==============================================================================
INTRODUCTION *deoplete-introduction*
*deoplete* is the abbreviation of "dark powered neo-completion". It
provides asynchronous keyword completion system in the
current buffer.
Note: deoplete may consume more memory than other plugins do.
Improvements in deoplete in comparison to |neocomplete|:
1. Real asynchronous completion behavior like |YouCompleteMe| by default.
2. Uses Python3 to implement sources.
3. Removes legacy interface.
4. Requires |+python3|.
==============================================================================
INSTALL *deoplete-install*
Note: deoplete requires Neovim(0.2.0+) or Vim8(latest is recommended) with
Python3 and |+timers| enabled.
Please install nvim-yarp plugin for Vim8.
https://github.com/roxma/nvim-yarp
Please install vim-hug-neovim-rpc plugin for Vim8.
https://github.com/roxma/vim-hug-neovim-rpc
1. Extract the files and put them in your Neovim or .vim directory
(usually `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim/`).
2. Call |deoplete#enable()| or set "let g:deoplete#enable_at_startup = 1" in
your `init.vim`
3. Execute the ":UpdateRemotePlugins" if Neovim.
If ":echo has('python3')" returns `1`, then you're done; otherwise, see below.
You can enable Python3 interface with pip: >
pip3 install neovim
Note: deoplete needs neovim-python ver.0.2.4+.
You need update neovim-python module.
>
pip3 install --upgrade neovim
<
If you want to read for Neovim-python/python3 interface install documentation,
you should read |provider-python| and the Wiki.
https://github.com/zchee/deoplete-jedi/wiki/Setting-up-Python-for-Neovim
You can check the Python3 installation by using the |:checkhealth| command.
==============================================================================
INTERFACE *deoplete-interface*
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VARIABLES *deoplete-variables*
*g:deoplete#enable_at_startup*
g:deoplete#enable_at_startup
Deoplete gets started automatically when Neovim starts if
this value is 1.
With the default value 0, you cannot use deoplete
unless you start it manually.
*g:deoplete#enable_yarp*
g:deoplete#enable_yarp
Use nvim-yarp library instead of neovim remote plugin feature.
Note: nvim-yarp plugin is needed.
https://github.com/roxma/nvim-yarp
Default value: 0
*g:deoplete#complete_method*
g:deoplete#complete_method
If it is "complete", deoplete use |complete()|.
If it is "completefunc", deoplete use |i_CTRL-X_CTRL-U|.
Note: It changes current 'completefunc' value.
If it is "omnifunc", deoplete use |i_CTRL-X_CTRL-O|.
Note: It changes current 'omnifunc' value.
Default value: "complete"
*g:deoplete#enable_ignore_case*
g:deoplete#enable_ignore_case
When deoplete looks for candidate completion, this
variable controls whether deoplete ignores the upper-
and lowercase. If it is 1, deoplete ignores case.
Default value: same with your 'ignorecase' value
*g:deoplete#enable_smart_case*
g:deoplete#enable_smart_case
When a capital letter is included in input, deoplete does
not ignore the upper- and lowercase.
Default value: same with your 'smartcase' value
*g:deoplete#enable_camel_case*
g:deoplete#enable_camel_case
When a capital letter is matched with the uppercase, but a
lower letter is matched with the upper- and lowercase.
Ex: "foB" is matched with "FooBar" not "foobar".
Note: This feature is only available in
|deoplete-filter-matcher_fuzzy| or
|deoplete-filter-matcher_full_fuzzy|.
Default value: 0
*g:deoplete#enable_refresh_always*
g:deoplete#enable_refresh_always
Deoplete refreshes the candidates automatically if this value

Note: It is the deprecated option. You should change
|deoplete-source-attribute-min_pattern_length|.
Default: 2
*g:deoplete#disable_auto_complete*
g:deoplete#disable_auto_complete
It controls whether you invalidate automatic completion. If
it is 1, automatic completion becomes invalid, but can use the
manual completion by |deoplete#manual_complete()|.
Default value: 0
*b:deoplete_disable_auto_complete*
b:deoplete_disable_auto_complete
Buffer local variable of |g:deoplete#disable_auto_complete|.

