rainbow-delimiters.nvim integration is broken since 3.4.0 about indent-blankline.nvim

[lukas-reineke]

If you lazy load ibl after rainbow delimiters, and you create the highlight groups inside the ibl setup, rainbow delimiters will not have any highlighting set when it initializes. It falls back to the default, and the highlights won't match that of ibl.

You need to either, create the highlight groups first, before you load any plugins, or keep it as you have now, but load rainbow delimiters after ibl.

Using this minimal init.lua, I can't reproduce the problem.
Can you check if anything in your config might conflict?

The hook for scope highlight from extmark changed in #802, but I can't immediately see what could make the new one fail if the old one works.

local lazypath = "/tmp/lazy/lazy.nvim"
if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then
    vim.fn.system { "git", "clone", "--filter=blob:none", "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git", "--branch=stable", lazypath }
end
vim.opt.rtp:prepend(lazypath)
vim.opt.termguicolors = true

require("lazy").setup ({
    {
        "hiphish/rainbow-delimiters.nvim"
    },
    {
        "lukas-reineke/indent-blankline.nvim",
        main = "ibl",
        config = function()
            local highlight = {
                "RainbowRed",
                "RainbowYellow",
                "RainbowBlue",
                "RainbowOrange",
                "RainbowGreen",
                "RainbowViolet",
                "RainbowCyan",
            }
            local hooks = require "ibl.hooks"
            -- create the highlight groups in the highlight setup hook, so they are reset
            -- every time the colorscheme changes
            hooks.register(hooks.type.HIGHLIGHT_SETUP, function()
                vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "RainbowRed", { fg = "#E06C75" })
                vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "RainbowYellow", { fg = "#E5C07B" })
                vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "RainbowBlue", { fg = "#61AFEF" })
                vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "RainbowOrange", { fg = "#D19A66" })
                vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "RainbowGreen", { fg = "#98C379" })
                vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "RainbowViolet", { fg = "#C678DD" })
                vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "RainbowCyan", { fg = "#56B6C2" })
            end)

            vim.g.rainbow_delimiters = { highlight = highlight }
            require("ibl").setup { scope = { highlight = highlight } }

            hooks.register(hooks.type.SCOPE_HIGHLIGHT, hooks.builtin.scope_highlight_from_extmark)
        end
    },
    -- uncomment this if the problem is related to scope
    {
        "nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter",
        build = ":TSUpdate",
        config = function()
            require("nvim-treesitter.configs").setup {
                ensure_installed = { "rust" }, -- change this to the language you use
            }
        end,
    },
}, { root = "/tmp/lazy" })

Hmm. With the minimal init.lua, I can't reproduce the problem, either.

So it must be my own problem in my configuration. I'll try to find the confilict.

[tan-wei]

I think I find the method how to make it work. Both of them should be applied at the same time:

1. Disable lazy loading for ibl. Before changed, I use event = "VeryLazy" to make it lazy load (update: Changed it into BufEnter just the same with rainbow-delimiters.nvim is OK, does it mean rainbow-delimiters.nvim may conflict with ibl?)
2. set vim.g.rainbow_delimiters like the minimal init.lua in config file. Before changed, I set it in init function, which is set before config function is called

But I can't find why these steps work.

The issue should be closed. Thanks @lukas-reineke .

[tan-wei]

Got it. Lazy load could cause some issues like this. Thanks for your reply.
