neocomplete is in locking, you cannot use automatic
completions but can use manual completions.
The lock status is local to each buffer.
Note: This command is disabled when neocomplete is disabled.
:NeoCompleteUnlock *:NeoCompleteUnlock*
Unlock neocomplete.
Note: This command is disabled when neocomplete is disabled.
*:NeoCompleteAutoCompletionLength*
:NeoCompleteAutoCompletionLength {length}
Change the length of chars to start automatic completion to
{length}.
Note: The length value is local to each buffer.
:NeoCompleteClean *:NeoCompleteClean*
Clean files in |g:neocomplete#data_directory|.
:NeoCompleteSetFileType [filetype] *:NeoCompleteSetFileType*
Change the filetype to [filetype] in the current buffer.
This filetype is only used by neocomplete, so syntax
highlighting and etc stay same.
Note: You can get the current filetype by
|neocomplete#get_context_filetype()|
SOURCES COMMANDS *neocomplete-sources-COMMANDS*
:NeoCompleteBufferMakeCache [bufname] *:NeoCompleteBufferMakeCache*
Make a cache based on the buffer with the name [bufname].
The command selects the current buffer when you omit
[bufname].
If [bufname] is not loaded, neocomplete will open
[bufname] automatically.
Note: It may take time considerably for the big buffer.
*:NeoCompleteDictionaryMakeCache*
:NeoCompleteDictionaryMakeCache [filetype]
Make a cache from a dictionary file with [filetype].
Selects the filetype of the current buffer if [filetype] is
omitted.
:NeoCompleteTagMakeCache *:NeoCompleteTagMakeCache*

