120# Code Style & Review Process
121
122Our approach to "clean code" is two fold:
123
124* We generally don't block PRs on style changes.
125* At the same time, all code in rust-analyzer is constantly refactored.
126
127It is explicitly OK for reviewer to flag only some nits in the PR, and than send a follow up cleanup PR for things which are easier to explain by example, cc-ing the original author.
128Sending small cleanup PRs (like rename a single local variable) is encouraged.
129
130## Scale of Changes
131
132Everyone knows that it's better to send small & focused pull requests.
133The problem is, sometimes you *have* to, eg, rewrite the whole compiler, and that just doesn't fit into a set of isolated PRs.
134
135The main thing too keep an eye on is the boundaries between various components.
136There are three kinds of changes:
137
1381. Internals of a single component are changed.
139 Specifically, you don't change any `pub` items.
140 A good example here would be an addition of a new assist.
141
1422. API of a component is expanded.
143 Specifically, you add a new `pub` function which wasn't there before.
144 A good example here would be expansion of assist API, for example, to implement lazy assists or assists groups.
145
1463. A new dependency between components is introduced.
147 Specifically, you add a `pub use` reexport from another crate or you add a new line to `[dependencies]` section of `Cargo.toml`.
148 A good example here would be adding reference search capability to the assists crates.
149
150For the first group, the change is generally merged as long as:
151
152* it works for the happy case,
153* it has tests,
154* it doesn't panic for unhappy case.
155
156For the second group, the change would be subjected to quite a bit of scrutiny and iteration.
157The new API needs to be right (or at least easy to change later).
158The actual implementation doesn't matter that much.
159It's very important to minimize the amount of changed lines of code for changes of the second kind.
160Often, you start doing change of the first kind, only to realise that you need to elevate to a change of the second kind.
161In this case, we'll probably ask you to split API changes into a separate PR.
162
163Changes of the third group should be pretty rare, so we don't specify any specific process for them.
164That said, adding an innocent-looking `pub use` is a very simple way to break encapsulation, keep an eye on it!
165
166Note: if you enjoyed this abstract hand-waving about boundaries, you might appreciate

168
169## Order of Imports
170
171We separate import groups with blank lines
172
173```
174mod x;
175mod y;
176
177use std::{ ... }
178
179use crate_foo::{ ... }
180use crate_bar::{ ... }
181
182use crate::{}
183
184use super::{} // but prefer `use crate::`
185```
186
187## Order of Items
188
189Optimize for the reader who sees the file for the first time, and wants to get the general idea about what's going on.
190People read things from top to bottom, so place most important things first.
191
192Specifically, if all items except one are private, always put the non-private item on top.
193
194Put `struct`s and `enum`s first, functions and impls last.
195
196Do
197
198```
199// Good
200struct Foo {
201 bars: Vec<Bar>
202}
203
204struct Bar;
205```
206
207rather than
208
209```
210// Not as good
211struct Bar;
212
213struct Foo {
214 bars: Vec<Bar>
215}
216```
217
218## Documentation
219
220For `.md` and `.adoc` files, prefer a sentence-per-line format, don't wrap lines.
221If the line is too long, you want to split the sentence in two :-)

121**Source:** https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer/blob/master/crates/ra_ide/src/completion.rs#L38[completion.rs]
122
123In addition to usual reference completion, rust-analyzer provides some ✨magic✨
124completions as well:
125
126Keywords like `if`, `else` `while`, `loop` are completed with braces, and cursor
127is placed at the appropriate position. Even though `if` is easy to type, you
128still want to complete it, to get ` { }` for free! `return` is inserted with a
129space or `;` depending on the return type of the function.
130
131When completing a function call, `()` are automatically inserted. If a function
132takes arguments, the cursor is positioned inside the parenthesis.
133
134There are postfix completions, which can be triggered by typing something like
135`foo().if`. The word after `.` determines postfix completion. Possible variants are:
136
137- `expr.if` -> `if expr {}` or `if let ... {}` for `Option` or `Result`
138- `expr.match` -> `match expr {}`
139- `expr.while` -> `while expr {}` or `while let ... {}` for `Option` or `Result`
140- `expr.ref` -> `&expr`
141- `expr.refm` -> `&mut expr`
142- `expr.not` -> `!expr`
143- `expr.dbg` -> `dbg!(expr)`
144
145There also snippet completions:
146
147.Expressions
148- `pd` -> `println!("{:?}")`
149- `ppd` -> `println!("{:#?}")`
150
151.Items
152- `tfn` -> `#[test] fn f(){}`
153- `tmod` ->
154```rust
155#[cfg(test)]
156mod tests {
157 use super::*;
158
159 #[test]
160 fn test_fn() {}
161}
162```
163
164
165=== Matching Brace
166**Source:** https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer/blob/master/crates/ra_ide/src/matching_brace.rs#L3[matching_brace.rs]
167
168If the cursor is on any brace (`<>(){}[]`) which is a part of a brace-pair,
169moves cursor to the matching brace. It uses the actual parser to determine
170braces, so it won't confuse generics with comparisons.

