On #Neovim, if a language server executable is not available when a buffer tries to attach to it, what would be the simplest way to retry, without closing and reopen neither the buffer nor the editor? I have an user event that will notify when it’s ready

Sure, you can install a huge Vim plugin to help you format Markdown tables. Or, if you're like me and would like to keep your list of plugins short, and have #Pandoc installed anyway (because it rocks), you can simply do

setlocal formatprg=pandoc\ --from\ gfm\ --to\ gfm

in your ftplugin/markdown.vim, and then simply hit

gqip

("format interior of current paragraph") to reformat the messy table you're currently editing.

Vimistes de #Grenoble, oyez ! Ce lundi 21/07, donc totalement à l’arrache (comme il se doit), aura lieu un #tupperVim à la @TurbineCoop.

On va parler de #Vim, #Neovim, #CLI, et toutes ces sortes de choses. Et possiblement du #Quacken, vite fait.

Idéalement, inscrivez-vous sur le lien Meetup, ça fera plaisir à l’inusable Julio ! Mais vous pouvez aussi vous pointer à l’arrache, vous serez toujours bienvenu·e.

Grenoble: TupperVim, Le lundi 21 juillet 2025 de 19h00 à 23h00. https://www.agendadulibre.org/events/32872 #tuppervim #vim #atelier #initiation #séance #neovim #libre #réunion

This is pretty swank :) #wayland support now works great in Manjaro Linux on #wsl2 for #windows11

If nothing else I really dig having solid clipboard support for #neovim in WSL2 :)

This small Neovim plugin shows you column name hints when writing SQL insert queries: https://github.com/pmouraguedes/sql-ghosty.nvim

Neovim now has a built-in plugin manager that fetches plugins using git: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/blob/cbfc3d1cdc199ce65368a2f40dc4b1ddc4331714/runtime/doc/lua.txt#L2529

Try it out, if you'd like to reduce your external dependencies.

I just published an in-depth post about my configuration of Neovim. It covers every setting, plugin, and custom keymap I use for a good development experience.

Yo Dawg I heard you like syntax highlighing

https://samifayoumi.ca/blog/002_inline-sql-syntax-highlighting/

I made a small NeoVim Plugin and custom Tree-Sitter parser to enhance the journalling experience with Fern Log files. It supports various syntax and entry highlights, header folds, and a few keybindings for toggling statuses and folds quickly (for now).

Blog post introducing it: https://bugwhisperer.dev/blog/fern-neovim-plugin-treesitter-parser/
Code repo: https://github.com/bugwhisperer418/fern.nvim

Excited to keep improving it! ​​ I welcome any feedback or suggestions. Thank yooou!!

A call for help from anyone who uses neovim! I've been trying to learn my way around it (Mostly for curiosity's sake), but am struggling. In sublime or vscode (and many more, but there are the ones I've used), you can run a task or build command with a keyboard shortcut. Is there a neovim extension that offers a similar capabillity?

Bonus points if I can customize this build command in the local project folder, as well as having defaults per language.

Edit: I have a :term open at the bottom of my screen, and having it run down there would be awesome (like in VSCode). Sublime's implementation is kinda whack lol.

My setup so far is kickstart.nvim, with a couple more extensions from mini.nvim enabled like sessions, startup, comment, etc...

Created a Neovim configuration for writing Ansible playbooks/roles/collections. With linting, auto-completion, highlighting of blocks, indentation, git integration and nice UI.

If someone is interested, I put it on my Codeberg here: https://codeberg.org/Larvitz/nvim-ansible together with a README.md, that explains keybindings, installation instructions etc.

It's also good for Python software development and contains the LSP definitions for that as well. But the primary goal, was to create an Ansible development environment with all bells and whistles :-)
