Current workspace root as variable for languages.toml

[thfsilvab]

Hi! I'm adding Angular language server support to my local installation, and the command needs two things:

• path to the language server installation, which is in the global node/bun installation dir
• path to the TS installation, which can be either the global one or preferably the one in the project (version compatibility)

I was going through the docs and didn't find anything that could help me get the current directory to use in the command, is it possible?

My languages.toml, the tsProbeLocation parameter is the one I need to use the workspace root

[language-server.angularls]
command = "ngserver"
args = ["--stdio", "--tsProbeLocations", "~/.bun/install/global/node_modules", "--ngProbeLocations", "~/.bun/install/global/node_modules"]

[[language]]
name = "angular"
scope = "source.angular"
roots = ["angular.json"]
language-servers = ["angularls"]
file-types = ["ts", "html"]

Thanks in advance!

Tildes aren't expanded. Try command = "sh" and args = ["ngserver", ...]

How did you fix it?
