Add support to rope refactoring functions

[00sapo]

A full list of functions available through rope is here: https://github.com/python-rope/rope/blob/master/docs/overview.rst#refactorings

An example to use it in a text editor is here: https://github.com/python-rope/ropevim

Having these features available would make pyls far better than others python language servers. Consider that the Jedi refactoring is much worst than the rope one.

How does it work with a bigger projects? For me a simple variable rename with rope in a project I work on (~1 mil loc) just hangs the server completely for more than a few minutes, which is fairly unacceptable

I think that if it's the first time you use it in the project you have to wait until rope creates its cache. BTW I never work on so large projects... maybe it could be disabled when the project has more than N tags/symbols if it hangs

pyls is no longer being maintained, you should switch to pylsp, which is a fork of this project maintained by the original author of pyls.

Once you install pylsp, you can install https://github.com/python-rope/pylsp-rope to get rope refactoring support.
