Question about LSP usage

DaTaha · 2022-12-10 21:24
I am using LSP from within Doom Emacs with evil enabled. 1. Code actions: When there is only one available code action, `lsp-execute-code-action` automatically executes the action without asking me to confirm first, this is problematic since often I just want to see what code actions are available on a line, without necessarily executing them. What is the workaround for this? 2. The intellisense messages on the right side of the screen are often truncated due to a lack of space on my screen. How can I view the entire message when this is the case? Surely there's a better way than just `flycheck-list-errors` since I have to actually visually search where in the list the error/warning corresponding to my current line is. Add further to this fact the ID columns on that interface is often truncated https://preview.redd.it/vg876qu8055a1.png?width=943&format=png&auto=webp&s=38676201480eb5e8cad654d87ee999683e9bbc10 (And tangentially related: why does `flycheck-list-errors` provide a different error list than `consult-lsp-diagnostics`? I have an example of this which I can produce upon demand.) ​ 3. When LSP shows some information about what I'm typing in the minibuffer, how can I choose to view that information in full? See the image below. You can even see the "1/3" page label. How do I access those pages? If I press `ESC` so I can press `K`, pressing `ESC` gets rid of the message in the minibuffer and then attempting to press `K` will simply yield `LSP :: No content at point.` ​ https://preview.redd.it/q1e8so0c055a1.png?width=629&format=png&auto=webp&s=6a0b2cc1d971ae4bba8c30af8f29834e897d17b6 4. `next-error` / `flycheck-next-error` does not let you navigate to warnings (despite warnings appearing in the flycheck 'error' list). Is there a command that also lets me navigate to the next/previous warning? ​ 5. Are there any other LSP usage tips I should know about?

1. lsp-auto-execute-action 2. I usually hover the error and then check it in messages buffer. Not sure if this will work with your/default flycheck settings > (And tangentially related: why does flycheck-list-errors provide a different error list than consult-lsp-diagnostics? I have an example of this which I can produce upon demand.) Consult method works on global list, flycheck works on buffer list. This is limitation of flycheck 3. M-n/M-p 4. Not sure about that one, it works fine on my side. 5. Most likely yes.

About (2). Compare these two screenshots:\`consult-lsp-diagnostics\`: [https://i.imgur.com/gPHqVhM.png](https://i.imgur.com/gPHqVhM.png)\`flycheck-list-errors\`: [https://i.imgur.com/ZXHgf6p.png](https://i.imgur.com/ZXHgf6p.png) These screenshots are from the same buffer. And moreover, the consult method is producing the shorter list of the two. About (3). Now I know how to navigate forwards and backwards between pages. But what do I do when the page I want to read is too big to be displayed inside the mininbuffer and is truncated. It is not displayed inside the \*Messages\* buffer.
