[LSP] Support language experiences for roslyn options in editorconfig files #62758

Open Danyboyyy opened 2 years ago

Summary

This feature is looking to add hovering, completion, and diagnostics to .editorconfig files.

Background and Motivation

Despite that .editorconfig files have a GUI for users to modify their settings, some developers prefer modifying these settings in the default text file format. Providing language experiences to these developers will make them have a better experience while dealing with these files.

Proposed Feature

As mentioned above, there are three main features we want to support: hovering, completion, and diagnostics.

Hovering

Display information related to the setting when the user hovers over it

Completion

Show completion options when the user is typing a setting
Show the possible values a setting can have
Commit characters: '=', ' '

Diagnostics

Show diagnostics when the user:

Typed repeated fields
Miss-typed a setting or its value
Assigned an incorrect value to a setting

Alternative Designs

Add support for classification
