Using completion in nvim requires '*' to display all matches.

[pignatenko]

Using LanguageClient-neovim I am required to write something like:

a.*

Then use omnicompletion to get a full list of properties. However this is inconsistent because if I use a built in class I can write:

Time.

Then use omnicompletion to get a full list of properties. The commands being sent to the server are exactly the same though!

Part of the problem might be that LanguageClient-neovim does not support incremental sync for textDocument/didChange methods (https://github.com/autozimu/LanguageClient-neovim/issues/551).

When the server parses a changed file, it uses incremental edits to determine changes that should be ignored due to syntax errors. This includes many (but not all) instances of trailing periods.

I've started working on improved handling of unparseable updates from clients that send full text instead of incremental changes.

I don't normally use nvim, so there may be other issues I don't know about.

This is quite unfortunate because I believe that triggering completion after writing something. is the most typical use case :thinking:

This should be fixed with the addition of diff-lcs to handle non-incremental syncs. If problems persist, please feel free to open a new issue.
