Using Buck Build/Buckaroo with YCM

[redr...@gmail.com]

I'm trying to get into using Buckaroo and Buck Build for my C++ projects, because it seems like it really does lend itself to better quality of life for developers, because I can spend less of my time trying to find my dependencies and more of it actually writing code. I've only ran into one problem during this transition. I use NeoVim with YouCompleteMe, and I can't get completions for any libraries that I add outside of the C++ stdlib. I think this might be a product of the environment that is produced by buckaroo, but nonetheless I can't get autocompletions from anything that I add to the project. This is a serious issue because autocompleting was working absolutely fine with CMake, or any of the other tools I could have chosen for the same effect. If anyone has any idea how I can get autocompletions with YCM working, I'd be much appreciative.

There are instructions here: https://github.com/LoopPerfect/buckaroo/wiki/YouCompleteMe

Long story short, use Buck to generate compilation database and put it in your project folder.
