Filetype not working anymore

[flamendless]

Hi, previous I have this in my config:

        filetype = {
            overrides = {
                -- extensions = { lua2p = "lua", },
                function_extensions = {
                    lua = function()
                        vim.bo.filetype = "lua"
                        require("user.love").SetLove()
                    end,
                    lua2p = function()
                        require("user.love").SetLua2p()
                    end
                }
            },
        },

which adds syntax highlighting to my custom extension, but after updating to the latest astrovim config it does not work anymore, I also tried moving that to the polish function and:

    --also in polish
    vim.filetype.add = {
      extensions = {
        lua = function()
          vim.bo.filetype = "lua"
          require("user.love").SetLove()
        end,
        lua2p = function()
          require("user.love").SetLua2p()
        end
      }
    }

Do you happen to have vim polyglot installed?

[flamendless]

No, i only have these additional plugins:

      {"gpanders/editorconfig.nvim"},
      {"f-person/git-blame.nvim"},
      {"simnalamburt/vim-mundo"},
      {"bkad/CamelCaseMotion"},
      {"dewyze/vim-tada"},

Are you using nightly still? Or have you moved to using stable AstroNvim/Neovim? Also can you provide a link/paste your user config and I can try to take a look. I can't replicate on a base AstroNvim installation or my own configuration.

Didn't work for stable and nightly. Now im using nightly. Here's the link to my config https://github.com/flamendless/AstroVim/tree/main/lua/user the init_backup.lua is the previous config that works before me updating

According to :help vim.filetype.add() it looks like a function should return the string that it should set as the filetype. So I think it should be something like this:

    --also in polish
    vim.filetype.add {
      extensions = {
        lua = function()
          require("user.love").SetLove()
          return "lua"
        end,
        lua2p = function()
          require("user.love").SetLua2p()
          return "lua"
        end
      }
    }

Have you checked the docs and tried something like this to follow what they describe?

The filetype can be either a string (in which case it is used as the filetype directly) or a function. If a function, it takes the full path and buffer number of the file as arguments (along with captures from the matched pattern, if any) and should return a string that will be used as the buffer's filetype.

I've tried that, didn't work. whats confusing is that the previous config (even if not in polish function) worked.

i think the code is not ran, after opening a lua2p file and doing :set filetype? i get filetype= only

[mehalter]

It should go in the polish function since neovim 0.7 has moved filetype.lua to core Neovim. So this is no longer a plugin. I also just noticed your blunder in your polish function. Give this a try:

    --also in polish
    vim.filetype.add {
      extensions = {
        lua = function()
          require("user.love").SetLove()
          return "lua"
        end,
        lua2p = function()
          require("user.love").SetLua2p()
          return "lua"
        end
      }
    }

Ahhh i missed that function call instead of assignment in vim.filetype.add, Ive tried that (ive pushed my config) but it still didnt work :/

[mehalter]

I also just noticed in the :help vim.filetype.add that it is extension not extensions. After that your config works for me.

    --also in polish
    vim.filetype.add {
      extension = {
        lua = function()
          require("user.love").SetLove()
          return "lua"
        end,
        lua2p = function()
          require("user.love").SetLua2p()
          return "lua"
        end
      }
    }

Awesome. works now. now i need to turn off lua lsp for lua2p files

[mehalter]

do you just want to not change the filetype to lua like you had before? Just return lua2p or something instead of lua

[flamendless]

if i do that i dont get any syntax highlighting anymore. basically what im aiming for is lua syntax highlight but no lsp since it has custom tokens so the lsp will complain alot

[mehalter]

Interesting, good luck haha I'm not sure of a good way to do that.

Finally figured it out by accident, i removed the return "lua" and return "lua2p" and it works