Make a member cache based in current buffer.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VARIABLES *neocomplete-variables*
*g:neocomplete#enable_at_startup*
g:neocomplete#enable_at_startup
neocomplete gets started automatically when Vim starts if
this value is 1.
With the default value 0, you cannot use neocomplete
unless you start it manually.
Note: This option has to be set in your .vimrc or _vimrc.
NOT IN the .gvimrc nor _gvimrc!
g:neocomplete#max_list *g:neocomplete#max_list*
This variable controls the number of candidates displayed in a
pop-up menu. If the list of candidates exceeds the limit, not
all candidates will show up.
Default value is 100.
*g:neocomplete#max_keyword_width*
g:neocomplete#max_keyword_width
This variable controls the indication width of a candidate
displayed in a pop-up menu. If the keyword length exceeds
the length it will be cut down properly.
Default value is 80.
*g:neocomplete#auto_completion_start_length*
g:neocomplete#auto_completion_start_length
This variable controls the number of the input completion
at the time of key input automatically.
Note: |g:neocomplete#auto_completion_start_length| is used
for "keyword" kind source only. Please refer to
|neocomplete-source-attribute-min_pattern_length|.
Default value is 2.
*g:neocomplete#manual_completion_start_length*
g:neocomplete#manual_completion_start_length
This variable controls the number of the input completion
at the time of manual completion. It is convenient when you
reduce this value, but may get heavy when you deleted a
letter in <C-h> or <BS> at popup indication time.
Default value is 0.
*g:neocomplete#min_keyword_length*
g:neocomplete#min_keyword_length
In a buffer or dictionary files, this variable controls
length of keyword becoming the targets of the completion at
the minimum.
Default value is 4.
*g:neocomplete#enable_ignore_case*
g:neocomplete#enable_ignore_case
When neocomplete looks for candidate completion, this
variable controls whether neocomplete ignores the upper-
and lowercase. If it is 1, neocomplete ignores case.
Default value is 'ignorecase'.
*g:neocomplete#enable_smart_case*
g:neocomplete#enable_smart_case
When a capital letter is included in input, neocomplete does
not ignore the upper- and lowercase.
Default value is 'infercase'.
*g:neocomplete#enable_camel_case*
g:neocomplete#enable_camel_case
When a capital letter is matched with the uppercase, but a
lower letter is matched with the upper- and lowercase.
Ex: "foB" is matched with "FooBar" not "foobar".
Note: This feature is only available in
|neocomplete-filter-matcher_fuzzy|.
Default value is 0.
*g:neocomplete#disable_auto_complete*
g:neocomplete#disable_auto_complete
This variable controls whether you invalidate automatic
completion. If it is 1, automatic completion becomes
invalid, but can use the manual completion by
|neocomplete#start_manual_complete()|.
Default value is 0.
*g:neocomplete#auto_complete_delay*
g:neocomplete#auto_complete_delay
It is the auto completion delay time after your input.
The unit is ms.
Note: It requires |+timers| feature.
Note: It is disabled in MacVim.
Default value is 50.
*g:neocomplete#enable_auto_select*
g:neocomplete#enable_auto_select
When neocomplete displays candidates, this option controls
whether neocomplete selects the first candidate
automatically. If you enable this option, neocomplete's
completion behavior is like |AutoComplPop|.
Note: If you want to enable the feature in
|g:neocomplete#force_omni_input_patterns|, you need Vim
7.4.775 or above.
Default value is 0.
*g:neocomplete#enable_auto_delimiter*
g:neocomplete#enable_auto_delimiter
This option controls whether neocomplete insert delimiter
automatically. For example, / (filenames) or # (Vim scripts.)
Default value is 0.
*g:neocomplete#enable_fuzzy_completion*
g:neocomplete#enable_fuzzy_completion
When you input one character, this variable controls whether
neocomplete takes an ambiguous searching as an end of the
words in it. For example, neocomplete comes to match it with
"public_html" or "PublicHtml" when you input it with "puh".
Note: The first letter must be matched.
Default value is 1.
*g:neocomplete#enable_refresh_always*
g:neocomplete#enable_refresh_always
Neocomplete refreshes the candidates automatically if this
value is 1.
Note: It increases the screen flicker.
Default value is 0.
*g:neocomplete#enable_multibyte_completion*
g:neocomplete#enable_multibyte_completion
If it is non-0, neocomplete can complete multibyte characters.
Note: This feature may conflict Input Method in Unix systems.
Note: To use multibyte completion, you must change
|g:neocomplete#keyword_patterns| variable.
Default value is 0.
*g:neocomplete#lock_buffer_name_pattern*
g:neocomplete#lock_buffer_name_pattern
This variable sets a pattern of the buffer name. If matched it,
neocomplete does not complete automatically. When it is an
empty character string, neocomplete will ignore it.
Default value is ''.
g:neocomplete#lock_iminsert *g:neocomplete#lock_iminsert*
If this variable is non-zero, neocomplete locks when
'iminsert' is non-zero.
Default value is 0.
g:neocomplete#data_directory *g:neocomplete#data_directory*
This variable appoints the directory that neocomplete
begins to write a file at one time. When there is not the
directory which appointed here, it is made. For example,
buffer.vim stores cache of the keyword in this
'buffer_cache' sub directory.
Default value is "$XDG_CACHE_HOME/neocomplete" or
expand("~/.cache/neocomplete"); the absolute path of it.
*g:neocomplete#keyword_patterns*
g:neocomplete#keyword_patterns
This dictionary records keyword patterns to completion.
This is appointed in regular expression every file type.
If the key is "_" or "default", it is used for default
pattern.
Because it is complicated, refer to
neocomplete#init#_variables() in
autoload/neocomplete/init.vim for the initial value.
>
" Examples:
if !exists('g:neocomplete#keyword_patterns')
let g:neocomplete#keyword_patterns = {}
endif
let g:neocomplete#keyword_patterns._ = '\h\w*'
<
*g:neocomplete#force_omni_input_patterns*
g:neocomplete#force_omni_input_patterns
This dictionary records keyword patterns to Omni completion.
This is appointed in regular expression every file type.
If this pattern is not defined or empty pattern, neocomplete
does not call 'omnifunc'.
Note: If it is a set, neocomplete will call 'omnifunc'
directly. So almost neocomplete features are disabled. But
all Omni completion works instead of
|g:neocomplete#sources#omni#input_patterns|.
>
if !exists('g:neocomplete#force_omni_input_patterns')
let g:neocomplete#force_omni_input_patterns = {}
endif
let g:neocomplete#force_omni_input_patterns.ruby =
\ '[^. *\t]\.\w*\|\h\w*::'

Because it is complicated, refer to
neocomplete#init#_variables() in
autoload/neocomplete/init.vim for the initial value.
*g:neocomplete#text_mode_filetypes*
g:neocomplete#text_mode_filetypes
It is a dictionary to define text mode filetypes. The
dictionary's key is filetype and value is number. If the
value is non-zero, this filetype is text mode. In text mode,
neocomplete supports word conversion to write English.
If the key is "_" and the value is non-zero, all filetypes are
text mode.
For example, if you input "Fo", neocomplete will convert
candidate "foo" to "Foo". If you input "foo", neocomplete
will convert candidate "FooBar" to "foobar". If you input
"FO", neocomplete will convert candidate "foo" to "FOO".
Note: Text mode conversion is only used for "foobar" or
"Foobar" or "FOOBAR" words. Not "fooBar" or "FooBar".
Because it is complicated, refer to
neocomplete#init#_variables() in
autoload/neocomplete/init.vim for the initial value.
*g:neocomplete#delimiter_patterns*
g:neocomplete#delimiter_patterns
This variable appoints a delimiter pattern to smart complete a
function. This is appointed in string list every file type.
Note: This string is not regular expression.
>
" Examples:
if !exists('g:neocomplete#delimiter_patterns')
let g:neocomplete#delimiter_patterns= {}

