bug: LSP doesn't resolve snacks types

[zeromask1337]

Did you check docs and existing issues?

• I have read all the snacks.nvim docs
• I have updated the plugin to the latest version before submitting this issue
• I have searched the existing issues of snacks.nvim
• I have searched the existing issues of plugins related to this issue

Neovim version (nvim -v)

0.10.2

Operating system/version

MacOs 14.6.1

Describe the bug

I use default config from docs

return {
  'folke/snacks.nvim',
  priority = 1000,
  lazy = false,
  ---@type snacks.Config
  opts = {
    -- your configuration comes here
    -- or leave it empty to use the default settings
    -- refer to the configuration section below
    bigfile = { enabled = true },
  },
}

Even after nvim restart snacks types are not resolved, and thus can't be used. Checkhealth shows everything is ok.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Install snacks.nvim in lua/custom/plugins folder

Expected Behavior

1. Types are resolved by LSP
2. No warning is shown

Repro

vim.env.LAZY_STDPATH = '.repro'

load(vim.fn.system 'curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/folke/lazy.nvim/main/bootstrap.lua')()

require('lazy.minit').repro {
    spec = {
        {

                highlight = { 
                    enable = true, 
                    -- Some languages depend on vim's regex highlighting system (such as Ruby) for indent rules.
                    -- If you are experiencing weird indenting issues, add the language to
                    -- the list of additional_vim_regex_highlighting and disabled languages for indent.
                    additional_vim_regex_highlighting = { 'ruby' },

                indent = { enable = true, disable = { 'ruby' } }
            },

    }

-- Main LSP Configuration
require("mason").setup({
    ensure_installed = {"stylua"}, -- Add your preferred language servers here

require("mason-lspconfig").setup({
    ensure_installed = {"lua_ls"}, -- Add your preferred language servers here

Please don't open issues for user questions. check the lazydev docs if you're using that

EDIT checkout the other answer for a better way: #443 (comment)

fwiw I also started from kickstart.nvim and solved this by configuring lazydev to load definitions from the lazy.nvim's plugin folder:

this is my current config:

  {
    -- `lazydev` configures Lua LSP for your Neovim config, runtime and plugins
    -- used for completion, annotations and signatures of Neovim apis
    'folke/lazydev.nvim',
    ft = 'lua',
    opts = {
      library = {
        -- Load luvit types when the `vim.uv` word is found
        { path = '${3rd}/luv/library', words = { 'vim%.uv' } },
        vim.fn.stdpath 'data' .. '/lazy',                        -- I added this line
      },
    },
  },

Add the following lines at the top of the file where you intend to use snacks types:

---@module 'snacks'

---@type snacks.Config
local config = {}

If you want to make snacks types globally accessible using lazydev, refer to LazyVim#lazydevnvim:

{
  'folke/lazydev.nvim',
  ft = 'lua',
  cmd = 'LazyDev',
  opts = {
    library = {
      { path = '${3rd}/luv/library', words = { 'vim%.uv' } },
      { path = 'snacks.nvim', words = { 'Snacks' } },
    },
  },
}
