register file watchers (workspace/didChangeWatchedFiles) instead of relying on redhat.vscode-yaml
Is your enhancement related to a problem? Please describe.
In non-vscode editors yaml-language-server needs to be restarted when local json schemas change.
I believe this is because yaml-language-server is not being notified of changes to those schema files via workspace/didChangeWatchedFiles. I believe this works in VSCode, because the YAML Extension handles registration here src/extension.ts at initialization:"
synchronize: {
// Notify the server about file changes to YAML and JSON files contained in the workspace
fileEvents: [workspace.createFileSystemWatcher('**/*.?(e)y?(a)ml'), workspace.createFileSystemWatcher('**/*.json')],
},
And so yaml-language-server receives the workspace/didChangeWatchedFiles events via onDidChangeWatchedFiles and routes them to watchedFilesHandler function -- but only for vscode.
Describe the solution you would like
Ideally yaml-language-server would explicitly register those same file watchers itself at startup.
Describe alternatives you have considered
Rather than hard-coding watchers for **/*.{yaml,yml,eyml,eyaml,json} it would be nice if yaml-language-server use those as a default and allowed customized watching via LSP settings, just in case the user has their own extensions they want to watch: e.g. *.jsonschema.
