gotlin/tools/vscode-gotlin

vscode-gotlin

Minimal VS Code extension for .gt files.

It does two things:

• registers .gt as the gotlin language
• launches gotlin-lsp over stdio

It also includes:

• syntax highlighting
• bracket/comment configuration
• basic Gotlin snippets
• optional gopls bridge for hover/definition on Go-imported symbols

Setup

From this folder:

npm install
npm run build

Then in VS Code:

1. Open this folder as an extension project.
2. Press F5 to launch an Extension Development Host.
3. Open your Gotlin workspace in that host.

Server path

By default the extension looks for:

<workspace>/bin/gotlin-lsp

If your binary lives somewhere else, set:

"gotlin.serverPath": "/absolute/path/to/gotlin-lsp"

If gopls is not on your PATH, also set:

"gotlin.goplsPath": "/absolute/path/to/gopls"

Build the language server

From the repo root:

go build -o ./bin/gotlin-lsp ./cmd/gotlin-lsp
