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

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 :-)

12## `initializationOptions`
13
14As `initializationOptions`, `rust-analyzer` expects `"rust-analyzer"` section of the configuration.
15That is, `rust-analyzer` usually sends `"workspace/configuration"` request with `{ "items": ["rust-analyzer"] }` payload.
16`initializationOptions` should contain the same data that would be in the first item of the result.
17It's OK to not send anything, then all the settings would take their default values.
18However, some settings can not be changed after startup at the moment.

1This document is an index of features that the rust-analyzer language server
2provides. Shortcuts are for the default VS Code layout. If there's no shortcut,
3you can use <kbd>Ctrl+Shift+P</kbd> to search for the corresponding action.
4
5### Workspace Symbol <kbd>ctrl+t</kbd>
6
7Uses fuzzy-search to find types, modules and functions by name across your
8project and dependencies. This is **the** most useful feature, which improves code
9navigation tremendously. It mostly works on top of the built-in LSP
10functionality, however `#` and `*` symbols can be used to narrow down the
11search. Specifically,
12
13- `Foo` searches for `Foo` type in the current workspace
14- `foo#` searches for `foo` function in the current workspace
15- `Foo*` searches for `Foo` type among dependencies, including `stdlib`
16- `foo#*` searches for `foo` function among dependencies
17
18That is, `#` switches from "types" to all symbols, `*` switches from the current
19workspace to dependencies.
20
21### Document Symbol <kbd>ctrl+shift+o</kbd>
22
23Provides a tree of the symbols defined in the file. Can be used to
24
25* fuzzy search symbol in a file (super useful)
26* draw breadcrumbs to describe the context around the cursor
27* draw outline of the file
28
29### On Typing Assists
30
31Some features trigger on typing certain characters:
32
33- typing `let =` tries to smartly add `;` if `=` is followed by an existing expression
34- Enter inside comments automatically inserts `///`
35- typing `.` in a chain method call auto-indents
36
37### Extend Selection
38
39Extends the current selection to the encompassing syntactic construct
40(expression, statement, item, module, etc). It works with multiple cursors. This
41is a relatively new feature of LSP:
42https://github.com/Microsoft/language-server-protocol/issues/613, check your
43editor's LSP library to see if this feature is supported.
44
45### Go to Definition
46
47Navigates to the definition of an identifier.
48
49### Go to Implementation
50
51Navigates to the impl block of structs, enums or traits. Also implemented as a code lens.
52
53### Go to Type Defintion
54
55Navigates to the type of an identifier.
56
57### Commands <kbd>ctrl+shift+p</kbd>
58
59#### Run
60
61Shows a popup suggesting to run a test/benchmark/binary **at the current cursor
62location**. Super useful for repeatedly running just a single test. Do bind this
63to a shortcut!
64
65#### Parent Module
66
67Navigates to the parent module of the current module.
68
69#### Matching Brace
70
71If the cursor is on any brace (`<>(){}[]`) which is a part of a brace-pair,
72moves cursor to the matching brace. It uses the actual parser to determine
73braces, so it won't confuse generics with comparisons.
74
75#### Join Lines
76
77Join selected lines into one, smartly fixing up whitespace and trailing commas.
78
79#### Show Syntax Tree
80
81Shows the parse tree of the current file. It exists mostly for debugging
82rust-analyzer itself.
83
84#### Expand Macro Recursively
85
86Shows the full macro expansion of the macro at current cursor.
87
88#### Status
89
90Shows internal statistic about memory usage of rust-analyzer.
91
92#### Show RA Version
93
94Show current rust-analyzer version.
95
96#### Toggle inlay hints
97
98Toggle inlay hints view for the current workspace.
99It is recommended to assign a shortcut for this command to quickly turn off
100inlay hints when they prevent you from reading/writing the code.
101
102#### Run Garbage Collection
103
104Manually triggers GC.
105
106#### Start Cargo Watch
107
108Start `cargo watch` for live error highlighting. Will prompt to install if it's not already installed.
109
110#### Stop Cargo Watch
111
112Stop `cargo watch`.
113
114#### Structural Seach and Replace
115
116Search and replace with named wildcards that will match any expression.
