Enso Protocol Language Server Message Specification

This document contains the specification of the Enso protocol messages that pertain to the language server component. Please familiarise yourself with the common features of the protocol before reading this document.

For information on the design and architecture of the protocol, as well as its transport formats, please look here.

Types

There are a number of types that are used only within the language server's protocol messages. These are specified here.

ExpressionId

An identifier used for Enso expressions.

type ExpressionId = UUID;

ContextId

An identifier used for execution contexts.

type ContextId = UUID;

StackItem

A representation of an executable position in code, used by the execution APIs.

ExplicitCall is a call performed at the top of the stack, to initialize the context with first execution. The thisArgumentsPosition field can be omitted, in which case the context will try to infer the argument on a best-effort basis. E.g. for a module-level method, or a method defined on a parameter-less atom type, this will be substituted for the unambiguous singleton instance.

LocalCall is a call corresponding to "entering a function call".

type StackItem = ExplicitCall | LocalCall;

interface ExplicitCall {
  methodPointer: MethodPointer;
  thisArgumentExpression?: String;
  positionalArgumentsExpressions: String[];
}

interface LocalCall {
  expressionId: ExpressionId;
}

MethodPointer

Points to a method definition.

interface MethodPointer {
  /** The fully qualified module name. */
  module: String;

  /** The type on which the method is defined. */
  definedOnType: String;

  /** The method name. */
  name: String;
}

ProfilingInfo

Profiling information on an executed expression. It is implemented as a union as additional types of information will be added in the future.

type ProfilingInfo = ExecutionTime;

Where:

interface ExecutionTime {
  /** The time elapsed during the expression's evaluation, in nanoseconds */
  nanoTime: Number;
}

ExpressionUpdate

An update about the computed expression.

interface ExpressionUpdate {
  /**
   * The id of updated expression.
   */
  expressionId: ExpressionId;

  /**
   * The updated type of the expression.
   */
  type?: String;

  /**
   * The updated pointer to the method call.
   */
  methodPointer?: SuggestionId;

  /**
   * Profiling information about the expression.
   */
  profilingInfo: ProfilingInfo[];

  /**
   * Wether or not the expression's value came from the cache.
   */
  fromCache: bool;

  /**
   * An extra information about the computed value.
   */
  payload: ExpressionUpdatePayload;
}

ExpressionUpdatePayload

An information about the computed value.

type ExpressionUpdatePayload = Value | DatafalowError | Panic;

/**
 * An empty payload. Indicates that the expression was computed to a value.
 */
interface Value {}

/**
 * Indicates that the expression was computed to an error.
 */
interface DataflowError {
  /**
   * The list of expressions leading to the root error.
   */
  trace: ExpressionId[];
}

/**
 * Indicates that the expression failed with the runtime exception.
 */
interface Panic {
  /**
   * The error message.
   */
  message: String;

  /**
   * The stack trace.
   */
  trace: ExpressionId[];
}

VisualisationConfiguration

A configuration object for properties of the visualisation.

interface VisualisationConfiguration {
  /**
   * An execution context of the visualisation.
   */
  executionContextId: UUID;
  /**
   * A qualified name of the module containing the expression which creates
   * visualisation.

File

A representation of a file on disk.

Format

interface File {
  name: String; // Includes the file extension
  type: String;
}

DirectoryTree

A directory tree is a recursive type used to represent tree structures of files and directories. It contains files and symlinks in the files section and directories in the directories section. When the tree was requested with the parameter limiting the maximum depth, the bottom of the DirectoryTree will contain Directory node in the files section indicating that there is a directory, but the contents are unknown because we've reached the maximum depth.

Format

interface DirectoryTree {
  path: Path;
  name: String;
  files: [FileSystemObject];
  directories: [DirectoryTree];
}

FileAttributes

A description of the attributes of a file required by the IDE. These attributes may be expanded in future.

Format

/**
 * A representation of the attributes of a file.
 *
 * @param creationTime creation time
 * @param lastAccessTime last access time
 * @param lastModifiedTime last modified time
 * @param kind type of [[FileSystemObject]], can be: `Directory`, `File`, `Other`
 * @param byteSize size in bytes
 */
interface FileAttributes {

  byteSize: number;
}

UTCDateTime

Time in UTC time zone represented as ISO-8601 string

Format

type UTCDateTime = String;

FileEventKind

The kind of event being described for a watched file.

Format

type FileEventKind = Added | Removed | Modified;

Position

A representation of a position in a text file.

Format

interface Position {
  /**
   * Line position in a document (zero-based).
   */
  line: number;

  /**
   * Character offset on a line in a document (zero-based). Assuming that the
   * line is represented as a string, the `character` value represents the gap
   * between the `character` and `character + 1`.
   *
   * If the character value is greater than the line length it defaults back to
   * the line length.
   */
  character: number;
}

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

struct Position {
  // Line position in a document (zero-based)
  line: uint64;
  // Character offset on a line in a document (zero-based)
  character: uint64;
}

Range

A representation of a range of text in a text file.

