Disabling auto imports on completion

[vanaigr]

Currently there seems to be no option to exclude module exports from completion list, or stop the plugin from automatically adding missing imports on such completion.

E.g. for the project below, completing value in file2.js would automatically add value to the import statement on line 1, which may be unwanted.

file1.js

var value = 5
var otherValue = 6

export default value
export { otherValue }

file2.js

import * as values from './file1.js'

package.json

{
    "name": "test",
    "type": "module",
    "version": "1.0.0",
    "main": "file2.js",
}

TypeScript server exposes an option to disable module exports, but providing it in tsserver_file_preferences in the plugin config doesn't work.

require("typescript-tools").setup {
  settings = {
    ...
    tsserver_file_preferences = {
      includeCompletionsForModuleExports = false,
      includeExternalModuleExports = false
    }
  }
}

The reason this has no effect on completions is that the plugin overrides these options when requesting completion information:

typescript-tools.nvim/lua/typescript-tools/protocol/text_document/completion/init.lua

Lines 58 to 69 in f8c2e0b

	request {
	command = c.CommandTypes.CompletionInfo,
	arguments = vim.tbl_extend("force", {
	file = vim.uri_to_fname(text_document.uri),
	triggerKind = context.triggerKind,
	triggerCharacter = vim.tbl_contains(c.CompletionsTriggerCharacter, trigger_character)
	and trigger_character
	or nil,
	includeExternalModuleExports = true,
	includeInsertTextCompletions = true,
	}, utils.convert_lsp_position_to_tsserver(params.position)),
	}

Note: the autoimport on completion is done here:

typescript-tools.nvim/lua/typescript-tools/protocol/text_document/completion/resolve.lua

Line 171 in f8c2e0b

additionalTextEdits = make_text_edits(details.codeActions),

commenting this line still shows the completion item but disables file changes.
