Racket LSP and Visual Studio Code

[DanL-WS]

Greetings -

I find myself working on Racket files with devs who use Visual Studio Code.  Does anyone have a good sense of what would be required to fold a working Racket LSP implementation into a VS Code plugin? I assume https://github.com/cfinegan/atom-ide-racket would be a good starting point...

Maybe someone has put some work in this direction already?

Thanks,

Dan

There are at least two relevant packages on pkgs.racket-lang.org:

racket-langserver

and

racket-language-server

The first one has 118 commits, last one in May, some failing tests. The second one has 50 commits, also most recently in May, and doesn’t build (according to the CI engine). Perhaps most importantly, Jay McCarthy is an author on the first one.

There is server implementation already like John mentioned. I don't
know if any client exist for vscode, but Microsoft has put in an
example repository for client/server:
https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-extension-samples/tree/master/lsp-sample/client
which should be easier to start with. I was able to make a basic Emacs
client by just invoking racket-langserver instead of example server.
