bootls integration

I wanted to open this thread to keep boot-ls related discussions in one place.

Dispatching messages between jdtls and bootls.

I'm having some trouble to understand how I could do thing without going full blocking way.

If I'm adding handler for bootls using something like:

['sts/addClasspathListener'] = on_sts_addClasspathListener

What I'd like to accomplish is to return response back to bootls only when execute_command returns from jdtld.

local JdtlsClient = require('java-core.ls.clients.jdtls-client')
local async = require('java-core.utils.async').sync

local function on_sts_addClasspathListener(err, result, ctx, config)
	local client = lsp.get_jdtls_client()
	log.debug('XXX client: ', client)
	log.debug('XXX result: ', result)
	local ret = async(function()
		local ret1 = JdtlsClient:new({client = client}):execute_command('sts.java.addClasspathListener', result.callbackCommandId)
		log.debug('XXX ret1: ', ret1)
		return ret1
	  end)
	  .run()
	log.debug('XXX ret: ', ret)
  return {}
end

I tried above but then realised that this async stuff may not be meant for this. Above is logging:

[DEBUG Sun 31 Dec 2023 15:30:19 GMT] ...java-core/lua/lspconfig/server_configurations/bootls.lua:59: XXX ret:  nil
[DEBUG Sun 31 Dec 2023 15:30:19 GMT] ...java-core/lua/lspconfig/server_configurations/bootls.lua:52: XXX ret1:  ok

Is it somewhat possible to get ret1 value out from an async block before on_sts_addClasspathListener returns?

@jvalkeal Unless the entire ['sts/addClasspathListener'] = on_sts_addClasspathListener statement is wrapped in async OR the one who's calling it wraps it, it's not possible. In sts4, it's similar. It returns a promise, so what ever calls that should be a async function.

    client.onRequest(addRequest, async (params: ClasspathListenerParams) => {
        return <ClasspathListenerResponse> await VSCode.commands.executeCommand("java.execute.workspaceCommand", "sts.java.addClasspathListener", params.callbackCommandId);
    });

Try using request_sync function.

  • request_sync(method, params, timeout_ms, bufnr) Sends a request to the
    server and synchronously waits for the response. This is a wrapper
    around {client.request} Returns: { err=err, result=result }, a
    dictionary, where `err` and `result` come from the |lsp-handler|. On
    timeout, cancel or error, returns `(nil, err)` where `err` is a string
    describing the failure reason. If the request was unsuccessful returns
    `nil`.

Thx, I came to same conclusion when I was reading that long async thread in neovim repo itself but wanted to ask to be sure.

This is not implemented
