elm-language-server

This project implements the Language Server Protocol for Elm.

Notice

This project is on pause while I'm working on an error tolerent parser and type solver. This will allow for much better diagnostics, type inference, and completion.

This was shift if focus was inspired by the comments made here.

Platforms

Currently this project only supports MacOS. I'm fairly certain that it works on most linux distros, but I have not tested on it. This is mostly beacuse I'm not an expert on how cross-compiling works with GHC and haven't tackled the problem yet. I'm not sure how it will work on windows at this point.

Installation

First, download the latest binary from the releases page.

Neovim

• Make sure the elm-language-server binary is either a) available on your path, or b) have an absolute path to wherever the binary is stored

• Install and setup neovim

• Install neovim language client

• Append your config with the following:

  set hidden
  
  let g:LanguageClient_serverCommands = {
  \ 'elm': ['elm-language-server-exe'],
  " OR
  \ 'elm': ['/path/to/elm-language-server-exe'],
  \ }
  

Features

This project is still in pretty early development, so the feature set is currently limited.

• As-you-type diagnostics (compiler errors, etc)
• Find and use either global or local (node_modules) elm installations to get diagnostics
