cmp-tidal

Autocompletion for Tidal Cycles powered by nvim-cmp and hoogle.

Requirements

• neovim
• nvim-cmp
• plenary.nvim
• hoogle

Installation

Nvim-cmp

Please have a look at the offical repo.

Cmp-tidal

For vim-plug:

Plug 'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim'
Plug 'fools-mate/cmp-tidal'

For packer.nvim:

use {'fools-mate/cmp-tidal', requires = 'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim'}

Hoogle

cabal install hoogle
hoogle generate

Configuration

Tidal

require("cmp").setup({
  sources = {
    {name = 'tidal'},
    -- ...more sources
  }
})

Samples

require("cmp").setup({
  sources = {
    {name = 'tidal'},
    {name = 'tidal_samples'},
    -- ...more sources
  }
})

Options

By default tidal_samples will use the standard installation paths for the 'Dirt Samples'. You can change this by passing the absolute path to your 'Dirt Samples' folder to the dirt_samples option.

E.g.:

require("cmp").setup({
  sources = {
    {name = 'tidal'},
    {
      name = 'tidal_samples',
      option = {
        dirt_samples = '/Users/fools-mate/Library/Application Support/SuperCollider/downloaded-quarks/Dirt-Samples'
      }
    },
    -- ...more sources
  }
})

Roadmap

• New option: custom_samples to pass additional custom sample folders
• Autocompletion for sample number (bd -> bd:1)
• Caching

Ideas

• New option custom_commands for tidal source to pass a list of commands that are not part of the Tidal library (e.g. {name: ..., abbr(optional): ..., description(optional): ...})
• Autocompletion for mini-notation (https://tidalcycles.org/docs/reference/mini_notation#mini-notation-table)
