Micro Plugin LSP Client

Please note: This software is very much not finished. It is more like a proof of concept and might break if you call it names.

Provides LSP methods as actions to Micro that can subsequently be mapped to key bindings.

Currently implemented methods:

If possible, this plugin will register the following shortcuts:

Installation

You can install micro plugins from the command line. To install this plugin, run the following command in your command line:

$ micro -plugin install lsp

Alternatively, you can clone this repo into micro's plug folder:

$ git clone https://github.com/AndCake/micro-plugin-lsp ~/.config/micro/plug/lsp

Configuration

In your settings.json, you add the lsp.server option in order to enable using it for your languages' server.

Example:

{
	"lsp.server": "python=pyls,go=gopls,typescript=deno lsp,rust=rust-analyzer",
	"lsp.formatOnSave": true,
	"lsp.ignoreMessages": "LS message1 to ignore|LS message 2 to ignore|...",
	"lsp.tabcompletion": true,
	"lsp.ignoreTriggerCharacters": "completion,signature",
	"lsp.autocompleteDetails": false
}

The format for the lsp.server value is a comma-separated list for each file type you want to boot up a language server:

<file type>=<executable with arguments where necessary>[=<initialization options passed to language server>][,...]

You can also use an environment variable called MICRO_LSP to define the same information. If set, it will override the lsp.server from the settings.json. You can add a line such as the following to your shell profile (e.g. .bashrc):

export MICRO_LSP='python=pyls,go=gopls,typescript=deno lsp={"importMap":"import_map.json"},rust=rust-analyzer'

If neither the MICRO_LSP nor the lsp.server is set, then the plugin falls back to the following settings:

python=pylsp,go=gopls,typescript=deno lsp,javascript=deno lsp,markdown=deno lsp,json=deno lsp,jsonc=deno lsp,rust=rust-analyzer,lua=lua-lsp,c++=clangd

The initialization options can alternatively passed by updating the settings.json with a filetype-specific settings string, e.g.:

{
	"lsp.typescript": "{\"enable\":true}",
	"lsp.rust": "{\"cargo\": {\"buildScripts\": {\"enable\": true} }, \"procMacro\": {\"enable\": true} }"
}

The option lsp.autocompleteDetails allows for showing all auto-completions in a horizontally split buffer view (true) instead of the status line (false).

Testing

This plugin has been tested briefly with the following language servers:

Known issues

Not all possible types of modification events to the file are currently being sent to the language server. Saving the file will re-synchronize it, though.
