* Split helix_core::find_root and helix_loader::find_local_config_dirs
The documentation of find_root described the following priority for
detecting a project root:
- Top-most folder containing a root marker in current git repository
- Git repository root if no marker detected
- Top-most folder containing a root marker if not git repository detected
- Current working directory as fallback
The commit contained in https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/pull/1249
extracted and changed the implementation of find_root in find_root_impl,
actually reversing its result order (since that is the order that made
sense for the local configuration merge, from innermost to outermost
ancestors).
Since the two uses of find_root_impl have different requirements (and
it's not a matter of reversing the order of results since, e.g., the top
repository dir should be used by find_root only if there's not marker in
other dirs), this PR splits the two implementations in two different
specialized functions.
In doing so, find_root_impl is removed and the implementation is moved
back in find_root, moving it closer to the documented behaviour thus
making it easier to verify it's actually correct
* helix-core: remove Option from find_root return type
It always returns some result, so Option is not needed
* Improve keymap errors from command typos
Currently, opening helix with a config containing a bad command mapping
fails with a cryptic error. For example, say we have a config (bad.toml)
with a command name that doesn't exist:
[keys.normal]
b = "buffer_close" # should be ":buffer-close"
When we `hx -c bad.toml`, we get...
> Bad config: data did not match any variant of untagged enum KeyTrie for key `keys.normal` at line 1 column 1
> Press <ENTER> to continue with default config
This is because of the way that Serde tries to deserialize untagged
enums such as `helix_term::keymap::KeyTrie`. From the Serde docs[^1]:
> Serde will try to match the data against each variant in order and the
> first one that deserializes successfully is the one returned.
`MappableCommand::deserialize` fails (returns an Err variant) when a
command does not exist. Serde interprets this as the `KeyTrie::Leaf`
variant failing to match and declares that the input data doesn't
"match any variant of untagged enum KeyTrie."
Luckily the variants of KeyTrie are orthogonal in structure: we can tell
them apart by the type hints from a `serde:🇩🇪:Visitor`. This change
uses a custom Deserialize implementation along with a Visitor that
discerns which variant of the KeyTrie applies. With this change, the
above failure becomes:
> Bad config: No command named 'buffer_close' for key `keys.normal.b` at line 2 column 5
> Press <ENTER> to continue with default config
We also provide more explicit information about the expectations on
the field. A config with an unexpected type produces a message with
that information and the expectation:
[keys.normal]
b = 1
> Bad config: invalid type: integer `1`, expected a command, list of commands, or sub-keymap for key `keys.normal.b` at line 2 column 5
> Press <ENTER> to continue with default config

* Add command line parameter to specify log file
I had the logs of my debug helix mixed in with the logs from the
production helix.
Add a `--log` command line argument to redirect any logs to other
files, making my debugging easier :-)
* Update completion files with `--log` argument
The tutor file is loaded as .txt which can potentially spawn a
language server. Then the path is unset, but the LS remains active.
This can cause panics since updates are now submitted for a doc
with no path.
As a quick workaround we remove the extension which should avoid
detection.
Fixes#3730
* Don't change config to default when refreshing invalid config
* Propely handle theme errors with config-reload
* Extract refresh theme into seperate function
Helix is first and foremost a modal editor. Willingness to support non-modal
editing is there, but it is not one that should be encouraged with the default
settings. There are an increasing number of users who are stumbling because
they are trying to use Helix as a non-modal editor, so this is an effort to
encourage new users to stop and take notice that Helix has a different paradigm
than VSCode, Sublime, etc. Users can still add these bindings back to their own
configs if they wish.
`extend_line_above` (and `extend_line` when facing backwards) skip
a line when the current range does not fully cover a line.
Before this change:
foo
b#[|a]#r
baz
With `extend_line_above` or `extend_line` selected the line above.
#[|foo
bar]#
baz
Which is inconsistent with `extend_line_below`. This commit changes
the behavior to select the current line when it is not already
selected.
foo
#[|bar]#
baz
Then further calls of `extend_line_above` extend the selection up
line-wise.
* fix: Recalculate completion when going through prompt history
* Update completion when the prompt line is changed
It should not be possible to update the line without also updating the
completion since the completion holds an index into the line.
* Fix Prompt::with_line recalculate completion
with_line was the last function where recalculate completion had to be
done manually. This function now also recalculates the completion so
that it's impossible to forget.
* Exit selection when recalculating completion
Keeping the selection index when the completion has been recalculated
doesn't make sense. This clears the selection automatically, removing
most needs to manually clear it.
* Remove &mut on save_filter

