In-browser editors

[hatemhosny]

Great work. Thank you very much for such a great project.

Would you consider adding the LSP to Monaco editor and/or CodeMirror?
This allows running it in the browser (e.g. in playgrounds and cloud IDEs).

I believe there is an intention to provide a wasm integration. Would this allow such use?

Thank you.

I still need to look into this properly, but afaik Monaco can connect to a remote language server and that would make it possible already today.

The Wasm build would enable us to run the server within the browser too. However, we cannot connect to a real database due to browser restriction. My goal here is to connect to a Pglite instance eventually.

New to lsp implementation but I tried connecting it with Codemirror and could not get autocomplete to work. Would love if you can share a small snippet for CodeMirror or Monaco.

Did you check this repo? https://github.com/TypeFox/monaco-languageclient

It seems to provide exactly the bridge you need.

You may find this useful for codemirror6

Also, this implements TypeScript autocomplete, lint and hover info for codemirror6. However they did not use LSP

for whatever it's worth, as soon as a wasm build is published I plan to integrate it into https://postgres.garden
