5. Completion *ale-completion*
5. Language Server Protocol Support *ale-lsp*
ALE offers some limited support for automatic completion of code while you
type. Completion is only supported via Language Server Protocol servers which
ALE can connect to for linting, which can offer good built-in support for
suggesting completion information. ALE will only suggest symbols for
completion for LSP linters that are enabled.
ALE offers some support for integrating with Language Server Protocol (LSP)
servers. LSP linters can be used in combination with any other linter, and
will automatically connect to LSP servers when needed. ALE also supports
`tsserver` for TypeScript, which uses a different but very similar protocol.
ALE supports the following LSP/tsserver features.
1. Diagnostics/linting - Enabled via selecting linters as usual.
2. Completion (Only for tsserver)
3. Go to definition

5.1 Completion *ale-completion*
NOTE: At the moment, only `tsserver` for TypeScript code is supported for
completion.
ALE offers limited support for automatic completion of code while you type.
Completion is only supported while a least one LSP linter is enabled. ALE
will only suggest symbols provided by the LSP servers.
Suggestions will be made while you type after completion is enabled.
Completion can be enabled by setting |g:ale_completion_enabled| to `1`. The
delay for completion can be configured with |g:ale_completion_delay|. ALE will

5.2 Go To Definition *ale-go-to-definition*
ALE supports jumping to the files and locations where symbols are defined
through any enabled LSP linters. The locations ALE will jump to depend on the
information returned by LSP servers. The following commands are supported:
|ALEGoToDefinition| - Open the definition of the symbol under the cursor.
|ALEGoToDefinitionInTab| - The same, but for opening the file in a new tab.

See |ale-fix| for more information.
ALEGoToDefinition *ALEGoToDefinition*
Jump to the definition of a symbol under the cursor using the enabled LSP
linters for the buffer. ALE will jump to a definition if an LSP server
provides a location to jump to. Otherwise, ALE will do nothing.
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_go_to_definition)` is defined for this command.
ALEGoToDefinitionInTab *ALEGoToDefinitionInTab*
The same as |ALEGoToDefinition|, but opens results in a new tab.
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_go_to_definition_in_tab)` is defined for this
command.
