SwiftLSPClient

This is a Swift library for interacting with Language Server Protocol implementations.

An LSP server provides rich information about source code. An LSP client consumes this information. This library is all about the client side.

Example

import SwiftLSPClient

let executablePath = "path/to/your/lsp-server-executable"
let host = LanguageServerProcessHost(path: executablePath, arguments: [],
    environment: [/* the environment your lsp server requires e.g. PATH */])

host.start { (server) in
    guard let server = server else {
        Swift.print("unable to launch server")
        return
    }
    
    // Set-up notificationResponder to see log/error messages from LSP server
    server.notificationResponder = <object conforming to NotificationResponder>

    let processId = Int(ProcessInfo.processInfo.processIdentifier)
    let capabilities = ClientCapabilities(workspace: nil, textDocument: nil, experimental: nil)

    let params = InitializeParams(processId: processId,
                                  rootPath: nil,
                                  rootURI: nil,
                                  initializationOptions: nil,
                                  capabilities: capabilities,
                                  trace: Tracing.off,
                                  workspaceFolders: nil)

    server.initialize(params: params, block: { (result) in
        switch result {
        case .failure(let error):
            Swift.print("unable to initialize \(error)")
        case .success(let value):
            Swift.print("initialized \(value)")
        }
    })
}

Supported Features

The LSP specification is large, and this library currently does not implement it all. The intention is to support the 3.x specification, but be as backwards-compatible as possible with pre-3.0 servers.
