Problem
I have nvim config, looking like this (which I believe is common):
When I do
nvim init.lua
LSP client starts, but in single_file_mode. If I do:LspStop
and then:LspStart lua
it doesn't start, because it can't find the root directory.Proposed solution
If parent directory contains
lua/
directory, parent should be the root directory, notparent .. "lua/"
.What happens
This way the root directory for
init.lua
isnvim/
and forlua/file.lua
isnvim/
as well, instead of what happens now (can't find root directory forinit.lua
and forlua/file.lua
root directory isnvim/lua/
)