- `values` consist of either a string containing a single
omnifunc or a list with omnifuncs to be used for each
filetype.
In case there is no omnifunc setting for the current filetype
in the dictionary, deoplete will use the 'omnifunc' setting.

*g:deoplete#tag#cache_limit_size*
g:deoplete#tag#cache_limit_size
It sets file size to make a cache of a file in
tag source. If a tag file is bigger than this size,
deoplete does not make the tag file cache.
Default value: 500000
*g:deoplete#buffer#require_same_filetype*
g:deoplete#buffer#require_same_filetype
If it is zero, deoplete collects keywords from buffers of any
filetype
Default value: 1

==============================================================================
SOURCES *deoplete-sources*
buffer *deoplete-source-buffer*
It collects keywords from current buffer and the current
tabpage windows buffers and the opened buffers which have same
'filetype'.
Note: It does not collect keywords from not loaded buffer.
For example, if you open file by "nvim A B". A is already
loaded, but B is not loaded. So buffer source cannot collect
the keywords in B until you switch to buffer B.
Note: It takes time to get the candidates in the first time if
you want to edit the large files(like Vim 22000 lines eval.c).
rank: 100
member *deoplete-source-member*
It collects members from current buffer.
rank: 100
tag *deoplete-source-tag*
It collects keywords from |ctags| files.
Note: It only supports UTF-8 encoding tag file.
rank: 100
file *deoplete-source-file*
This source collects keywords from local files. Specifically,
it completes file and directory names and paths, e.g.
/usr/lib/share.
rank: 150
omni *deoplete-source-omni*
This source collects keywords from 'omnifunc'.
Note: It is not asynchronous.
rank: 500
dictionary *deoplete-source-dictionary*
This source collects |g:deoplete#keyword_patterns| keywords
from 'dictionary'. Note: it uses buffer-local 'dictionary'
set up.
rank: 100
>
" Examples:
" Sample configuration for dictionary source with multiple
" dictionary files.
setlocal dictionary+=/usr/share/dict/words
setlocal dictionary+=/usr/share/dict/american-english
" Remove this if you'd like to use fuzzy search
call deoplete#custom#source(
\ 'dictionary', 'matchers', ['matcher_head'])
" If dictionary is already sorted, no need to sort it again.
call deoplete#custom#source(
\ 'dictionary', 'sorters', [])
" Do not complete too short words
call deoplete#custom#source(
\ 'dictionary', 'min_pattern_length', 4)
<
around *deoplete-source-around*
This source collects candidates around the cursor, so inside
current buffer only. Plus, it searches keywords in |:changes|
command output. Therefore, this source is about to provide the
words that are in sight or the ones you've just typed somewhere
else.
Legend: You can see where the words came from. Next to the
source mark [~] these suffixes are used:
A - above the cursor
B - below the cursor
C - in changes
rank: 300
==============================================================================

Default sorters: ['sorter_rank'].
You can change it by |deoplete#custom#source()|.
*deoplete-filter-converter_default*
Default converters: ['converter_remove_overlap', 'converter_truncate_abbr',

It is like |deoplete-filter-matcher_full_fuzzy| but faster.
It also sorts the candidates using cpsm.
Note: cpsm plugin build/install is needed in 'runtimepath'.
https://github.com/nixprime/cpsm
Note: You must use Python3 support enabled cpsm. >
$ PY3=ON ./install.sh

==============================================================================
CREATE SOURCE *deoplete-create-source*
To create source, you should read default sources implementation in
rplugin/python3/deoplete/source/*.py.
The files are automatically loaded and deoplete creates new Source class
object.
Source class must extend Base class in ".base".
Note: The sources must be created by Python3 language.
Note: If you call Vim functions in your source, it is not asynchronous.

