Hi guys!

Today I discover that we have a LanguageServer.jl package. However, I tried to install it with Neovim and all that I got was a Timeout message… Nothing worked, even the autocomplete. Can anyone help me?

I am experiencing similar problems in Emacs, you may find the discussion at

I installed everything as described, but I have an LSP[Disconnected] in my modeline. If I try to M-x lsp, I get a prompt telling me that it is not part of a project. I am not sure how to proceed here. I am using Emacs 26.1 and Julia 1.2-dev.

relevant.

In fact, using `master` from all those packages removed the timeout error. But I can’t user any features. For example, symbol renaming does not work, auto-completion just freezes for like 10s and then nothing is shown.

EDIT: Executing manually, I never see the `"StaticLint store set"` message.

There is the ALE/julia plugin for vim/neovim that implements autocomplete, error checks etc. But it’s need to patch the plugin after recent LanguageServer.jl updates. Please see details here: [ALE/julia not work with latest LanguageServer · Issue #2205 · dense-analysis/ale · GitHub](https://github.com/w0rp/ale/issues/2205)
