Currently this feature is not supported. I deliberately didn't support it or at least unless someone asked for it. Since I like VS and VSCode style completion I made the algorithm similar to how they work and I have not heard anyone customizing the default behavior in VS. (more details at https://github.com/prabirshrestha/asyncomplete.vim/pull/3 and https://github.com/roxma/nvim-completion-manager/issues/30#issuecomment-283281158).
That said I open to adding this feature. I will be busy for couple of days so won't have time to look at it but should be fairly simple to send a PR for this. You would need to modify s:python_cm_refresh
function and if a:force
is false and g:asyncomplete_auto_popup
(new option) is false and pumvisible()
is false do nothing. Then map tab
as trigger key imap <tab> <Plug>(asyncomplete_force_refresh)
. This is already supported and documented in README.md. By default I would set g:asyncomplete_auto_popup
to be 1.
Once neovim official releases lua remote plugin support I plan to write the matcher func similar to VS in lua so hopefully it will be better there. If possible I may also be able to make that lua work in vim8.
Ok, thanks for the hints — I'll try to take a stab on it.
It looks like asyncomplete tries to complete on any buffer change by default. Is it possible to only try to complete when user explicitly asks for it — on
Tab
keypress, for example?
