My workflow in Visual Studio Code + Rust Analyzer has become: 1. Make a change to Rust source code using all the analysis magic 2. Save the file to trigger `cargo watch`. I have format on save enabled for all file types so this also runs `rustfmt` 3. Fix any diagnostics that `cargo watch` finds Unfortunately if the Rust source has any syntax errors the act of saving will pop up a scary "command has failed" message and will switch to the "Output" tab to show the `rustfmt` error and exit code. I did a quick survey of what other Language Servers do in this case. Both the JSON and TypeScript servers will swallow the error and return success. This is consistent with how I remember my workflow in those languages. The syntax error will show up as a diagnostic so it should be clear why the file isn't formatting. I checked the `rustfmt` source code and while it does distinguish "parse errors" from "operational errors" internally they both result in exit status of 1. However, more catastrophic errors (missing `rustfmt`, SIGSEGV, etc) will return 127+ error codes which we can distinguish from a normal failure. This changes our handler to log an info message and feign success if `rustfmt` exits with status 1. Another option I considered was only swallowing the error if the formatting request came from format-on-save. However, the Language Server Protocol doesn't seem to distinguish those cases. |
