This PR exposes the new TypeScript-based language server as an npm package (tentatively named mo-ide) which can be used in place of the original binary which powers the dfx _language-service subcommand.

TODO:

  • Bundle the language server as a separate CLI
  • Support different transport options (currently stdio, node-ipc, and socket from vscode-languageserver)
  • Build standalone mo-ide binaries for GitHub releases (using pkg)
  • Test the language server on Vim / Emacs
  • Include patches for Vim / Emacs if necessary
  • Add step-by-step instructions for configuring Vim / Emacs

Please leave a comment if you are interested in using the Motoko language server with Vim or Emacs. Thanks!

@ggreif, would you be interested in helping me test this language server on Emacs at some point (low priority)?

I would like to use the Motoko Language Server for Zed.
Is there anything I can do to help?

@rvanasa mo-ide is being removed. Relevant development for this effort?

We could revisit this, although it would be good for someone familiar with Vim / Emacs / Zed to be part of the effort to make sure that it works as expected.