let g:neocomplete#delimiter_patterns.vim = ['#']
let g:neocomplete#delimiter_patterns.cpp = ['::']
<
Because it is complicated, refer to
neocomplete#init#_variables() in
autoload/neocomplete/init.vim for the initial value.
g:neocomplete#sources *g:neocomplete#sources*
It is a dictionary to decide use source names. The key is
filetype and the value is source names list. If the key is
"_", the value will be used for default filetypes. For
example, you can disable some sources in C++ filetype.
If the value is "_", it will load all sources.
Default value is {}.
>
" Examples:
if !exists('g:neocomplete#sources')
let g:neocomplete#sources = {}
endif
let g:neocomplete#sources._ = ['buffer']
let g:neocomplete#sources.cpp = ['buffer', 'dictionary']
<
b:neocomplete_sources *b:neocomplete_sources*
It is a list to decide use source names in buffer local.

" In cmdwin, only use vim source.
autocmd CmdwinEnter * let b:neocomplete_sources = ['vim']
<
*g:neocomplete#release_cache_time*
g:neocomplete#release_cache_time
This variable defines time of automatic released cache by a
second unit.
Default value is 900.
*g:neocomplete#tags_filter_patterns*
g:neocomplete#tags_filter_patterns
This dictionary records a pattern to filter a candidate in
the tag completion. For example, it can exclude a candidate
beginning in _ in file type of C/C++.
Because it is complicated, refer to
neocomplete#init#_variables() in
autoload/neocomplete/init.vim for the initial value.
g:neocomplete#use_vimproc *g:neocomplete#use_vimproc*
This variable is non 0, neocomplete uses |vimproc|.
Note: If this variable is non 0, neocomplete will make cache
asynchronously.
Default value is vimproc auto detection result.
*g:neocomplete#skip_auto_completion_time*
g:neocomplete#skip_auto_completion_time
It is a string for skip auto completion.
If completion time is higher than it, neocomplete will skip
auto completion.
If it is "", the skip feature will be disabled.
Default value is "0.3".
{only available when compiled with the |+reltime| feature}
*g:neocomplete#enable_auto_close_preview*
g:neocomplete#enable_auto_close_preview
If it is non-zero, neocomplete will close preview window
automatically.
Default value is 0.
*g:neocomplete#fallback_mappings*
g:neocomplete#fallback_mappings
Neocomplete fallback mappings.
If you want to complete keywords by neocomplete and the
omnifunc, it is useful. >
" Search from neocomplete, omni candidates, vim keywords.

Default value is [].
SOURCES VARIABLES *neocomplete-sources-variables*
*g:neocomplete#sources#buffer#cache_limit_size*
g:neocomplete#sources#buffer#cache_limit_size
This variable sets file size to make a cache of a file. If
open file is bigger than this size, neocomplete does not
make a cache.
Default value is 500000.
*g:neocomplete#sources#buffer#disabled_pattern*
g:neocomplete#sources#buffer#disabled_pattern
This variable sets a pattern of the buffer file path. If
matched it, neocomplete does not save a cache of the buffer.
When it is an empty character string, neocomplete will
ignore.
Default value is ''.
*g:neocomplete#sources#buffer#max_keyword_width*
g:neocomplete#sources#buffer#max_keyword_width
If the keyword length exceeds the length it will be not shown
in popup menu.
Default value is 80.
*g:neocomplete#sources#dictionary#dictionaries*
g:neocomplete#sources#dictionary#dictionaries
It is a dictionary to connect a dictionary file with file
type. The dictionary's key is filetype and comma-separated
multiple value is a path to a dictionary file. If the
variable is unset or has an empty key, the native 'dictionary'
option will be inherited. When you set "text"
key, you will appoint dictionary files in text mode. If the
key is "_", it is loaded in every filetype.
Note: Global 'dictionary' file is not loaded automatically.
Default value is {}.
*g:neocomplete#sources#member#prefix_patterns*
g:neocomplete#sources#member#prefix_patterns
This variable appoints a prefix pattern to complete a member
in buffer.
This is appointed in regular expression every file type.
If filetype key is not set, disable member completion.
Because it is complicated, refer in
autoload/neocomplete/sources/buffer.vim for the
initial value.
*g:neocomplete#sources#member#input_patterns*
g:neocomplete#sources#member#input_patterns
This variable appoints a keyword pattern to complete a member
in buffer.
This is appointed in regular expression every file type.
If filetype key is not set, use filetype "_" setting.
Because it is complicated, refer in
autoload/neocomplete/sources/buffer.vim for the
initial value.
*g:neocomplete#sources#omni#functions*
g:neocomplete#sources#omni#functions
This dictionary which appoints omni source call functions.
The key is 'filetype'. The value is omnifunc name String or
List of omnifunc name String.
If |g:neocomplete#sources#omni#functions| [&filetype] is
undefined, omni source calls 'omnifunc'.
If the key is "_", used for all filetypes.
Default value is {}.
*g:neocomplete#sources#omni#input_patterns*
g:neocomplete#sources#omni#input_patterns
This dictionary records keyword patterns used in
omni source. This is appointed in regular expression
every file type or 'omnifunc' name. If this pattern is not
defined or empty pattern, neocomplete does not call
'omnifunc'.
Note: ruby and php omnifunc are disabled, because they are too
slow.
Note: Partial omnifunc has problem when neocomplete call (Ex:
rubycomplete, jedi.vim, cocoa.vim, and clang_complete.) You
should |g:neocomplete#force_omni_input_patterns| instead.
Because it is complicated, refer to s:source.initialize()
autoload/neocomplete/sources/omni.vim for the
initial value.

