Auto LSP

A Rust crate for creating Abstract Syntax Trees (AST) and Language Server Protocol (LSP) servers powered by Tree-sitter queries

CI Status Rust Version

[!IMPORTANT] auto_lsp is at an early stage, expect frequent breaking changes.

Quick Example

auto_lsp is designed to be as language-agnostic as possible, allowing any Tree-sitter grammar to be used.

Defining a simple AST involves two steps: writing the queries and then defining the corresponding AST structures in Rust.

Let's say you have a toy language with a root node named document containing a list of function nodes, each containing a unique name.

A simple query file to capture the root document and function names:

(document) @document
(function
    (name) @name) @function

The corresponding AST definition in Rust:

#[seq(query_name = "document", kind(symbol()))]
struct Document {
   functions: Vec<Function>
}

#[seq(query_name = "function", kind(symbol()))]
struct Function {
   name: Name
}

#[seq(query_name = "name", kind(symbol()))]
struct Name {}  

Now that you have your AST defined, you can:

  • Implement the LSP traits and create a LSP server (with the lsp_server feature).
  • Add your own logic for testing purposes, code_generation, etc.

You can find more examples in the src/tests folder.

Features

  • assertions: Enable compile-time checks for conflicting queries.
  • deadlock_detection: Enable parking_lot's deadlock detection (not compatible with wasm).
  • log: Enable logging. (uses stderrlog)
  • lsp_server: Enable the LSP server (uses lsp_server).
  • python_test: Enable the python workspace mock for testing purposes.
  • rayon: Enable rayon support (not compatible with wasm).
  • wasm: Enable wasm support.