Format

interface Range {
  /**
   * The range's start position.
   */
  start: Position;

  /**
   * The range's end position.
   */
  end: Position;
}

TextEdit

A representation of a change to a text file at a given position.

Format

interface TextEdit {
  range: Range;
  text: String;
}

DiagnosticType

The type of diagnostic message.

Format

type DiagnosticType = Error | Warning;

StackTraceElement

The frame of the stack trace. If the error refer to a builtin node, the path and location fields will be empty.

Format

interface StackTraceElement {
  /**
   * The function name containing the stack trace element.
   */
  functionName: String;

  /**
   * The location of the file.
   */
  path?: Path;

  /**
   * The location of the element in a file.
   */
  location?: Range;
}

Diagnostic

A diagnostic object is produced as a result of an execution attempt, like pushing the method pointer to a call stack, or editing the file. It can represent a compiler warning, a compilation error, or a runtime error. The message has optional path, location and stack fields containing information about the location in the source code.

In case of the runtime errors, the path and location fields may be empty if the error happens in a builtin node. Then, to locate the error in the code, you can use the stack field with a stack trace to find the first element with non-empty location (as the head of the stack will point to the builtin element).

Format

interface Diagnostic {
  /**
   * The type of diagnostic message.
   */
  kind: DiagnosticType;

  /**
   * The diagnostic message.
   */
  message: String;

  /**
   * The location of a file containing the diagnostic.
   */
  path?: Path;

  /**
   * The location of the diagnostic object in a file.
   */
  location?: Range;

  /**
   * The id of related expression.
   */
  expressionId?: ExpressionId;

  /**
   * The stack trace.
   */
  stack: StackTraceElement[];
}

SHA3-224

The SHA3-224 message digest encoded as a base16 string. For the equivalent structure on the binary connection please see EnsoDigest

Format

type SHA3-224 = String;

FileEdit

A representation of a batch of edits to a file, versioned.

SHA3-224 represents hash of the file contents. oldVersion is the version you're applying your update on, newVersion is what you compute as the hash after applying the changes. In other words,

hash(origFile) == oldVersion
hash(applyEdits(origFile, edits)) == newVersion

it's a sanity check to make sure that the diffs are applied consistently.

Consecutive text edits are applied sequentially, every one acting on the result of applying previous ones on the original buffer contents. In pseudocode:

applyEdits buffer [] = buffer
applyEdits buffer (first : rest) = applyEdits (applyTextEdit buffer first) rest

Format

interface FileEdit {
  path: Path;
  edits: [TextEdit];
  oldVersion: SHA3-224;
  newVersion: SHA3-224;
}

FileContents

A representation of the contents of a file.

Format

interface FileContents[T] {
  contents: T;
}

class TextFileContents extends FileContents[String];

FileSystemObject

A representation of what kind of type a filesystem object can be.

Format

type FileSystemObject = Directory | SymlinkLoop | File | Other;

/**
 * Represents a directory.
 *
 * @param name a name of the directory
 * @param path a path to the directory
 */
interface Directory {
  name: String;
  path: Path;
}

/**
 * Represents a symbolic link that creates a loop.
 *
 * @param name a name of the symlink
 * @param path a path to the symlink
 * @param target a target of the symlink. Since it is a loop,
 * target is a subpath of the symlink
 */
interface SymlinkLoop {
  name: String;
  path: Path;
  target: Path;
}

/**
 * Represents a file.
 *
 * @param name a name of the file
 * @param path a path to the file
 */
interface File {
  name: String;
  path: Path;
}

/**
 * Represents unrecognized object.
 * Example is a broken symbolic link.
 */
interface Other {
  name: String;
  path: Path;
}

WorkspaceEdit

This is a message to be specified once we better understand the intricacies of undo/redo.

The actionables for this section are:

  • Work out the design of this message.
  • Specify this message.

EnsoDigest

A counterpart to SHA3-224 for the binary connection, this is a standard message digest encoded using FlatBuffers.

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

table EnsoDigest {
  bytes : [ubyte];
}

Notes:

  • It is an error for the length of the vector bytes to not be equal to 28 (224 / 8). This is the length of the chosen digest in bytes.

FileSegment

A representation of a segment of a file for use in the binary protocol.

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

table FileSegment {
  // The file to access.
  path : Path (required);

  // The byte offset in the file to read from.
  byteOffset : ulong (required);

  // The number of bytes to read.
  length : ulong (required);
}

The byteOffset property is zero-indexed, so the last byte in the file is at index file.length - 1.

