Out of box, this plugin reconsturct completion_item and applies Treesitter highlight queries to produce richly colorized completion items with variable-size highlight ranges, somehow similar to lspkind.nvim.
Highly beta.
run nvim -u ~/.config/nvim/repro.lua ~/.config/nvim/repro.lua as a minimal reproduce template
see repro.lua
Has built-in supports for rust-analyzer(rust), gopls(go), typescript-language-server/vtsls, lua-ls, clangd(C/CPP), intelephense(php), zls(zig), roslyn(C#), for any other language, default to directly apply treesitter highlight to label (feel free to open feature request for more languages).
Currently supports nvim-cmp and blink.cmp.
With lazy.nvim:

if highlights_info ~= nil then
vim_item.abbr_hl_group = highlights_info.highlights
vim_item.abbr = highlights_info.text
end
return vim_item

endIf you want to customize a bit more in those options, here is a more granular control approach:

config = function()
require("blink.cmp").setup({
completion = {
menu = {
draw = {
-- We don't need label_description now because label and label_description are already
-- conbined together in label by colorful-menu.nvim.
columns = { { "kind_icon" }, { "label", gap = 1 } },
components = {
label = {
width = { fill = true, max = 60 },
text = function(ctx)
local highlights_info = require("colorful-menu").blink_highlights(ctx)
if highlights_info ~= nil then
-- Or you want to add more item to label
return highlights_info.label
else
return ctx.label
end
end,
highlight = function(ctx)
local highlights = {}
local highlights_info = require("colorful-menu").blink_highlights(ctx)
if highlights_info ~= nil then
highlights = highlights_info.highlights
end
for _, idx in ipairs(ctx.label_matched_indices) do
table.insert(highlights, { idx, idx + 1, group = "BlinkCmpLabelMatch" })
end
-- Do something else
return highlights
end,
},
},
},
},
},
})
endNote: you may want to set CmpItemAbbrMatch or BlinkCmpLabelMatch to only has bold style (without fg) to have the similar effect as blow images.
