Does not work with latest version of node-host

[Kelvin-Chen]

When I run it with the latest version of node-host (v1.0.0) I get Unknown function: ParinferIndent. Downgrading back to v0.0.1 fixes the problem.

neovim/node-host@0c116cb mentions that breaking changes are incoming, so it looks like whatever changes they made broke this plugin.

Are there any plans to support the new node-host or should I just stay on v0.0.1 for now?

[snoe]

I'm still debating between 1.0.0 and contributing to https://github.com/clojure-vim/neovim-client to allow hosting.

Is anyone using plugins that require node-host 1.0.0?

[Kelvin-Chen]

v1.0.0 was only released 10 days ago, so there probably aren't any plugins that rely on it currently. I'm using quite a bit plugins and this is the only one I have that relies on node-host, so I can personally stay on v0.0.1 for as long as I want.

I downgraded node-host but I'm not unable to get :UpdateRemotePlugins to work, @Kelvin-Chen did you run into the same issue per chance?

[Kelvin-Chen]

@diffractometer I did not run into any issues with downgrading. Did you run npm install in the node-host directory?

[diffractometer]

@Kelvin-Chen Thanks! That worked! Derp, I should have tried that. 🍻 <~ on me. Cheers.

@snoe I'm not using any plugins which require node-host 1.0.0.

I have this issue and honestly I think I've tried all combinations of all the random weird commands one should perform. I even tried downgrading node-host. All I get is just:

I was able to undo the breaking changes, but with quite a bit of fiddling. I'm using vim-plugged to install my dependencies, which only seemed to download the latest HEAD. So when I define my plugins like:

call plug#begin('~/.vim/plugged')
Plug 'neovim/node-host'
call plug#end()

I don't seem to get the full git repository; I run git log --pretty=oneline and only get the latest commit:

d6de4e79bed0c71e74380e7b11cafaa1a0e9c055 Merge pull request #31 from neovim/fix/health-check-requiring-yarn

So my first thought was to wipe away what vim-plugged downloaded, and clone manually:

$ cd ~/.vim/plugged/
$ rm -rf node-host
$ git clone https://github.com/neovim/node-host

Next I checked out the reference to the non-breaking build, and installed its dependencies:

$ cd node-host
$ git checkout 0c116cb3b48af7debe8d6bbaa35dcab064d58fb9 .
$ npm install

This only fixed part of the problem, though. It seems there's a global dependency on node-host that must be resolved as well. I'm unsure why, but doing npm install -g node-host@0.0.1 fails as the module cannot be found.

So I took a shot in the dark and moved the node-host module from ~/.vim/plugged/ to /usr/local/lib/node_modules/:

$ rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node_modules/node-host
$ cp -R ~/.vim/plugged/node-host /usr/local/lib/node_modules/

Afterwards opening vim and running :UpdateRemotePlugins seems to have restored parinfer back to a stable condition! I can't guarantee this works on other workstations, but I thought I'd share in case someone ends up here from Google.

[oemmerson]

All you need to do is cd to plugged/node-host, git checkout v0.0.1, npm install, restart vim and run :UpdateRemotePlugins.

[AlexChalk]

@snoe This is the only plugin I'm using with node-host.

[ashnur]

Is anyone using plugins that require node-host 1.0.0?

not even node-host

[markx]

@snoe Since this is a plugin not only for Clojure development, and node-host has been merged into neovim, I think it's better to support node-host than clojure-vim/neovim-client.

[snoe]

@markx Unfortunately, it looks like we're still stuck with node-client and it's dependency tree. You're right though, and I think it's a good time to bring this plugin back inline with everything.

[snoe]

Ok I think I've got things updated to run with the HEAD version of neovim.
I removed node-host from my plugins dir
I brew install --head neovim
I updated this plugin
I updated node to 8.9.1
I ran brew install -g neovim
Reran :UpdateRemotePlugins and restarted neovim
Parinfer seemed to be working.

I'd like at least one person to confirm things look ok for them before closing this off.

Thanks for your patience.

[duikboot]

It doesn't work for me, yet.

• Updated neovim to NVIM v0.2.2-38-gf8d40e7d5
• removed node-host directiory
• updated node to 8,9.1
• npm install -g neovim
• :UpdateRemotePlugins

Neovim doesn't have the Node provider available, I made created an issue in neovim
