Confusing install steps for blink

[martisj]

I use blink.cmp and want to use Windsurf/Codeium (what should I call it?) and find these instructions.
First it's the default install:

{
    "Exafunction/windsurf.nvim",
    dependencies = {
        "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",
        "hrsh7th/nvim-cmp",
    },
    config = function()
        require("codeium").setup({
        })
    end
}

It says the plugin name is windsurf.nvim. Then in the blink.cmp section it says this:

{
  'saghen/blink.cmp',
  dependencies = {
    {
      'Exafunction/codeium.nvim',
    },
  },
  opts = {
    sources = {
      default = { 'lsp', 'path', 'snippets', 'buffer', 'codeium' },
      providers = {
        codeium = { name = 'Codeium', module = 'codeium.blink', async = true },
      },
    },
  },
}

Here the dependency is codeium.nvim, which one is it?
For those that want to use blink, do we add saghen/blink.cmp to the dependency table for Exafunction/windsurf.nvim and set the dependency for saghen/blink.cmp to Exafunction/windsurf.nvim ?

windsurf was named codeium and it still uses codeium internally, so just use it. I went the 1st option and it worked

[martisj]

So you have this set up with blink.cmp as well @kien5436 ?

[martisj]

Can you show me your spec config @kien5436 ?

Yes this was all confusing to me as well but recently reworked the examples to function for me:

-- Windsurf
return {
  {
    "Exafunction/windsurf.nvim",
    dependencies = {
      "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",
      "saghen/blink.cmp",
    },
    config = function()
      require("codeium").setup({
        enable_cmp_source = false,
      })
    end,
  },
}

-- Blink
{
    "saghen/blink.cmp",
    dependencies = {
      "rafamadriz/friendly-snippets",
      "Exafunction/windsurf.nvim",
    },
    ---@module 'blink.cmp'
    ---@type blink.cmp.Config
    opts = {
      keymap = { preset = "default" },

      appearance = {
        nerd_font_variant = "mono",
      },

      -- (Default) Only show the documentation popup when manually triggered
      completion = { documentation = { auto_show = false } },

      -- Default list of enabled providers defined so that you can extend it
      -- elsewhere in your config, without redefining it, due to `opts_extend`
      sources = {
        default = { "lsp", "path", "snippets", "buffer", "codeium" },
      providers = {
        codeium = { name = "Codeium", module = "codeium.blink", async = true },                                                                                      │
      },
      },
      -- (Default) Rust fuzzy matcher for typo resistance and significantly better performance
      -- You may use a lua implementation instead by using `implementation = "lua"` or fallback to the lua implementation,
      -- when the Rust fuzzy matcher is not available, by using `implementation = "prefer_rust"`
      --
      -- See the fuzzy documentation for more information
      fuzzy = { implementation = "prefer_rust_with_warning" }
    },
    opts_extend = { "sources.default" }
  },

However, even though it appears to work, I still get the following error when loaded. It looks like the plugin is still trying to depend on nvim-cmp?

@jasonshanks you can pass enable_cmp_source = false to windsurf.setup({}) function to disable nvim-cmp dependency.

[jasonshanks]

That solved it! Thanks @aliaksandr-trush 🤗
I've updated the code above for anyone else in future.
