    \ 'javascript': ['/opt/javascript-typescript-langserver/lib/language-server-stdio.js'],
    \ }

" Automatically start language servers.
let g:LanguageClient_autoStart = 1

nnoremap <silent> K :call LanguageClient_textDocument_hover()<CR>
nnoremap <silent> gd :call LanguageClient_textDocument_definition()<CR>
nnoremap <silent> <F2> :call LanguageClient_textDocument_rename()<CR>

Run command nvim +PlugInstall +UpdateRemotePlugins +qa in shell to install this plugin. Install corresponding language servers. Start neovim and language services will be available right away if things go well. Happy hacking!
