How to use with editors

VSCode

VSCode extension is developed as part of this project and can be downloaded from marketplace here.

Vim

• npm install -g "awk-language-server@>=0.5.2"
• Choose and install plugin with support for LSP (some examples are below).
• Configure plugin to use awk-language-server.

ALE

Add following to .vimrc:

call ale#linter#Define('awk', {
\   'name': 'awk-language-server',
\   'lsp': 'stdio',
\   'executable': 'awk-language-server',
\   'command': '%e',
\   'project_root': { _ -> expand('%p:h') }
\})

Note that with such configuration project_root will be set to directory containing opened awk file.

CoC

Edit config with :CocConfig command and add the following:

{
  "languageserver": {
    "awk": {
      "command": "awk-language-server",
      "args": [],
      "filetypes": ["awk"]
    }
  }
}

vim-lsp

It works partially unless support for multi-root workspaces is implemented by vim-lsp.

Add to your .vimrc:

if executable('awk-language-server')
    au User lsp_setup call lsp#register_server({
        \ 'name': 'awk-language-server',
        \ 'cmd': {server_info->['awk-language-server']},
        \ 'allowlist': ['awk'],
        \ })
endif

Nvim

nvim-lspconfig

A default config for awk-language-server was merged into nvim-lspconfig. It works only if workspaceFolders requests are handled and a default handler for these was only just set to be added upstream in Neovim 0.7, so the config itself is gated for use only in Neovim >= v0.7. For users below that version, please use a manual config that handles these requests by adding the following to your init.vim (or init.lua):

lua << EOF
local configs = require('lspconfig.configs')
local lspconfig = require('lspconfig')
if not configs.awklsp then
  configs.awklsp = {
    default_config = {
      cmd = { 'awk-language-server' },
      filetypes = { 'awk' },
      single_file_support = true,
      handlers = {
        ['workspace/workspaceFolders'] = function()
          return {{
            uri = 'file://' .. vim.fn.getcwd(),
            name = 'current_dir',
          }}
        end
      }
    },
  }
end
lspconfig.awklsp.setup{}
EOF

Notes

AWK Language Server supports AWKPATH. If you prefer to place all your awk libs in some directory and then @include it without dir name, then simply pass this env variable to your editor of choice.

AWKPATH=./include vim main.vim

or

export AWKPATH=./include
vim main.vim
