:DBUI without any connections configured gets an error about vim-dadbod-ui

[kristijanhusak]

Ok i think your connections file is corrupted.
try deleting ~/.local/share/db_ui/connections.json and then try again.

[kristijanhusak]

I'll make sure that corrupted files are properly handled. Thanks for reporting.

[kristijanhusak]

I'm not able to reproduce it. Do you have the latest version?
Where it happens, vim/neovim? Which version?

[johnnypea]

I tried it with a clean install as well but it threw the same error.

NVIM v0.4.3

[kristijanhusak]

Do you have some configuration in your init.vim for vim-dadbod-ui?

[johnnypea]

No, I'm trying to debug it with very basic config:

" Plugins {{{
" Begin vim plug
call plug#begin(expand('~/.config/nvim/plugged'))

" Tools {{{
Plug 'kristijanhusak/vim-dadbod-ui'  | " DB UI support
Plug 'tpope/vim-dadbod'              | " DB support
" }}}

" End the plugin registration
call plug#end()
" }}}

I've no idea what could be wrong. Just tested it on stable NVIM 0.4.3, works fine:

open up file ~/.config/nvim/plugged/vim-dadbod-ui/autoload/db_ui.vim and add this on 5th line (first line of the function):

echom string(s:dbui_instance)

Give it a test, and give me output you got in cmd line.

That worked! Thank you for helping me out with this. Much appreciated.

Don't know how that happened.
