Requirements

Requires a server for inference vim with python3 support. An example of server can be ollama (for local inference), or you can also use remote models (e.g., groq).

Configuration

The default model is deepseek-coder:6.7b-instruct, you can change it by editing the project-wise file: .codeassistant_config.json, by changing the model_name value. Also, to change the server address, simply edit the url field. The config file is created the first time you open vim in a directory.

Retrieval Aumented Generation

You can enable RAG by switching the rag field in the config file, and choosing an appropriate rag_model served with ollama.

Install with vim-plug

First, install ollama from https://ollama.com/, then, install the plugin with:

Plug 'leocus/codeassistant.vim'

Disclaimer

This plugin uses pretrained LLMs to generate code. Beware of the limitations of LLMs and of possible bugs in the plugin (which are quite likely :) ). If you have any suggestion for improving this plugin or to report any bug, please open an issue! :)

TODO

• [x] Add the possibility to have an authentication token
• [ ] Add a refactor mode
