Lua type hinting - undefined global

I have tons of linting errors in my nvim config, partly because I use Lazyvim plus a set of poorly written customizations that have traveled with me for a while. I try to re-work things and right now I've been revisiting my developer setup. Well the LSP rrors as I've gone through my neovim config are ticking me off - and this was the biggest one "Undefined global: vim". I saw vim.fn everywhere but the LSP hated it... turns out vim is a given global and you can help your lsp with this:

        
---@diagnostic disable: undefined-global
-- vim is a global in Neovim Lua scripts

For example:

        
---@diagnostic disable: undefined-global
-- vim is a global in Neovim Lua scripts
return {
  "pypeaday",
  dir = vim.fn.stdpath("config") .. "/lua/pypeaday",
  config = function()
    local daily = require("pypeaday.daily")
    vim.api.nvim_create_user_command("DailyNote", daily.check_and_open_daily_note, {})
    vim.api.nvim_create_user_command("Daily", daily.check_and_open_daily_note, {})
    vim.api.nvim_create_user_command("BackLinks", daily.find_backlinks, {})
    vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>dn", daily.check_and_open_daily_note, { desc = "Open daily note" })
    vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>df", daily.find_daily_files, { desc = "Find daily files" })
    vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>dl", daily.find_backlinks, { desc = "Find backlinks" })
  end,
}
