Neovim Select a Language Prompt

Question

I am using Neovim with LSP and I am having an issue with saving any of my tsx file. I keep getting prompted to select a language server:

Here is how I am configuring my language servers

lspinstall.setup()
local servers = lspinstall.installed_servers()

for _, lsp in ipairs(servers) do
  if lsp == 'tsserver' then
    require('lsp.tsserver')
  elseif lsp == 'efm' then
    require('lsp.efm')
  elseif lsp == 'html' then
    require('lsp.html')
  else
    nvim_lsp[lsp].setup {on_attach = on_attach, settings = {Lua = {diagnostics = {globals = {'vim'}}}}}
  end
end

If I do :LspInfo I am seeing the 2 servers seen in the screenshot.

EFM config

local lspconfig = require 'lspconfig'

local prettier = {formatCommand = './node_modules/.bin/prettier --config-precedence prefer-file --stdin-filepath ${INPUT}', formatStdin = true}
local luaFormat = {
  formatCommand = 'lua-format -i --no-keep-simple-function-one-line --column-limit=120 --indent-width=2 --double-quote-to-single-quote',
  formatStdin = true
}

lspconfig.efm.setup {
  -- cmd = {'efm-langserver', '-logfile', '/tmp/efm.log', '-loglevel', '5'},
  on_attach = on_attach,
  init_options = {documentFormatting = true},
  filetypes = {'javascriptreact', 'javascript', 'lua', 'typescriptreact', 'typescript'},
  settings = {
    rootMarkers = {'.git/'},
    languages = {lua = {luaFormat}, typescript = {prettier}, typescriptreact = {prettier}}
  }
}

typescript config

local lspconfig = require 'lspconfig'

lspconfig.tsserver.setup {
  on_attach = function(client, bufnr)
    client.resolved_capabilities.document_formatting = false

    on_attach(client, bufnr)
  end,
  settings = {diagnostics = {globals = {'on_attach'}}}
}

Thanks for any help

You need to not report the formatting capabilities to any lsp you do not want to format.

For example, if you're using tsserver but only want to use null-ls for formatting:


require("lspconfig").tsserver.setup({
    on_attach = function(client)
        client.resolved_capabilities.document_formatting = false
        client.resolved_capabilities.document_range_formatting = false
    end,
})

This will make Neovim default to null-ls for formatting and disable the prompt.

There was a recent change to better support multiple LSPs, you can see the details here: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/14462 and the gist of it is: use formatting_seq_sync() instead of formatting_sync(): https://neovim.io/doc/user/lsp.html#vim.lsp.buf.formatting_seq_sync()

This seems to run either the wrong formatter, or multiple formatters for me. – PatKilg Mar 30 '22 at 04:39
`formatting_seq_sync(nil, 1000, {"null-ls"})` will make sure the null-ls language server does the formatting. However the other language(s) server(s) WILL be invoked before your chosen one, so you'll get poor performance. – Emmanuel Touzery May 24 '22 at 20:55
