Unknown field 'language-servers'

[chrisolsen]

Summary

When using the languages.toml file I get the following

Bad language config: unknown field "language-servers", expected one of "name", "scope", "file-types", "shebangs", "roots", "comment-token", "text-width", "soft-wrap", "config", "auto-format", "formatter", "diagnostic-severity", "grammar", "injection-regex", "language-server", "indent", "debugger", "auto-pairs", "rulers", "workspace-lsp-roots"

I am using the latest release of Helix.

There was a breaking change to languages.toml after the 23.05 release, so you can't use master's languages.toml with version 23.05. You shouldn't need to copy the whole file though: configuration in ~/.config/helix/languages.toml or .helix/languages.toml is merged on top of the languages.toml at the repository root. See https://docs.helix-editor.com/languages.html

After looking at the releases page it looks like it was included in the 23.05 release.

When setting up the credo ls I noticed the change and so I thought I was missing out on this feature.

Thanks for clearing up the language config issue :)

Just curious, somewhat new to the open source sphere, but how do I find out more about the broken languages.toml issue? Updating to 23.05 broke some of my stuff because of this issue it seems. But where is the info one what caused the problem, I can't seem to find more about it.

Also, I assume I just have to go back to 23.03 to get it working again?

[pascalkuthe]

there was no breaking change in the 23.5 release only on the master branch (as of yet unrelated)

Sorry I should've clarified, I just repulled master and installed it today, and found a similar problem as this discussion.
Edit: Ok I fixed my issue after realizing the difference in master vs stable docs. Sorry for the bother