neocomplete does not make a tags cache.
Default value is 500000.
*g:neocomplete#sources#vim#complete_functions*
g:neocomplete#sources#vim#complete_functions
This dictionary which appoints vim source call function
when completes custom and customlist command. The key is
command name. The value is function name.

FUNCTIONS *neocomplete-functions*
neocomplete#initialize() *neocomplete#initialize()*
Initialize neocomplete and sources.
Note: It enables neocomplete.
Note: You should call it in |VimEnter| autocmd.
User customization for neocomplete must be set before
initialization of neocomplete.
neocomplete#custom#source({source-name}, {option-name}, {value})
*neocomplete#custom#source()*
Set {source-name} source specialized {option-name}
to {value}. You may specify multiple sources with
separating "," in {source-name}.
If {source-name} is "_", sources default option will be
change.
These options below are available:
|neocomplete-source-attributes|
Note: User customization for neocomplete must be set before
initialization of neocomplete.
*neocomplete#custom_source()*
neocomplete#custom_source() is used for compatibility.
*neocomplete#get_context_filetype()*
neocomplete#get_context_filetype()
Get current context filetype of the cursor. This is smarter
than 'filetype' about handling nested filetypes.
Note: To enable context filetype feature, you must install
context_filetype.vim.
https://github.com/Shougo/context_filetype.vim
For example html filetype has javascript inside. Say, you have
a buffer which content is below with filetype is html.
>
<script type="text/javascript">
var x = 1;
</script>
<
At the line 1 and 3, neocomplete#get_context_filetype() is
"html" and at the line 2 it's "javascript", while at any
lines 'filetype' is "html".
*neocomplete#disable_default_dictionary()*
neocomplete#disable_default_dictionary({variable-name})
Disable default {variable-name} dictionary initialization.
Note: It must be called in .vimrc.
*neocomplete#get_default_matchers()*
neocomplete#get_default_matchers()
Get default matchers in current buffer.
*neocomplete#set_default_matchers()*
neocomplete#set_default_matchers({names})
Chang default matchers in current buffer.
>
call neocomplete#set_default_matchers('matcher_head')
<
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
KEY MAPPINGS *neocomplete-key-mappings*
*neocomplete#start_manual_complete()*
neocomplete#start_manual_complete([{sources}])
Use this function on inoremap <expr>. The keymapping call the
completion of neocomplete. When you rearrange the completion
of the Vim standard, you use it.
If you give {sources} argument, neocomplete call {sources}.
{sources} is name of source or list of sources name.
>
inoremap <expr><Tab> neocomplete#start_manual_complete()
<
*neocomplete#close_popup()*
neocomplete#close_popup()
Insert candidate and close popup menu for neocomplete.
Note: It is deprecated function. You should use "\<C-y>"
character instead.
*neocomplete#cancel_popup()*
neocomplete#cancel_popup()
Cancel completion menu for neocomplete.
Note: It is deprecated function. You should use "\<C-e>"
character instead.
*neocomplete#smart_close_popup()*
neocomplete#smart_close_popup()
Insert candidate and re-generate popup menu for neocomplete.
Unlike |neocomplete#close_popup()|, this function changes
behavior by |g:neocomplete#enable_auto_select| smart.
Note: This mapping is conflicted with |SuperTab| or |endwise|
plugins.
Note: This key mapping is for <C-h> or <BS> keymappings.
You should not use it for <CR>.
*neocomplete#undo_completion()*
neocomplete#undo_completion()
Use this function on inoremap <expr> to undo inputted
candidate. Because there is not mechanism to cancel
candidate in Vim, it will be convenient when it inflects.
>
inoremap <expr><C-g> neocomplete#undo_completion()
<
*neocomplete#complete_common_string()*
neocomplete#complete_common_string()
Use this function on inoremap <expr> to complete common
string in candidates. It will be convenient when candidates
have long common string.
>

