I wrote customm autocomplete logic in my code. But this autocomplete only performs word-based autocomplete. Spaces stop autocomplete.
function completions(context: any) {
const word = context.matchBefore(/\w*/);
// Return null if the current context is not explicitly triggered and doesn't match a word
if (word && word.from === word.to && !context.explicit) {
return null;
}
// Provide completion options based on the fetched data
return {
from: word!.from,
options: [...functions, ...variables].map((option: any) => {
return {
label: option.label,
type: option.type,
apply:
option.type === 'calculations' || option.type === 'inputs'
? `{{${option.id},y,x}}` // if the option is a formula (calculations or input), add the braces
: `${option.insert}`, // if the option is a function, single braces and add the insert text
detail: option.type,
description: option.description,
};
}),
};
}
This is custom completions function. I know that the problem is caused by regex, but even if I updated the regex, it causes other problems.
There isn’t enough info given to answer your question, e.g.
I personally use the parseTree to get the nodeBefore to determine when/what to autocomplete
import { syntaxTree } from '@codemirror/language'
const nodeBefore = syntaxTree(context.state).resolveInner(context.pos, -1)

Thanks for answer.

This is full of the code for autocomplate feature.
- what other problems?
When i use diffrent experession for this const word = context.matchBefore(/\w*/);
, it autocomplete one time or it doesn’t work.
@AlexErrant How can i determine i am trying to check multiple words for the search? and not break on new spacE?
In this commit of my project I made spaces work for historical completions in my app’s search bar. Obviously YMMV, but a simple () => true
was enough for me. (Mostly because historical completions only make sense when from === 0
, i.e. when there are no other letters in the search bar.)
You can play with that search here. And here’s a screenshot of a search with a space working with completions.
