intero.nvim

Do you use Neovim to work on Haskell code? Do you want really, really fast autocompletion and stuff? Do you already use GHCi a lot?

Well, this project is for you.

So,

• GHCi is the Haskell REPL. It has a :complete command.
• Intero is a fork of GHCi that adds :uses, :loc-at, :type-at.
• My fork of intero adds a MessagePack RPC server that exposes those commands!
• This plugin connects to that server using Neovim's built-in MessagePack RPC client.

As a result, you get very robust and lightning fast omni-completion, go-to-definition, go-to-uses, type-of-expression.

Installation

1. Clone https://github.com/myfreeweb/intero.git with git and install with stack install
2. Install this plugin (https://github.com/myfreeweb/intero.nvim.git) with your favorite Vim package manager
3. Run the REPL at your project root with stack ghci --with-ghc intero
4. Configure your Neovim!

Note for Linux users: make sure you are using the openbsd netcat variant, which supports connecting to UNIX sockets. For Arch Linux use the openbsd-netcat package.

Example ftplugin/haskell.vim:

setlocal omnifunc=intero#omnifunc

vnoremap <buffer> <Leader>G :InteroGoto<CR>
vnoremap <buffer> <Leader>T :InteroType<CR>
vnoremap <buffer> <Leader>U :InteroUses<CR>
nnoremap <buffer> <Leader>m :call intero#ensurebufmodule()<CR>:call VimuxSendText(":m + ".b:intero_module."\n:reload\n")<CR>

(The last line uses Vimux to tell Intero to load the current module.)
