Integration with nvim-cmp

[xulongwu4]

Hi, lovely plugin. Do you support integration with nvim-cmp just like nvim-autopairs does?

Yes, use require'ultimate-autopair.maps.cr'.cmpnewline() like so:

cmp.mapping(function()
    if cmp.get_active_entry() then
        cmp.confirm()
    else
        require'ultimate-autopair.maps.cr'.cmpnewline()
    end
end)

Hi again, thanks for the help! I might have missed something, but I couldn't make it work with your code snippet. In case my request didn't go through: I was asking whether it is possible to add a pair of parenthesis to a cmp completion item which is a function. This was accomplishable by nvim-autopairs as shown in the link I provided above. I am not good at reading lua code or nvim apis, but I didn't see the part related to check whether the completion item is a function and adding the parenthesis etc. in the cmpnewline function. I would appreciate your help again!

This is a gif showing the effect that I want to achieve:

Currently that specific feature is not possible.
I may decide to add the feature in the future.

This feature is indeed very useful, looking forward to it 😄

Sorry, currently don't find the resources, but doesn't nvim-cmp support inserting parenthesis after the completion by itself?

[GersiD]

If it does then I can't figure out how to. I just switched from LazyVim to Kickstart and I tried getting the function completion to work like lazy had.and lazy doesn't use the cmp:on_event trick but I have no idea how it gets function completion to work otherwise.

Okay, it seems like this is a feature of the LSP completion where some servers provide this feature by using snippets. Sorry.

[GersiD]

Yes sir. This is the last reason I still use nvim-autopairs.

Hello, I'm still looking forward to this useful feature

Very wholesome, very useful feature. In the meantime try and configure the LSP you use to send snippets for completion. This varies per LSP. That's how I got around it so far. Clangd, jdtls, luals, and pyright all support it. So thats all I need for now.
