Add a bridge between the embedded nvim and another nvim instance #569

I did some experimentations (for debugging purposes) going in the same direction. Perhaps this extension could be enhanced to take |
Good idea!
Unfortunately, that won't work, because the method that is currently used is actually doing almost exactly what you described. The difference is that this extension spawns the
Actually, I'm going through the sources and just now discovered that this extension recognises |
So, does that mean that we could connect to a NeoVim instance running on a tcp port (with something like Right now I'm trying to fully "containerize" my neovim setup but I still need to run an instance on WSL2 for things like VS Code and Azure Data Studio. But if I could connect through tcp I could use Docker's neovim instance instead and keep all my NeoVim setup on containers. Is it currently possible? |
I would use it for editing over ssh, since vscode ssh extension has many issues |
There is a new neovim ui session api which could be used here, to attach to buffers remotely. |
This is more a feature request than an issue.
If I understand correctly, the editing takes place in the embedded neovim instance's buffers which are invisible and the windows in vscode are just coupled to those buffer in such a way as to make it appear the editing taking place in that window. I'd like to have the ability to see that buffer in its raw, nvim state. This would mostly be for development and troubleshooting.
A similar thing, but to different ends, would let you switch between editing the vscode window with focus over to editing it in another instance of nvim, (gui or terminal). That instance could have it own plugins (which won't have to be constrained to only those plug-ins that are compatible with vscode). Perhaps this "bridging" could use the mechanism of your invisible buffer rather than a strictly file system based one.
