Editor Support

Neovim

The settings for the language server are in the lspconfig repo

1. Install the beancount language server

   sh cargo install beancount-language-server

   However you install it, you need to remember how to access the binary

2. Create a lua lspconfig for the beancount LSP example in my dotfiles

   • add the following code to your lspconfig

   lua local lspconfig = require 'lspconfig' lspconfig.beancount.setup= { init_options = { journal_file = "<path to journal file>", }; };

3. Open a beancount file and verify LSP connected with the LSPInfo command

Troubleshooting

beancount file type not detected

If you notice beancount files not having the "beancount" type, you need a neovim v0.5 or master built after Feb 17, 2021

If not the following in a file named beancount.vim in the ftdetect folder

```vim function! s:setf(filetype) abort if &filetype !=# a:filetype let &filetype = a:filetype endif endfunction

au BufNewFile,BufRead .bean,.beancount call s:setf('beancount') ```

VS Code

Plan to make a VS Code extesion in the future

Vim

Tested and Developed on Neovim v0.5 (master branch)
