Minetest Lua API Completer for Vim

Hello! I'm a big fan of Minetest game and I'd like to make mods to it. But I haven't found any auto-completer for Minetest's Modding API, so I decided to write one for Vim by myself :)

Here's what I've got for now:

And this is usage of this plugin with Neocomplete:

This plugin uses some regexps to retrieve information about API functions from lua_api.txt file and provides completion based on it.

Note: This algorithm is not perfect, so the plugin would miss some functions (for example, if their definition in lua_api.txt has broken parentheses or ` sign in wrong place)

Also the plugin can complete only "global" functions, it can't complete methods, because it doesn't know anything about object's type.

Installation

Note: This plugin requires Vim >= 7.0 compiled with +lua feature. To check your version of vim, execute :echo version and to check if your vim supports Lua, execute :echo has('lua')

If you use Vundle, just add the following line in your .vimrc (or _vimrc if you're on Windows) between call vundle#begin() and call vundle#end() lines:
Plugin 'DraggonFantasy/vim-minetest-api'
then open Vim and do:
:PluginInstall

If you're using another plugin manager, please refer to it's documentation. If you don't use any - install one. Really. Vim Plugin managers are amazing thing :)

Next, you need to provide path to lua_api.txt to the plugin. To do this, add the following line to your .vimrc: let g:MinetestApiCompleter_api_location = "(PATH)"
Where (PATH) is path to your lua_api.txt.
For example:
let g:MinetestApiCompleter_api_location = "/opt/minetest/doc/lua_api.txt"

Using

Minetest Lua API Completer uses custom omnifunc, so to call a completion window you need to press <Ctrl-x> and then <Ctrl-o>. To move in completion list you can use <Ctrl-n> and <Ctrl-p> or arrow keys.
Or you can use some plugin, that will open an omni completion window as-you-type.
