Issue description

When I am using Tabnine AI and I talk to it, the error pops up about 15-20 times inside of the GDScriptLanguageClient Output [Error - 4:09:50 PM] Request workspace/symbol failed. Message: Method not found: symbol Code: -32601

It force opens the output and spams errors which can be distracting. It would be nice if I could disable specific errors from showing

Steps to reproduce

Open Godot Open VSC Create a blank .gd file Connect to language server through VSC Install Tabnine AI, talk to it Output should pop up with the indicated error

Still a bug, but tabnine proving not to be useful here

@Calinou, I'm getting this on a vanilla install of VSCode.

It looks like textDocument/documentSymbol does return results while workspace/symbol returns 'code': -32601, 'message': 'Method not found: symbol'.

Is cmd/ctrl-shift-o supposed to query the LSP?

Is cmd/ctrl-shift-o supposed to query the LSP?

Yes, it queries the list of symbols from the current file (which is returned by the LSP).

[bs]

cmd-shift-o isn't returning anything for me.

Any tips on debugging? I started Godot with ./Godot --lsp-server --verbose and looking at Godot LSP for messages in VSCode but don't see anything.

Curiously, most messages to go Godot LSP but then cmd-t throws to GDScriptLanguageClient

[DaelonSuzuka]

I started Godot with ./Godot --lsp-server --verbose

Why are you doing that? What is the --lsp-server flag supposed to do?

[bs]

@DaelonSuzuka I was trying to see what the LSP server was returning when VSCode Godot-Tools was querying it.

[DaelonSuzuka]

@bs I can't find any evidence that an --lsp-server flag exists or has ever existed, so I don't understand why you would do that.

cmd-shift-o isn't returning anything for me.

There's currently a bug in the Language Server where it won't return document symbols if there is an extends statement anywhere except the first line of the file.

@MilesWilde As far as I can tell, this is a problem with the Language Server, which is a component of the Godot Editor. You should open an issue at https://github.com/godotengine/godot.

@DaelonSuzuka Hmm, I can't seem to find where I got that, either. 😅 Is there a way to output the language server requests Godot sees and any errors thrown?

I can confirm that what I'm seeing is because of the order of extends. Do you have a link to the github issue? I did a search and couldn't find it.

Not unless you want to clone the repo, set up the dev environment, and launch the extension in debug mode. The LSP is so chatty that enabling logging in release builds was causing performance problems, so I had to make it a development-only feature.

Do you have a link to the github issue?

I don't know if there is one, I merely observed the behavior while investigating some tickets on here.

Could this issue also crop up when trying to rename symbols in a file? I noticed that renaming has stopped working for me after updating to the latest version of the extension.

Edit: For context, my setup is godot-tools extension v2.1.0, running vscode 1.93.0 on windows 11 and Godot 4.3, with the language server running in the background. Not using tabnine, but I do have the unofficial Godot Files extension v0.0.10 installed.

but I do have the unofficial Godot Files extension v0.0.10 installed.

Just tried uninstalling this and reloading to make sure it wasn't the cause, and it wasn't.

Could this issue also crop up when trying to rename symbols in a file?

I should also clarify, I didn't notice the language server outputting Request workspace/symbol failed when renaming variables, but I did when searching for workspace level symbols through the command palette. (ctrl+P, then type #test to reproduce), but I thought they may still be related since they both have something to do with symbols, and I don't have trouble renaming variables outside of gdscript files.

Wow, that's impressive! I think it's about time I did this. I've been wanting to hunt down a few crashes I've been getting.

I don't know if there is one, I merely observed the behavior while investigating some tickets on here.

When I saw symbols being returned in Sublime and Zed, for example, I figured it was LSP results, but it looks like they're doing local indexing.

I'll open a ticket.

Thanks for the help here, and for the cert heads-up! 😂
