govim

Breaking changes

govim now uses config functions to control behaviour. For example:

let g:govim_format_on_save="goimports"

becomes:

call govim#config#Set("FormatOnSave", "goimports")

See the Config go doc for the valid keys and values. The wiki has been updated to reflect this change.

Features/bug fixes

• If you have Vim/Gvim >= 8.1.1419 then you will send incremental buffer updates to gopls instead of entire file contents. This should improve general responsiveness
• Various gopls fixes
• Fix where :w after an undo would fail
• Fix where quickfix window would be incorrectly populated on occasions (#261)

• deps: golang.org/x/tools v0.0.0-20190513233021-7d589f28aaf4 (#229)
• cmd/govim: fix completion (#232)

Changes

• Add GOVIMGoImports and GOVIMGoFmt commands; currently only work on the entire file
• Various gopls fixes
• Add CommandQuickfixDiagnostics command, to manually populate quickfix window with current gopls diagnostics
• Add g:govim_quickfix_auto_diagnotics_disable variable to control whether quickfix window is automatically populated with gopls diagnostics; see https://godoc.org/github.com/myitcv/govim/cmd/govim/config for more details

BREAKING CHANGES

A small configuration-related breaking change has been made. Default values of updatetime and balloondelay were previous set in the govim plugin. These have now been moved to the minimal.vimrc as suggested settings:

https://github.com/myitcv/govim/blob/be5186373d0b6831936cab56b729ca878020c2ae/cmd/govim/config/minimal.vimrc#L25-L33

Bug fixes:

• cmd/govim: enforce the minimum Vim version requirement
• cmd/govim: ensure that we correctly add a newline to end of file

This release is principally to make available https://github.com/myitcv/govim/pull/189, a temporary govim-based solution to file watching, whilst we await an official solution via https://github.com/golang/go/issues/31553.

This will be of particular interest if you use go generate or similar, where file changes outside of the editor need to be communicated to gopls.

Bug fixes:

• Upgrade golang.org/x/tools to fix bug: internal/span: fix another off-by-one in ToUTF16Column

Important points to note:

• #179, #180, #182 move govim to use ftplugin for the setting of default mappings. This adds a requirement to the minimal .vimrc. See the wiki for more details

Other version highlights:

• Various upgrades to golang.org/x/tools, principally to fix panics in calls to span.ToUTF16Column
• cmd/govim: explicitly use bufname instead of (#171)
