Clarify on website that tabnine.vim is adapted from YCM

[theodcr]

First thanks for this great tool!

The website tabnine.com doesn't mention that YouCompleteMe installation instructions should be followed in order to install this plugin. This only becomes clear when landing on this repo.

So at first TabNine didn't "work as soon as I installed it" following only the instructions on tabnine.com ;-)

👍 One of the big reasons I tried TabNine was so I could remove the hook for install.py from my vimrc, disappointed to find that YCM's involved installer is still present.

Sorry about that. What error do you get when you don't run install.py?

[dharmab]

There's no error; completion silently doesn't function.

Does this mean I cannot use both YCM and TabNine? I already had YCM installed, and installing TabNine does not change the way auto completion works. I am also missing TabNine::* commands (which I understand from other issues can be triggered by typing in Insert mode).

Can you try removing YCM from your .vimrc?

[ggerganov]

Yes, commenting the YCM stuff in my .vimrc file makes TabNine work. Thanks!

[jtr860830]

So, YCM and TabNine can't work together ?

[zxqfl]

That's correct.

If you use Vundle, after commenting YCM you will have to actually remove it.

In your ~/.vimrc:

" Plugin 'Valloric/YouCompleteMe'

Then in vim itself:

:PluginClean

After this, tabnine will do the completions rather than ycm.
