L

Documentation

Overview

The program L sends messages to the Language Server Protocol proxy server acme-lsp.

L is usually run from within the acme text editor, where $winid environment variable is set to the ID of currently focused window. It sends this ID to acme-lsp, which uses it to compute the context for LSP commands.

If L is run outside of acme (therefore $winid is not set), L will attempt to find the focused window ID by connecting to acmefocused (https://godoc.org/github.com/fhs/acme-lsp/cmd/acmefocused).

Usage: L <sub-command> [args...]

List of sub-commands:

	comp [-e]
		Print candidate completions at the cursor position. If
		-e (edit) flag is given and there is only one candidate,
		the completion is applied instead of being printed.

	def [-p]
		Find where the symbol at the cursor position is defined
		and send the location to the plumber. If -p flag is given,
		the location is printed to stdout instead.

	fmt
		Organize imports and format current window buffer.

	hov
		Show more information about the symbol under the cursor
		("hover").

	impls
		List implementation location(s) of the symbol under the cursor.

	refs
		List locations where the symbol under the cursor is used
		("references").

	rn <newname>
		Rename the symbol under the cursor to newname.

	sig
		Show signature help for the function, method, etc. under
		the cursor.

	syms
		List symbols in the current file.

	type [-p]
		Find where the type of the symbol at the cursor position
		is defined and send the location to the plumber. If -p
		flag is given, the location is printed to stdout instead.

	assist [comp|hov|sig]
		A new window is created where completion (comp), hover
		(hov), or signature help (sig) output is shown depending
		on the cursor position in the focused window and the
		text surrounding the cursor. If the optional argument is
		given, the output will be limited to only that command.
		Note: this is a very experimental feature, and may not
		be very useful in practice.

	ws
		List current set of workspace directories.

	ws+ [directories...]
		Add given directories to the set of workspace directories.
		Current working directory is added if no directory is specified.

	ws- [directories...]
		Remove given directories to the set of workspace directories.
		Current working directory is removed if no directory is specified.
