Verilog-mode with LSP? #1814

Open unfrostedpoptart opened 1 year ago

unfrostedpoptart commented 1 year ago

Sorry - this is more a help request than an issue with verilog-mode although I think this is the best place for it to be seen by the desired audience.

A while back ( https://github.com/veripool/verilog-mode/issues/1710 ), I asked about using LSP with Verilog-mode but Wilson wasn't interested in adding support. Now that I understand LSP a tiny bit better, I think I can ask a more intelligent question:

Is anyone using verilog-mode and LSP together and have a working configuration? From my slightly better understanding of LSP, verilog-mode would still be used for the wonderful AUTO functionality. It might also be in charge of indentation but I'm not positive on this. However, the font-lock stuff would all be disabled and LSP would handle this. And, LSP would also deal with all the completion and links to definitions. Therefore, I don't think verilog-mode needs any changes to work with LSP - just a few setq-s.

So, I'm hoping someone here has set this up and can give installation and configuration tips!

Hi @unfrostedpoptart

You could take a look at verilog-ext package. It provides functions that ease the setup of lsp and eglot for verilog-mode:

Thanks! It's still about a hundred steps from the docs but I think I can follow it.
