thrift-ls is both an executable binary that can be run, and a library that can be used in Rust programs.

Installing the command-line executable

Assuming you have Rust/Cargo installed, run this command in a terminal:

cargo install thrift-ls

It will make the thrift-ls command available in your PATH if you've allowed the PATH to be modified when installing Rust. cargo uninstall thrift-ls uninstalls.

Adding `thrift_analyzer` library as a dependency

Run this command in a terminal, in your project's directory:

cargo add thrift-ls

To add it manually, edit your project's Cargo.toml file and add to the [dependencies] section:

thrift-ls = "0.1.6"

The thrift_analyzer library will be automatically available globally. Read the thrift_analyzer library documentation.

How to Build

Prerequisites

Cargo installed (see here).
Node.js installed (optional, for building the VS Code extension).

Build with Cargo

Clone and Build

git clone https://github.com/ocfbnj/thrift-ls.git
cd thrift-ls
cargo build --release

Now you can find the binary in ./target/release/thrift-ls.

Build VS Code Extension

Install wasm-pack and wasm-bindgen-cli

cargo install wasm-pack wasm-bindgen-cli

Install vsce
```
npm install -g @vscode/vsce
```
Build the VS Code extension
```
cd editors/code
npm install
npm run compile
vsce package
```
Now you can find the VS Code extension in ./thrift-ls-x.x.x.vsix.