SOURCES *neocomplete-sources*
neocomplete reads automatically sources saved in an
autoload/neocomplete/sources directory.
buffer *neocomplete-source-buffer*
This source collects keywords from buffer.
member *neocomplete-source-member*
This source collects use of member variables from buffer.
tag *neocomplete-source-tag*
This source analyzes a tag file from tagfiles() for completion.
When a huge tag file (above
|g:neocomplete#sources#tags#cache_limit_size|) is set,
neocomplete does not make cache if you do not execute
|:NeoCompleteTagMakeCache| command. Because tag is
too slow if tag read a big tags file. You should use
more convenient include source completion now.
dictionary *neocomplete-source-dictionary*
This source adds candidates from 'dictionary' or
|g:neocomplete#sources#dictionary#dictionaries|.
file *neocomplete-source-file*
This source collects filename candidates.
Note: It is relative path to current buffer directory.
omni *neocomplete-source-omni*
This source calls 'omnifunc' automatically when cursor
text is matched with
|g:neocomplete#sources#omni#input_patterns|. If
|g:neocomplete_omni_function_list| is defined, neocomplete
will give priority it.
Note: It supports the fuzzy match using the previous result.

USER SOURCES *neocomplete-user-sources*
This section, introduce non default neocomplete sources.
neosnippet *neocomplete-sources-neosnippet*
This source is for snippets completion.
https://github.com/Shougo/neosnippet
UltiSnips *neocomplete-sources-ultisnips*
This source is for UltiSnips snippets completion.
https://github.com/SirVer/ultisnips
neco-ghc *neocomplete-sources-neco-ghc*
https://github.com/eagletmt/neco-ghc
eagletmt originally implemented and ujihisa added some new
features. It completes a source file written in Haskell.
It requires ghc-mod <http://www.mew.org/~kazu/proj/ghc-mod/>.
neco-vim *neocomplete-sources-neco-vim*
https://github.com/Shougo/neco-vim
It analyzes context and start Omni completion of Vim script.
It does not work other than editing time of Vim script. I
created it because neocomplete cannot call |i_CTRL-X_CTRL-V|.
Local variable and a script variable, a function and the
analysis of the command are implemented now.
==============================================================================
FILTERS *neocomplete-filters*
To custom candidates, neocomplete uses the filters. There are three kinds of
filters are available. "matcher" is to filter candidates by user input.
"sorter" is to sort candidates. "converter" is to candidates conversion.
Default sources are below. But you can create original filters (cf:
|neocomplete-create-filter|) and set them by
|neocomplete#custom#source()|.
>
call neocomplete#custom#source(
\ 'buffer', 'converters', [])
" Change default matcher.
call neocomplete#custom#source('_', 'matchers',
\ ['matcher_head', 'matcher_length'])
" Change default sorter.
call neocomplete#custom#source('_', 'sorters',
\ ['sorter_length'])
" Disable sort.
call neocomplete#custom#source('_', 'sorters', [])
" Change default converter.
call neocomplete#custom#source('_', 'converters',
\ ['converter_remove_overlap', 'converter_remove_last_paren',
\ 'converter_delimiter', 'converter_abbr'])
<
*neocomplete-filter-matcher_default*
Default matchers:
If |g:neocomplete#enable_fuzzy_completion|:
['matcher_head', 'matcher_length']
Otherwise:
['matcher_fuzzy', 'matcher_length']
You can change it by |neocomplete#set_default_matchers()|.
*neocomplete-filter-sorter_default*
Default sorters: ['sorter_rank'].
*neocomplete-filter-converter_default*
Default converters: ['converter_remove_overlap',
\ 'converter_delimiter', 'converter_abbr'].
*neocomplete-filter-matcher_head*
matcher_head Head matching matcher.
*neocomplete-filter-matcher_fuzzy*
matcher_fuzzy Fuzzy matching matcher.
*neocomplete-filter-matcher_length*
matcher_length Input keyword length matcher. It removes candidates which is
less than input keyword length.
*neocomplete-filter-matcher_nothing*
matcher_nothing Nothing matcher. It disables the matcher filtering.
*neocomplete-filter-sorter_rank*
sorter_rank Matched rank order sorter. The higher the matched word is
already selected or in current buffer
*neocomplete-filter-sorter_length*
sorter_length Candidates length order sorter.
*neocomplete-filter-sorter_word*
sorter_word Candidates word order sorter.
*neocomplete-filter-converter_abbr*
converter_abbr
The converter which abbreviates a candidate's abbr.
*neocomplete-filter-converter_disable_abbr*
converter_disable_abbr
The converter which disables a candidate's abbr.
*neocomplete-filter-converter_delimiter*
converter_delimiter
The converter which abbreviates a candidate's delimiter.
(cf: |g:neocomplete#delimiter_patterns|)
*neocomplete-filter-converter_remove_overlap*
converter_remove_overlap
The converter which removes overlapped text in a candidate's
word.
Note: It removes candidates which is not overlapped
(it is in auto completion only).
*neocomplete-filter-converter_remove_last_paren*
converter_remove_last_paren
The converter which removes last parentheses in a
candidate's word. It is useful if you use auto closing
parentheses plugins.
*neocomplete-filter-converter_add_paren*
converter_add_paren
The converter which adds parentheses in a candidate's word. It
is useful if you use |neopairs.vim| or |neosnippet.vim|
plugins.
==============================================================================
