Configuration is editor-independent. For this reason, we pick
JSON-schema as the repr of the source of truth. We do specify it using
rust-macros and some quick&dirty hackery though.
The idea for syncing truth with package.json is to just do that
manually, but there's a test to check that they are actually synced.
There's CLI to print config's json schema:
$ rust-analyzer --print-config-schema
We go with a CLI rather than LSP request/response to make it easier to
incorporate the thing into extension's static config. This is roughtly
how we put the thing in package.json.
6553: Auto imports in completion r=matklad a=SomeoneToIgnore
Closes https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer/issues/1062 but does not handle the completion order, since it's a separate task for https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer/issues/4922 , https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer/issues/4922 and maybe something else.
2 quirks in the current implementation:
* traits are not auto imported during method completion
If I understand the current situation right, we cannot search for traits by a **part** of a method name, we need a full name with correct case to get a trait for it.
* VSCode (?) autocompletion is not as rigid as in Intellij Rust as you can notice on the animation.
Intellij is able to refresh the completions on every new symbol added, yet VS Code does not query the completions on every symbol for me.
With a few debug prints placed in RA, I've observed the following behaviour: after the first set of completion suggestions is received, next symbol input does not trigger a server request, if the completions contain this symbol.
When more symbols added, the existing completion suggestions are filtered out until none are left and only then, on the next symbol it queries for completions.
It seems like the only alternative to get an updated set of results is to manually retrigger it with Esc and Ctrl + Space.
Despite the eerie latter bullet, the completion seems to work pretty fine and fast nontheless, but if you have any ideas on how to make it more smooth, I'll gladly try it out.
