How can I disable completion in an Oil buffer

[windowsrefund]

Curious to know if anyone can reproduce this? Seems like this used to not be a problem so maybe something has changed.

Still not sure why this suddenly came about but this gets it done for the time being

-- documentation: https://cmp.saghen.dev/
return {
  "saghen/blink.cmp",
  opts = {
    sources = {
      default = function()
        if vim.bo.filetype == "oil" then
          return {}
        else
          return { "lsp", "path", "snippets", "buffer" }
        end
      end,
    },
  },
}

@windowsrefund Yes, that solution works, but they could try this alternative:

opts = {
  enabled = function()
      -- If in the cmdline, enable completion regardless of filetype
      if vim.fn.getcmdtype() ~= "" then
          return true
      end
  
      -- Disable completion if the current buffer is `oil`
      return not vim.tbl_contains({ "oil" }, vim.bo.filetype)
  end,
}

This would allow completion to work normally in other contexts while remaining disabled in oil.

A more elegant solution if you prefer not to alter your blink configuration is to benefit from the filetype plugin.

Put this line in after/ftplugin/oil.lua

vim.b.completion = false

Both are so much cleaner than my solution. Thank you both.
