1459: Include primary span label in VS Code diagnostics r=matklad a=etaoins
In most cases the primary label span repeats information found elsewhere in the diagnostic. For example, with E0061:
```json
{
"message": "this function takes 2 parameters but 3 parameters were supplied",
"spans": [{"label": "expected 2 parameters"}]
}
```
However, with some mismatched type errors (E0308) the expected type only appears in the primary span's label, e.g.:
```json
{
"message": "mismatched types",
"spans": [{"label": "expected usize, found u32"}]
}
```
I initially added the primary span label to the message unconditionally. However, for most error types the child diagnostics repeat the primary span label with more detail. `rustc` also renders the duplicate text but because the span label and child diagnostics appear in visually distinct places it's not as confusing.
This takes a heuristic approach where it will only add the primary span label if there are no child message lines. For most error types the child messages repeat the primary span label with more detail.

Rust Analyzer
Rust Analyzer is an experimental modular compiler frontend for the Rust language. It is a part of a larger rls-2.0 effort to create excellent IDE support for Rust. If you want to get involved, check the rls-2.0 working group in the compiler-team repository:
https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/tree/master/working-groups/rls-2.0
Work on the Rust Analyzer is sponsored by
Language Server Quick Start
Rust Analyzer is a work-in-progress, so you'll have to build it from source, and you might encounter critical bugs. That said, it is complete enough to provide a useful IDE experience and some people use it as a daily driver.
To build rust-analyzer, you need:
- latest stable rust for language server itself
- latest stable npm and VS Code for VS Code extension (
codeshould be in path)
For setup for other editors, see ./docs/user.
# clone the repo
$ git clone https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer && cd rust-analyzer
# install both the language server and VS Code extension
$ cargo install-code
# alternatively, install only the server. Binary name is `ra_lsp_server`.
$ cargo install-lsp
Documentation
If you want to contribute to rust-analyzer or just curious about how things work under the hood, check the ./docs/dev folder.
If you want to use rust-analyzer's language server with your editor of choice, check ./docs/user folder. It also contains some tips & tricks to help you be more productive when using rust-analyzer.
