QML Language Server is a tool shipped with Qt that helps you write code in your favorite (LSP-supporting) editor. See Language Server Protocol 了解更多信息。
Currently, it enables your editor to:
注意: qmlls is currently in development, see Known Limitations 了解更多细节。
QML Language Server can automatically lint opened QML files and display warnings or errors straight in the editor. See qmllint for more information about the linting process.
QML Language Server can format entire files from inside the editor. See qmlformat for more information about the formatting process.
QML Language Server can find definitions of JavaScript variables, functions, QML object id's and QML properties from their usages.
QML Language Server can also find the definition of types used in type annotations for JavaScript functions, QML object properties, and QML object instantiation.
QML Language Server can find usages of JavaScript variables, QML object properties, JavaScript functions, QML object methods, and QML object id's.
注意:
You can find the QML Language Server binary under
<Qt installation folder>/bin/qmlls
in installations of Qt made with the official Maintenance Tool.
QML Language Server also needs to know the location of your build folder. You can pass it the following ways:
--build-dir
command line option. In this case your editor should invoke
qmlls
as following:
<path/to/qmlls> --build-dir <path/to/build-directory>
QMLLS_BUILD_DIRS
环境变量。
.qmlls.ini
settings file, see
配置文件
.
注意: When the build directory is specified in multiple ways, the command line option takes preference over the environment variable that takes precedence over the setting file.
QML Language Server can be configured via a configuration file
.qmlls.ini
. This file should be in the root source directory of the project. It should be a text file in the ini-format.
The configuration file should look like this:
// .qmlls.ini [General] buildDir=<path/to/build-directory>
Currently, the configuration file can only be used to set the build directory of the current project.
注意:
QML Language Server can create default configuration files using the
--write-defaults
option. This will overwrite an already existing .qmlls.ini file in the current directory.
QML Language Server might emit false positive warnings on projects that were not built, as it needs the build information to find QML modules defined in the same project, for example.
Despite covering many common QML features, the QML Language Server is still in development with some features yet to be supported:
The QML code model in the QML Language Server does not yet support all of the JavaScript language constructs, which means that some features like navigating to definition and finding usages might not work on these language constructs.
