General "not working" issue

[bali182]

I'm sorry, I don't know how to name this issue.

I followed the installation steps:

1. Installed playlyfe/gql:

2. Installed watchman:

3. Installed this plugin in VSCode & restarted the IDE:

4. Added a .graphqlconfig file, which points to a graphql file I'd like to edit:

{
  "schemaPath": "src/schema.gql"
}

What works:

1. Syntax highlighting works fine:

2. Snippets work fine:

What doesn't work:

1. Autocomplete - only the default token based autocomplete shows up:

2. Linting/error highlighting - I couldn't cause any linting errors

3. Find type - doesn't work

4. Language server doesnt even seem to be running:

Any pointers on how could I make this plugin work?

The config file should be named .gqlconfig, not .graphqlconfig

Thanks @kumarharsh that got me one step further. Now when I restart the IDE and open a .gql file I get this:

But nothing on the output tab seems to contain valuable info. I can see in the Log (extension host) channel (or whatever they call these) that it was trying to start the plugin:

[2019-01-24 11:24:30.816] [exthost] [info] ExtensionService#_doActivateExtension kumar-harsh.graphql-for-vscode {"startup":true,"activationEvent":"workspaceContains:.gqlconfig"}

[2019-01-24 11:24:30.927] [exthost] [info] eager extensions activated 

But no stacktrace or errors.

I think maybe it's not able to talk to watchman. Maybe some permissions issue? Try shutting down watchman (watchman shutdown-server) and close vscode, then restart vscode. The plugin should automatically restart watchman server.

Same error after a watchman shutdown-server. Any way I could debug it? I'm not too familiar with the vscode plugin infrastructure.

Have the same issue - VSCode for Graphql couldn't start
Neither changing schema nor .gqlconfig have any different effect.

.gqlconfig

{
  "schema": {
    "files": "schema.graphql"
  },
  "query": {
    "files": [{
      "match": "packages/**/*.gql",
      "parser": "QueryParser"
    }, {
      "match": { "include": "packages/**/*.js" },
      "parser": ["EmbeddedQueryParser", { "startTag": "gql`", "endTag": "`" }]
    }]
  }
}

@kumarharsh any ideas on what we can try to resolve this?

@TuxujPes The error can happen if schema.graphql file is not present or there is some error in schema.graphql file which is not handled in plugin (Share content of schema.graphql if possible).

To fix issue first check schema.graphql file is present. If the file is present and still error is coming then replace schema.graphql content with below and restart vscode. If everything works fine then you should see error in schema.graphql file Type "xString" not found.

# schema.graphql
type Query {
   name: xString
}

I'm having the same issue here using the exactly same versions and tried the shutdown workaround...

In my case, nothing works... Syntax highlight, nothing...

Can anyone shed a light and what that may be?
