VSCode extension overrides config.json options
Hello
If ZLS is started with a custom config.json, unfortunately the extension will override the settings when sending its configuration.
Perhaps it could be possible to only send the keys that are set by the user ?
Here is a sample log:
info : ( main ): Starting ZLS 0.13.0 @ '../_main~repo~zls_aarch64-macos/zls'

Thank you for this great extension !
Could you clarify what you have set in your zls.json and VS Code settings.json? These 'simplified' logs are really confusing me...
Due to running in a bazel sandbox, we actually set the zig path to the locally zig toolchain when starting ZLS inside its config.json (via a bazel runner).
It used to be that we could set a non existent path, vscode-zig would complain but at least it didn't override the ZLS options.
Now starting https://github.com/ziglang/vscode-zig/pull/222/files#diff-4af55eca91ea0a137b682c0a4f42fc9d6a8a6c56c9484f6974363204fa622f4aR14, because when that happens, that now prevents the whole extension from loading.
Same for global_cache_path.
zls.json
{
"zig_lib_path": "/private/var/tmp/_bazel_steeve/3a999f4335ba7d297daf0feac587c784/execroot/_main/bazel-out/darwin_arm64-dbg/bin/third_party/zls/zls.zls_runner.sh.runfiles/rules_zig~~zig~zig_0.14.0-dev.363_Pc3faae6bf_aarch64-macos/lib",
"zig_exe_path": "/private/var/tmp/_bazel_steeve/3a999f4335ba7d297daf0feac587c784/execroot/_main/bazel-out/darwin_arm64-opt-exec-ST-d57f47055a04/bin/third_party/zls/zig.zig_runner.sh",
"global_cache_path": "/private/var/tmp/zig-cache"
}
settings.json:
"zig.formattingProvider": "zls",
"zig.initialSetupDone": true,
"zig.zls.path": "${workspaceFolder}/tools/zls.sh",
If we disable the formatting provider, the extension loads again but then we lose the formatting, which is kind of a big deal...
The formatting issue should have been fixed by #233. The rest of the issue may be fixed by #252. Could you check whether that resolves your issue? Feel free to wait for the PR to merged and featured in the next release of the extension.
I assume that this issue is about zml. I would like to point out that the settings.json should be updated.
- "zig.formattingProvider": "zls",
- "zig.initialSetupDone": true,
"zig.path": "${workspaceFolder}/tools/zig.sh",
- "zig.zls.globalCachePath": null,
"zig.zls.path": "${workspaceFolder}/tools/zls.sh",
zig.formattingProvideris "zls" by default.zig.initialSetupDonehas been removed.- The
zig.zls.globalCachePathworkaround should hopefully not be necessary with #252.
Not sure how this ties in with bazel and the rest of the project but may even go further and remove zig.zls.path because the extension can automatically install the appropriate ZLS version.
You could also replace zig.path with zig.version. The extension will automatically install requested Zig version.
- "zig.formattingProvider": "zls",
- "zig.initialSetupDone": true,
- "zig.path": "${workspaceFolder}/tools/zig.sh",
- "zig.zls.globalCachePath": null,
- "zig.zls.path": "${workspaceFolder}/tools/zls.sh",
+ "zig.version": "0.13.0",
You can find more information about the version management capabilities of the extension in #230.
I've encountered this issue consistently. It's frustrating to constantly need to troubleshoot why settings aren't taking effect, only to discover that they're being overridden by the extension.

The extension has an infuriating behavior when setting zig_exe_path. It insists on only accepting three values:
- The literal string "zig"
- An absolute path to the Zig executable
- leaving the field blank => will cause it to install Zig without warning or consent, no questions asked, no way to cancel the installation
OP didn't make it a point, but you can see in their post that zig_exe_path is being overridden as well.
Could you elaborate on whether the logs you have posted are indicating that the LSP is setup as expected or not. I am a bit confused about how there is stage4w/bin/zig and stage4/bin/zig. It's not easy to tell what is going on without knowing what is the $PATH, zls.json and settings.json.
Apart from the issues I have already referenced here, there is an issue with how editor config and the zls.json work to resolve the zig executable path: Both the ZLS and the vscode extension itself want access to a zig executable. ZLS can be provided a zig executable through the zls.json but the extension has no knowledge of that which means that it will try to find or install a zig executable by itself and then inform ZLS about it. I believe that you and OP have both this issue. To verify I would need to know what exactly is specified in $PATH, zls.json and settings.json.
It insists on only accepting three values:
Is there something concrete that you are missing here? Without more information I could only guess or list all the version management features of the extension. Maybe predefined variables to specify a relative path? Or do just not want it automatically install Zig?
Both the ZLS and the vscode extension itself want access to a zig executable. ZLS can be provided a zig executable through the zls.json but the extension has no knowledge of that which means that it will try to find or install a zig executable by itself and then inform ZLS about it.
Yes, the disconnect between them is the issue.

Would it no suffice to move the zig_exe_path setting from the zls.json to the settings.json? The latter also allows you to comment out the unused versions.

Yes, I've arrived at that conclusion 😁 , it was just neater using the .json file when ensuring server functionality with multiple editors. (I guess OP would have to ship a custom/modified/modify settings.json)
For completeness sake: the other setting that gets ignored is semantic_tokens, no biggie, but it likely means 'can't use zls.json to set any enum-type settings'

True, that is a nice advantage when using multiple editors. But besides that, based on my personal experience, I've generally had a better time when I removed my zls.json and only relied on editor's configuration. You have to setup some configuration for you editor anyway so getting rid of the zls.json is just one less file that needs to be managed. Many other LSPs only support in-editor configuration as opposed to having their own config file which would make it more consistent.
I guess OP would have to ship a custom/modified/modify settings.json
AFAICT OP is having this issue with the zml project which has a workspace settings.json so it should be possible to set the zig_exe_path/zig.path in there even though I am not entirely sure why it contains "zig.path": "x".
the other setting that gets ignored is
semantic_tokens, no biggie, but it likely means 'can't use zls.json to set any enum-type settings'
This one is kind of intentional. The extension has "partial" as the default value for semantic_tokens because it has been observed to give better results. Similar to the issue with zig_exe_path/zig.path, it still gets overridden if explicitly specified in zls.json.
