Disable mini.indentscope in vim.lsp.buf.hover floating window

[FrancescoLuzzi]

Hi everyone,
I was able to disable indentscope for some filetypes with:

    local disabled_filetypes = { 'NvimTree', 'alpha', 'help' }
    vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('FileType', {
      group = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup('MiniIndentScopeDisable', { clear = true }),
      callback = function(opts)
        local ftype = vim.bo[opts.buf].filetype
        if vim.tbl_contains(disabled_filetypes, ftype) then
          vim.b[opts.buf].miniindentscope_disable = true
        end
      end,
    })

How would you go disabling indentscope inside the floating window opened by vim.lsp.buf.hover?
I've tried attaching an autocmd to WinNew (following this comment) I just can't figure it out 😅

Thanks!

Good question. Unfortunately, I also can't see a reliable way to specifically identify a buffer used in vim.lsp.buf.hover().

Instead I can suggest a more general criteria which should fit nicely in what you're trying to achieve: disable 'mini.indentscope' in any "helper" buffer (i.e. with 'buftype' not equal to '') in floating window (i.e. with relative config field not equal to ''). Here is how I'd go about implementing it:

local disable_in_helper_floats = function(opts)
  if vim.bo[opts.buf].buftype == '' then return end
  if vim.api.nvim_win_get_config(0).relative == '' then return end
  vim.b[opts.buf].miniindentscope_disable = true
end
local augroup = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup('MiniIndentScopeDisable', { clear = true })
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('BufWinEnter', { group = augroup, callback = disable_in_helper_floats })

Worked like a charm, thank you 🚀
