LSP Devtools

This repo is an attempt at building the developer tooling I wished existed when I first started working on Esbonio.

This is a monorepo containing a number of sub-projects.

lib/lsp-devtools - A grab bag of development utilities

A collection of cli utilities aimed at aiding the development of language servers and/or clients.

• agent: Used to wrap an lsp server allowing messages sent between it and the client to be intercepted and inspected by other tools.
• record: Connects to an agent and record traffic to file, sqlite db or console. Supports filtering and formatting the output
• inspect: A browser devtools inspired TUI to visualise and inspecting LSP traffic. Powered by textual
• client: Experimental A TUI language client with built in inspect panel. Powered by textual

lib/pytest-lsp - End-to-end testing of language servers with pytest

pytest-lsp is a pytest plugin for writing end-to-end tests for language servers.

It works by running the language server in a subprocess and communicating with it over stdio, just like a real language client. This also means pytest-lsp can be used to test language servers written in any language - not just Python.

pytest-lsp relies on the pygls library for its language server protocol implementation.