CREATE SOURCE *neocomplete-create-source*
In this clause, I comment on a method to make source of neocomplete. The
ability of neocomplete will spread by creating source by yourself.
The files in autoload/neocomplete/sources are automatically loaded and it
calls neocomplete#sources#{source_name}#define() whose return value is the
source. Each return value can be a list so you can return an empty list to
avoid adding undesirable sources. To add your own sources dynamically, you
can use |neocomplete#define_source()|.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SOURCE ATTRIBUTES *neocomplete-source-attributes*
*neocomplete-source-attribute-name*
name String (Required)
The name of a source. Allowed characters are:
- a-z
- 0-9
- _
- /
- - (Not head)
*neocomplete-source-attribute-kind*
kind String (Optional)
The kind of the source. It decides the behaviour of the
complete position. The following values are available:
"manual": The source decides the complete position manually
with the "get_complete_position" attribute.
See also:
|neocomplete-source-attribute-get_complete_position|
"keyword": The source decides the complete position with
|g:neocomplete#keyword_patterns|. This pattern is
also used to filter the candidates.
Note that "plugin", "complfunc" and "ftplugin" are old values
that are no longer accepted.
*neocomplete-source-attribute-filetypes*
filetypes Dictionary (Optional)
Available filetype dictionary.
For example:
>
let source = {
\ 'name' : 'test',
\ 'kind' : 'manual',
\ 'filetypes' : { 'vim' : 1, 'html' : 1 },
\}
<
The source is available in vim and html filetypes.
If you omit it, this source available in all filetypes.
*neocomplete-source-attribute-disabled_filetypes*
disabled_filetypes Dictionary (Optional)
Not available filetype dictionary.
If the key is "_", the source is disabled in all sources.
*neocomplete-source-attribute-rank*
rank Number (Optional)
Source priority. Higher values imply higher priority.
If you omit it, it is set below value.
Note: It is high priority than match position.
If kind attribute is "keyword": 5
If filetype attribute is empty: 10
Otherwise: 100
Example:
>
" Change vim source default rank value of 300.
call neocomplete#custom#source('ultisnips', 'rank', 1000)
<
*neocomplete-source-attribute-min_pattern_length*
min_pattern_length
Number (Optional)
Required pattern length for completion.
If you omit it, it is set to
|g:neocomplete#auto_completion_start_length|
*neocomplete-source-attribute-input_pattern*
input_pattern
String (Optional)
If it is matched, neocomplete ignores
|neocomplete-source-attribute-min_pattern_length|.
It is useful for omni function sources.
If you omit it, it is set to "".
*neocomplete-source-attribute-max_candidates*
max_candidates
Number (Optional)
The maximum number of candidates.
This attribute is optional; if it is not given, 0 is used as
the default value. This means maximum number is infinity.
*neocomplete-source-attribute-keyword_patterns*
keyword_patterns
Dictionary (Optional)
This dictionary changes keyword patterns to completion for
specific types.
>
let keyword_patterns = {}
let keyword_patterns.tex = '\\\?\h\w*'
call neocomplete#custom#source('dictionary',
\ 'keyword_patterns', keyword_patterns)
<
This attribute is optional; if it is not given,
|g:neocomplete#keyword_patterns| is used as the default value.
*neocomplete-source-attribute-is_volatile*
is_volatile Number (Optional)
Whether the source recalculates the candidates everytime the
input is changed.
This attribute is optional.
If it's not given, 0 is set as the default value. In this
case, candidates are cached.
*neocomplete-source-attribute-disabled*
disabled Number (Optional)
This attribute is optional.
If it's not given, 0 is set as the default value.
Otherwise, the source is disabled.
*neocomplete-source-attribute-hooks*
hooks Dictionary (Optional)
You may put hook functions in this dictionary in which the key
is the position to hook and the value is the reference to the
function to be called. The following hook functions are
defined:
*neocomplete-source-attribute-hooks-on_init*
on_init
Called when initializing the source.
This function takes {context} as its parameters.
*neocomplete-source-attribute-hooks-on_final*
on_final
Called after executing |:NeoCompleteDisable|.
This function takes {context} as its parameters.
*neocomplete-source-attribute-hooks-on_post_filter*
on_post_filter
Called after the filters to narrow down the
candidates. This is used to set attributes. This
filters is to avoid adversely affecting the
performance.
This function takes {context} as its parameters.
*neocomplete-source-attribute-get_complete_position*
get_complete_position Function (Optional)
This function takes {context} as its parameter and returns
complete position in current line.
Here, {context} is the context information when the source is
called(|neocomplete-notation-{context}|).
If you omit it, neocomplete will use the position using
|g:neocomplete#keyword_patterns|.
Note: If the source returns candidates which are not matched
|g:neocomplete#keyword_patterns|, you must define
|neocomplete-source-attribute-get_complete_position|.
*neocomplete-source-attribute-gather_candidates*
gather_candidates Function (Required)
This function is called in gathering candidates. If you
enabled fuzzy completion by
|g:neocomplete#enable_fuzzy_completion| , this function is
called whenever the input string is changed. This function