It was starting to diverge as the normal exit code was restoring the prompt but the panic code
wasn't, and the panic code was disabling bracketed paste but the normal code wasn't.
This changes the panic path slightly in that we won't disable raw mode if exiting alternate screen
and disabling bracketed paste fails. If that happens, things are so busted I don't think it matters
anyway.
Fixes a panic with a config like:
[keys.normal.space]
x = [":buffer-close"]
by bailing out of the command-execution handling if the document
doesn't exist after handling a command.
This refactor changes the overall structure of the goto_ts_object_impl
command without removing any functionality from its behavior. The
refactored motion:
* acts on all selections instead of reducing to one selection
* may be repeated with the `repeat_last_motion` (A-.) command
* informs the user when the syntax-tree is not accessible in the current buffer
This is invalid according to the [LSP spec]:
> In addition the server is not allowed to send any requests
> or notifications to the client until it has responded with an
> InitializeResult, with the exception that during the initialize
> request the server is allowed to send the notifications
> window/showMessage, window/logMessage and telemetry/event as well
> as the window/showMessageRequest request to the client.
So we should discard the message when the language server is not
yet initialized. This can happen if the server sends
textDocument/publishDiagnostics before responding to the initialize
request. clojure-lsp appears to exhibit this behavior in the wild.
[LSP Spec]: https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/lsp/3.17/specification/#initialize
This change adds documents to the view's document history Vec.
(This is used by `ga` for example to access the last buffer.)
Previously, a sequence like so would have confusing behavior:
1. Open file A: any document with an active language server
2. Find some definition that lives in another file - file B - with `gd`
3. Jump back in the jumplist with `C-o` to file A
4. Use `ga` intending to switch back to file B
The behavior prior to this change was that `ga` would switch to file
A: you could not use `ga` to switch to file B.
When changing focus, the lookup with `current!` may change the
view and end up executing mode transition hooks on the newly
focused view. We should use the same view and document to execute
mode transition hooks so that switching away from a view triggers
history save points.
* Derive Document language name from `languages.toml` `name` key
This changes switches from deriving the language name from the
`languages.toml` `scope` key to `name` (`language_id` in the
`LanguageConfiguration` type). For the most part it works to derive the
language name from scope by chopping off `source.` or `rsplit_once` on
`.` but for some languages we have now like html (`text.html.basic`),
it doesn't. This also should be a more accurate fallback for the
`language_id` method which is used in LSP and currently uses the
`rsplit_once` strategy.
Here we expose the language's name as `language_name` on `Document` and
replace ad-hoc calculations of the language name with the new method.
This is most impactful for the `file-type` statusline element which is
using `language_id`.
* Use `Document::language_name` for the `file-type` statusline element
The `file-type` indicator element in the statusline was using
`Document::language_id` which is meant to be used to for telling
Language Servers what language we're using. That works for languages
with `language-server` configurations in `languages.toml` but shows
text otherwise. The new `Document::language_name` method from the
parent commit is a more accurate way to determine the language.

* Update description of `m` textobject to its actual functionality
Sometime recently the functionality of `m` was changed to match the
nearest pair to the cursor, rather than the former functionality of
matching the pair only if the cursor was on one of the brace characters
directly.
* Rename surround methods to reflect that they work on pairs
The current naming suggests that they may work generally on any
textobject, whereas their implementation really focuses on pairs.
* Change description of m textobject to match actual functionality
The current implementation of `m` no longer merely looks at the pair
character the cursor is on, but actually will search for the pair
(defined in helix-core/src/surround.rs) that encloses the cursor, and
not the entire selection.

These are read-line-like bindings which we'd like to minimize in
insert mode in general.
In particular these two are troublesome if you have a low
`editor.idle-timeout` config and are using LSP completions: the
behavior of C-n/C-p switches from moving down/up lines to moving
down/up the completion menu, so if you hit C-n too quickly
expecting to be in the completion menu, you'll end up moving down
a line instead. Using C-p moves you back up the line but doesn't
re-trigger the completion menu. This kind of timing related change
to behavior isn't realistically that big of a deal but it can be
annoying.
* Fix tab highlight when tab is partially visible
* Make it style based, and not truncation based
Dealing with truncating is a mess, especially when it comes to wide

