ddc.vim

Dark deno-powered completion framework for neovim/Vim8

If you don't want to configure plugins, you don't have to use the plugin. It does not work with zero configuration. You can use other plugins.

Please read help for details.

Ddc is the abbreviation of "dark deno-powered completion". It provides an extensible and asynchronous completion framework for neovim/Vim8.

Note: I have created Japanese article for ddc.vim. After that I have created the next article Japanese article for both ddc.vim and pum.vim recently. You can read them by translation service.

The development is supported by github sponsors. Thank you!

Introduction

I have chosen denops.vim framework to create new plugin. Because denops.vim is better than neovim Python interface.

• Easy to setup
• Minimal dependency
• Stability
• neovim/Vim8 compatibility
• Speed
• Library
• Easy to hack

Install

Note: Ddc.vim requires Neovim (0.6.0+ and of course, latest is recommended) or Vim 8.2.0662. See requirements if you aren't sure whether you have this.

For vim-plug

call plug#begin()

Plug 'Shougo/ddc.vim'
Plug 'vim-denops/denops.vim'

" Install your sources
"Plug 'Shougo/ddc-around'

" Install your filters
"Plug 'Shougo/ddc-matcher_head'
"Plug 'Shougo/ddc-sorter_rank'

call plug#end()

For dein.vim

call dein#begin()

call dein#add('Shougo/ddc.vim')
call dein#add('vim-denops/denops.vim')

" Install your sources
"call dein#add('Shougo/ddc-around')

" Install your filters
"call dein#add('Shougo/ddc-matcher_head')
"call dein#add('Shougo/ddc-sorter_rank')

call dein#end()

Note: Ddc.vim does not include any sources and filters. You must install them you want manually. You can search ddc plugins(sources and filters) from here.

Requirements

Ddc.vim requires both Deno and denops.vim.
