| 1 | +# Markdown LSP Module - Implementation Summary |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +## Overview |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +Created a comprehensive, **in-process markdown LSP module** for down.nvim that provides intelligent completions, semantic highlighting, and contextual hints - all running directly in Neovim's Lua runtime without any external server. |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +## Key Features Implemented |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +### ✅ Automatic Loading |
| 10 | +- Module loads automatically when `lsp` is in config |
| 11 | +- Can be disabled with `enabled = false` |
| 12 | +- Only activates for markdown files in configured workspaces |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +### ✅ 13 Completion Types |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +1. **Tag Completion** (`#tag`) |
| 17 | + - Shows all existing tags with usage count |
| 18 | + - Example: `#proj` → `#project (5 uses)` |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +2. **Link Completion** (`[[link]]`) |
| 21 | + - All workspace files with previews |
| 22 | + - Relative paths shown |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +3. **Date/Time Snippets** (`@date`) |
| 25 | + - `@today`, `@now`, `@yesterday`, `@tomorrow` |
| 26 | + - `@week`, `@month`, `@year` |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +4. **Frontmatter/YAML** (in `---` blocks) |
| 29 | + - `title`, `author`, `date`, `tags`, `categories` |
| 30 | + - `draft`, `description`, `keywords` |
| 31 | + - `toc`, `math`, `mermaid` |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +5. **Heading Symbols** (`## heading`) |
| 34 | + - Lists all headings in document |
| 35 | + - Shows level and line number |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +6. **Emoji Completion** (`:emoji:`) |
| 38 | + - 20+ common emojis |
| 39 | + - `:smile:` → 😊, `:fire:` → 🔥 |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +7. **Workspace Symbols** (`@@workspace`) |
| 42 | + - All configured workspaces |
| 43 | + - Common symbols (index, notes, journal, etc.) |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +8. **Reference Links** (`[ref]:`) |
| 46 | + - Auto-complete existing reference definitions |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +9. **Markdown Syntax Snippets** |
| 49 | + - heading, bold, italic, code, codeblock |
| 50 | + - link, wikilink, image, table |
| 51 | + - task, list, ordered, quote |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +### ✅ Semantic Features |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +- **Syntax Highlighting**: Tags and links auto-highlighted |
| 56 | +- **Inlay Hints**: Backlink counts and tag metadata |
| 57 | +- **Auto-refresh**: Updates on text change and buffer events |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +## Configuration |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +### Default (Enabled) |
| 62 | +```lua |
| 63 | +require("down").setup({ |
| 64 | + lsp = {} -- Auto-loads markdown LSP |
| 65 | +}) |
| 66 | +``` |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +### Custom Configuration |
| 69 | +```lua |
| 70 | +require("down").setup({ |
| 71 | + ["lsp.markdown"] = { |
| 72 | + config = { |
| 73 | + enabled = true, -- Master switch |
| 74 | + completion = true, -- All completion features |
| 75 | + semantic_tokens = true, -- Syntax highlighting |
| 76 | + inlay_hints = true, -- Virtual text hints |
| 77 | + workspace_symbols = true, -- @@ completion |
| 78 | + frontmatter = true, -- YAML frontmatter |
| 79 | + } |
| 80 | + } |
| 81 | +}) |
| 82 | +``` |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +### Disable |
| 85 | +```lua |
| 86 | +require("down").setup({ |
| 87 | + ["lsp.markdown"] = { |
| 88 | + config = { enabled = false } |
| 89 | + } |
| 90 | +}) |
| 91 | +``` |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +## Architecture |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +### Module Structure |
| 96 | +``` |
| 97 | +lsp/markdown/ |
| 98 | +├── init.lua - Main module, attachment logic |
| 99 | +├── completion.lua - All 13 completion providers |
| 100 | +├── semantic.lua - Semantic token provider |
| 101 | +├── hints.lua - Inlay hints provider |
| 102 | +├── README.md - Technical overview |
| 103 | +├── USAGE.md - User guide with examples |
| 104 | +└── FEATURES.md - Complete feature list |
| 105 | +``` |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +### Implementation Details |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | +**No External Server**: Everything runs in Lua using: |
| 110 | +- `omnifunc` for completion (`<C-x><C-o>`) |
| 111 | +- `nvim_buf_add_highlight` for semantic tokens |
| 112 | +- `nvim_buf_set_extmark` for inlay hints |
| 113 | + |
| 114 | +**Workspace-Aware**: |
| 115 | +- Only activates in configured workspaces |
| 116 | +- Caches workspace files, tags, backlinks |
| 117 | +- Auto-refreshes on `BufEnter` and `BufWritePost` |
| 118 | + |
| 119 | +**Performance**: |
| 120 | +- Lazy loading (only for workspace files) |
| 121 | +- Incremental updates |
| 122 | +- Cached data structures |
| 123 | + |
