Python function signture does not work! #783
Description
Activity
Hi, LazyVim uses
noice.nvimto trigger signature help automatically, I believe. Kickstart does not use it. You can either add the plugin or add a keymap to trigger it.Thank you @nhld
Anyone knows how to trigger it? If I were to installnoice.nvim,I might as well stay withLazyVim. Without function signature, a code completion feature is 50% ready
Thanks!Add this keymap:
vim.keymap.set('i', '<C-k>', vim.lsp.buf.signature_help, { buffer = event.buf, desc = 'Signature Documentation' })
This is where you should put it:
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('LspAttach', { group = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup('kickstart-lsp-attach', { clear = true }), callback = function(event) vim.keymap.set('i', '<C-k>', vim.lsp.buf.signature_help, { buffer = event.buf, desc = 'Signature Documentation' }) -- NOTE: Remember that lua is a real programming language, and as such it is possible -- to define small helper and utility functions so you don't have to repeat yourself -- many times. -- -- In this case, we create a function that lets us more easily define mappings specific -- for LSP related items. It sets the mode, buffer and description for us each time. local map = function(keys, func, desc) vim.keymap.set('n', keys, func, { buffer = event.buf, desc = 'LSP: ' .. desc }) end
<C-k>will show the signature doc in insert mode.Thank you so much @nhld It worked but apparently to keep it floating while typing the arguments takes some work especially when highlighting the active argument only

I really liked kickstart and I am trying to migrate from LazyVim but things did not work 100% for Python Auto completion.
I simply enabled the pyright language server as follow
Python auto-completion worked just fine except for function signatures. No information about arguments. The same nvim on the same machine (Debian 12) with LazyVim, function signatures and arguments details worked as expected. I wonder if I am missing something here.
