374 | === Kate Text Editor | ||
375 | |||
376 | Support for the language server protocol is built into Kate through the LSP plugin, which is included by default. | ||
377 | It is preconfigured to use Rls for rust sources, but allows you to use rust-analyzer through a simple settings change. | ||
378 | In the LSP Client settings of Kate, copy the content of the third tab "default parameters" to the second tab "server configuration". | ||
379 | Then in the configuration replace: | ||

383 | "command": ["rls"], | ||

396 | "highlightingModeRegex": "^Rust$" | ||
397 | }, | ||
398 | ---- | ||
399 | Then click on apply, and restart the LSP server for your rust project. | ||
400 | |||
401 | == Troubleshooting | ||
402 | |||
403 | Start with looking at the rust-analyzer version. | ||
404 | Try **Rust Analyzer: Show RA Version** in VS Code and `rust-analyzer --version` in the command line. | ||
405 | If the date is more than a week ago, it's better to update rust-analyzer version. | ||
406 | |||
407 | The next thing to check would be panic messages in rust-analyzer's log. | ||
408 | Log messages are printed to stderr, in VS Code you can see then in the `Output > Rust Analyzer Language Server` tab of the panel. | ||
409 | To see more logs, set `RA_LOG=info` environmental variable. | ||
410 | |||
411 | To fully capture LSP messages between the editor and the server, set `"rust-analyzer.trace.server": "verbose"` config and check | ||
412 | `Output > Rust Analyzer Language Server Trace`. | ||
413 | |||
414 | The root cause for many "`nothing works`" problems is that rust-analyzer fails to understand the project structure. | ||
415 | To debug that, first note the `rust-analyzer` section in the status bar. | ||
416 | If it has an error icon and red, that's the problem (hover will have somewhat helpful error message). | ||
417 | **Rust Analyzer: Status** prints dependency information for the current file. | ||
418 | Finally, `RA_LOG=project_model=debug` enables verbose logs during project loading. | ||
419 | |||
420 | If rust-analyzer outright crashes, try running `rust-analyzer analysis-stats /path/to/project/directory/` on the command line. | ||
421 | This command type checks the whole project in batch mode bypassing LSP machinery. | ||
422 | |||
423 | When filing issues, it is useful (but not necessary) to try to minimize examples. | ||
424 | An ideal bug reproduction looks like this: | ||
425 | |||
426 | ```bash | ||
427 | $ git clone https://github.com/username/repo.git && cd repo && git switch --detach commit-hash | ||
428 | $ rust-analyzer --version | ||
429 | rust-analyzer dd12184e4 2021-05-08 dev | ||
430 | $ rust-analyzer analysis-stats . | ||
431 | 💀 💀 💀 | ||
432 | ``` | ||
433 | |||
434 | It is especially useful when the `repo` doesn't use external crates or the standard library. | ||
