[Omni complete] Missing autocomplete for Foo.

[oyvindkinsey]

When doing C-X, C-O in insert mode on the string Foo. with the cursor after the ., no types are suggested for types imported via eg the cjs plugins.

. should in this case be treated as show me any available properties, something which works perfectly with locally defined types.

var Foo = require('Foo');
Foo.

By typing out the property name, and executing :TernType, Tern is able to correctly infer the type, so the cjs plugin i working properly.

Any hints as to how to debug this? The plugin we use for loading required modules is close to the Node module, and is successfully resolving and passing back source for each requested module.

You should add a .tern-project file containing node plugin.

For instance,

{
  "libs": [
    "browser",
    "yui"
  ],
  "plugins": {
      "node": {}
  }
}

We don't have any issues loading modules.

We have multiple custom plugins, for loading and type annotation, so the
project file is all dandy :)

By default, Tern will only show any available properties when at least two characters have been given. These come from the cx.props registry, which is kept with no regard to origin file, so I don't see a reason for this to break for properties from different files. Are you sure you're comparing apples to apples? (I.e. does it really work for local properties when you don't type anything after the dot?)
