How to make blink work with shell.nix?

[datacurse]

When i enter shell.nix, and hover over BeautifulSoup and press <leader>K it tells me i dont have documentation. I blame some blink/nix integration, feels like it just doesnt know that its installed?

if not nixCats('general') then
  return
end

require('blink.cmp').setup({
  -- 'default' (recommended) for mappings similar to built-in completions (C-y to accept)
  -- See :h blink-cmp-config-keymap for configuring keymaps
  keymap = { preset = 'default' },
  appearance = {
    nerd_font_variant = 'mono',
  },
  signature = { enabled = true },
  sources = {
    default = { 'lsp', 'path', 'snippets', 'buffer' },
  },
  -- Disable autocompletion for specific filetypes
  enabled = function()
    local disabled_filetypes = { 'markdown', 'text', 'tex', 'plaintex', 'md', 'txt' }
    local current_filetype = vim.bo.filetype

    for _, ft in ipairs(disabled_filetypes) do
      if ft == current_filetype then
        return false
      end
    end

    return true
  end,
})

What lsp are you using for python?

Also Im pretty sure its bs4? so it would be python3 -m pydoc 'bs4' no? I might be wrong, I dont python much

But by default, the python3 from your shell should win out over the python3 from nixCats in your path, because the ones from nixCats are suffixed to the path by default

With the exception of things that use the python3 remote host, because those look at vim.g.python3_host_prog

ok, so the issue was that i did non install+enable the lsp for python 💀

also, it seems that i need to enter nix shell first and only then open nvim.

installing pyright and entering nix first solved the issue and i can see hints now, thanks!
