Support a new IDE #11

Open sestinj opened 1 year ago

sestinj commented 1 year ago

Continue was designed so that this can be as easy as possible, but it will still probably be a good amount of work. However, features can be added incrementally and getting 80% of Continue in a new IDE might take only 20% of the work.

To support a new IDE, you need to implement a class like here, which just maps each of the actions like "read file" or "display message" to the proper API given by that IDE.

IDEs we would like to support:

[x] JetBrains
[ ] Neovim
[ ] Visual Studio
[ ] Vim
[ ] Emacs
[ ] Chrome extension?

Hey @sestinj. The link in the comment above doesnt seem to be working. Could you please provide the link?Thanks

I believe the new file would be here. It seems like a good starting point to understand the IDE interface.

sorry, I’m new here and may be I miss something. but this could be done through LSP (langage server protocol), most editors in the list support it (here is a non exhaustive list)

vim through vim-lsp
neovim (native, need to provide config)
emacs (eglot native since 29) or lsp-mode
eclipse (lsp4e)
netbeans
... this require to provide only one LSP server interface and may be some guideline to configure / run server
