Coc.nvim: How to uninstall extensions?

[kkoomen]

I have installed coc-highlight by providing the coc-highlight in my vimrc using the g:coc_global_extensions variable.

I have decided that I want to uninstall this plugin, but I can't uninstall this no matter what. The highlighting is still showing up. I did :CocUninstall coc-highlight, removed all its mappings in my vimrc, I removed ~/.config/coc and ~/.vim/plugged/coc.nvim and re-installed, but nothing works.

Any idea?

Check :CocList extensions, the highlights could comes from langauge server

[kkoomen]

Can you not close an issue immediately? I already tried checking :CocList extensions and they list everything but not coc-highlight.

[chemzqm]

It means coc-highlight was removed.

It means coc-highlight was removed.

[kkoomen]

Yes.... and the highlighting still appears in my Vim, so how do I fix this?

[chemzqm]

Check your configuration file

[kkoomen]

For what? Can you be more specific?

[chemzqm]

You have autocmd like autocmd CursorHold * silent! call CocActionAsync('highlight')

If you can't figure out such kind of issue yourself, consider use other tools, we don't work for you.

Are you even reading my issue? I already mentioned that I removed everything including corresponding mappings.

[...] we don't work for you.

I never said you did, but you're being rude at people who ask for help because something does not work as expected with _your_ plugin.

Apparently the uninstall process does not work as expected. Maybe you should be more receptive to feedback instead of being harsh.

It can't be coc highlight the words since you have uninstall coc-highlight and remove the config relative to highlight of coc. If you think it is coc's issue please reproduce with minimum vimrc.

1. You did :CocUninstall coc-highlight, this will remove highlight extension.
2. :CocList extensions did not contains coc-highlight, this means the extension has already removed.

But you still have highlight, this is not expected. Can you provide :CocInfo and vimrc that we can reproduce this issue?

[kkoomen]

Can you provide :CocInfo [...]

One of the extensions may be doing extra highlighting. Does coc.nvim from scratch, without any extensions, and with all extensions removed (simply nuke .config/coc) "highlights"?

I still ignore what highlighting you're talking about, CSS colors?

[oblitum]

Check this for example: https://github.com/neoclide/coc-css/issues/3.

And this:

https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim/blob/c9cc96e254323f24685ad6df3f0ade632cbac717/data/schema.json#L784-L788

Also notice the first answer by @chemzqm was:

Check :CocList extensions, the highlights could comes _from langauge server_

Emphasis mine.

[kkoomen]

Yes, I confirm that its pure css, other languages are not being highlighted.

"coc.preferences.colorSupport": false fixed it, thanks.

[chemzqm]

If you don't have CocAction('highlight') with autocmd, the highlight won't work at all.
So it's problem of your vim's configuration, provide your minimal vimrc when you want to report bug.
