Can I use their implementation with emacs-lsp or similar? I can't find a download link for their language server as a standalone install.

- edmccard 8y agoFTA: It is available first today in the July release of the Python Extension for Visual Studio Code, and we will later release it as a standalone component that you can use with any tool that works with the Language Server Protocol.
- lozenge 8y agoThe build instructions give a dll and json files, not sure how to use that. https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-python/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING%20-%20LANGUAGE%20SERVER.md https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-python/blob/master/CONTR...
- brettcannon 8y agoIf you look under the Visual Studio 2017 instructions it mentions where to copy those files into the extension so they will get used.
- giancarlostoro 8y agoThat's the idea behind the Language Server Protocol, and it seems they will later based on a sibling comment. I love that Microsoft helped to pioneer LSP (not Lumpy Space Princess) because there's too much of a duplicated effort done for other editors. I hope in the future they can team up with JetBrains and make the protocol even more awesome.
- brettcannon 8y agoThe protocol itself is open source: https://github.com/Microsoft/language-server-protocol https://github.com/Microsoft/language-server-protocol . I'm sure the folks in charge of it would be happy to talk to PyCharm if they wanted to contribute.
- ygra 8y agoJetBeains wasn't very interested in this in the past, mostly because it duplicates effort they've already invested and their solution seems to be better. For now.