Connection Management

In order to properly set-up and tear-down the language server connection, we need a set of messages to control this process.

session/initProtocolConnection

This message initialises the connection used to send the textual protocol messages. This initialisation is important such that the client identifier can be correlated between the textual and data connections.

Parameters

{
  clientId: UUID;
}

Result

{
  contentRoots: [UUID];
}

session/initBinaryConnection

This message initialises the data connection used for transferring binary data between engine and clients. This initialisation is important such that the client identifier can be correlated between the data and textual connections.

  • Type: Request
  • Direction: Client -> Server
  • Connection: Data
  • Visibility: Public

Parameters

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

//A command initializing a data session.

File Management Operations

The language server also provides file operations to the IDE.

file/write

This requests that the file manager component write to a specified file with the specified contents.

  • Type: Request
  • Direction: Client -> Server

This request is explicitly allowed to write to files that do not exist, and will create them under such circumstances. If a file is recorded as 'open' by one of the clients, and another client attempts to write to that file, the write must fail.

Parameters

{
  path: Path;
  contents: FileContents[T];
}

Result

null;

Errors

file/read

This requests that the file manager component reads the contents of a specified file.

  • Type: Request
  • Direction: Client -> Server
  • Connection: Protocol
  • Visibility: Public

If the file is recorded as open by the language server, then the result will return the contents from the in-memory buffer rather than the file on disk.

Parameters

{
  path: Path;
}

Result

{
  contents: FileContents[T];
}

Errors

file/writeBinary

This requests that the file manager component write to a specified file with the binary contents.

  • Type: Request
  • Connection: Binary
  • Direction: Client -> Server

This request is explicitly allowed to write to files that do not exist, and will create them under such circumstances. If a file is recorded as 'open' by one of the clients, and another client attempts to write to that file, the write must fail.

Parameters

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

//A command writing binary contents to a file.
table WriteFileCommand {

  //A path to a file.
  path: Path;

  //Binary contents.
  contents: [ubyte];

}

Result

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

//Indicates an operation has succeeded.
table Success {}

Errors

file/readBinary

This requests that the file manager component reads the binary contents of a specified file.

  • Type: Request
  • Direction: Client -> Server
  • Connection: Binary
  • Visibility: Public

If the file is recorded as open by the language server, then the result will return the contents from the in-memory buffer rather than the file on disk.

Parameters

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

//A command reading binary contents from a file.
table ReadFileCommand {

  //A path to a file.
  path: Path;

}

Result

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

//A reply for a ReadFileCommand.
table FileContentsReply {

  //Binary contents.
  contents: [ubyte];

}

Errors

file/writeBytes

This requests that the file manager component writes a set of bytes to the specified file at the specified offset.

  • Type: Request
  • Direction: Client -> Server
  • Connection: Binary
  • Visibility: Public

This method will create a file if no file is present at path.

  • The overwriteExisting boolean should be set if byteOffset is less than the length of the file.
  • The byteOffset property is zero-indexed. To append to the file you begin writing at index file.length.
  • If byteOffset > file.length, the bytes in the range [file.length, byteOffset) will be filled with null bytes.

Parameters

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

table WriteBytesRequest {
  // The file to write to.
  path : Path (required);

  // The byte offset in the file to write from.
  byteOffset : ulong (required);

  // Whether existing content should be overwritten.
  overwriteExisting : bool (required);

  // The file contents.
  bytes : [ubyte] (required);
}

Result

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

table WriteBytesResponse {
  // The checksum of the written bytes.
  checksum : EnsoDigest (required);
}

Notes:

  • The checksum is only of the bytes in the request as they were written to disk. This does not include checksumming the entire file. For that, please see file/checksumBytes.

Errors

  • CannotOverwrite to signal that an overwrite would be necessary to perform the operation but that overwriteExisting is not set.
  • NotFile if the provided segment.path is not a file.

file/readBytes

Asks the language server to read the specified number of bytes at the specified offset in the file.

  • Type: Request
  • Direction: Client -> Server
  • Connection: Binary
  • Visibility: Public

It will attempt to read as many as segment.length bytes, but does not guarantee that the response will contain segment.length bytes (e.g. if segment.length would require reading off the end of the file).

Parameters

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

table ReadBytesRequest {
  // The segment in a file to read bytes from.
  segment : FileSegment (required);
}

Result

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

table ReadBytesResponse {
  // The checksum of the bytes in this response.
  checksum : EnsoDigest (required);

  // The requested file contents.
  bytes : [ubyte] (required);
}

Notes:

  • The checksum is of the bytes as they have been read from disk.

Execution Management Operations

The execution management portion of the language server API deals with exposing fine-grained control over program and expression execution to the clients of the language server. This is incredibly important for enabling the high levels of interactivity required by Enso Studio.

Execution Management Example

Given the default project structure.

