Consecutive keyword not proposed without space

[msujew]

It's not a bug, it's a feature, see:

langium/packages/langium/src/lsp/completion/completion-provider.ts

Lines 311 to 317 in bef6560

	protected performNextTokenCompletion(document: LangiumDocument, text: string, _offset: number, _end: number): boolean {
	// This regex returns false if the text ends with a letter.
	// We don't want to complete new text immediately after a keyword, ID etc.
	// We only care about the last character in the text, so we use $ here.
	// The \P{L} used here is a Unicode category that matches any character that is not a letter
	return /\P{L}$/u.test(text);
	}

i will check

i wonder if we can have access to both the current and following token.
thus we can decide if we need a space between two alphanumeric things or not.
or should this be done in completionFor ?

[cdietrich]

this is also hard to achieve. backtrackToAnyToken wont give a whitespace token

something like

    protected override async completionFor(context: CompletionContext, next: NextFeature<GrammarAST.AbstractElement>, acceptor: CompletionAcceptor): Promise<void> {
        const { nextTokenStart, previousTokenStart, previousTokenEnd } = this.backtrackToAnyToken(context.textDocument.getText(), context.tokenEndOffset)
        if (previousTokenEnd === nextTokenStart) {
            const x = context.textDocument.getText().slice(previousTokenStart, previousTokenEnd)
            if (HelloWorldCompletionProvider.AllKeywords.has(x)) {
                if (GrammarAST.isKeyword(next.feature)) {
                    const kw = next.feature.value
                    if (/^[a-z0-9]+$/i.test(kw.charAt(0))) {
                        return;
                    }
                } else {
                    return;
                }
            }
        }
        
        await super.completionFor(context, next, acceptor)
    }

seems to work

pot. workaround: adjust keyword completion to add the :