117The syntax for a structural search replace command is `<search_pattern> ==>> <replace_pattern>`. A `$<name>:expr` placeholder in the search pattern will match any expression and `$<name>` will reference it in the replacement. Available via the command `rust-analyzer.ssr`.
118
119```rust
120// Using structural search replace command [foo($a:expr, $b:expr) ==>> ($a).foo($b)]
121
122// BEFORE
123String::from(foo(y + 5, z))
124
125// AFTER
126String::from((y + 5).foo(z))
127```
128
129### Assists (Code Actions)
130
131Assists, or code actions, are small local refactorings, available in a particular context.
132They are usually triggered by a shortcut or by clicking a light bulb icon in the editor.
133
134See [assists.md](./assists.md) for the list of available assists.
135
136### Magic Completions
137
138In addition to usual reference completion, rust-analyzer provides some ✨magic✨
139completions as well:
140
141Keywords like `if`, `else` `while`, `loop` are completed with braces, and cursor
142is placed at the appropriate position. Even though `if` is easy to type, you
143still want to complete it, to get ` { }` for free! `return` is inserted with a
144space or `;` depending on the return type of the function.
145
146When completing a function call, `()` are automatically inserted. If a function
147takes arguments, the cursor is positioned inside the parenthesis.
148
149There are postfix completions, which can be triggered by typing something like
150`foo().if`. The word after `.` determines postfix completion. Possible variants are:
151
152- `expr.if` -> `if expr {}` or `if let ... {}` for `Option` or `Result`
153- `expr.match` -> `match expr {}`
154- `expr.while` -> `while expr {}` or `while let ... {}` for `Option` or `Result`
155- `expr.ref` -> `&expr`
156- `expr.refm` -> `&mut expr`
157- `expr.not` -> `!expr`
158- `expr.dbg` -> `dbg!(expr)`
159
160There also snippet completions:
161
162#### Inside Expressions
163
164- `pd` -> `println!("{:?}")`
165- `ppd` -> `println!("{:#?}")`
166
167#### Inside Modules
168
169- `tfn` -> `#[test] fn f(){}`
170- `tmod` ->
171```rust
172#[cfg(test)]
173mod tests {
174 use super::*;
175
176 #[test]
177 fn test_fn() {}
178}
179```
180
181### Code Highlighting
182
183Experimental feature to let rust-analyzer highlight Rust code instead of using the
184default highlighter.
185
186#### Rainbow Highlighting
187
188Experimental feature that, given code highlighting using rust-analyzer is
189active, will pick unique colors for identifiers.
190
191### Code hints
192
193Rust-analyzer has two types of hints to show the information about the code:
194
195* hover hints, appearing on hover on any element.
196
197These contain extended information on the hovered language item.
198
199* inlay hints, shown near the element hinted directly in the editor.
200
201Two types of inlay hints are displayed currently:
202
203* type hints, displaying the minimal information on the type of the expression (if the information is available)
204* method chaining hints, type information for multi-line method chains
205* parameter name hints, displaying the names of the parameters in the corresponding methods
206
207#### VS Code
208
209In VS Code, the following settings can be used to configure the inlay hints:
210
211* `rust-analyzer.inlayHints.typeHints` - enable hints for inferred types.
212* `rust-analyzer.inlayHints.chainingHints` - enable hints for inferred types on method chains.
213* `rust-analyzer.inlayHints.parameterHints` - enable hints for function parameters.
214* `rust-analyzer.inlayHints.maxLength` — shortens the hints if their length exceeds the value specified. If no value is specified (`null`), no shortening is applied.
215
216**Note:** VS Code does not have native support for inlay hints [yet](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/16221) and the hints are implemented using decorations.
217This approach has limitations, the caret movement and bracket highlighting near the edges of the hint may be weird:

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() {}

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.

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.

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`.

260```rust
261// Using structural search replace command [foo($a:expr, $b:expr) ==>> ($a).foo($b)]

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.
