Zig Language Server, or zls, is a language server for Zig. The Zig wiki states that "The Zig community is decentralized" and "There is no concept of 'official' or 'unofficial'", so instead of calling zls unofficial, and I'm going to call it a cool option, one of many.
Installing zls is pretty simple;
git clone https://github.com/zigtools/zls
cd zls
zig build| Option | Type | What it Does |
|---|---|---|
-Ddata_version |
string |
The data file version. Any files in the src/data file that correspond with the Zig version you want the language server to build for (0.6.0, master). |
Then, you can use the zls executable in an editor of your choice that has a Zig language server client!
Note:zls itself must be built using the master branch of zig currently due to a bug in std.json which was fixed after 0.6.0 was released.
You can configure zls by providing a zls.json file in the same directory as the executable.
The following options are currently available.
| Option | Type | Default value | What it Does |
|---|---|---|---|
enable_snippets |
bool |
true |
Enables snippet completion, set to false for compatibility with language clients that do not support snippets (such as ale). |
zig_lib_path |
?[]const u8 |
null |
zig library path, used to analyze std library imports. |
warn_style |
bool |
false |
Enables warnings for style guideline mismatches |
zls is in its early stages, with a full analysis/completion engine coming soon, but it is still usable.
Install the zls-vscode extension from here.