Before the indent guides on top of whitespace inherited the theme
from them. Now they do not.
* Fix dark_plus theme indent_guides
* Use whitespace style as fallback for indent-guide
* Fix dark_plus theme indent_guides
* Move indent_guide style patching out of loop
* Avoid setting stdin handle when not necessary
Avoid setting the stdin handle in `shell_impl` when the input argument
is None.
This permits to run commands with no stdin with :sh
* refactoring to avoid code duplication
* making clippy happy
* Process variable name fix
Indent style may change when choosing a language with `:set-language`.
Line-endings most likely will not change, but `:set-language` should
have a similar effect as reloading a file (`:reload`), plus the two
are currently grouped in the implementation and line-ending detection
is not particularly expensive.

The language server sends a char offset range within the
signature help label text to highlight as the current parameter,
but helix uses byte offset ranges for rendering highlights. This
was brought up in the [review of the original signature help PR][1],
but the ranges were being highlighted correctly, and there were no
out of bound or indexing panics. Turns out rust-analyzer was
[incorrectly sending byte offsets] instead of char offsets and this
made it seem like all was well and good with offsets in helix during
initial testing.

Ctrl-based shortcuts are common in numerous applications.
This change:

- Removes Alt-Left and Alt-Right in prompt, picker, …
- Adds Alt-Delete in insert mode for forward word deletion
In some terminals, Alt-Backspace might not work because it is ambigous.

This opens the way for merging the menu and picker code in the
future, since a picker is essentially a menu + prompt. More
excitingly, this change will also allow aligning items in the
picker, which would be useful (for example) in the command palette
for aligning the descriptions to the left and the keybinds to
the right in two separate columns.
The item formatting of each picker has been kept as is, even though
there is room for improvement now that we can format the data into
columns, since that is better tackled in a separate PR.

* Sort themes by score & then name
Previously the themes were appearing unordered after typing ':theme '.
This sorts them first by fuzzy score and then by name so that they
generally appear in a more ordered fashion in the initial list.
The sort by name does not really pay off when there is a score so an
alternative approach would be to sort by name if there is string to
fuzzy match against and otherwise sort by score.
I've lowercased the names as that avoids lower case & upper case letters
being sorted into separate groups. There might be a preferable approach
to that though.
* Sort language & files by score then name
And change to use sort_unstable_by instead of sort_unstable_by_key as it
allows us to avoid some allocations.
I don't fully understand the flow of the 'filename_impl' function but
this seems to deliver the desired results.

* Add single width left margin for completion popup
* Clear with ui.menu style before rendering menu
When rendering a completion popup, the popup component will clear
the area with ui.popup and then the menu component would draw over
it using a table component. We remove the left edge of the area
before passing it to the table component (so that it will be left
as padding), and the table component uses ui.menu as the style.
If ui.menu and ui.popup are different the left edge of the popup
will look different from the rest of the popup. We avoid this by
clearing the whole area with ui.menu in Menu::render
* check selection's visible width when copying on mouse click
Mouse-click-up copies the selection produced by dragging. The event
is ignored if the selection has a width of 1 though so you don't
copy when clicking rather than dragging. The current check copies
text when it has a visible width of 1 but is actually multiple
characters in the rope like a CRLF line-ending. With this change
we check the unicode width of the character(s) in the selection
rather than the range length, so clicking on a CRLF line-ending
does not copy.
* use range.fragment to simplify getting the primary selection width
* redetect indent and line endings after language server replaces document
* removes nested if
* always redetect indent and line endings after format
This reverts commit 764d14f55894dc7213e48022dfa0f91829b8ef59.
The scrollbar length used to increase with more entries in the menu,
which was counter-intuitive to how scrollbars worked in most
applications. Turns out there was a typo in the floor division
implementation :)
The command palette previously used + as a delimiter for denoting
a single key in a key sequence, (like C+w). This was at odds with
how the statusline displayed them with pending keys (like <C-w>).
This patch changes the palette formatting to the statusline formatting

* Default rulers color to red
Currently if the theme a user is using doesn't have `ui.virtual.rulers`
set and they set up a ruler it just fails silently making it really hard
to figure out what went wrong. Did they set incorrectly set the ruler?
Are they using an outdated version of Helix that doesn't support rulers?
This happened to me today, I even switched to the default theme with
the assumption that maybe my theme just doesn't have the rulers setup
properly and it still didn't work.
Not sure if this is a good idea or not, feel free to suggest better
alternatives!
