Argument hints

[tjoskar]

Hi,

First of all I want to thank you, @marijnh, for a fantastic job with ternJS, it's awesome (and I can't wait for ES6 support, I will gladly fund it).

However, I have some problem to get argument hints for function call, see my gif:

Do I miss something? My Preferences.sublime-settings contains the following lines:

"tern_command": [
    "/usr/local/bin/node",
    "/absoult_path_to/Packages/tern_for_sublime/node_modules/tern/bin/tern"
],
"tern_argument_hints": true,

My .tern-project:

{
  "plugins": {
    "doc_comment": {
      "fullDocs": true
    }
  }
}

In brackets I get the following (expected) result:

Your setting looks entirely correct, and given the fact that you are getting proper completions, I can't explain why the argment hints are not showing up. Maybe try adding debug output (Python print statements will end up in the ctrl-~ console) to the plugin code, to see whether arghints_enabled ends up being set to True, and whether show_argument_hints is being called, etcetera.

FWIW, argument hints are working for me.

Nice, I have tried it on an other computer (build 3070) and it works like a charm. I will however wait for build 3070 to be released as non-dev-preview before I use it. I close this ticket in the meanwhile.

+1 on the problem of non-showing argument hints in both, build 3065 and 3079 despite setting tern_argument_hints

@chris-- argument hints wont appear until you're within the (..) of the function.

The screenshot provided shows the correct behavior.

@subhaze ah, i see. Apparently, it does work on dev build 3079! Thanks for the quick response.
