changing keymaps in a seperate file

[Shmerlard]

hi, i like to keep my keymaps all organized in one file
in nvim-cmp i had somethin like this in my keymaps.lua

require('nvim-cmp').setup({
    mapping = {
        ['<C-e>'] = cmp.mapping.abort(),
        ['<CR>'] = cmp.mapping.confirm({ select = false }), -- Accept currently selected item. Set `select` to `false` to only confirm explicitly selected items.
        ['<Tab>'] = cmp.mapping.select_next_item(),
        ['<S-Tab>'] = cmp.mapping.select_prev_item(),
        ['<C-S>'] = cmp.mapping.close(),
        ['<C-p>'] = function() if cmp.visible_docs() then cmp.close_docs() else cmp.open_docs() end end
    }
})

i tried to do something similiar like this in blink but couldnt get it to work

blink.setup({
    opts = {
        keymap = {
            preset = 'none'
        }}

})

it only works when setting preset = 'none' in the configuration of blink
is there something similiar i can do about it?

Try this:

require 'blink.cmp'.setup {
    keymap = {
        preset = 'none',
    },
}

setup wants the opts table - you're giving it another table containing the opts table, so it won't be having any effect.

unfortunately it doesnt work, i read that blink doesnt support dynamic setup yet

Oh - the base setup function doesn't let you run it twice. We can probably do this...

require 'blink.cmp.config'.merge_with({
  keymap = {
    preset = 'none',
    [ your binds ],
  }
})
require 'blink.cmp.keymap'.setup()

Which seems to work for me. Give it a go, but I can't say how stable it'll be since I imagine there's a reason it doesn't want to run twice usually. (Edit: ALSO, I guess you should put keymap = { preset = 'none' } in the opts table in the plugin spec to stop it creating the default binds before this code runs!)

[Shmerlard]

looks great!, yeah it works,
but why do we need the require'blink.cmp.keymap'.setup() ?

[i-am-egg]

That's the function blink.cmp.setup() calls to create the keymaps:

blink.cmp/lua/blink/cmp/init.lua

Line 28 in 586ee87

require('blink.cmp.keymap').setup()

Those top two lines stop the main setup function running more than once:

  if has_setup then return end
  has_setup = true

So we skip that and run the keymap module's setup function directly, after merging in your config:

blink.cmp/lua/blink/cmp/keymap/init.lua

Line 71 in 586ee87

function keymap.setup()

Which, at a glance, looks like it should probably be okay to run more than once, as long as the keymap preset in the plugin spec is set to none.
