Language Server Protocol #14

Open afronski opened 6 years ago

afronski commented 6 years ago

We did some research before we started and @pfigwer found couple of interesting facts - in most cases integration with editors for CloudFormation is based on basically auto-completion (crude and simple one), syntax validation and using API for basic stuff - nothing more.

What if we could leverage those specs in order to deliver Language Server Protocol inside our tool and integrate it properly with the editors and IDEs?

Another idea would be to actually leverage watchdog mode - tool / server can listen for file changes and perform validation / linting on demand, in the background.
