A core library to support language servers.

I write many language servers and they share some same code so I extract the
shared code to this library.

I've had enough of writing many DSLs in my editor without any LSP support
(completion, hover, ...). So I decide to sacrifice my time to do this work.

## Language servers

- [termux-language-server](https://github.com/termux/termux-language-server/):
for some specific bash scripts:
- [`build.sh`](https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/wiki/Creating-new-package)
- [`PKGBUILD`](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD)
- [`*.ebuild`](https://dev.gentoo.org/~zmedico/portage/doc/man/ebuild.5.html)
- ...
- [mutt-language-server](https://github.com/neomutt/mutt-language-server):
for [(neo)mutt](https://github.com/neomutt/neomutt)'s (neo)muttrc
- [More](https://github.com/Freed-Wu?tab=repositories&q=lsp-server)

## Usage

### Schema

A `Trie` to convert a file to a json, then you can use json schema to validate
it to get diagnostics.

Take
[termux-language-server](https://github.com/termux/termux-language-server/) as
an example.

`PKGBUILD`:

```sh
pkgname=hello
pkgver=0.0.1
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="hello"
arch=(wrong_arch)
license=(GPL3)

build() {
cat < hello
#!/usr/bin/env sh
echo hello
EOF
}

package() {
install -D hello -t $pkgdir/usr/bin
}
```

```sh
termux-language-server --convert PKGBUILD
```

```json
{
"pkgname": "hello",
"pkgver": "0.0.1",
"pkgrel": "1",
"pkgdesc": "hello",
"arch": [
"wrong_arch"
],
"license": [
"GPL3"
],
"build": 0,
"package": 0
}
```

So, we can validate the json by [a json schema](https://github.com/termux/termux-language-server/tree/main/src/termux_language_server/assets/json):

```sh
$ termux-language-server --check PKGBUILD
PKGBUILD:5:7-5:17:error: 'wrong_arch' is not one of ['any', 'pentium4', 'i486', 'i686', 'x86_64', 'x86_64_v3', 'arm', 'armv6h', 'armv7h', 'armv8', 'aarch64']
```

![PKGBUILD](https://github.com/neomutt/lsp-tree-sitter/assets/32936898/58614996-bd8a-4e27-b573-87346c82ea2a)

Sometimes it will be more complicated:

`neomuttrc`:

```neomuttrc
set allow_ansi=yes sleep_time = no ispell = aspell
set query_command = 'mutt_ldap_query.pl %s'
```

```sh
mutt-language-server --convert neomuttrc
```

```json
{
"set": {
"allow_ansi": "yes",
"sleep_time": "no",
"ispell": "aspell",
"query_command": "mutt_ldap_query.pl %s"
}
}
```

```sh
$ mutt-language-server --check neomuttrc
neomuttrc:1:33-1:35:error: 'no' is not of type 'number'
```

![neomuttrc](https://github.com/neomutt/lsp-tree-sitter/assets/32936898/75ebf0c1-784a-43db-ae11-59783af57b4f)

We put the result to the json's `.set` not `.` just in order to reserve the
other keys for other usages.

### Finders

Some finders to find the required node in tree-sitter's AST.
Such as, if you want to get the node under the cursor:

```python
@self.feature(TEXT_DOCUMENT_COMPLETION)
def completions(params: CompletionParams) -> CompletionList:
document = self.workspace.get_document(params.text_document.uri)
uni = PositionFinder(params.position, right_equal=True).find(
document.uri, self.trees[document.uri]
)
# ...
```

UNI (Universal Node Identifier) is URI + node.

