Execute command after cmp.show

[aidancz]

namely, this setup does not work:

require("blink.cmp").setup({
	completion = {
		menu = {
			auto_show = false,
		},
		list = {
			selection = "auto_insert",
		},
	},
	keymap = {
		preset = "none",
		["<down>"] = {
			function(cmp)
				cmp.show()
				cmp.select_next()
			end,
		},
	},
})

I have this ugly hack as a workaround..

		["<down>"] = {
			function(cmp)
				cmp.show()
				vim.defer_fn(function()
					cmp.select_next()
				end, 1)
			end,
		},

On main, you can now do cmp.show({ callback = function() cmp.select_next() end })

Thank you for the prompt fix! However, this doesn't seem to work.

with this setup:

require("blink.cmp").setup({
	completion = {
		menu = {
			auto_show = false,
		},
		list = {
			selection = "auto_insert",
		},
	},
	keymap = {
		preset = "none",
		["<down>"] = {
			function(cmp)
				cmp.show({
					callback = function()
						vim.print(cmp.is_visible())
						cmp.select_next()
					end,
				})
			end,
		},
	},
})

I still can't show the menu and immediately select the first candidate when I press the <down> key for the first time.

since when the callback function is invoked, cmp.is_visible() will return false

Is there a more general way to connect two commands?

I want to chain cancel and show too

should I use require('blink.cmp.completion.list').undo_preview() in my config?

This one was a bit tricky because the internals use events for most communication, but I've worked out a semi hacky solution that seems to work well. I've also added callbacks to .cancel and .hide
