Definitions and references inside current buffer

LSP: 2D 6R

Definitions or references outside current buffer

LSP: 1(2)D 4(10)R

• 1 definition in the current buffer
• 2 definitions in the workspace
• 4 references in the current buffer
• 10 definitions in the workspace

• LSP activity spinner, similar to fidget.nvim, but less obtrusive.
• Ignores null-ls and none-ls.

Returns the lspCount information as Lua table for custom formatting.

{
	file = {
		definitions = 1,
		references = 4,
	},
	workspace = {
		definitions = 2,
		references = 10,
	},
}

-- lazy.nvim
{ "chrisgrieser/nvim-dr-lsp" },

-- packer
use { "chrisgrieser/nvim-dr-lsp" }

-- adding the components to lualine.nvim
{
	sections = {
		lualine_c = {
			{ require("dr-lsp").lspCount },
			{ require("dr-lsp").lspProgress },
		},
	}
}

There is no .setup call for this plugin. Just add the components to your statusline.

• Definitions are under-dashed, references are under-dotted.
• These are set up automatically for you as soon as the buffer is attached to an LSP client.
• To disable the highlights feature, set vim.g.dr_lsp_no_highlight = true before loading the plugin.

There are no built-in options to format the components, since formatting can already be done with most statusline plugins. With Lualine, for example, you can use the fmt option:

lualine_c = {
	{ 
		require("dr-lsp").lspCount, 
		-- remove the letters from the component
		fmt = function(str) return str:gsub("[RD]", "") end,
	},
},

• symbol-usage.nvim

The basic idea for the progress component came from folke.
