purpose

I try your plugin with fail at first try. I found useful information from vim-lsp. So I try it , and It works perfect. Please add more instruction about how to setup language server and configure.

language server

java

• Install Eclipse JDT Language Server

mkdir -p ~/lsp/eclipse.jdt.ls
cd ~/lsp/eclipse.jdt.ls
curl -L https://download.eclipse.org/jdtls/milestones/0.35.0/jdt-language-server-0.35.0-201903142358.tar.gz -O
tar xf jdt-language-server-0.35.0-201903142358.tar.gz

• Create executable jdtls in path (e.g., /usr/local/bin/jdtls), with content

#!/usr/bin/env sh

server="/root/lsp"

java \
    -Declipse.application=org.eclipse.jdt.ls.core.id1 \
    -Dosgi.bundles.defaultStartLevel=4 \
    -Declipse.product=org.eclipse.jdt.ls.core.product \
    -noverify \
    -Xms1G \
    -jar $server/eclipse.jdt.ls/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.*.jar \
    -configuration $server/eclipse.jdt.ls/config_linux/ \
    "$@"

• Add to your vim config:

let g:LanguageClient_serverCommands = {
    \ 'java': ['/usr/local/bin/jdtls', '-data', getcwd()],
    \ }

php

• install intelephense

npm -g install intelephense

• add to your bashrc

let g:LanguageClient_serverCommands = {
\ 'php': ['node', '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/intelephense/lib/intelephense.js', '--stdio'],
    \ }

python

• install python language server

pip install python-language-server

• add to your bashrc

let g:LanguageClient_serverCommands = {
\ 'python': ['pyls'],
    \ }

lua

apt install  lua5.3-dev luarocks
luarocks install --server=http://luarocks.org/dev lua-lsp

• add to config

let g:LanguageClient_serverCommands = {

    \ }

Sorry for the confusion.

The concern with proposed approach is that those instructions to install language servers are very hard to be comprehensive and kept up to date. e.g., how to keep the java language server version number up to date, and what if user OS don't apt support.

That's why I prefer the end user would go the language server specific page to following the corresponding install steps, as linked in https://github.com/autozimu/LanguageClient-neovim#language-servers

It's welcome to improve if redirection is not clear enough.
