How to disable auto import in eclipse java jdt

[GNSubrahmanyam]

@rcjsuen In our use case we want to disable autoimport. How to stop sending completionItem/resolve

[rcjsuen]

@GNSubrahmanyam Either use a middleware to intercept the request or change the CompletionOptions from the server so that you make it seem like it actually doesn't support the resolveProvider.

You can look at microsoft/vscode-languageserver-node#322 or microsoft/vscode-languageserver-node#628 for some middleware examples I guess.

[GNSubrahmanyam]

I tried using middleware to intercept the request but still auto import is happening in Java eclipse language server

[rcjsuen]

@GNSubrahmanyam What does your middleware code look like?

Whenever you ask for help, you should always share your code if at all possible.

[GNSubrahmanyam]

@rcjsuen I did that

resolveCompletionItem: (items, token, next) => {
console.log(items)
next({}, token)
},

[rcjsuen]

resolveCompletionItem: (items, token, next) => {
console.log(items)
next({}, token)
},

I'm surprised the language server hasn't died since you're sending nothing back. You don't want to talk to the server at all, right? Why are you calling next?

[GNSubrahmanyam]

I agree with you even i am surpised that language server hasn't died :D. I tried removing next call but still autoimport is happening and that's strange

[rcjsuen]

@GNSubrahmanyam Then you need to keep debugging to see what's going on and/or reach out to the JDT Language Server team.

[GNSubrahmanyam]

@rcjsuen eclipse-jdtls/eclipse.jdt.ls#1505. In JDT language server no option to disable auto import

[rcjsuen]

@rcjsuen eclipse/eclipse.jdt.ls#1505. In JDT language server no option to disable auto import

Oh, that's too bad.

[GNSubrahmanyam]

Any alternative way to prevent via client middleware or server middleware.

@GNSubrahmanyam Well, did you figure out where the auto-imports are coming from?

[GNSubrahmanyam]

Yes, Through additionalTextEdits

[rcjsuen]

@GNSubrahmanyam OK, did you try deleting them then?

[GNSubrahmanyam]

Will try. How can i modifiy the request from lsp backend?

[rcjsuen]

@GNSubrahmanyam You can just modify the result in your middleware, no?

[GNSubrahmanyam]

in middleware which method ?

[GNSubrahmanyam]

@rcjsuen did this and it is working

import { has, get, map, omit, set} from "lodash";
import * as rpc from "vscode-ws-jsonrpc";
export const launch = (request: http.IncomingMessage, socket: rpc.IWebSocket) => {
if (rpc.isResponseMessage(message)) {
          if (typeof message.result === 'object' && has(message.result, 'isIncomplete')) {
            let items = map(get(message.result, 'items'), (item) => {
              if (has(item, 'additionalTextEdits')) {
                item = omit(item, 'additionalTextEdits')
                return item;
              }
              return item;
            })

            set(message.result, 'items', items)

          }
        }

@GNSubrahmanyam Thank you for sharing your solution! OK to close this?

[GNSubrahmanyam]

@rcjsuen Thanks :)

@GNSubrahmanyam how did you connect the server side of monaco-languageclient to the java language server?

In python i've done it by pip instal pyls and changed in the server side of languageclient:

const serverConnection = bridgeServer.createServerProcess('python','pyls');

How is it done in Java?

[CGNonofr]

Their documentation is pretty exhaustive

just run the provided command line instead of python pyls
