Previously we used the IdleTimeout event to trigger LSP
`completion/resolveItem` requests. We can now refactor this to use an
event system hook instead and lower the timeout.
Language Servers are now configured in a separate table in `languages.toml`:
```toml
[langauge-server.mylang-lsp]
command = "mylang-lsp"
args = ["--stdio"]
config = { provideFormatter = true }
[language-server.efm-lsp-prettier]
command = "efm-langserver"
[language-server.efm-lsp-prettier.config]
documentFormatting = true
languages = { typescript = [ { formatCommand ="prettier --stdin-filepath ${INPUT}", formatStdin = true } ] }
```
The language server for a language is configured like this (`typescript-language-server` is configured by default):
```toml
[[language]]
name = "typescript"
language-servers = [ { name = "efm-lsp-prettier", only-features = [ "format" ] }, "typescript-language-server" ]
```
or equivalent:
```toml
[[language]]
name = "typescript"
language-servers = [ { name = "typescript-language-server", except-features = [ "format" ] }, "efm-lsp-prettier" ]
```
Each requested LSP feature is priorized in the order of the `language-servers` array.
For example the first `goto-definition` supported language server (in this case `typescript-language-server`) will be taken for the relevant LSP request (command `goto_definition`).
If no `except-features` or `only-features` is given all features for the language server are enabled, as long as the language server supports these. If it doesn't the next language server which supports the feature is tried.
The list of supported features are:
- `format`
- `goto-definition`
- `goto-declaration`
- `goto-type-definition`
- `goto-reference`
- `goto-implementation`
- `signature-help`
- `hover`
- `document-highlight`
- `completion`
- `code-action`
- `workspace-command`
- `document-symbols`
- `workspace-symbols`
- `diagnostics`
- `rename-symbol`
- `inlay-hints`
Another side-effect/difference that comes with this PR, is that only one language server instance is started if different languages use the same language server.
Multicursor completions may overlap and therefore overlapping
completions must be dropped to avoid crashes. Furthermore, multicursor
edits might simply be out of range if the word before/after the cursor
is shorter. This currently leads to crashes, instead these selections
are now also removed for completions.
This commit also significantly refactors snippet transaction generation
so that tabstops behave correctly with the above rules. Furthermore,
snippet tabstops need to be carefully mapped to ensure their position
is correct and consistent with our selection semantics. Finally,
we now keep a partially updated Rope while creating snippet
transactions so that we can fill information into snippets that
depends on the position in the document.
Most LSPs will complete case-insensitive matches, particularly from
lowercase to uppercase. In some cases, notably Pyright, this is given
as a simple insert text instead of TextEdit. When this happens, the
prefix text was left unedited.
Fixing autocomplete required moving the document savepoint before the
asynchronous completion request. However, this in turn causes new bugs:
If the completion popup is open, the savepoint is restored when the
popup closes (or another entry is selected). However, at that point
a new completion request might already have been created which
would have replaced the new savepoint (therefore leading to incorrectly
applied complies).
This commit fixes that bug by allowing in arbitrary number of
savepoints to be tracked on the document. The savepoints are reference
counted and therefore remain valid as long as any reference to them
remains. Weak reference are stored on the document and any reference
that can not be upgraded anymore (hence no strong reference remain)
are automatically discarded.
Currently, the selection is not saved/restored when completion
checkpoints are applied. This is usually fine because undoing changes
usually restores maps selections back in insert mode. But this is not
always the case and especially problematic in the presence of
multi-cursor completions (since completions are applied relative to
the selection/cursor) and snippets (which can change the selection)
This refactors the snippet logic to be largely unaware of the rest of
the document. The completion application logic is moved into
generate_transaction_from_snippet which is extended to support
dynamically computing replacement text.
When accepting a snippet completion we automatically delete the
placeholders for now as doing so manual is quite cumbersome. In the
future we should keep these as a mark + virtual text that is
automatically removed once the cursor moves there.
The completion component has a separate branch for handling the
Escape key but it can use the `ignore_escape_key` helper added for
signature-help instead.
This should not cause a behavior change - it's just cleaning up the
completion component.
* feat(ui): deprecated completions
Mark deprecated completions using strike-through
(CROSSED_OUT modifier). The deprection information
is taken either from the `deprecated` field of the
completion item or from the completion tags.
The field seems to be the older way of passing
the deprecated information and it was already
marked as deprecated for Symbol. In completion
item the field is still valid but it seems that
the LSP is moving in the general direction of using
tags for this kind of information and as such
relying on tags as well seems reasonable and
future-proof.
* rework positioning/rendering, enables softwrap/virtual text
This commit is a large rework of the core text positioning and
rendering code in helix to remove the assumption that on-screen
columns/lines correspond to text columns/lines.
A generic `DocFormatter` is introduced that positions graphemes on
and is used both for rendering and for movements/scrolling.
Both virtual text support (inline, grapheme overlay and multi-line)
and a capable softwrap implementation is included.

Completion edits - either basic `insert_text` strings or structured
`text_edit`s - are assumed by the LSP spec to apply to the current
cursor (or at least the trigger point). We can use the range (if any)
and text given by the Language Server to create a transaction that
changes all ranges in the current selection though, allowing auto-
complete to affect multiple cursors.
Language Servers may signal that they do not support a method in
the initialization result (server capabilities). We can check these
when making LSP requests and hint in the status line when a method
is not supported by the server. This can also prevent crashes in
servers which assume that clients do not send requests for methods
which are disabled in the server capabilities.
There is an existing pattern the LSP client module where a method
returns `Option<impl Future<Output = Result<_>>>` with `None` signaling
no support in the server. This change extends this pattern to the rest
of the client functions. And we log an error to the statusline for
manually triggered LSP calls which return `None`.
d7d0d5ffb7 resolves completion items on
the idle-timeout event. The `Completion::resolve_completion_item`
function blocks on the LSP request though, which blocks the compositor
and in turn blocks the event loop. So until the language server returns
the resolved completion item, Helix is unable to respond to keypresses
or other LSP messages.
This is typically ok since the resolution request is fast but for some
language servers this can be problematic, and ideally we shouldn't be
blocking like this anyways.
When receiving a `completionItem/resolve` request, the Volar server
sends a `workspace/configuration` request to Helix and blocks itself
on the response, leading to a deadlock. Eventually the resolve request
times out within Helix but Helix is locked up and unresponsive in that
window.
This change resolves the completion item without blocking the
compositor.

* improve memory allocation
* small correction
Some language servers may not send the `documentation` field if it
is expensive to compute. Clients can request the missing field with
a completionItem/resolve request.
In this change we use the idle-timeout event to ensure that the current
completion item is resolved.
