Python Delphi/Object Pascal parser, semantic indexer, and language server.

Project description

Python Delphi LSP

Python Delphi LSP is a standalone Python package for Delphi/Object Pascal parsing, semantic indexing, diagnostics, and Language Server Protocol support.

The distributable package is named python-delphi-lsp. The import package keeps the established delphiast name, and the language-server executable is delphi-lsp.

What It Provides

  • Parser support for .pas, .dpr, .dpk, and .inc files
  • Delphi preprocessor handling for include files, conditionals, and compiler directives
  • Semantic symbols for units, types, methods, fields, properties, variables, constants, and references
  • Workspace indexing across Delphi projects
  • LSP support for document symbols, workspace symbols, hover, definition, references, rename, completion, and diagnostics
  • opencode integration through the experimental LSP tool

Installation

Install the package from a built distribution or from PyPI once published:

python -m pip install python-delphi-lsp

For development from a checkout:

python -m venv .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install -e ".[dev]"
python -m pytest -q

On Windows PowerShell:

python -m venv .venv
.\.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
python -m pip install -e ".[dev]"
python -m pytest -q

Python API Example

from delphiast import parse

result = parse("unit Unit1; interface implementation end.", "Unit1.pas")
print(result.root)

Enable semantic analysis when you need symbols or diagnostics:

from delphiast import parse

source = """
unit Unit1;

interface

type
  TGreeter = class
  public
    procedure SayHello;
  end;

implementation

procedure TGreeter.SayHello;
begin
end;

end.
"""

result = parse(source, "Unit1.pas", build_semantic=True)
for symbol in result.semantic.symbols:
    print(symbol.name, symbol.kind)

Language Server Usage

Start the LSP server over stdio:

delphi-lsp

From a checkout, the equivalent command is:

python -m delphiast.lsp_server

The server expects normal LSP JSON-RPC over stdio. Editors and tools should set the workspace root to the Delphi project directory and pass any include paths or compiler defines through LSP initialization options when needed.

opencode Usage

This repository includes an opencode.json that registers the Delphi LSP tool and model aliases for local Ollama and vLLM endpoints.

For normal local opencode work, use the Ollama alias with a larger context:

opencode run --dir . --model ollama/ornith-lspctx

For large Delphi files, prefer LSP operations over reading the file into the model prompt. The reduced vllm-lsp agent disables filesystem and shell tools and leaves only the LSP tool enabled:

OPENCODE_EXPERIMENTAL_LSP_TOOL=true \
python scripts/run_opencode_lsp_probe.py \
  --cwd output/mega_lsp_chain_project \
  --model vllm/ornith-lspctx \
  --agent vllm-lsp \
  --require-tool lsp.workspaceSymbol:MegaProc02500 \
  --forbid-tool bash --forbid-tool read --forbid-tool glob --forbid-tool grep \
  --forbid-tool edit --forbid-tool write --forbid-tool task \
  --forbid-tool webfetch --forbid-tool todowrite --forbid-tool skill \
  'Use only the Delphi LSP tool. In file Mega100kUnit.pas, run workspaceSymbol with filePath "Mega100kUnit.pas", line 1, character 1, and query "MegaProc02500".'

For an LSP-first edit proof, use vllm-lsp-edit. It permits the opencode edit tool after LSP lookup while still forbidding shell and direct file-reading tools:

OPENCODE_EXPERIMENTAL_LSP_TOOL=true \
python scripts/run_opencode_lsp_probe.py \
  --cwd output/mega_lsp_chain_project \
  --model vllm/ornith-lspctx \
  --agent vllm-lsp-edit \
  --require-tool lsp.workspaceSymbol:MegaProc02500 \
  --require-tool 'edit:Edit applied successfully' \
  --forbid-tool bash --forbid-tool read --forbid-tool glob --forbid-tool grep \
  --forbid-tool write --forbid-tool task --forbid-tool webfetch \
  --forbid-tool todowrite --forbid-tool skill \
  'Use LSP first, then edit the exact MegaProc02500 block.'

Reproducing the vLLM opencode Test

The vLLM test is designed to prove that opencode can work on Delphi files larger than the model context by calling LSP instead of loading the source file into the prompt.

The test does the following:

  1. Creates output/mega_lsp_chain_project/Mega100kUnit.pas, a generated Delphi unit with more than 100,000 lines and the symbol MegaProc02500.
  2. Writes an opencode sandbox config with an absolute delphi-lsp command and PYTHONPATH pointing at the checkout.
  3. Uses vllm/ornith-lspctx with the reduced vllm-lsp agent.
  4. Requires a completed lsp.workspaceSymbol tool call that returns MegaProc02500.
  5. Fails immediately if opencode calls read, bash, glob, grep, edit, write, task, webfetch, todowrite, or skill.

On macOS, start the local vLLM helper and run the proof:

scripts/bootstrap_vllm_opencode_test.sh --start-vllm

By default the vLLM helper is offline-only. It checks the Hugging Face cache and does not download model shards. Pass --allow-download only when you explicitly want the helper to fill missing cache files.

On Windows PowerShell, use an already running vLLM-compatible endpoint:

.\scripts\bootstrap_vllm_opencode_test.ps1 -UseRunningServer

Use a custom endpoint when vLLM runs in WSL, Docker, or on another machine:

.\scripts\bootstrap_vllm_opencode_test.ps1 -UseRunningServer -BaseUrl "http://127.0.0.1:8001/v1"

The macOS helper uses these defaults:

  • MODEL_ID=deepreinforce-ai/Ornith-1.0-9B
  • SERVED_MODEL_NAME=ornith-vllm-metal
  • MAX_MODEL_LEN=44352
  • MAX_NUM_SEQS=1
  • VLLM_METAL_MEMORY_FRACTION=0.97
  • TOOL_CALL_PARSER=qwen3_xml

The release evidence from the local proof recorded:

  • default opencode request: 29,318 system-prompt characters and 10 tool schemas
  • reduced LSP-only request: 8,978 system-prompt characters and 1 tool schema
  • generated test unit: 117k lines
  • GitHub corpus file: 14,309 lines
  • context_budget.status = "pass"
  • goal_audit.status = "pass"

Verification

Run the local test suite:

python -m pytest -q

Generate the Delphi language-feature matrix:

python scripts/audit_delphi_language_features.py

Build and check distributable artifacts:

python -m build
python -m twine check dist/*