181
182Some features trigger on typing certain characters:
183
184- typing `let =` tries to smartly add `;` if `=` is followed by an existing expression
185- Enter inside comments automatically inserts `///`
186- typing `.` in a chain method call auto-indents

216**Source:** https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer/blob/master/crates/ra_ide/src/syntax_highlighting.rs#L33[syntax_highlighting.rs]
217
218rust-analyzer highlights the code semantically.
219For example, `bar` in `foo::Bar` might be colored differently depending on whether `Bar` is an enum or a trait.
220rust-analyzer does not specify colors directly, instead it assigns tag (like `struct`) and a set of modifiers (like `declaration`) to each token.
221It's up to the client to map those to specific colors.
222
223The general rule is that a reference to an entity gets colored the same way as the entity itself.
224We also give special modifier for `mut` and `&mut` local variables.

252=== Structural Seach and Replace
253**Source:** https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer/blob/master/crates/ra_ide/src/ssr.rs#L26[ssr.rs]
254
255Search and replace with named wildcards that will match any expression.
256The syntax for a structural search replace command is `<search_pattern> ==>> <replace_pattern>`.
257A `$<name>:expr` placeholder in the search pattern will match any expression and `$<name>` will reference it in the replacement.
258Available via the command `rust-analyzer.ssr`.
259
260```rust
261// Using structural search replace command [foo($a:expr, $b:expr) ==>> ($a).foo($b)]
262
263// BEFORE
264String::from(foo(y + 5, z))
265

267String::from((y + 5).foo(z))

279
280Uses fuzzy-search to find types, modules and functions by name across your
281project and dependencies. This is **the** most useful feature, which improves code
282navigation tremendously. It mostly works on top of the built-in LSP
283functionality, however `#` and `*` symbols can be used to narrow down the
284search. Specifically,
285
286- `Foo` searches for `Foo` type in the current workspace
287- `foo#` searches for `foo` function in the current workspace
288- `Foo*` searches for `Foo` type among dependencies, including `stdlib`
289- `foo#*` searches for `foo` function among dependencies
290
291That is, `#` switches from "types" to all symbols, `*` switches from the current
292workspace to dependencies.

272== Non-Cargo Based Projects
273
274rust-analyzer does not require Cargo.
275However, if you use some other build system, you'll have to describe the structure of your project for rust-analyzer in the `rust-project.json` format:
276
277[source,TypeScript]
278----
279interface JsonProject {
280 /// The set of paths containing the crates for this project.
281 /// Any `Crate` must be nested inside some `root`.
282 roots: string[];
283 /// The set of crates comprising the current project.
284 /// Must include all transitive dependencies as well as sysroot crate (libstd, libcore and such).
285 crates: Crate[];
286}
287
288interface Crate {
289 /// Path to the root module of the crate.
290 root_module: string;
291 /// Edition of the crate.
292 edition: "2015" | "2018";
293 /// Dependencies
294 deps: Dep[];
295 /// The set of cfgs activated for a given crate, like `["unix", "feature=foo", "feature=bar"]`.
296 cfg: string[];
297
298 /// value of the OUT_DIR env variable.
299 out_dir?: string;
300 /// For proc-macro crates, path to compiles proc-macro (.so file).
301 proc_macro_dylib_path?: string;
302}
303
304interface Dep {
305 /// Index of a crate in the `crates` array.
306 crate: number,
307 /// Name as should appear in the (implicit) `extern crate name` declaration.
308 name: string,
309}
310----
311
312This format is provisional and subject to change.
313Specifically, the `roots` setup will be different eventually.
314
315There are tree ways to feed `rust-project.json` to rust-analyzer:
316
317* Place `rust-project.json` file at the root of the project, and rust-anlayzer will discover it.
318* Specify `"rust-analyzer.linkedProjects": [ "path/to/rust-project.json" ]` in the settings (and make sure that your LSP client sends settings as a part of initialize request).
319* Specify `"rust-analyzer.linkedProjects": [ { "roots": [...], "crates": [...] }]` inline.
320
321See https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-project.json-example for a small example.