*deoplete-source-attribute-max_menu_width*
max_menu_width
(Integer) (Optional)
If the candidate menu length exceeds the length it will be cut
down.
It it is less than or equal 0, it will be disabled.
If you omit it, it is set |g:deoplete#max_menu_width| value.
*deoplete-source-attribute-input_pattern*
input_pattern
(String) (Optional)
If it is matched, deoplete ignores
|deoplete-source-attribute-min_pattern_length|.
It is useful for omni function sources.
Note: If the source set the attribute, it must define
|deoplete-source-attribute-get_complete_position| attribute.
Note: It is Python3 regexp.
If you omit it, this feature is ignored.
*deoplete-source-attribute-is_bytepos*
is_bytepos
(Bool) (Optional)
If it is True,
|deoplete-source-attribute-get_complete_position|
returns byteposition instead of character position.
The default is False.
It is useful for Vim script to create sources.
Because Vim script string uses byte position. Python string
uses character position.
*deoplete-source-attribute-is_silent*
is_silent
(Bool) (Optional)
If it is True, the source messages are disabled.
*deoplete-source-attribute-is_volatile*
is_volatile
(Bool) (Optional)
If it is True, the source depends on the user input. It means
that if this flag is set to False, deoplete will cache
gather_candidates results and will not call gather_candidates
on each input change. Only on_post_filter method will be
called on each input change (if implemented).
Default value: False
*deoplete-source-attribute-is_debug_enabled*
is_debug_enabled
(Bool) (Optional)
If it is True, the debug log feature is enabled in the source.
*deoplete-source-attribute-matchers*
matchers (List[str]) (Optional)
Source default matchers list.
If you omit it, |deoplete-filter-matcher_default| is used.
*deoplete-source-attribute-sorters*
sorters (List[str]) (Optional)
Source default sorters list.
If you omit it, |deoplete-filter-sorter_default| is
used.
*deoplete-source-attribute-converters*
converters (List[str]) (Optional)
Source default converters list.
If you omit it, |deoplete-filter-converter_default| is used.
*deoplete-source-attribute-disabled_syntaxes*
disabled_syntaxes
(List[str]) (Optional)
Source disabled syntaxes list.
If you omit it, this feature is ignored.
*deoplete-source-attribute-events*
events (List[str]) (Optional)
List of events for which |deoplete-source-attribute-on_event|
should get called.
It defaults to `None`, which means that `on_event` gets
called for all events.
*deoplete-source-attribute-get_complete_position*
get_complete_position
(Function) (Optional)
It is called to get complete position.
It takes {self} and {context} as its parameter and returns
complete position in current line.
Here, {context} is the context information when the source is
called(|deoplete-notation-{context}|).
If you omit it, deoplete will use the position using
|g:deoplete#keyword_patterns|.
Note: |deoplete-source-attribute-is_bytepos| is True, it must
return byte position.
*deoplete-source-attribute-gather_candidates*
gather_candidates
(Function) (Required)
It is called to gather candidates.
It takes {self} and {context} as its parameter and returns a
list of {candidate}.
If the error is occurred, it must return None.
{candidate} must be String or Dictionary contains
|deoplete-candidate-attributes|.
Here, {context} is the context information when the source is
called(|deoplete-notation-{context}|).
Note: The source must not filter the candidates by user input.
It is |deoplete-filters| work. If the source filter the
candidates, user cannot filter the candidates by fuzzy match.
*deoplete-source-attribute-on_post_filter*
on_post_filter
(Function) (Optional)
It is called after the candidates are filtered.
It takes {self} and {context} as its parameter and returns a
list of {candidate}.
*deoplete-source-attribute-on_event*
on_event (Function) (Optional)
Called for |InsertEnter|, |BufWritePost|, |DirChanged|
autocommands, through |deoplete#send_event()|, and when
deoplete gets initialized ("Init" event).
It is useful to make cache.
It takes {self} and {context} as its parameter.
" Examples:
def on_event(self, context):
if context['event'] == 'Init':
pass
elif context['event'] == 'BufWritePost':
# BufWritePost
pass
else:
pass
*deoplete-source-attribute-on_init*
on_init (Function) (Optional)
It will be called before the source attribute is called.
It takes {self} and {context} as its parameter.
It should be used to initialize the internal variables.
*deoplete-source-attribute-__*
__{name} (Unspecified) (Optional)
Additional source information.
Note: Recommend sources save variables instead of
global variables.
{context} *deoplete-notation-{context}*
A dictionary to give context information.
The followings are the primary information.
input (String)
The input string of current line.
complete_position (Integer)
The complete position of current source.
" Example:
pattern : r'fruits\.'
01234567
input : fruits.
complete_position : 7
complete_str (String)
The complete string of current source.
candidates (List[dict])
The current candidates.
filetype (String)
Current 'filetype'.
filetypes (List[str])
It contains current 'filetype' and same
filetypes and composite filetypes.
is_refresh (Bool)
If the input is changed, it will be "True".
is_async (Bool)
If the gather is asynchronous, the source must set
it to "True". A typical strategy for an asynchronous
gather_candidates method to use this flag is to
set is_async flag to True while results are being
produced in the background (optionally, returning them
as they become ready). Once background processing
has completed, is_async flag should be set to False
indicating that this is the last portion of the
candidates.
The below is the example of async deoplete source.
If "context['is_async']" is True, the gather_candidates is called
repeatedly.
>
from .base import Base
class Source(Base):
def __init__(self, vim):
super().__init__(vim)
self.name = 'async'
self.mark = '[async]'
self.rank = 1000
self._count = 0
def gather_candidates(self, context):
self._count += 1
context['is_async'] = self._count < 10
return [context['input'] + str(self._count)]
<

