Pascal Hertleif 5075c77957 Use anyhow::Result in xtask, add contexts
This builds on #2231 but was actually done before that. You see, the
cause for #2231 was that I got this error message:

    Error: Error { kind: Io(Os { code: 2, kind: NotFound, message: "No such file or directory" }) }

Just switching to `anyhow::Result` got me stack traces (when setting
`RUST_LIB_BACKTRACE=1`) that at least showed

    stack backtrace:
      0: std::backtrace::Backtrace::create
      1: std::backtrace::Backtrace::capture
      2: anyhow::error::<impl core::convert::From<E> for anyhow::Error>::from
      3: xtask::install_server
      4: xtask::install
      5: xtask::main
      6: std::rt::lang_start::{{closure}}
      7: std::panicking::try::do_call
      8: __rust_maybe_catch_panic
      9: std::rt::lang_start_internal
      10: std::rt::lang_start
      11: main

With the added contexts (not at all exhaustive), the error became

    Error: install server

    Caused by:
        0: build AutoCfg with target directory
        1: No such file or directory (os error 2)

Since anyhow is such a small thing (no new transitive dependencies!),
and in general gives you `Result<T, Box<dyn Error>>` on steroids, I
think this a nice small change. The only slightly annoying thing was to
replace all the `Err(format!(…))?` calls (haven't even looked at whether
we can make it support wrapping strings though), but the `bail!` macro
is shorter anyway :)

Rust Analyzer

Build Status

Rust Analyzer is an experimental modular compiler frontend for the Rust language. It is a part of a larger rls-2.0 effort to create excellent IDE support for Rust. If you want to get involved, check the rls-2.0 working group in the compiler-team repository:

https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/tree/master/content/working-groups/rls-2.0

Work on the Rust Analyzer is sponsored by

Ferrous Systems

Language Server Quick Start

Rust Analyzer is a work-in-progress, so you'll have to build it from source, and you might encounter critical bugs. That said, it is complete enough to provide a useful IDE experience and some people use it as a daily driver.

To build rust-analyzer, you need:

  • latest stable rust for language server itself
  • latest stable npm and VS Code for VS Code extension

To quickly install rust-analyzer with VS Code extension with standard setup (code and cargo in $PATH, etc), use this:

# clone the repo
$ git clone https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer && cd rust-analyzer

# install both the language server and VS Code extension
$ cargo xtask install

# alternatively, install only the server. Binary name is `ra_lsp_server`.
$ cargo xtask install --server

For non-standard setup of VS Code and other editors, see ./docs/user.

Documentation

If you want to contribute to rust-analyzer or just curious about how things work under the hood, check the ./docs/dev folder.

If you want to use rust-analyzer's language server with your editor of choice, check ./docs/user folder. It also contains some tips & tricks to help you be more productive when using rust-analyzer.