FAQ *neocomplete-faq*
Q: My customization for neocomplete is invalid. Why?
A: User customization for neocomplete must be set before initialization of
neocomplete. For example: |neocomplete#custom#source()|
Q: I want to use head match instead of default fuzzy match.
A:
>
let g:neocomplete#enable_fuzzy_completion = 0
<
or
>
call neocomplete#custom#source('_', 'matchers',
\ ['matcher_head', 'matcher_length'])
<
Q: I want to sort candidates by different way.
A:
>
>
call neocomplete#custom#source('_', 'sorters',
\ ['sorter_length'])
<
Q: Is there a way to control the colors used for popup menu using highlight
groups?:
A: Like this:
>
highlight Pmenu ctermbg=8 guibg=#606060
highlight PmenuSel ctermbg=1 guifg=#dddd00 guibg=#1f82cd
highlight PmenuSbar ctermbg=0 guibg=#d6d6d6
<
Q: Python (or Ruby) interface crashes Vim when I use neocomplete or not
responding when input ".":
A: This is not neocomplete's issue. Please report to the maintainers of the
omnicomplete (rubycomplete or pythoncomplete) and its Vim interface. You
should disable omni source in python or ruby.

<
Q: Can I enable quick match?:
A: Quick match feature had been removed in latest neocomplete
because quick match turned into hard to implement.
But you can use |unite.vim| instead to use quick match.
>
imap <expr> - pumvisible() ?
\ "\<Plug>(neocomplete_start_unite_quick_match)" : '-'
<
Q: neocomplete cannot create cache files in "sudo vim":
A: Because neocomplete (and other plugins) creates temporary files in super
user permission by sudo command. You must use sudo.vim or set "Defaults
always_set_home" in "/etc/sudoers", or must use "sudoedit" command.
Ubuntu has a command "sudoedit" which can work well with neocomplete.
I'm not sure if other distros has this command...

Q: I want to support omni patterns for external plugins.
A: You can add find some already found omni patterns and functions at here.
Note: Some patterns are omitted here, (someone should check out those plugin's
source code's complete function, and find out the omni pattern).

Q: Does not indent when I input "else" in ruby filetype.
A:
You must install "vim-ruby" from github to indent in neocomplete first.
https://github.com/vim-ruby/vim-ruby
neocomplete pops up a completion window automatically, but if the popup
window is already visible, Vim cannot indent text. So you must choose "close
popup window manually by <C-y> or <C-e> mappings" or "close popup window by
<CR> user mappings".
Q: <CR> mapping conflicts with |SuperTab| or |endwise| plugins.
A: Please try below settings.
>
" <CR>: close popup and save indent.
inoremap <silent> <CR> <C-r>=<SID>my_cr_function()<CR>

return (pumvisible() ? "\<C-y>" : "" ) . "\<CR>"
" For no inserting <CR> key.

