We've been considering removing workspace-hack for a couple reasons:
- Lukas ran into a situation where its build script seemed to be causing
spurious rebuilds. This seems more likely to be a cargo bug than an
issue with workspace-hack itself (given that it has an empty build
script), but we don't necessarily want to take the time to hunt that
down right now.
- Marshall mentioned hakari interacts poorly with automated crate
updates (in our case provided by rennovate) because you'd need to have
`cargo hakari generate && cargo hakari manage-deps` after their changes
and we prefer to not have actions that make commits.
Currently removing workspace-hack causes our workspace to grow from
~1700 to ~2000 crates being built (depending on platform), which is
mainly a problem when you're building the whole workspace or running
tests across the the normal and remote binaries (which is where
feature-unification nets us the most sharing). It doesn't impact
incremental times noticeably when you're just iterating on `-p zed`, and
we'll hopefully get these savings back in the future when
rust-lang/cargo#14774 (which re-implements the functionality of hakari)
is finished.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Closes #ISSUE
Improves the efficiency of our interactions with the Zed language
server. Previously, on startup and after every workspace configuration
changed notification, we would send >1MB of JSON Schemas to the JSON
LSP. The only reason this had to happen was due to the case where an
extension was installed that would result in a change to the JSON schema
for settings (i.e. added language, theme, etc).
This PR changes the behavior to use the URI LSP extensions of
`vscode-json-language-server` in order to send the server URI's that it
can then use to fetch the schemas as needed (i.e. the settings schema is
only generated and sent when `settings.json` is opened. This brings the
JSON we send to on startup and after every workspace configuration
changed notification down to a couple of KB.
Additionally, using another LSP extension request we can notify the
server when a schema has changed using the URI as a key, so we no longer
have to send a workspace configuration changed notification, and the
schema contents will only be re-requested and regenerated if the schema
is in use.
Release Notes:
- Improved the efficiency of communication with the builtin JSON LSP.
JSON Schemas are no longer sent to the JSON language server in their
full form. If you wish to view a builtin JSON schema in the language
server info tab of the language server logs (`dev: open language server
logs`), you must now use the `editor: open url` action with your cursor
over the URL that is sent to the server.
- Made it so that Zed urls (`zed://...`) are resolved locally when
opened within the editor instead of being resolved through the OS. Users
who could not previously open `zed://*` URLs in the editor can now do so
by pasting the link into a buffer and using the `editor: open url`
action (please open an issue if this is the case for you!).
