Description
Describe the bug
Highlight on yank autocommand (with vim.highlight.on_yank) doesn't work when yanking from the middle of the word in javascript and typescript files.
When yanking from the start of the word - it works as expected
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Save minimal reproducible config below
- Run
NVIM_APPNAME=nvim-debug-yank nvim -u minimal.lua file.js - Move cursor to the middle of the word (where refactor highlight is present)
- Press
yaw
Minimal reproducible config
local pack_path = vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/site/pack"
local function install_plugin(slug)
local plugin_name = vim.fs.basename(slug)
local plugin_path =
vim.fs.joinpath(pack_path, plugin_name, "opt", plugin_name)
if vim.fn.isdirectory(plugin_path) == 0 then
vim
.system({
"git",
"clone",
"https://github.com/" .. slug .. ".git",
plugin_path,
})
:wait()
end
vim.cmd.packadd(plugin_name)
end
install_plugin("nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter")
install_plugin("nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-refactor")
require("nvim-treesitter.configs").setup({
ensure_installed = { "javascript" },
sync_install = true,
highlight = { enable = true },
refactor = {
highlight_definitions = { enable = true },
highlight_current_scope = { enable = true },
},
})
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("TextYankPost", {
group = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup("Highlight on yank", {}),
pattern = "*",
callback = function()
vim.highlight.on_yank()
end,
})yank11-2025-04-05_14.27.22.mp4
Expected behavior
Highlight on yank works properly, as in 0.10:
