It seems that Codemirror plugin show-hint is activated by shortcut. I need to implement live autoplete functionality, i.e. show hints after user entered first letters of keyword. Is there a way to do this with Codemirror?

Yes, there is a way to do this with CodeMirror. You can see the description of the addon for this here. CodeMirror offers the hint/show-hint.js addon that allows you to display hints when a keyboard short-cut is used.

You can find additional information on adding hints in this StackOverflow question as well.

Additionally, you can checkout their demo here.

You could have a function that is fired off after a keyup event. An example of an implementation is in this Stack Overflow answer.
