Subject: bug#45272: GNOME Builder: Global search, autocompletion, documentation don't work
Date: Wed, 16 Dec 2020 17:24:35 +0000
Various features described in GNOME Builder documentation (https://builder.readthedocs.io/en/latest/exploring.html) don't seem to work, even though their corresponding extensions are enabled (in Settings → Extensions).

So far, I've only identified Global search, autocompletion, documentation on hover. I tried these in Python code only.

I assumed these features are failing for the same reason, so I'm reporting them together.


## Steps to reproduce: Search for a function in your Python project

1. Start GNOME Builder
2. Click on the "Select a Folder..." button
3. Locate the folder of your project and click "Open"
4. Press Ctrl + . to focus the search box
5. Start typing the name of a function you know is defined in the project source code

## Expected result

You see the function suggested in the results.

## Unexpected result

The suggested results don't include the function. Searching only seems to suggest filenames that include your search terms; definitions in the source code, like classes and functions, seem to be excluded.



## Steps to reproduce: Autocompletion in a Python file

1. Open a Python file
2. Type "Hello". (that's hello in double quotes, followed by a dot)

## Expected result

A list of methods for string objects is displayed after you type the dot.

## Unexpected result

The list is not displayed at all.



## Steps to reproduce: Documentation on hovering over a Python method

1. Open a Python file
2. Type "Hello {}".format("World")
3. Hover over the "format" method or place the caret on it and press F2

## Expected result

A box appears over the method displaying its documentation.

## Unexpected result

The box is not displayed at all.



## System information

guix 08d8c2d

## Additional information

I see the following output when I start gnome-builder from a terminal:
