LSP Config #5

Closed benjamin-kirkbride closed 1 year ago

benjamin-kirkbride commented 1 year ago

Is configuring Language Servers in scope for toolconfig? If so, can I get an example of how that might look?

cxw42 commented 1 year ago

Toolconfig is use-case agnostic, restricted only by the fact that settings are determined per file path. Therefore, I don't see any reason why you couldn't configure a language server in a toolconfig file.

However, I have never actually used any language servers! Therefore, I cannot give an example. Do you have an example or link of the way it's currently done?

Here is the documentation for it (including an example for EditorConfig, which is interesting): https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/lsp/3.17/specification/#workspace_configuration

I am not an expert on EditorConfig, nor LSP, but given that EditorConfig is called out by name and ToolConfig will not be a radical change in paradigm, seems like it should be possible?

Took a glance through it --- looks like workspace/configuration might be an arbitrary key-value store, in which case using TC as a backend would be no problem!

Yes, that was my conclusion as well. Awesome!
