nimforum mirror - Error installing nimlsp, and getting the neovim plugin to work

samsamros (orginal) [2021-12-27T18:12:26+01:00] view original

I recently did a clean OS install on my computer. I'm using Parrot OS, and tried installing the neovim autocomplete plugin: https://dev.to/moinmoti/nim-on-neovim-24d3

This had worked on my previous setup. However, now, when I try to install nimlsp I keep on getting this error:

nimble install nimlsp

I've tried manually importing nimsuggest.nim, setting paths, etc. None have worked to get the autocomplete working. I've tried using the VScodium, but autocomplete isn't good and opens many nimsuggest sessions that eventually clog up my ram (32 gb). When I set my path directly several issues arose from that, libraries that didn't exist, etc. Autocomplete and suggestions were the best out there when it came to this, but now I don't get real suggestions (one of the many issues with the VScodium plugin). I know this could be related to my config, so if anyone else has succesfully been able to get this working, I would greatly appreciate if you could guide me in the right direction.

Happy holidays to those celebrating.
