## Since we already have LSP, this product is no longer necessary, right?
This project is almost never used. This is because there is a useful product lsp-java. Please use it.

## A Better Java Development Environment for Emacs

`Meghanada` is a new minor-mode (`meghanada-mode`) that aims at improving the editing
experience for Java. It works by using a combination of an Emacs
package and [meghanada-server][].

**Features:**

- Easy install
- Auto-update server module
- [Gradle][] and [Maven][] and [Eclipse][] project support
- No need build tool's plugin
- Run build tool task
- Compile your project
- Syntax check and analyze java source (`flycheck-meghanada`)
- Support `Generic Types` and `Lambda`
- Code completion with [company-mode][] (`company-meghanada`)
- Optimize import and sort
- Find definitions and references using builtin [xref][]
- Run [JUnit][] test (include test runner)
- Diagnostic reporting with [flycheck][] (`flycheck-meghanada`)
- Show symbol's type info with `el-doc`
- Full-featured text search

`Meghanada` is tested under `Linux`, `Windows` and `macOS`.

(Welcome contributions !)

## Dependencies

Meghanada has been developed Emacs 25.1.1

### Elisp dependencies

| Package | Version |
| ---------------- | ------- |
| `cl-lib` | 0.5 |
| [yasnippet][] | 0.6.1 |
| [company-mode][] | 0.9.0 |
| [flycheck][] | 0.23 |

### Language Server

`meghanada-mode` require [meghanada-server][] and JDK (not JRE).

[meghanada-server][] is The language server.
The language server provides a simple interface between `meghanada-mode` and It is a protocol based on a simple S-expression.
This server is developed in Java and supports Java version 8 or later.

The architecture between the server and the client is very similar to the language server protocol.
The server retrieves and updates all information in the Java project at file save time and at compile time.
If the autocompletion information is not displayed correctly, please try to fix the compilation error first.

## Installation

### Elisp

Install meghanada from melpa.

#### Configuration

An example is shown below.

```elisp
(require 'meghanada)
(add-hook 'java-mode-hook
(lambda ()
;; meghanada-mode on
(meghanada-mode t)
(flycheck-mode +1)
(setq c-basic-offset 2)
;; use code format
(add-hook 'before-save-hook 'meghanada-code-beautify-before-save)))
(cond
((eq system-type 'windows-nt)
(setq meghanada-java-path (expand-file-name "bin/java.exe" (getenv "JAVA_HOME")))
(setq meghanada-maven-path "mvn.cmd"))
(t
(setq meghanada-java-path "java")
(setq meghanada-maven-path "mvn")))
```

### Meghanada-Server

The server will be automatically installed to `~/.emacs.d/meghanada/meghanada-x.x.jar`.

If you open a java file and set `meghanada-mode`, a [meghanada-server][] process starts automatically and connects to your Emacs.

### Updating

The server will be automatically updated. To manually update bellows, type

```
M-x meghanada-update-server
```

### Manual Server Installation

The server will be installed and updated automatically.

If you set it up manually, please follow the instructions below.

#### Download meghanada-setup.jar

A meghanada-setup.jar is a small program that automatically updates the server.

This can be downloaded from:

https://github.com/mopemope/meghanada-server/releases/download/v1.0.13/meghanada-setup-0.0.2.jar

Move the downloaded setup.jar to .emacs.d/meghanada/.
Start Emacs and enable meghanada-mode.

## Autocompletion

Autocompletion is supported by company-mode.
Supported autocompletions are as follows

- Import Class
- Class
- Method
- Field
- Local Variable

If the completion candidates are not displayed correctly, try to fix the compilation error first.
Auto-completion matching is optional. Try typing the following to find out more.

`M-x customize-group RET meghanada` and `M-x customize-group RET company-meghanada`.

## Syntax/error checking

Syntax checks, such as compile errors, are supported by `flycheck`.
This includes `-Xlint` warnings.

## Code formatter

`meghanada-mode` uses `google-java-format` by default for formatter.

It also support [Eclipse][] formatter.

If you want to customize and use the [Eclipse][] formatter please export the formatter settings from [Eclipse][] to a file.

Then rename the file to `meghanadaFormatter.xml` and place it in the project root or subproject root.
`Meghanada` will automatically load and import it.

If you want to use a system wide formatter, deploy the file to `$HOME/.emacs.d/meghanada/meghanadaFormatter.xml`.

## Debug

`meghanada-mode` has no debugger yet. However, the external debugger is supported.

if you want to debug your code, execute `meghanada-debug-xxxx` function and then use [realgud][], etc.

```
# in Emacs now:
M-x meghanada-debug-junit-class
Please wait ...
M-x realgud:jdb
Run jdb (like this): jdb -attach 6006
Set uncaught java.lang.Throwable
Set deferred uncaught java.lang.Throwable
Initializing jdb ...
>
VM Started: No frames on the current call stack

main[1] stop at example.MyClass:100 // set breakpoint
main[1] run
```

## Customize

To customize other aspects of its behavior, type `M-x customize-group RET meghanada` and `M-x customize-group RET company-meghanada`.

## Troubleshooting

See `*meghanada-server-log*` buffer. or `(temporary-file-directory)meghanada_server_(user-uid).log`, e.g. `/tmp/meghanada_server_1000.log`.

Please press `C-g` when emacs seems to hang.
