I'm trying to use the jedi-vim plugin for Python autocompletion but I can't get it to work.
I have Vim 7.3, and here's what I did:
1- clone the code from
git clone http://github.com/davidhalter/jedi-vim path/to/bundles/jedi-vim
2- copy jedi-vim/plugin/jedi.vim
to ~/.vim/plugin/
3- copy jedi-vim/doc/jedi-vim.txt
to ~/.vim/doc/
Now when I open vim, enter the insert mode and type
import wave
wave.
nothing happens, though the doc specify Autocompletion is also triggered by typing a period in insert mode
, and if I try <Ctrl-Space>
I get the following error
E29: No inserted text yet
Press ENTER or type command to continue
I checked :map
and it seems that <Ctrl-Space>
is not used:
n [m *@:call <SNR>21_Python_jump('?^\s*\(class\|def\)')<CR>
n [[ *@:call <SNR>21_Python_jump('?^\(class\|def\)')<CR>
n ]m *@:call <SNR>21_Python_jump('/^\s*\(class\|def\)')<CR>
n ]] *@:call <SNR>21_Python_jump('/^\(class\|def\)')<CR>
n gx <Plug>NetrwBrowseX
n <Plug>NetrwBrowseX * :call netrw#NetrwBrowseX(expand("<cWORD>"),0)<CR>
Since I got an error using <Ctrl-Space>
, I guess it must do something, right? Why can't I see it with :map
?
What am I missing?

I updated Vim to 7.4 and installed vim-jedi
using pathogen
as described in the doc:
1- install jedi
2- install pathogen
3- add execute pathogen#infect()
in my ~/.vimrc
4- clone git repository in ~/.vim/bundle/
I create a new file, and I still have no autocompletion. Eg:
import numpy as np
np.
and control+space in insert mode returns:
-- Omni completion (^O^N^P) Pattern not found
Is there any omni completion
plugin conflicting? I haven't installed such plugin...
Should I had anything else to my ~/.vimrc
file?
I installed jedi-vim
with pathogen, and it now works.
EDIT: to reply to the comments below: I get jedi-vim to work by reinstalling it using pathogen instead of installing it from source. This fixed my issue, so I considered it to be an answer.
