β Viability Checklist
- This wouldn't be a breaking change in existing TypeScript/JavaScript code
- This wouldn't change the runtime behavior of existing JavaScript code
- This could be implemented without emitting different JS based on the types of the expressions
- This isn't a runtime feature (e.g. library functionality, non-ECMAScript syntax with JavaScript output, new syntax sugar for JS, etc.)
- This isn't a request to add a new utility type: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/wiki/No-New-Utility-Types
- This feature would agree with the rest of our Design Goals: https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/wiki/TypeScript-Design-Goals
β Suggestion
typescript LanguageService add provideDocumentSymbols:
interface LanguageService {
...
provideDocumentSymbols: (fileName: string) => SymbolInformation[]
}
π Motivating Example
Provide symbols for documents in ts plugin, not relying on LSP/Editor
π» Use Cases
Embedded language language provides merge symbols and ts symbols
- ts-gem-plugin html template symbols
- typescript-lit-html-plugin html template symbols
