I’m trying to use LazyVim https://www.lazyvim.org/ to create and edit ansible playbooks and roles, but for the live of my I don’t understand how to enable ansible-language-server.

The installation of lazyvim went flawless and after starting nvim I used the command :Mason to install:

  • ansible-language-server
  • ansible-lint
  • yaml-language-server
  • yamllint

but still, when opening a task or playbook file in nvim, i don’t get any of that cool features like snippets and automatic syntax checking like I hoped.

Can anyone give me a hint how to enable those? Mason says the plugins are installed, is it only a problem of nvim not recognizing the filetype as ansible? Do I need to enable some plugins via .config/nvim/lua/plugins? I’m out of my element here, help would be much appreciated.

    that work, but since I don’t want to touch all my yaml files, I looked into the ftdetect file I already created and saw an error in my path definition.

    its working now. last thing i haven’t found out is, how to tell nvim to check syntax periodically and not only when saving. other then that it works pretty well. thank you
