Deprecated Features in Nvim (Continued): 0.9 and Earlier

*vim.tbl_islist()* Use |vim.islist()| instead. OPTIONS • The "term_background" UI option |ui-ext-options| is deprecated and no longer populated. Background color detection is now performed in Lua by the Nvim core, not the TUI. TREESITTER • *LanguageTree:for_each_child()* Use |LanguageTree:children()| (non-recursive) instead. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DEPRECATED IN 0.9 *deprecated-0.9* API • *nvim_get_hl_by_name()* Use |nvim_get_hl()| instead. • *nvim_get_hl_by_id()* Use |nvim_get_hl()| instead. TREESITTER • *vim.treesitter.language.require_language()* Use |vim.treesitter.language.add()| instead. • *vim.treesitter.get_node_at_pos()* Use |vim.treesitter.get_node()| instead. • *vim.treesitter.get_node_at_cursor()* Use |vim.treesitter.get_node()| and |TSNode:type()| instead. • The following top level Treesitter functions have been moved: • *vim.treesitter.inspect_language()* -> |vim.treesitter.language.inspect()| • *vim.treesitter.get_query_files()* -> |vim.treesitter.query.get_files()| • *vim.treesitter.set_query()* -> |vim.treesitter.query.set()| • *vim.treesitter.query.set_query()* -> |vim.treesitter.query.set()| • *vim.treesitter.get_query()* -> |vim.treesitter.query.get()| • *vim.treesitter.query.get_query()* -> |vim.treesitter.query.get()| • *vim.treesitter.parse_query()* -> |vim.treesitter.query.parse()| • *vim.treesitter.query.parse_query()* -> |vim.treesitter.query.parse()| • *vim.treesitter.add_predicate()* -> |vim.treesitter.query.add_predicate()| • *vim.treesitter.add_directive()* -> |vim.treesitter.query.add_directive()| • *vim.treesitter.list_predicates()* -> |vim.treesitter.query.list_predicates()| • *vim.treesitter.list_directives()* -> |vim.treesitter.query.list_directives()| • *vim.treesitter.query.get_range()* -> |vim.treesitter.get_range()| • *vim.treesitter.query.get_node_text()* -> |vim.treesitter.get_node_text()| LUA • *nvim_exec()* Use |nvim_exec2()| instead. • *vim.pretty_print()* Use |vim.print()| instead. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DEPRECATED IN 0.8 OR EARLIER API • *nvim_buf_clear_highlight()* Use |nvim_buf_clear_namespace()| instead. • *nvim_buf_set_virtual_text()* Use |nvim_buf_set_extmark()| instead. • *nvim_command_output()* Use |nvim_exec2()| instead. • *nvim_execute_lua()* Use |nvim_exec_lua()| instead. • *nvim_get_option_info()* Use |nvim_get_option_info2()| instead. COMMANDS • *:rv* *:rviminfo* Deprecated alias to |:rshada| command. • *:wv* *:wviminfo* Deprecated alias to |:wshada| command. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES • *$NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS* • Deprecated way to: • set the server name (use |--listen| or |serverstart()| instead) • get the server name (use |v:servername| instead) • detect a parent Nvim (use |$NVIM| instead) • Ignored if --listen is given. • Unset at startup (after |v:servername| is initialized). Can be explicitly provided to |terminal| and |jobstart()| by the "env" option. Example: >vim call jobstart(['foo'], { 'env': { 'NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS': v:servername } }) < EVENTS • *BufCreate* Use |BufAdd| instead. • *EncodingChanged* Never fired; 'encoding' is always "utf-8". • *FileEncoding* Never fired; equivalent to |EncodingChanged|. • *GUIEnter* Never fired; use |UIEnter| instead. • *GUIFailed* Never fired. KEYCODES • *<MouseDown>* Use <ScrollWheelUp> instead. • *<MouseUp>* Use <ScrollWheelDown> instead. HIGHLIGHTS • *hl-VertSplit* Use |hl-WinSeparator| instead. LSP DIAGNOSTICS For each of the functions below, use the corresponding function in |vim.diagnostic| instead (unless otherwise noted). For example, use |vim.diagnostic.get()| instead of |vim.lsp.diagnostic.get()|. • *vim.lsp.diagnostic.clear()* Use |vim.diagnostic.hide()| instead. • *vim.lsp.diagnostic.disable()* Use |vim.diagnostic.enable()| instead.

This section details deprecated features in Nvim versions 0.9 and earlier. For version 0.10, it covers Lua functions (vim.tbl_islist), UI options (term_background), and Treesitter functions. For version 0.9, it lists deprecated API functions (e.g., `nvim_get_hl_by_name()`) and Treesitter functions, including moved functions now under `vim.treesitter.query`. Also for 0.9 deprecated are some Lua functions. For version 0.8 and earlier, it lists deprecated API functions (e.g., `nvim_buf_clear_highlight()`), commands (:rv, :wv), environment variables ($NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS), events (BufCreate, EncodingChanged), keycodes (<MouseDown>, <MouseUp>), highlights (hl-VertSplit), and LSP diagnostics functions (now replaced by `vim.diagnostic` functions).
