Support `:make` commands

[0xDagal]

I really like the idea behind BSP and thought of writing a plugin for it when I stumble on your own. As I like you think that "Neovim is the only way!", I tend to prefer using tools that kind of make me feel that I am using VIm "as is" so I would like to use :make to put all my compilation / tests results inside a quickfix list.

To support it, it would need to support the :h errorformat and automatically map commands to it. Something like :make test would run tests by using BSP

In my research, I found this go project https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/reviewdog/errorformat/ that permits to have the right :h errorformat. What do you think ?

Of course if are willing to implement it and need any help I would be glad to help you

I thought about this idea too but concentrated on the basic bsp Implementation.

That said I am not sure if I want this functionality in this plugin directly, but I am happy to refactor the code so it's easier to make a receipt for it and would also be glad to accept an PR into the README.md with this receipt.

The idea was to have this plugin with an API so that others can create extension plugins for it, if they like something specific.

It could be done as you proposed but it would be more work for parsing, because the BSP provides Diagnostics already in a structured form, so there is no need to use errorformat it would be good just to skip this step if makeprg is set to BSP. I am also not sure if it's possible to set makeprg to some Lua function, because then the integration would be easy I guess.

So overall I am not sure how the solution would look like in the end but I am happy to work it out with you :)

I just asked in the core developer channel for neovim, there is currently no way to call a lua function from makeprg, the suggestion was just to define a custom command :Make. I guess this is the simplest way and would be already possible to implement.

Oh yes cool, I'm not proficient in LUA as I only use it to configure the software that I use in a messy way, but I'll try to help you on that, btw if you have any kind of style guide or recommendation to not mess with your code and make "reviewable" code, it could help me

Nah, I just also learning myself Lua and probably there are also better ways I could write it myself. Just come up with something, we can refactor later or discuss changes in the PR.
