Functions

Returns Dictionary of api-metadata.

Close a channel or a specific stream associated with it. For a job, {stream} can be one of "stdin", "stdout", "stderr" or "rpc" (closes stdin/stdout for a job started with "rpc":v:true) If {stream} is omitted, all streams are closed. If the channel is a pty, this will then close the pty master, sending SIGHUP to the job process. For a socket, there is only one stream, and {stream} should be omitted.

Send data to channel {id}. For a job, it writes it to the stdin of the process. For the stdio channel channel-stdio, it writes to Nvim's stdout. Returns the number of bytes written if the write succeeded, 0 otherwise. See channel-bytes for more information.

Returns a Dictionary representing the context at {index} from the top of the context-stack (see context-dict). If {index} is not given, it is assumed to be 0 (i.e.: top).

Pops and restores the context at the top of the context-stack.

Pushes the current editor state (context) on the context-stack. If {types} is given and is a List of Strings, it specifies which context-types to include in the pushed context. Otherwise, all context types are included.

Sets the context at {index} from the top of the context-stack to that represented by {context}. {context} is a Dictionary with context data (context-dict). If {index} is not given, it is assumed to be 0 (i.e.: top).

Returns the size of the context-stack.

Adds a watcher to a dictionary. A dictionary watcher is identified by three components:

Removes a watcher added with dictwatcheradd(). All three arguments must match the ones passed to dictwatcheradd() in order for the watcher to be successfully deleted.

Returns a String which is a unique identifier of the container type (List, Dict, Blob and Partial). It is guaranteed that for the mentioned types id(v1) ==# id(v2) returns true iff type(v1) == type(v2) && v1 is v2. Note that v:_null_string, v:_null_list, v:_null_dict and v:_null_blob have the same id() with different types because they are internally represented as NULL pointers. id() returns a hexadecimal representanion of the pointers to the containers (i.e. like 0x994a40), same as printf("%p", {expr}), but it is advised against counting on the exact format of the return value.

Return the PID (process id) of job-id {job}.

Resize the pseudo terminal window of job-id {job} to {width} columns and {height} rows. Fails if the job was not started with "pty":v:true.

Spawns {cmd} as a job. If {cmd} is a List it runs directly (no 'shell'). If {cmd} is a String it runs in the 'shell', like this:

Stop job-id {id} by sending SIGTERM to the job process. If the process does not terminate after a timeout then SIGKILL will be sent. When the job terminates its on_exit handler (if any) will be invoked. See job-control.

Waits for jobs and their on_exit handlers to complete.

Returns a List of Dictionaries describing menus (defined by :menu, :amenu, โ€ฆ), including hidden-menus.

Convert a list of VimL objects to msgpack. Returned value is a readfile()-style list. When {type} contains "B", a Blob is returned instead. Example:

Convert a readfile()-style list or a Blob to a list of VimL objects. Example:

Find files in runtime directories

Opens a socket or named pipe at {address} and listens for RPC messages. Clients can send API commands to the returned address to control Nvim.

Closes the pipe or socket at {address}. Returns TRUE if {address} is valid, else FALSE. If v:servername is stopped it is set to the next available address in serverlist().

Connect a socket to an address. If {mode} is "pipe" then {address} should be the path of a named pipe. If {mode} is "tcp" then {address} should be of the form "host:port" where the host should be an ip adderess or host name, and port the port number.

With --headless this opens stdin and stdout as a channel. May be called only once. See channel-stdio. stderr is not handled by this function, see v:stderr.

Spawns {cmd} in a new pseudo-terminal session connected to the current (unmodified) buffer. Parameters and behavior are the same as jobstart() except "pty", "width", "height", and "TERM" are ignored: "height" and "width" are taken from the current window. Returns the same values as jobstart().

Waits until {condition} evaluates to TRUE, where {condition} is a Funcref or string containing an expression.
