Install

Some languages require additional setup, and some languages may have no completion support at all.

Check the README.org in that language's module for details.

Configure

Auto-completion

By default, I've disabled auto-completion. This is my preference. I prefer to invoke company when I need it by calling company-complete manually (typically, bound to C-SPC in insert mode). However, some may not share my preference.

To enable auto-completion you must:

  1. Load company,
  2. and change company-idle-delay to a non-nil float (the default is 0.5)

For example:

(require 'company)
(setq company-idle-delay 0.2
      company-minimum-prefix-length 3)

Troubleshooting

If completion isn't working for you, please consider the following before posting a bug report:

  • If what you are expecting is popup-as-you-type completion (which is disabled by default), see the "Configure > Auto-completion" section above, which will instruct you on how to enable this.
  • Some languages don't have any auto-completion support at all.
