Docs for `click` somewhat confusing

[James Sully]

Hi, I wasn't quite sure how to get click working.
From reading the readme, it wasn't clear to me

• Whether click can work with the "Native method" listed in examples, using winbar, or else installing other plugins are required.
• If it is possible without plugins, how to do that.

I experimented with enabling click in setup, and using the native method:

use {
    'SmiteshP/nvim-navic',
    requires = "neovim/nvim-lspconfig",
    config = function()
        require 'nvim-navic'.setup {
	    click = true,
        }
    end
}

-- ...

local on_attach = function(client, bufnr)
    if client.server_capabilities.documentSymbolProvider then
        require('nvim-navic').attach(client, bufnr)
        vim.o.winbar = "%{%v:lua.require'nvim-navic'.get_location()%}"
    end

-- ...

But clicking didn't seem to work.

If you could clear these questions up for me, I'd be happy to submit a docs PR.

Make sure that the terminal emulator you are using supports click
Or if there is a option to enable clicks in it

I had the same issue and it looks like the value of click is only being used when it is passed to get_location(). So instead of passing click = true in the setup() function you can set your winbar like this and it should work: vim.o.winbar = "%{%v:lua.require'nvim-navic'.get_location({'click': v:true})%}".

To fix this, the code for applying the click option in the format_data() function, which gets called by the get_location() function, just needs to be added to the setup() function. Or better yet, have a central function that both setup() and get_location() can call to apply options so the two are always in sync
