tern and ycm

[asmod3us]

Hey,

I came here from a ycm issue threat. You mentioned using tern and ycm. I'm trying to set that up too. Is tern completion showing up for you in the ycm popup window? I find that "some" completion seems to be displayed, but certainly not context relevant stuff.

Browsing through your config, I didn't find any special setup for it except for the ctags/jcstags stuff. Is that the "magic" to get it working? Or did I miss something else?

My current ycm config is

let g:ycm_seed_identifiers_with_syntax=1 let g:ycm_add_preview_to_completeopt = 0 let g:ycm_confirm_extra_conf=0 set completeopt-=preview let g:ycm_cache_omnifunc = 0

Hmm, mine is still working find and I am completely up to date. Try creating a blank file like:

var obj = {
    foo: true,
    bar: 'hello'
};

var baz = 'something-else';

When you type obj. it should suggest those two values within the object and their type. If it doesn't do that, maybe you haven't grabbed the npm modules or something?

I think my setup is fine, since i can see tern's node process while vim is running.

So I just tried your sample and when i type the '.' after object, a completion popup appears. It doesn't show anything related to obj. I took a screenhot: http://goo.gl/cmlb4d. However, when i invoke vim's omnicompletion explicitly with C-x C-p it offers me somewhat more relavant completion: http://goo.gl/uN7HtU.

May I ask for a screenshot of your completion in action? I think i'll probably ask the ycm guys if there's a setting for that. Hold on, as i'm typing this i figured it out. I had an autocmd that set an omnifunc:

autocmd FileType javascript setlocal omnifunc=javascriptcomplete#CompleteJS

Removing that line did the trick. Many thanks for getting me on the right track ;-) I'm leaving this comment in case others stumble over the same thing.

I'm glad you found the problem! :D

I close this off now then.
