Configuration

You can customize the plugin by passing options to the setup function:

require('codepartner').setup({
  api_key = 'your_api_key_here',
  server_url = 'http://your_server_url:port'
  auto_start_server = true  -- Set to false if you want to start the server manually

Server Management

By default, the server will start automatically when you open Neovim. You can manage the server using the following commands:

To start the server manually:

To stop the server:

:StopCodePartner()

The server runs as a background process. You can find its logs in the plugin's server directory (codepartner_server.log).
