Providing intelligent code completion and "find definition" for Rust via Racer.
Note: This is a fork of Ebudenko's racer plugin. His repo was unmaintained, and I merged some pull requests that I wanted into my fork.
- Ensure you have the Atom package language-rust installed and active.
- Ensure you have Racer properly installed.
- Ensure you have a copy of the rustc source code extracted on your disk.
- Install this package via Atom's package manager:
- go to
Preferences > Packages, search forracer, and install it - OR use the command line
apm install racer).
go to Preferences > Packages, search for racer, and click Settings
| Display Name | Description | Required | Name |
|---|---|---|---|
| Path to the Racer executable | Full path (including executable) of Racer's binary (e.g. /Users/me/racer/bin/racer or c:\racer\bin\racer.exe) |
YES |
racer.racerBinPath |
| Path to the Rust source code directory | Should point to the rustc source directory (e.g. /Users/me/code/rust/src/) |
YES |
racer.rustSrcPath |
| Autocomplete Scope Blacklist | Scopes for which no suggestions will be made (e.g. .source.go .comment) |
NO |
racer.autocompleteBlacklist |
| Show position for editor with definition | Can be Right or New. If Right is selected and your view is vertically split, the item will be open in the rightmost pane of the current active pane's row. |
NO |
racer.show |
Just type some code in a .rs file, and racer will automatically show you some suggestions (using the autocomplete+ package provided by Atom).
You can also find definition of your current element by pushing the F3 key.
Your configuration is probably wrong:
- The path to Racer has to point to the Racer binary executable (this is NOT a directory we request here).
- The Rustc source has to point to the base directory of the source code.
- The Atom package language-rust is installed and active.
