A server interface to GHC. Work in progress. No official release yet.
Server that accepts commands and responds with structured data on compiling, type info, compiler messages, etc. via s-expressions (and possibly JSON in the future).
- Asynchonrous s-expression-based communication layer
- Sessions per project
- Possible to connect to remote instances over TCP
- Supports hsenv and sandboxes
- Type checking
- Interactive REPL
- Type info of top-level or sub-expressions
- Go to definition
- Kind info
See TODO.org for planned features.
I test compilation against the following GHC versions:
- GHC 7.4
- GHC 7.8
- GHC 7.6
This is achieved via a
wrapper module
called GHC.Compat
which wraps any function or type that has changed
between GHC versions.
