Getting Julia LanguageServer in Julia Environments to work with helix

[haxfn]

Hi! I am trying to get Julia LSP to work with helix editor for environments, and I need help understanding how to achieve this.

Helix uses the following config for Julia LSP source:

julia = { command = "julia", timeout = 60, args = [ "--startup-file=no", "--history-file=no", "--quiet", "-e", "using LanguageServer; runserver()", ] }

And in the Julia LanguageServer docs it says to use the following:

"To run an instance of LanguageServer.jl on env_path, you can run Julia as follows:

julia --project=/path/to/LanguageServer.jl/environment \
 -e "using LanguageServer; runserver()" \
 <env_path>

If env_path is not specified, the language server will run on the parent project of pwd or on the default .julia/environments/v#.# if there is no parent project."

I think the helix config for Julia LSP should work as per the defaults of LanguageServer.

In the following image you can see @variable syntax of JuliaSymbolics not being recognized inside a Julia environment (Project.toml, Manifest.toml). But if I were to open the same files after deleting Project.toml and Manifest.toml from the project root (the screenshot of which I have not added yet), and have the said packages installed in my base enviroment, then the @variable syntax is recognized flawlessly.

What is the issue? I can give any further details that are required.

After moving Project.toml and Manifest.toml out of the folder:

This turned out not to be an issue to be tackled with either Helix or the LanguageServer. LanguageServer does indeed work without any additional tweaks in default Helix config for Julia Lang, even for environments (either start Helix from the environment directory or :change_working_directory to the one that contains the Project.toml.

This issue is just with the macro syntax. The @variable syntax is a macro, which doesn't have a Julia LanguageServer implementation yet I would guess.
