Switch to ide-backend or something similar

karun012 commented 9 years ago

I think we need to switch to ide-backend or something similar soon. It will be easier to work on issues like #18, #22, #9 (zen-mode), etc.

I am not sure if I can pick it up this week. May be I can do it sometime next week. I couldn't get ide-backend to work in a sample project. Does anyone have a sample that I can look at?

Update: Created a branch https://github.com/karun012/arion/tree/ide-backend-switch

I haven't been able to get ide-backend installed in my sandbox. If anyone can find a way to do it please let me know. I did not check in the change to the .cabal file.

Tried every single version. Here's what happens when I add ide-backend to arion.cabal and do an install --only-dependencies:

sounds like an ide-backend bug :) do you know how to use a cabal sandbox add-source to fix it in place? grab me later today if not.

I tried this:

git clone https://github.com/ekmett/tagged
cabal sandbox add-source <path to the cloned repo>
cabal install --only-dependencies

Same problem. Then I tried this:

git clone https://github.com/ekmett/tagged
cabal sandbox add-source <path to the cloned repo>
cabal install tagged
cabal install --only-dependencies

Didn't work.

karun012 commented 9 years ago

Wait a minute! @mwotton did you want me to do add-source ide-backend?

karun012 commented 9 years ago

Okay! Cloned ide-backend. Fixed the .cabal file. Added it as a source and it worked...Thank you @mwotton

karun012 commented 9 years ago

Update: Tried to call a few functions to see if a session (IdeSession) was created. Here's what happened:

arion: user error (Could not find ide-backend-server)

Doh!

mwotton commented 9 years ago

Yes - clone ide-backend locally, add it as a source to arion, then monkey with ide-backend.cabal. is possible --allow-newer would work, but I'd just change the tagged line in the cabal file and see

Yup. That worked. Update in my previous comment...

karun012 commented 9 years ago

@mwotton May be ghc api :)

Switch to ide-backend or something similar #28
