vyper-lsp 0.1.1

Language server for Vyper, a pythonic smart contract language

Vyper LSP Server

Requirements

Vyper LSP requires a minimum vyper version of 0.4.1. For full support, it is also required that the Vyper version installed in your virtual environment is capable of compiling your contract.

Development

Setting up Development Environment

1. Install uv (Fast Python package installer and resolver)

   # Install with pip
   pip install uv
   
   # Or on macOS with Homebrew
   brew install uv
   

2. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/vyperlang/vyper-lsp.git
   cd vyper-lsp
   

3. Install dependencies

   uv pip install -e .
   

4. Run tests

   uv run pytest
   

Code Quality and Testing

• Run linting: ruff check .
• Format code: ruff format .
• Generate test coverage: coverage run -m pytest && coverage report

Install Vyper-LSP

via pipx

I like pipx because it handles creating an isolated env for executables and putting them on your path.

pipx install git+https://github.com/vyperlang/vyper-lsp.git

via pip

You can install using pip if you manage your environments through some other means:

pip install git+https://github.com/vyperlang/vyper-lsp.git

Verify installation

Check that vyper-lsp is on your path:

In your terminal, run which vyper-lsp. If installation was succesful, you should see the path to your installed executable.

Editor Setup

Emacs

The following emacs lisp snippet will create a Vyper mode derived from Python Mode, and sets up vyper-lsp.

(define-derived-mode vyper-mode python-mode "Vyper" "Major mode for editing Vyper.")

(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.vy\\'" . vyper-mode))

(with-eval-after-load 'lsp-mode
  (add-to-list 'lsp-language-id-configuration
               '(vyper-mode . "vyper"))
  (lsp-register-client
   (make-lsp-client :new-connection
                    (lsp-stdio-connection `(,(executable-find "vyper-lsp")))
                    :activation-fn (lsp-activate-on "vyper")
                    :server-id 'vyper-lsp)))

Neovim

Add the following to your neovim lua config.

It should be at ~/.config/nvim/init.lua

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({ "BufEnter" }, {
  pattern = { "*.vy" },
  callback = function()
    vim.lsp.start({
      name = "vyper-lsp",
      cmd = { "vyper-lsp" },
      root_dir = vim.fs.dirname(vim.fs.find({ ".git" }, { upward = true })[1])
    })
  end,
})

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({ "BufEnter" }, {
  pattern = { "*.vy" },
  callback = function()
    vim.lsp.start({
      name = "vyper-lsp",
      cmd = { "vyper-lsp" },
      root_dir = vim.fs.dirname(vim.fs.find({ ".git" }, { upward = true })[1])
    })
  end,
})

vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', 'gd', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.buf.definition()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', 'gD', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.buf.declaration()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', 'gr', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.buf.references()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', 'gi', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.buf.implementation()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', 'K', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.buf.hover()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<C-k>', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.buf.signature_help()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '[d', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.diagnostic.goto_prev()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', ']d', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.diagnostic.goto_next()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
