Any examples of lsp-mode and Meow?

[zetashift]

I looked around for a bit and I was wondering if there are any configs out there that show meow working with lsp-mode. Preferably using the space as the leader key, and g to do some go-to actions.

As I'm a beginner with Meow I'm not entirely sure how to do the mappings only while lsp-mode is active.

Hey, here is my configuration about lsp-mode. I didn't remap actually, just use SPC c l.

https://github.com/DogLooksGood/meomacs/blob/master/programming.org#lsp-mode

The default leader dispatch is mode-specific-map. To have SPC l for C-c l, you can add this

(setq meow-keypad-leader-dispatch "C-c")

[zetashift]

Oh very nice! Thank you :D!

[zetashift]

Where do I add the (setq meow-keypad-leader-dispatch "C-c") part? I added it in the :config of my use-package meow form, but pressing SPC l for example doesn't bring up lsp keybindings or SPC b b doesn't list my buffers in perspective.el

[DogLooksGood]

I think you can add it anywhere you want. It's just an variable. Are you using Doom Emacs?
If you are using Doom Emacs, you probably want to set it to doom-leader-map.

I'm having trouble as well with writing good elisp and my keybindings.

For global operations using the leader key, I currently have the following elisp:

  (meow-leader-define-key
   ;; SPC j/k will run the original command in MOTION state.
   '("j" . "H-j")
   '("k" . "H-k")
   '("fs" . save-buffer)
   '("ff" . find-file)
   '("bb" . switch-to-buffer)
   '("bs" . scratch-buffer)
   '("bd" . kill-this-buffer)
   '("wv" . split-window-vertically)
   '("ws" . split-window-horizontally)
   '("ww" . next-window-any-frame)
   '("wq" . delete-window)
   '("eb" . eval-buffer)
   '("qr" . restart-emacs)
;; etc

But how do I make this more elegant, and make it work with which-key? Define a keymap? but then I don't know how to use it with which-key still :(.

[zetashift]

So for example I have SPC f s for save-buffer and SPC f f for find-file.
If I press "SPC", which-key pops up and guides me with f - prefix. I would like to replace that "prefix" label with "file"

which-key has commands for that:

(which-key-add-keymap-based-replacements some-map
  "b" '("bar-prefix" . (keymap)))

And some others. But I don't really know how to use them together with meow-leader-define-key

[DogLooksGood]

meow can read those built-in keymap names because they have alias name.

In emacs source code, there's something like this. So meow will know the keymap's name.

(defalias 'kmacro-keymap kmacro-keymap)

But in which-key, keymap names are not bound to keymap themselves, it's bound to the key binding. So some settings won't work.

[zetashift]

So does that mean there is no way for me to replace those +prefixlabels for f or b keymaps?
Sorry for the dumb questions, usage wise, I fixed the LSP problems and I'm having a blast with meow! Just have this little wish to neatly label everything and not have +prefix littered all over.

[DogLooksGood]

Only if you name these keymap with aliases manually, like how Emacs built-in keymaps are handled. I haven't found a way to workaround this yet.

If we can rebuild the KEYPAD state with real key translation, then it's possible.

[zetashift]

So I'd have to do something like

(defalias 'filekeymap file)?

Anyhow thank you for your time!
