flangd README

flangd is a Fortran language server written in Python, using f18 as the feature provider. It is a work in progress, and has limited features. If you have any issues at all, please make an issue.

Features

Currently implemented Go To Definition, Document Symbols and Diagnostics (with my fork of f18) (https://github.com/tinlun/f18/tree/master).

Requirements

This package requires f18.

Diagnostic feature requires my fork of f18.

This package also requires the following extensions to be installed:

• Modern Fortran or fortran

You must also have Python3 installed.

Note that flangd only works on Linux (because f18 is only available on Linux).

Installation

This extension is only available for Linux. You can also use this extension if you are using Windows Subsystem for Linux, though the steps are a bit more convoluted.

Linux:

In the root of this repository:

code --install-extension flangd-0.0.1.vsix

WSL using Remote-WSL:

Assuming you already have WSL installed.

Install the Remote-WSL extension for VS Code.

Copy the tinlun.flangd-0.0.1 directory into ~/.vscode-server/extensions

Launch VS Code in WSL mode.

Then, for all methods:

Check that you have flangd installed by going to VS Code settings (Ctrl + ,) and searching for flangd. If the extension was installed correctly, some settings should show up there.

While the settings are up, set the correct path to flangd and f18. If you don't set these paths correctly, flangd will blow up on you.

Once set, reload the VS Code window by F1 > Developer: Reload Window.

Then try opening a fortran document. If done correctly, there should be a text notification that pops up telling you which f18 flangd is using.
