languages/beancount: init

[gmvar]

Create the vim.languages.beancount module using bean-format and beancount-language-server.

Current Issues

1. Formatting Behavior:

   • The beancount-language-server currently lacks an option to disable formatting. This results in documents being automatically formatted, even when the setting vim.languages.beancount.format.enable is set to false.
   • I have opened an issue on the project's GitHub repository requesting the addition of a toggle for this behavior. Until this feature is implemented, users will experience automatic formatting regardless of their preferences. GitHub Issue #650.

2. Formatting Package Installation:

   • The vim.languages.beancount.format.enable setting does not install the necessary formatting package, which is bean-format. This package is included in pkgs.beancount.
   • The beancount-language-server also depends on pkgs.beancount, leading to a decision point regarding installation options. I would appreciate guidance on the preferred approach:
     1. Install pkgs.beancount to vim.extraPackages: This would ensure that the formatting package is available without requiring additional user setup.
     2. User-Managed PATH: Alternatively, users could be instructed to ensure that bean-format is available in their system PATH, similar to the current setup for the language server.

Sanity Checking

• I have updated the changelog as per my changes
• I have tested, and self-reviewed my code
• My changes fit guidelines found in hacking nvf
• Style and consistency
  • I ran Alejandra to format my code (nix fmt)
  • My code conforms to the editorconfig configuration of the project
  • My changes are consistent with the rest of the codebase
• If new changes are particularly complex:
  • My code includes comments in particularly complex areas
  • I have added a section in the manual
  • (For breaking changes) I have included a migration guide
• Package(s) built:
  • .#nix (default package)
  • .#maximal
  • .#docs-html (manual, must build)
  • .#docs-linkcheck (optional, please build if adding links)
• Tested on platform(s)
  • x86_64-linux
  • aarch64-linux
