Go to library definition

[Swoorup]

Does this extension support viewing library source files, similar to intellij-haskell via Go To Definition?

[Avi-D-coder]

Not yet. It's blocked on ghcide integration, and then ghcide gaining support.

Only note that the ghcide integration is being done in haskell-language-server.

@jneira could you explain why this is part of haskell-language-server and not ghcide to help with my understanding? What about this issue, where it says it's already jumping somehwhere https://github.com/digital-asset/ghcide/issues/509 ? Thanks :)

Haskell Language Server is based on the ghcide fork of mpickering that supports loading multiple components in the same session. This fork is not merged yet, see haskell/ghcide#522. As HLS is more experimental, we move faster and break things faster. That is why HLS currently has more features and especially more bleeding edge stuff.

The mentioned issue is about jumping to definitions in the same component, e.g. library component, which already works reliably, afaik.

Thank you

Thanks for reporting the issue.
It is not implemented yet, the issue in the lsp server backend tracking the feature request is haskell/haskell-language-server#708
