Svelte Language Server

A language server (implementing the language server protocol) for Svelte.

Requires Node 12 or later.

What is a language server?

From https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/overview

The idea behind a Language Server is to provide the language-specific smarts inside a server that can communicate with development tooling over a protocol that enables inter-process communication.

In simpler terms, this allows editor and addon devs to add support for svelte specific 'smarts' (e.g. diagnostics, autocomplete, etc) to any editor without reinventing the wheel.

Features

Svelte language server is under development and the list of features will surely grow over time.

Currently Supported:

  • Svelte
  • HTML (via vscode-html-languageservice)
    • Hover info
    • Autocompletions
    • Emmet
    • Symbols in Outline panel
  • CSS / SCSS / LESS (via vscode-css-languageservice)
    • Diagnostic messages for syntax and lint errors
    • Hover info
    • Autocompletions
    • Formatting (via prettier)
    • Emmet
    • Color highlighting and color picker
    • Symbols in Outline panel
  • TypeScript / JavaScript (via TypeScript)
    • Diagnostics messages for syntax errors, semantic errors, and suggestions
    • Hover info
    • Formatting (via prettier)
    • Symbols in Outline panel
    • Autocompletions
    • Go to definition
    • Code Actions

How can I use it?

Install a plugin for your editor:

Settings

The language server has quite a few settings to toggle features. They are listed below. When using the VS Code extension, you can set these through the settings UI or in the settings.json using the keys mentioned below.

When using the language server directly, put the settings as JSON inside initializationOptions.configuration for the initialize command. When using the didChangeConfiguration command, pass the JSON directly. The language server also accepts configuration for Emmet (key: emmet; settings reference), Prettier (key: prettier), CSS (key: css / less / scss; settings reference) and TypeScript (keys: javascript and typescript for JS/TS config; settings reference).

Example:

Init:

{
    initializationOptions: {
        configuration: {
            svelte: {
                plugin: {
                    css: { enable: false },
                    // ...
                }
            },
            typescript: { /* .. */ },
            javascript: { /* .. */ },
            prettier: { /* .. */ },
            // ...
        }
    }
}

Update:

{
    svelte: {
        plugin: {
            css: { enable: false },
            // ...
        }
    },
    typescript: { /* .. */ },
    javascript: { /* .. */ },
    prettier: { /* .. */ },
    // ...
    }
}