├── package.yaml
└── src
    └── Main.enso

$ cat src/Main.enso

main =
    x = 6
    y = x.foo 5
    z = y + 5
    z

Number.foo = x ->
    y = this + 3
    z = y * x
    z

Create Execution Context

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "executionContext/create",
  "id": 0,
  "params": null
}

Return capabilities together with a newly created ContextId.

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 0,
  "result": {
    "contextId": "1eb5ad04-4094-4c1f-be54-e9d29ddf19a3",
    "canModify": {
      "method": "executionContext/canModify",
      "registerOptions": {
        "contextId": "1eb5ad04-4094-4c1f-be54-e9d29ddf19a3"
      }
    },
    "receivesUpdates": {
      "method": "executionContext/receivesUpdates",
      "registerOptions": {
        "contextId": "1eb5ad04-4094-4c1f-be54-e9d29ddf19a3"
      }
    }
  }
}

Push Item

Entering the main method. First item on the stack should always be an ExplicitCall.

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "executionContext/push",
  "id": 0,
  "params": {
    "contextId": "1eb5ad04-4094-4c1f-be54-e9d29ddf19a3",
    "stackItem": {
      "type": "ExplicitCall",
      "methodPointer": {
        "file": {
          "rootId": "18f642a2-5f69-4fc8-add6-13bf199ca326",
          "segments": ["src", "Main.enso"]
        },
        "definedOnType": "Main",
        "name": "main"
      },
      "thisArgumentExpression": null,
      "positionalArgumentsExpressions": []
    }
  }
}

Returns successful reponse.

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 0,
  "result": null
}

And a value update, result of the method foo call defined on type Number.

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "executionContext/expressionValuesComputed",
  "params": {
    "contextId": "1eb5ad04-4094-4c1f-be54-e9d29ddf19a3",
    "updates": [
      {
        "id": "37f284d4-c593-4e65-a4be-4948fbd2adfb",
        "type": "Number",
        "shortValue": "45",
        "methodCall": {
          "file": {
            "rootId": "18f642a2-5f69-4fc8-add6-13bf199ca326",
            "segments": ["src", "Main.enso"]
          },
          "definedOnType": "Number",
          "name": "foo"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

We can go deeper and evaluate the method foo call by pushing the LocalCall on the stack. In general, all consequent stack items should be LocalCalls.

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "executionContext/push",
  "id": 0,
  "params": {
    "contextId": "1eb5ad04-4094-4c1f-be54-e9d29ddf19a3",
    "stackItem": {
      "type": "LocalCall",
      "expressionId": "37f284d4-c593-4e65-a4be-4948fbd2adfb"
    }
  }
}

Returns successful reponse.

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 0,
  "result": null
}

And update of some value inside the function foo.

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "executionContext/expressionValuesComputed",
  "params": {
    "contextId": "1eb5ad04-4094-4c1f-be54-e9d29ddf19a3",
    "updates": [
      {
        "id": "1cda3676-bd62-41f8-b6a1-a1e1b7c73d18",
        "type": "Number",
        "shortValue": "9",
        "methodCall": null
      }
    ]
  }
}

Pop Item

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "executionContext/pop",
  "id": 0,
  "params": {
    "contextId": "1eb5ad04-4094-4c1f-be54-e9d29ddf19a3"
  }
}

Popping one item will return us into the main method. Second call will clear the stack. Subsequent pop calls will result in an error indicating that the stack is empty.

The input/output portion of the language server API deals with redirecting stdin/stdout/stderr of Enso programs to the clients of the language server. This is incredibly important for enabling the high levels of interactivity required by Enso Studio.

io/redirectStandardOutput

This message allows a client to redirect the standard output of Enso programs. Once the standard output is redirected, the Language server will notify the client about new output data by emitting io/standardOutputAppended messages.

  • Type: Request
  • Direction: Client -> Server
  • Connection: Protocol
  • Visibility: Public

Parameters

null;

Result

null;

Errors

N/A

io/suppressStandardOutput

This message allows a client to suppress the redirection of the standard output.

  • Type: Request
  • Direction: Client -> Server
  • Connection: Protocol

Errors

The language server component also has its own set of errors. This section is not a complete specification and will be updated as new errors are added.

Besides the required code and message fields, the errors may have a data field which can store additional error-specific payload.

Error

An error container for the binary connection that contains a code, message and payload.

namespace org.enso.languageserver.protocol.binary;

table Error {
  // A unique error code identifying error type.
  code: int (required);

  // An error message.
  message: string (required);

  // Additional payloads for the error.
  data : ErrorPayload (required);
}

union ErrorPayload {
  EMPTY: EmptyPayload,
  ...
}

struct EmptyPayload {}

Note:

  • The union ErrorPayload will be extended with additional payloads as necessary.
  • All textual-protocol errors can be represented using this structure.
