Lualine config for LSP clients, formatters and linters

Very nice! I adapted the script for my use with conform.nvim instead of format.nvim and made some other minor changes.

local function get_attached_clients()
	-- Get active clients for current buffer
	local buf_clients = vim.lsp.get_clients({ bufnr = 0 })
	if #buf_clients == 0 then
		return "No client active"
	end
	local buf_ft = vim.bo.filetype
	local buf_client_names = {}
	local num_client_names = #buf_client_names

	-- Add lsp-clients active in the current buffer
	for _, client in pairs(buf_clients) do
		num_client_names = num_client_names + 1
		buf_client_names[num_client_names] = client.name
	end

	-- Add linters for the current filetype (nvim-lint)
	local lint_success, lint = pcall(require, "lint")
	if lint_success then
		for ft, ft_linters in pairs(lint.linters_by_ft) do
			if ft == buf_ft then
				if type(ft_linters) == "table" then
					for _, linter in pairs(ft_linters) do
						num_client_names = num_client_names + 1
						buf_client_names[num_client_names] = linter
					end
				else
					num_client_names = num_client_names + 1
					buf_client_names[num_client_names] = ft_linters
				end
			end
		end
	end

	-- Add formatters (conform.nvim)
	local conform_success, conform = pcall(require, "conform")
	if conform_success then
		for _, formatter in pairs(conform.list_formatters_for_buffer(0)) do
			if formatter then
				num_client_names = num_client_names + 1
				buf_client_names[num_client_names] = formatter
			end
		end
	end

	local client_names_str = table.concat(buf_client_names, ", ")
	local language_servers = string.format("[%s]", client_names_str)
