Re: [ide-dev] Language Server Protocol
I gave ls-api a try, using the InterProcessThroughJSONExample example. A couple of questions:

Is there an easy way to integrate ls-api into a OSGi project? Specifically, a way to create ls-api as an OSGi bundle? I'm not familiar with Gradle, so I don't know if this is something that is already supported in the build system.

Second, ls-api is written in XTend. What does this mean if we want to attach (Java) sources to the ls-api bundle, so that it's easier to debug an ls-api client (step into ls-api code, etc). Does XTend compile to Java source code or Java byte code? If it is the former, how readable is that code?

Hi Sopot,

I added an example, where the same server is used through interprocess communication.
The ls-api provides a so called JsonBasedLanguageServer, that takes care of the communication.
That one also implements the LanguageServer interface so it is really the same API afterwards.


Cheers,

Hi Sven,

is there an example around of connecting to an already running server (such as vscode language server) using this ls-api?

Where we are stuck is basically having a vscode lang server sending a response to a basic request, rather than reimplementing a language server from scratch. The only good 'server' we have now in sight is the vscode extension which provides the JS/TS language service so we're trying to connect to that but with no luck.

In your example app I see that you 'obtain' the server through injection but in real life we'd have to connect somehow to a stream (whether socket, stdi/o etc.) and we're looking for examples of these.

Hi Mickael,

I've put a small example together that should give you an idea of how the LanguageServer API works:
https://github.com/TypeFox/languageserver-example

Let me know if it helps.

A Java implementation of the protocol, that is VS Code independent can be found here: https://github.com/TypeFox/ls-api
It defines all the structures in Java interfaces and beans and takes care of the (de)serialization to/from json.
It is currently used by Che, Xtext, and the a JavaC based java language server.
Thanks Sven.
I'm trying to use this API to connect to VSCode implementation of language server (shipped with VSCode or with https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-languageserver-node ) . As I'm new to ls-api and not fluent enough in JS/TS to find out the connection strategy by reading the code from vscode-ls-node, I'm currently stuck at setting up the connection to this external language server.
Does the ls-api allow connections to this external language server? In any case, do you have any example or hint of how to achieve that?
