lsp-inlayhints.nvim

Partial implementation of LSP inlay hint.

Installation

Add lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim using your favorite plugin manager and call require("lsp-inlayhints").setup(). See Configuration.

You can lazy load it on module or LspAttach event if you're calling it after nvim has attached the server.

on_attach

require("lsp-inlayhints").on_attach(client, bufnr)

LspAttach

For >0.8, you can use the LspAttach event:

vim.api.nvim_create_augroup("LspAttach_inlayhints", {})
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("LspAttach", {
  group = "LspAttach_inlayhints",
  callback = function(args)
    if not (args.data and args.data.client_id) then
      return
    end

    local bufnr = args.buf
    local client = vim.lsp.get_client_by_id(args.data.client_id)
    require("lsp-inlayhints").on_attach(client, bufnr)
  end,
})

Configuration

If and which InlayHints are provided depends on the language server's configuration. Read their docs.

Highlight

Highlight group is LspInlayHint; defaults to Comment foreground with CursorLine background, creating a 'block'-like effect.

A common suggestion is to use Comment, either by linking it (hi link LspInlayHint Comment) or setting it in the options.

VSCode's dark theme is similar to hi LspInlayHint guifg=#d8d8d8 guibg=#3a3a3a.

Default Configuration

You only need to pass the options you want to override.

local default_config = {
  inlay_hints = {
    parameter_hints = {
      show = true,
      prefix = "<- ",
      separator = ", ",
      remove_colon_start = false,
      remove_colon_end = true,
    },
    type_hints = {
      -- type and other hints
      show = true,
      prefix = "",
      separator = ", ",
      remove_colon_start = false,
      remove_colon_end = false,
    },
    only_current_line = false,
    -- separator between types and parameter hints. Note that type hints are
    -- shown before parameter
    labels_separator = "  ",
    -- whether to align to the length of the longest line in the file
    max_len_align = false,
    -- padding from the left if max_len_align is true
    max_len_align_padding = 1,
    -- highlight group
    highlight = "LspInlayHint",
    -- virt_text priority
    priority = 0,
  },
  enabled_at_startup = true,
  debug_mode = false,
}

Languages

Should work for all languages that implement the spec. Tested on rust-analyzer (via rust-tools.nvim), fsautocomplete (via ionide.vim), sumneko_lua, gopls, tsserver.

Rust

If you're using rust-tools.nvim, set inlay_hints.auto to false.

require("rust-tools").setup({
    tools = {
        inlay_hints = {
            auto = false
        }
    }
})

TypeScript

tsserver is spec compliant from v1.1.0 onwards. If you're using an older version, add require("lsp-inlayhints.adapter").set_old_tsserver().

See typescript-language-server#workspacedidchangeconfiguration.

Example configuration to enable inlay hints in TypeScript and JavaScript, using lspconfig:
lspconfig.tsserver.setup({
  settings = {
    typescript = {
      inlayHints = {
        includeInlayParameterNameHints = 'all',
        includeInlayParameterNameHintsWhenArgumentMatchesName = false,
        includeInlayFunctionParameterTypeHints = true,
        includeInlayVariableTypeHints = true,
        includeInlayVariableTypeHintsWhenTypeMatchesName = false,
        includeInlayPropertyDeclarationTypeHints = true,
        includeInlayFunctionLikeReturnTypeHints = true,
        includeInlayEnumMemberValueHints = true,
      }
    },
    javascript = {
      inlayHints = {
        includeInlayParameterNameHints = 'all',
        includeInlayParameterNameHintsWhenArgumentMatchesName = false,
        includeInlayFunctionParameterTypeHints = true,
        includeInlayVariableTypeHints = true,
        includeInlayVariableTypeHintsWhenTypeMatchesName = false,
        includeInlayPropertyDeclarationTypeHints = true,
        includeInlayFunctionLikeReturnTypeHints = true,
        includeInlayEnumMemberValueHints = true,
      }
    }
  }
})

You might want to set VariableTypeHints to false if it's too noisy.

Clangd

If you're on a version earlier than 15.0.0, you must use an older commit.

See https://clangd.llvm.org/extensions#inlay-hints and https://clangd.llvm.org/config#inlayhints. If using p00f/clangd_extensions.nvim, set autoSetHints = false.

Golang

See https://github.com/golang/tools/blob/master/gopls/doc/inlayHints.md. If you're using ray-x/go.nvim, set lsp_inlay_hints = { enable = false }.

Example
"gopls": {
  "hints": {
    "assignVariableTypes": true,
    "compositeLiteralFields": true,
    "constantValues": true,
    "functionTypeParameters": true,
    "parameterNames": true,
    "rangeVariableTypes": true
  }
}

Java (jdtls)

Available settings: https://github.com/redhat-developer/vscode-java/blob/master/package.json#L892-L916.

  • Server doesn't set inlayHintProvider capability.
  • Server doesn't specify InlayHintKind and its options refer only to parameters.

Builtin workaround: attach regardless and treat unspecified hints as Parameter.

Other

If a server implements inlay hints on a different endpoint/method (not textDocument/inlayHint), raise an issue with the request/response details to check the possibility of a workaround.

Available commands:

toggle

Enable/disable the plugin globally.

require('lsp-inlayhints').toggle()

reset

Clears all inlay hints in the current buffer.

require('lsp-inlayhints').reset()

Known issues

InlayHints (extmarks) get pushed to the line below when commenting lines. See: #2 (comment).