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ) *deoplete-faq*
*deoplete-faq-trouble*
1. Troubleshooting~
Q: deoplete does not work.
A: 1. Please update neovim to the latest version.
2. Please update neovim python3 module to the latest version. >
$ sudo pip3 install neovim --upgrade
<
3. Please execute ":UpdateRemotePlugins" command manually if Neovim.
4. Please install nvim-yarp plugin for Vim8.
https://github.com/roxma/nvim-yarp
5. Please install vim-hug-neovim-rpc plugin for Vim8.
https://github.com/roxma/vim-hug-neovim-rpc
6. Please check if Python3 interface works. You can check it by the command
`:echo has('python3')` .
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/wiki/Troubleshooting#python-support-isnt-working
7. You can test |g:deoplete#enable_yarp| option for neovim.
8. Please enable debug mode from command line and upload the log file. >
$ export NVIM_PYTHON_LOG_FILE=/tmp/log
$ export NVIM_PYTHON_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG
$ neovim
... Use deoplete
$ cat /tmp/log_{PID}
Q: deoplete is slow.
A: Please change |g:deoplete#auto_complete_delay| value. It is a huge delay
value intentionally. And some sources are slow. You should check which one
is slow and consider disabling them.
Q: Deoplete popup is not displayed immediately.
A: Deoplete is initialized asynchronously. So it is a feature.
Q: Neovim startup is slow when |g:deoplete#enable_at_startup| is enabled.
A: If it is enabled, Neovim will enable and load deoplete in startup. It
may be slow. You should use lazy load feature in plugin manager or use
|:autocmd| to call |deoplete#enable()|. >
" Enable deoplete when InsertEnter.
let g:deoplete#enable_at_startup = 0
autocmd InsertEnter * call deoplete#enable()
<
And you should set |g:python3_host_prog| variable. It reduces almost 20ms
startuptime.
Q: |deoplete-source-tag| does not work.
https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim/issues/309
A: Please increase |g:deoplete#tag#cache_limit_size| value.
Q: deoplete cannot complete filename after "=".
A: 'isfname' contains "=". You should remove it. >
set isfname-==
Q: Deoplete does not work with vim-multiple-cursors.
A: You must disable deoplete when using vim-multiple-cursors. >
function g:Multiple_cursors_before()
let g:deoplete#disable_auto_complete = 1
endfunction
function g:Multiple_cursors_after()
let g:deoplete#disable_auto_complete = 0
endfunction
Q: I want to debug the sources.
A: Please enable logging feature like this. >
let g:deoplete#enable_profile = 1
call deoplete#enable_logging('DEBUG', 'deoplete.log')
call deoplete#custom#source('jedi', 'is_debug_enabled', 1)
Q: "Channel id must be a positive integer" error.
https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim/issues/406