### Utilities

This library also provides many utility functions. Such as converting man page to
markdown and tokenizing it in order to generate the json schema.

```sh
mutt-language-server --generate-schema neomuttrc
```

````json
{
"$id": "https://github.com/neomutt/mutt-language-server/blob/main/src/termux_language_server/assets/json/neomuttrc.json",
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
"$comment": "Don't edit this file directly! It is generated by `mutt-language-server --generate-schema=neomuttrc`.",
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"account-hook": {
"description": "```neomuttrc\naccount-hook regex command\n```\nThis hook is executed whenever you access a remote mailbox. Useful to adjust configuration settings to different IMAP or POP servers."
},
"$comment": "..."
}
}
````

## Template

This project provides a template for
[copier](https://github.com/copier-org/copier).

For example, you want to create a language server for a filetype named
[`zathurarc`](https://pwmt.org/projects/zathura/documentation/). Please follow
the following steps:

### Create a tree-sitter parser

1. Create a tree-sitter-parser from [template](https://github.com/tree-sitter-grammars/template).
2. Publish it to PYPI

You can see if
[py-tree-sitter-languages](https://github.com/grantjenks/py-tree-sitter-languages)
supports the language where you want to create a language server.

### Copy a template

```sh
$ copier copy -rHEAD gh:neomutt/lsp-tree-sitter /path/to/your/XXX-language-server
🎤 What is your language name?
zathurarc
🎤 What is your file patterns? split by " "
*.zathurarc zathurarc
🎤 What is your project name?
zathura-language-server
🎤 What is your Python module name?
zathura_language_server
🎤 What is your Python class name?
ZathuraLanguageServer
🎤 What is your tree-sitter parser name?
tree-sitter-zathurarc
🎤 What is your user name?

```

1. Edit `schema.py` to convert a tree-sitter's tree to a json, which is the
core function of `XXX-langauge-server --convert`
2. Edit a `misc/XXX.py` to generate json schemas, which is the core function of
`XXX-languageserver --generate-schema`
3. Edit `server.py` to make sure the LSP features can work for specific
tree-sitter parsers.
4. Edit `queries/XXX.scm` to make sure the LSP features can work for specific
tree-sitter parsers if you use them.
5. Edit `finders.py` to add the language specific finders for
`XXX-languageserver --check` and `XXX-languageserver --format`

### Test if it can work

```sh
$ git init
$ pip install -e .
$ which zathura-language-server
~/.local/bin/zathura-language-server
```

1. Refer `docs/resources/configure.md` to configure your language server for
your editor.
2. Refer `README.md` to see the LSP features provided by your language server.

```sh
vi /path/to/zathurarc
```

You can test the LSP features.

Refer to see how to publish the documents.

## References

These following language servers can be a good example for beginners:

### [zathura-language-server](https://github.com/Freed-Wu/zathura-language-server)

`zathurarc`'s syntax only has 4 directives:

- `set option value`
- `include /the/path`
- `map key function`
- `unmap key`

Very few directives make creating
[tree-sitter-zathurarc](https://github.com/Freed-Wu/tree-sitter-zathurarc) and
editing `schema.py` very easy. So I am highly recommended starting from it.

### [tmux-language-server](https://github.com/Freed-Wu/tmux-language-server)

`tmux.conf` is more complex than `zathurarc`. It has not only
`set option = value` and `source /the/path`, but also 170+ other directives.

### [mutt-language-server](https://github.com/neomutt/mutt-language-server)

`muttrc` or `neomuttrc` has the following directives:

- `set option = value`
- `source /the/path`
- 80+ other directives

However, its `set` syntax is very flexible. The following syntaxes are legal:

- `set option2 = value1 option2 = value2 ...`
- `set option`: a shortcut for `set option = yes`
- `set nooption`: a shortcut for `set option = no`
- `set invoption`
- `set nooption1 invoption2 option3 ...`
- ...

So, in fact it is harder than `tmux.conf`, IMO.

### [termux-language-server](https://github.com/termux/termux-language-server)

`build.sh`, `PKGBUILD`, `*.ebuild` use same syntax of bash. However, they use
different json schemas. If the language where you want to create a language
server, you can refer it to know how to handle this situation.