If you set |g:neocomplete#lock_iminsert| is non-zero, it may be fixed.
Q: Freeze for a while and close opened folding when I begin to insert.
https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplcache.vim/issues/368
A: I think you use 'foldmethod' is "expr" or "syntax". It is too heavy to use
neocomplete (or other auto completion.) You should change 'foldmethod'
option or install FastFold plugin.
https://github.com/Konfekt/FastFold
Note: In current version, neocomplete does not restore 'foldmethod'. Because
it is too heavy.
Q: I want to use Pydiction with neocomplete.
A: You should set |g:neocomplete#sources#dictionary#dictionaries|.
neocomplete can load Pydiction dictionary file.
Q: Why does neocomplcache use if_lua besides if_python? Many people may not be
able to use it because they do not have the root privilege to recompile vim.
A:
Because of the following reasons.
1. Python interface is not available on every Vim environment. For example,
Android, iOS, non configured Vim, or etc.
2. Incompatibility between Python2 and Python3. I must rewrite for it.
3. Loading Python interface is slow (10~20ms), but loading Lua interface is
absolutely fast (270ns).
4. Python2 and Python3 are not loaded at the same time on Unix environment.
5. Python itself is too large.
6. Python interface is slower than Lua interface (almost twice.)
7. Lua interface is stable (no crashes on latest Vim.)
8. Using C module (like vimproc, YouCompleteMe) is hard to compile on Windows
environment.
9. Using both Python and C, like YouCompleteMe, is too unstable. Your Vim may
crashes or causes mysterious errors.
10. To build if_lua is easy.
11. I think if_lua is the second level language in Vim (The first is Vim
script.)
Q: I want to disable preview window.
A:
>
set completeopt-=preview
<
Q: I want to use "vim-lua-ftplugin".
https://github.com/xolox/vim-lua-ftplugin
A: Please set |g:neocomplete#sources#omni#input_patterns| as below.
Note: You can not use "vim-lua-ftplugin" on 7.3.885 or below,
because if_lua has double-free problem.

<
Q: Eclim does not work well with neocomplete.
https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplete.vim/issues/39
A: neocomplete does not support eclim. You should use
|g:neocomplete#force_omni_input_patterns| instead of
|g:neocomplete#sources#omni#input_patterns|.
>
if !exists('g:neocomplete#force_omni_input_patterns')
let g:neocomplete#force_omni_input_patterns = {}

Q: I want to get quiet messages in auto completion.
https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplcache.vim/issues/448
A: Before 7.4 patch 314 it was not possible because of vim's default
behavior. If you are using a recent version of vim you can disable the
messages through the 'shortmess' option.
>
if has("patch-7.4.314")
set shortmess+=c
endif
<
For earlier vim versions you can try to hide them by using the settings below
>
autocmd VimEnter *
\ highlight ModeMsg guifg=bg guibg=bg | highlight WarningMsg guifg=bg
<
Q: I don't want to complete too long words.
https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplete.vim/issues/69
A: You can use |g:neocomplete#sources#buffer#max_keyword_width|.
Q: neocomplete will change external completeopt value (longest.)
https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplcache.vim/issues/453
A: It is feature. Because "longest" completeopt conflicts with auto
completion. To use "longest" option, you must disable auto completion.
"longest" is good feature. But it is for manual completion only.
Q: autoclose conflicts with neocomplete.
https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplcache.vim/issues/350
A: It is autoclose mappings problem. I cannot fix it. You should use
auto-pairs plugin instead of it.

Q: I want to complete by Erlang omnifunc.

Q: I want to look selected function's arguments in neocomplete. But I don't
like preview window feature.
https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplete.vim/issues/120
A: You can do it by |echodoc|.
http://github.com/Shougo/echodoc.vim
Q: In ||g:neocomplete#force_omni_input_patterns|,
|g:neocomplete#enable_auto_select| feature is not work.
https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplete.vim/issues/139
A: Please update your Vim to 7.4.775 or above.
Q: I want to disable all sources by default.
A: >
call neocomplete#custom#source('_', 'disabled', 1)
Q: I want to disable candidates abbr in tag source.
https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplete.vim/issues/158
A: >
call neocomplete#custom#source('tags', 'converters',
\ ['converter_remove_overlap', 'converter_remove_last_paren',
\ 'converter_delimiter', 'converter_disable_abbr', 'converter_abbr'])
Q: <C-x><C-u> does not work.
https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplete.vim/issues/305
A: It is feature.
You must use |neocomplete#start_manual_complete()| instead of <C-x><C-u>.
Q: My <C-l> mapping never works.
A: https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplete.vim/issues/334
Note: It is fixed in Vim 7.4.653.
Q: When I press enter, Vim inserts new line instead of selected item.
A: It is Vim's default behavior (feature.) If you want to select the item, you
should map <CR>. >
inoremap <expr><CR> pumvisible()? "\<C-y>" : "\<CR>"
Q: After updating Vim, some completion plugins automatically select the last
candidate in the popup menu.
A: Vim 7.4.775 introduced "noselect" and "noinsert" options for 'completeopt'.
It is likely that those completion plugins use keymappings such as <C-p> to
display the popup menu. However, there is no need to do this after 7.4.775
since neocomplete.vim handles that part. If that's the case, you will need to
contact the author of the plugin and have it not send those key strokes if
"noselect" or "noinsert" option is present in 'completeopt'.
Q: Any plan to support Vim 8.0 async API?
A: No.
