Osv works with continue()
as well but it might work differently from what you expect. continue()
can work in two ways in dap:
Probably your configuration for python and rust works in launch mode. run_this()
also does that to some extent. As you might have guessed osv works primarily in an attach mode, meaning you need to launch a separate instance of neovim manually and use continue()
. See the documentation on how to use it.
If you really want to have a launch configuration, it's technically possible. The creator of nvim-dap has made one which only works with alacritty available here: https://github.com/mfussenegger/dotfiles/blob/2428fc92505bb5aa5c48d475f1f7a23cbf64fc00/vim/.config/nvim/ftplugin/lua.lua#L3-L43 . But if you have tmux or something similar, opening a new neovim instance should just be a few keystrokes away.
Also note that osv is primarily used to debug plugin where you almost always need a separate neovim instance so it either needs to be launched manually or via a launcher script.
With Python and Rust, when doing dap continue it is able to launch the debugger.
With osv I could only achieve debugging using require'osv'.run_this() to achieve the same. This means that key maps need to be different between lua and other languages.
Is there a way to configure osv or dap so the same technique of dap continue will work also for lua debugging?
