How can I disable blink in NvimTree?

[alienxp03]

Trying to add new file, will show me completions which I don't need. Trying the setup below but doesn't seems to work

    enabled = function()
      return not vim.tbl_contains({ "NvimTree" }, vim.bo.filetype)
    end,

You have several way to do it, see: https://cmp.saghen.dev/recipes.html#disable-per-filetype-buffer

I'm in favor of leveraging vim.b.completion; for instance create a file in after/plugin/NvimTree.lua and add the following line:

vim.b.completion = false

Similar as above, just need to find the right key. Iirc, it's DressingUI. Might be wrong here though.

I didn't proceed with the change as I've switch to Snacks input instead and it doesn't have any conflict.

I had the same issue, so FYI @nonepork the solution is to check for the filetype "DressingInput" instead of "NvimTree".

enabled = function()
  return not vim.tbl_contains({ "DressingInput" }, vim.bo.filetype)
end,

You can check this yourself by running :lua =vim.bo.filetype while you have the prompt open to add a new file name, rename, etc.

hey folks, I'm not being able to find what it is in my case (I'm also using nvim-tree), because if I set ft in my input, it shows me that it's NvimTree

any tips on where else to look?

yeah I kinda just went back to nvim-cmp xD

Made a quick autocommand to find out what the buffer is on insert:

commands.auto('InsertCharPre', {
    callback = function()
        local buf = vim.api.nvim_get_current_buf()
        local name = vim.api.nvim_buf_get_name(buf)
        local ft = vim.bo[buf].filetype
        vim.notify(string.format('Buf %d: %s [%s]', buf, name ~= '' and name or '(no name)', ft))
    end,
})

Turns out in my case, the buffer literally had no name (which is the input for the live filtering of nvim-tree/nvim-tree.lua), so I just added an empty string to the table of enable:

enabled = function()
      local disabled_filetypes = { '' }
      return not vim.tbl_contains(disabled_filetypes, vim.bo.filetype)
 end,

This could be fixed by a PR to nvim-tree and setting a buffer name for the input, or maybe by adding a warning for this little quirk on blink docs, but I have time for neither.
