Release v0.17.0

This release brings major changes to VCaml. It is compatible with Neovim 0.9.1.

  • New: Updated API bindings for Neovim 0.9.1.
  • New: Feature parity for Lua in VCaml.
  • New: Updated VCaml examples to be more instructive for plugin development.
  • New: block_nvim function that will block Neovim for the duration of the callback.
  • New: API calls no longer need to be batched. Use block_nvim to block Neovim.
  • New: Fail API calls in blocking callbacks that have been keyboard-interrupted.
  • New: run_in_background function provided to blocking callbacks to kick off background jobs that talk to Neovim.
  • New: Improved typing for many API bindings, including a new GADT for modeling options.
  • New: API support for checking b:changedtick on asynchronous buffer updates.
  • New: Support TCP connections to Neovim.
  • New: Tests for many more API functions.
  • New: Property-based tests for blocking client semantics.
  • Cleanup: Defunctorized and simplified the vcaml.plugin interface.
  • Removed: shutdown argument in persistent plugins (use shutdown from Async to shut down).
  • Removed: mli-cycler plugin (use OCaml-LSP for cycling).
  • Removed: Api_call.t applicative that was used for batching.
  • Removed: Luaref.
  • Made [Ui_event.t] forwards-compatible.
  • VCaml buffer text is now represented as [String.Utf8.t]

Release v0.16.0

This release has minor changes from v0.15.0 and is compatible with Neovim 0.7.0. It is known to be incompatible with Neovim 0.7.2+. The next release will have extensive changes and will be compatible with Neovim 0.9.0.

  • New: Updated API bindings for Neovim 0.7.0.
  • New: Or_current submodules have been added to Buffer, Window and Tabpage to indicate the current buffer, window, or tab respectively.
  • New: The man-in-the-middle debugger has been rewritten to be more useful and intuitive.
  • New: Keymap.set now takes description and unique arguments.
  • Cleanup: Misc. changes to the API functions to improve naming & ergonomics.
  • Warn: The addition of Luaref where present is a mistake and should not be used. These references will be removed in the next version of VCaml, which will also interact better with Lua.

Release v0.15.0

This release is compatible with Neovim 0.5.0.

  • New: Automatic handling of keyboard interrupts.
  • New: vcaml.plugin library as framework for writing plugins with common patterns.
  • New: Examples to demonstrate usage of vcaml.plugin library.
  • New: Blocking callbacks are allowed to use Async.
  • New: Errors that occur in VCaml callbacks are displayed in Neovim.
  • New: Support for typing VimL vararg functions.
  • New: Nvim.echo_in_rpcrequest hack to support displaying messages while Neovim is blocked.
  • New: Top-level debugger for driving Neovim from utop.
  • New: Support for drawing Neovim in tests.
  • New: Support for sending notifications to Neovim in addition to requests.
  • New: Msgpack man-in-the-middle debugger.
  • New: Mli-cycler plugin for cycling between ml and mli files.
  • Cleanup: Misc. changes to the API functions and types in the API to improve types & ergonomics.
  • Fix: Broken behavior in Buffer.find_by_name_or_create when passed empty string - it now creates a new buffer instead of returning the current one.
  • Fix: Buffer subscription race that could lead to missed events.
  • Fix: Sharp corner where registering an async handler could just run the handler at registration time and register the result.
  • Fix: Bug where passing too many arguments would still run the function even though the error would be reported.
  • Fix: RPC layer robust to write failures.
