Tern for Vim, a promising library that does actual code introspection to get correct autocomplete.
UltiSnips along with UltiSnips-Snippets which are different than the above snippets.

SnipMate, a basic tag completion plugin, along with snippets, and figure out on your own how to add snippets, as it's a bit tricky. vimrc setup, and NeoSnippet for snippet completion.Ī monster combination of exuberant-ctags and DoctorJS (a Mozilla project that has been dead for a year), TagBar and a home-grown thingy to extract completion from the tag files. NeoComplCache which is keyword completion (how it's different from Vim's built in completion is not specified), a complex. SuperTab which lets you press Tab to trigger Vim's built in completion. You can :echo &omnifunc in a file to see if you already have Omnicompletion set up by Vim in your file of choice.ĪutoComplPop for automatically opening the above Omnicompletion menu on typing. The pattern-complete plugin can be mildly useful if you don't search with /\v.īuilt in Vim " Omnicompletion" triggered by Ctrl- x, Ctrl- o (that's what Vim authors want you to type every time) along with a bunch of language specific plugins, if they exist. You probably know Ctrl- x Ctrl- f, which will auto-complete a file name including path, relative to the current :pwd.

Two useful keyboard shortcuts are Ctrl- n, which will auto-complete a word based only on the current buffers you have open (no code introspection), and Ctrl- x Ctrl- l which will autocomplete a full line of code if you want to duplicate one. These are your options, of which I've tried all: If you're looking to autocomplete code, you should use a code editor, not a text editor. The best a text editor can do is snippets and completing same words/lines/etc it knows about. And all of the ones that try to do this, like Tern For Vim, are indeed nightmares to use. It's baked into the history of the Vim ecosystem not to do this. Consider that Vim couldn't do asynchronous operations until Vim 8 was released in 2016, so trying to run any sort of code introspection software in a Vim plugin would be a nightmare. Autocompletion requires introspecting your source code and analyzing the AST. Vim fundamentally can't "autocomplete" code accurately. Code editors, IDES, are tools like Jetbrains suite of tools, Visual Studio Code, Eclipse, etc. The search continues, but this is all the research I've done over the course of several years.įirst of all, you must understand Vim is a text editor, not a code editor. This is an old question, but I keep coming back to it every now and then with a glimmer of fading hope, thinking that one day I'll find the right combination of plugins to give me perfect autocompletion in Vim.
