1449: Swallow expected `rustfmt` errors r=matklad a=etaoins My workflow in Visual Studio Code + Rust Analyzer has become: 1. Make a change to Rust source code using all the analysis magic 2. Save the file to trigger `cargo watch`. I have format on save enabled for all file types so this also runs `rustfmt` 3. Fix any diagnostics that `cargo watch` finds Unfortunately if the Rust source has any syntax errors the act of saving will pop up a scary "command has failed" message and will switch to the "Output" tab to show the `rustfmt` error and exit code. I did a quick survey of what other Language Servers do in this case. Both the JSON and TypeScript servers will swallow the error and return success. This is consistent with how I remember my workflow in those languages. The syntax error will show up as a diagnostic so it should be clear why the file isn't formatting. I checked the `rustfmt` source code and while it does distinguish "parse errors" from "operational errors" internally they both result in exit status of 1. However, more catastrophic errors (missing `rustfmt`, SIGSEGV, etc) will return 127+ error codes which we can distinguish from a normal failure. This changes our handler to log an info message and feign success if `rustfmt` exits with status 1. Another option I considered was only swallowing the error if the formatting request came from format-on-save. However, the Language Server Protocol doesn't seem to distinguish those cases.

Rust Analyzer
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/working-groups/rls-2.0
Work on the Rust Analyzer is sponsored by
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 (
code
should be in path)
For setup for other editors, see ./docs/user.
# 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 install-code
# alternatively, install only the server. Binary name is `ra_lsp_server`.
$ cargo install-lsp
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.
