# Deputy

A lightweight language server for your dependencies.

Deputy currently supports the following:

- [Cargo](https://crates.io) (`Cargo.toml`)
- [Golang](https://pkg.go.dev) (`go.mod`)
- [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com) (`package.json`)
- [Python](https://pypi.org) (`pyproject.toml`)
- [Rokit](https://github.com/rojo-rbx/rokit) (`rokit.toml`)
- [Wally](https://github.com/UpliftGames/wally) (`wally.toml`)

Provides autocomplete, diagnostics for out-of-date versions, and more. <br/>
Check out the [features](#features) and [screenshots](#screenshots) sections for a full overview.

## Installation

Deputy can be installed as an extension from:

- The [Visual Studio Marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=filiptibell.deputy) (VSCode)
- The [Open VSX Registry](https://open-vsx.org/extension/filiptibell/deputy) (Cursor, Windsurf, ...)
- The [Zed Extensions](https://zed.dev/extensions) registry <sup>[1]</sup>

<sup>[1]</sup> Additional extensions for TOML/Go language support may need to be installed first for corresponding Deputy features to be recognized and work in Zed.

Extensions can also be built and installed from source:

## Features

- Autocomplete for names, versions, and features
- Hover for information - includes description, links to documentation & more
- Diagnostics:
  - A newer version is available
  - The specified tool / package / version does not exist
- Quick actions on diagnostics - update to newest version

## Command Line

Deputy can also run diagnostics over a workspace without starting an editor:

```bash
deputy analyze
```

By default, this checks the current directory for supported manifests and prints diagnostics with source snippets.
Error diagnostics will cause the command to exit with a non-zero status code, making it suitable for CI.

## Why "Deputy"?

This project was previously called "Tooling Language Server", but I felt it was a bit too generic and verbose.

Deputy is mostly just a fun wordplay on "Dependency" and "Utility", but you can also interpret it using the literal meaning of the word. <br/>
Deputy helps you (the sheriff of dependencies) stay informed, and keep your versions up to date. 🤠