Please update them to the latest version.
Q: "Broken pipe" error.
https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim/issues/653
A: Please test dp_main.py.
https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim/issues/635#issuecomment-363331278
Please test neovim-python module.
https://github.com/neovim/python-client#usage-through-the-python-repl
Note: You can disable parallel feature by |g:deoplete#num_processes|. It is
workaround.
Q: "[deoplete] neovim-python 0.2.4+ is required." error
https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim/issues/694

*deoplete-faq-config*
2. Configuration~
Q: I want to silence the |ins-completion-menu| messages in the command line
such as "-- XXX completion (YYY)", "match 1 of 2", "The only match",
"Pattern not found", "Back at original", etc.
A: You can disable the messages through the 'shortmess' option. >
if has("patch-7.4.314")
set shortmess+=c
endif
Q: I want to use the auto select feature like |neocomplete|.
A: You can use it by the 'completeopt' option. >
set completeopt+=noinsert
Q: How do I select one of the responses from the pop up? I assume this is
really obvious, but I have not figured it out.
A: Please press <C-y> on the candidate.
Q: I want to close the preview window after completion is done.
A: >
autocmd CompleteDone * silent! pclose!
<
Note: It conflicts with iabbr.
https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim/issues/234
Q: I want to disable the preview window feature.
https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim/issues/298
A: >
set completeopt-=preview
Q: I want to look selected function's arguments in deoplete. But I don't
like preview window feature.
A: You can do it by |echodoc|.
http://github.com/Shougo/echodoc.vim
Q: When I press enter, neovim closes the popup instead of inserting new line.
A: It is Vim/neovim's default behavior (feature.) If you want to insert the
new line, you should map <CR>. >
inoremap <silent> <CR> <C-r>=<SID>my_cr_function()<CR>
function! s:my_cr_function() abort
return deoplete#close_popup() . "\<CR>"
endfunction
Q: I don't want to see the typed word in the completion menu.
A: You should add |deoplete-filter-matcher_length| to the matchers. >
call deoplete#custom#source('_', 'matchers', ['matcher_fuzzy',
\ 'matcher_length'])
<
Note: Replace `'_'` with a specific source such as `'around'` if
you want to keep seeing certain sources, e.g. snippets.
Q: How can I change the order of sources?
A: Change the rank of the sources as following, here illustrated for
UltiSnips >
call deoplete#custom#source('ultisnips', 'rank', 1000)
Q: How can I sort all entries alphabetically?
A: >
call deoplete#custom#source('_', 'sorters', ['sorter_word'])
Q: I want to use head matcher instead of fuzzy matcher.
A: You can achieve this by following >
call deoplete#custom#source('_', 'matchers', ['matcher_head'])
Q: I want to disable the buffer source.
A: You can use |g:deoplete#ignore_sources|. >
let g:deoplete#ignore_sources = {}
let g:deoplete#ignore_sources._ = ['buffer']
Q: How to prevent auto bracket completion?
https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim/issues/150
A: >
call deoplete#custom#source('_', 'converters',
\ ['converter_remove_paren'])
Q: The candidates are filtered by first character.
https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim/issues/288
A: >
call deoplete#custom#source('_', 'matchers', ['matcher_full_fuzzy'])
Q: I want to use the syntax files as a completion source
A: Please install |neco-syntax| plugin.
https://github.com/Shougo/neco-syntax
Q: I want to complete the candidates from other files.
https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim/issues/133
