Kite LSP

kite-lsp is an intermediary between editor-clients that speak Language Server Protocol, and the Kite Engine. It maintains an LSP session, and translates between LSP requests and Kite API requests.

Setup with JupyterLab

First, make sure you've installed JupyterLab, jupyterlab-kite, and the Kite Engine.

Then, to build kite-lsp run the following:

go install github.com/kiteco/kiteco/kite-go/lsp/cmds/kite-lsp

This will build the kite-lsp binary and then place it in $GOPATH/bin.

To make jupyterlab-kite aware of your build of kite-lsp, move to your Jupyter config folder (usually $HOME/.jupyter) and create a file called jupyter_notebook_config.json, with the following contents:

{
  "LanguageServerManager": {
      "language_servers": {
          "kitels": {
              "argv": [
                  "YOUR_KITE_LSP_LOCATION"
              ],
              "languages": [
                  "python"
              ],
              "version": 2
          }
      }
  }
}

If you built kite-lsp using the go install instruction above, then YOUR_KITE_LSP_LOCATION will be your GOPATH plus bin/kite-lsp, and this needs to be provided as an absolute path (i.e. don't just put "$GOPATH/bin/kite-lsp" in the config).

Usage

After installation, make sure that you have the Kite Engine running on your machine, and then start JupyterLab by running:

jupyter lab
