This is my omni completion plugin for Lua. It works by scanning _G and parsing Vim buffers. It's also possible to specify external text files with Lua names paths (delimited with new line). It's a very useful feature when a module can not be loaded or doesn't have iterable table exposed. Nested tables are supported so you can type: :lua foobar = {numbers = {one = 1, two = 2, three = 3}} Then typing CTRL-X CTRL-O list of possible matches will open:   foobar.numbers.one   foobar.numbers.two   foobar.numbers.three Actually you can use globbing "*" and "?" characters to speed up typing like:   f*tw CTRL-X CTRL-O will output immediately:   foobar.numbers.two Single word can be used as well: three CTRL-X CTRL-O will give:   foobar.numbers.three Or even just "thr" will work too. Another way use completion is without any asterisks like: p.l.m CTRL-X CTRL-O to get:   package.loaded.math That is the new way of doing omni from this version. I've found it to be quicker and more convenient than multiple hitting CTR-X CTRL-O. Local variables completion works as before. Some other functions are supported like listing defined Lua functions in current buffer. There are common Lua abbreviation defined in lua_omni.vim too.                                                                        Mappings: CTRL-X CTRL-O     Calling the omni completion function. <Leader>fl  or  <Plug>PrintFunctionList     Prints list of defined Lua functions in current buffer. They are listed in     ascending line numbers order. Luadoc titles (if defined) are showed too.                                                                        <Leader>lf  or  <Plug>WriteAndLuaFile     Just a shortcut to call:         :w :luafile % <Leader>sli or  <Plug>SetLuaIabbrevs     Sets few common and useful insert mode abbreviations. <Leader>cli or  <Plug>ClearLuaIabbrevs     Clear any insert mode abbreviations set by previous shortcut.                                                                                                *lua_omni-settings* From 0.16 version there is support for external files with completion paths. They can be specified via shell LUA_OMNI variable. Each file path should be delimited by comma or semicolon. Additionally the same can done using Vim b:lua_omni and g:lua_omni variables. The b: if exists will override g: however shell LUA_OMNI will be read and used in all cases. Format of completions files is very simple. Each line contains single Lua path like: foomodule.barPart foomodule.barPart.spam foomodule.barPart.spam.not foomodule.barPart.spam.twice foomodule.barPart.spam.multiply foomodule.__inner foomodule.__inner.foo math2mod math2mod.exp math2mod.div ... (and so on) Order of lines is meaningless as results are sorted anyway. You may try lapg.lua script to generate such completion list automatically. From 0.17 version there is folding using foldexpr function. To enable it just set foldenable option. It has configurable variables: g:lua_inner_folds and b:lua_inner_folds. When set to 1 folding is nested. When not existent, or set to other value than 1, folds will have one level only.  Of course the b: version will override the g:. To regenerate folds use the zx or zX normal commands. Though folding function try not to fold malformed blocks it depends on correct order of opening/closing statements.

install details

Just extract and copy files from lua_omni.zip into local .vim/ftplugin and .vim/doc directories. Then execute in Vim: :helptags ~/.vim/doc Alternatively you may download it from github at: git@github.com:rkowal/Lua-Omni-Vim-Completion.git To get a help type: :help lua_omni Beware! Vim 7.3 is needed with enabled Lua support.