A: You must install |context_filetype| plugin.
https://github.com/Shougo/context_filetype.vim
And you must set |g:context_filetype#same_filetypes| variable.
Q: What is the difference of |g:deoplete#omni_patterns| and
|g:deoplete#omni#input_patterns| ?
A: |g:deoplete#omni_patterns| offers:
- can call all omni functions
- called by Vim
- Vim regexp
|g:deoplete#omni#input_patterns| offers:
- cannot call some omni functions
- can use deoplete features
- called by deoplete
- Python3 regexp
You should use |g:deoplete#omni#input_patterns| if possible.
Q: Is there a way to control the colors used for popup menu using highlight
groups?
A: Like this:
>
highlight Pmenu ctermbg=8 guibg=#606060
highlight PmenuSel ctermbg=1 guifg=#dddd00 guibg=#1f82cd
highlight PmenuSbar ctermbg=0 guibg=#d6d6d6
<
Q: What does each part of a line on the pop up mean? For example I see:
Bree pops up Breed [~] A. What do [~] and A stand for?
A: It is the source mark. [~] is from around source. A is from
|deoplete-source-around|.
*deoplete-faq-ft-specific*
3. Filetype Specific Questions~
Q: I want to disable the auto completion for certain filetypes.
A: Please use |b:deoplete_disable_auto_complete|. >
autocmd FileType tex let b:deoplete_disable_auto_complete = 1
Q: I want to use C/C++ omni completion with deoplete.
A: You can use |clang_complete| or |deoplete-clang|.
https://github.com/Rip-Rip/clang_complete
https://github.com/zchee/deoplete-clang
For clang_complete configuration is below. >
let g:clang_complete_auto = 0
let g:clang_auto_select = 0
let g:clang_omnicppcomplete_compliance = 0
let g:clang_make_default_keymappings = 0
"let g:clang_use_library = 1
<
Currently |clang_complete| supports the original deoplete source.
It is better than using omni source.
Q: I want to use jedi-vim omni completion with deoplete.
A: You should install deoplete-jedi instead of jedi-vim.
https://github.com/zchee/deoplete-jedi
Q: I want to use Java script omnifunc.
A: Please set |g:deoplete#omni#input_patterns| manually. >
let g:deoplete#omni#input_patterns = {}
let g:deoplete#omni#input_patterns.javascript = '[^. *\t]\.\w*'
Q: I want to use "vim-lua-ftplugin".
https://github.com/xolox/vim-lua-ftplugin
A: Please set the config as below. >
let g:lua_check_syntax = 0
let g:lua_complete_omni = 1
let g:lua_complete_dynamic = 0
let g:lua_define_completion_mappings = 0
let g:deoplete#omni#functions.lua = 'xolox#lua#omnifunc'
"let g:deoplete#omni#functions.lua = 'xolox#lua#completefunc'
Q: I want to complete AAA using deoplete.
A: You can create the source for it. Why don't create the source if you need?
*deoplete-faq-general*
4. General Questions~
Q: How to donate money to you?
A: I don't get the donation, but if you want to donate, please support neovim
project. My plugins depends on neovim development.
https://salt.bountysource.com/teams/neovim
Q: What means "dark powered"?
A: I think text editor is everything in the world. I want to do everything in
Vim(neovim) like Emacs. It is not allowed by |design-not| in Vim. It is not
the light way to use Vim. So I have defined it as the dark way. I am the
dark Vimmer. My plugins are dark powered.
Q: Is deoplete faster than neocomplete?
A: No. Deoplete is an asynchronous completion plugin. But it does not mean
that it is faster than neocomplete. It can skip the completion if you input
the characters too fast. I think it is great than the speed. You should use
faster machine for deoplete.
Q: Is deoplete better than completor.vim?
A: Please see
https://www.reddit.com/r/vim/comments/573e3d/completorvim_async_completion_framework_made_ease/
Q: Are there any plans to support GotoDefinition feature like YouCompleteMe?
A: https://github.com/zchee/deoplete-jedi/issues/35
