# LSP Extensions
This document describes LSP extensions used by rust-analyzer.
It's a best effort document, when in doubt, consult the source (and send a PR with clarification ;-) ).
We aim to upstream all non Rust-specific extensions to the protocol, but this is not a top priority.
All capabilities are enabled via `experimental` field of `ClientCapabilities` or `ServerCapabilities`.
Requests which we hope to upstream live under `experimental/` namespace.
Requests, which are likely to always remain specific to `rust-analyzer` are under `rust-analyzer/` namespace.
## Snippet `TextEdit`
**Issue:** https://github.com/microsoft/language-server-protocol/issues/724
**Client Capability:** `{ "snippetTextEdit": boolean }`
If this capability is set, `WorkspaceEdit`s returned from `codeAction` requests might contain `SnippetTextEdit`s instead of usual `TextEdit`s:
```typescript
interface SnippetTextEdit extends TextEdit {
insertTextFormat?: InsertTextFormat;
}
```
```typescript
export interface TextDocumentEdit {
textDocument: VersionedTextDocumentIdentifier;
edits: (TextEdit | SnippetTextEdit)[];
}
```
When applying such code action, the editor should insert snippet, with tab stops and placeholder.
At the moment, rust-analyzer guarantees that only a single edit will have `InsertTextFormat.Snippet`.
### Example
"Add `derive`" code action transforms `struct S;` into `#[derive($0)] struct S;`
### Unresolved Questions
* Where exactly are `SnippetTextEdit`s allowed (only in code actions at the moment)?
* Can snippets span multiple files (so far, no)?
## `CodeAction` Groups
**Issue:** https://github.com/microsoft/language-server-protocol/issues/994
**Client Capability:** `{ "codeActionGroup": boolean }`
If this capability is set, `CodeAction` returned from the server contain an additional field, `group`:
```typescript
interface CodeAction {
title: string;
group?: string;
...
}
```
All code-actions with the same `group` should be grouped under single (extendable) entry in lightbulb menu.
The set of actions `[ { title: "foo" }, { group: "frobnicate", title: "bar" }, { group: "frobnicate", title: "baz" }]` should be rendered as
```
💡
+-------------+
| foo |
+-------------+-----+
| frobnicate >| bar |
+-------------+-----+
| baz |
+-----+
```
Alternatively, selecting `frobnicate` could present a user with an additional menu to choose between `bar` and `baz`.
### Example
```rust
fn main() {
let x: Entry/*cursor here*/ = todo!();
}
```
Invoking code action at this position will yield two code actions for importing `Entry` from either `collections::HashMap` or `collection::BTreeMap`, grouped under a single "import" group.
### Unresolved Questions
* Is a fixed two-level structure enough?
* Should we devise a general way to encode custom interaction protocols for GUI refactorings?
## Join Lines
**Issue:** https://github.com/microsoft/language-server-protocol/issues/992
**Server Capability:** `{ "joinLines": boolean }`
This request is send from client to server to handle "Join Lines" editor action.
**Method:** `experimental/JoinLines`
**Request:**
```typescript
interface JoinLinesParams {
textDocument: TextDocumentIdentifier,
/// Currently active selections/cursor offsets.
/// This is an array to support multiple cursors.
ranges: Range[],
}
```
**Response:**
```typescript
TextEdit[]
```
### Example
```rust
fn main() {
/*cursor here*/let x = {
92
};
}
```
`experimental/joinLines` yields (curly braces are automagiacally removed)
```rust
fn main() {
let x = 92;
}
```
### Unresolved Question
* What is the position of the cursor after `joinLines`?
Currently this is left to editor's discretion, but it might be useful to specify on the server via snippets.
However, it then becomes unclear how it works with multi cursor.
## Structural Search Replace (SSR)
**Server Capability:** `{ "ssr": boolean }`
This request is send from client to server to handle structural search replace -- automated syntax tree based transformation of the source.
**Method:** `experimental/ssr`
**Request:**
```typescript
interface SsrParams {
/// Search query.
/// The specific syntax is specified outside of the protocol.
query: string,
/// If true, only check the syntax of the query and don't compute the actual edit.
parseOnly: bool,
}
```
**Response:**
```typescript
WorkspaceEdit
```
### Example
SSR with query `foo($a:expr, $b:expr) ==>> ($a).foo($b)` will transform, eg `foo(y + 5, z)` into `(y + 5).foo(z)`.
### Unresolved Question
* Probably needs search without replace mode
* Needs a way to limit the scope to certain files.
