inf6langtools v0.1.0-alpha
inf6langtools README
Inform 6 extension is a client for the ls4Inform Language Server that provides language utilities such as outliner, cross-reference etc. It is powered by the XText Framework.
Installation
- Download the file https://github.com/toerob/inf6langtools/blob/master/inf6langtools-0.1.0-alpha.vsix
- Install the plugin by opening the extension pane to the left, select the top bar menu button (...) and choose "Install from VSIX..."
- Select the downloaded file and you are good to go
NOTE: Library folders (or any unexplicit include directive) will need to be referenced via comments with compiler directive include_path or language at the top of the source file, the same way done in inform source files, e.g:
!% +include_path=../../lib/,/usr/local/share/inform/lib/
The search paths can be both relative or absolute but cannot have any spaces separating them.
Features
The extension is bundled with an LSP implementation written in Java (with XText) that can be used with any editor supporting the Language Server Protocol Source code at: https://github.com/toerob/ls4inform6
- Outliner with all objects
- Go to reference and find all references between included files via class name, direction properties (n_to, s_to etc) and attributes
Code syntax checks with warnings on wrongly typed object definitions.
Disclaimer
This is not a fully featured language server yet. It is more or less an outliner in its current state, with additional bonus features such as cross-references.
Requirements
Java JRE 10.
