When integrating Coc.nvim into AstroNvim, I encountered issues with auto-completion — specifically the <CR> key not confirming completion items and the absence of expected smart formatting behavior.
After debugging, I discovered that nvim-autopairs was intercepting the <CR> mapping, which conflicted with Coc’s built-in completion and formatting logic. Since Coc already provides its own smart enter behavior and auto-pair handling, the most effective fix was to disable nvim-autopairs when using Coc.
This patch does the following:
Disables the nvim-autopairs plugin to prevent <CR> mapping conflicts
Adds default insert mode mappings for:
<CR> to confirm completion
<Tab> / <S-Tab> to navigate the popup menu
<C-Space> to manually trigger completion
This ensures a smoother and expected user experience when using Coc for autocompletion inside AstroNvim.
Tested with various filetypes and behaves as expected.
Let me know if you'd prefer this be added as a community plugin override instead.
Does this PR follow the [Contribution Guidelines](development guidelines)? Following is a partial checklist:
Proper conventional commit scoping:
If you are adding a new plugin, the scope would be the name of the category it is being added into. ex. feat(utility): added noice.nvim plugin
If you are modifying a pre-existing plugin or pack, the scope would be the name of the plugin folder. ex. fix(noice-nvim): fix LSP handler error
Pull request title has the appropriate conventional commit type and scope where the scope is the name of the pre-existing directory in the project as described above
README is properly formatted and uses fenced in links with <url> unless they are inside a [title](url)
Entry returns a single plugin spec with the new plugin as the only top level spec (not applicable for recipes or packs).
Proper usage of opts table rather than setting things up with the config function.
Proper usage of specs table for all specs that are not dependencies of a given plugin (not applicable for recipes or packs).
