1.18.0

[1.18.0] - 2023-03-20

Added

• Added support for changing Color3 colors using the color picker
• Added support for automatic require imports (currently only for Roblox mode). If you start typing the name of a module in your code, you can autocomplete the require statement automatically. This feature is enabled by setting luau-lsp.completion.suggestImports. (Thanks @HawDevelopment!)

Code_v0GdNGjzUX.mp4

Changed

• Sync to upstream Luau 0.568.
  In particular, this provide improvements to control flow analysis refinements. This allows the type checker to recognise type
  options that are unreachable after a conditional/unconditional code block. e.g.:

local function x(x: string?)
    if not x then return end

    -- x is 'string' here
end

To enable this feature, the FFlag LuauTinyControlFlowAnalysis must currently be enabled.

• The language server will only be enabled on "file" and "untitled" schemes. This means it will be disabled in diff mode
  and live share. This is because we cannot yet provide sufficient information in these contexts.

1.17.1

[1.17.1] - 2023-03-04

Changed

• Sync to upstream Luau 0.566

Fixed

• Don't autocomplete another set of parentheses on a function call if they already exist
• Fix .luaurc in current working directory not taken into account when calling luau-lsp analyze
• Fixed slowdown of autocompletion when at a position where a type is explicitly expected (e.g., autocompleting a return expression when a return type is specified). Currently requires LuauAutocompleteSkipNormalization to be enabled

1.17.0

[1.17.0] - 2023-02-12

Added

• Added two code actions: Sort requires and Sort services (services only enabled if luau-lsp.types.roblox == true).
  These actions will sort their respective groups alphabetically based on a variable name set.
  You can also set these actions to automatically run on save by configuring:

"editor.codeActionsOnSave": {
    "source.organizeImports": true
}

Code_OlQbWEgpWo.mp4

Equivalent functionality has also been added to StyLua

Changed

• Sync to upstream Luau 0.563

• Prioritised common services and Instance properties/methods in autocomplete so that they show up first. This is especially useful for services like ReplicatedStorage, and methods like :FindFirstChild

Before	After

Fixed

• Further fixes to document symbols failing due to malformed ranges

1.16.4

[1.16.4] - 2023-02-10

Fixed

• Fixed document symbols crashing due to internal malformed data

1.16.3

[1.16.3] - 2023-02-09

Fixed

• Changed internal representation of documents to reduce the likelihood of Request Failed for "No managed text document"

Please do let me know if this has improved (or worsened) the issue!

1.16.2

[1.16.2] - 2023-02-01

Fixed

• Fixed document symbol crash on incomplete functions
• Fixed --base-luaurc not registering for an LSP server
• Fixed crashing on invalid FFlags configuration - the VSCode client will now validate the flags

1.16.1

[1.16.1] - 2023-01-30

Fixed

• Fixed error in document symbols not conforming to specification - selectionRange will now be fully enclosed by range

1.16.0

[1.16.0] - 2023-01-29

Added

• Support documentation comments attached to a table and table types, e.g. on DATA in the following:

--- Doc comment
local DATA = {
    ...
}

--- Doc comment
type Contents = {
	...
}

• Include documentation comments on functions and tables in autocompletion
• Added configuration option luau-lsp.require.mode to configure how string requires are resolved. It can either be relativeToWorkspaceRoot (default) or relativeToFile
• Added luau-lsp.types.documentationFiles to support adding extra documentation symbols to the database. These are used to support definition files, and should be in the same format as shown here
• Added luau-lsp.diagnostics.strictDatamodelTypes (default: false) which configures whether we use expressive DataModel types to power diagnostics.
  When off, game / script / workspace (and all their members) are typed as any, which helps to prevent false positives, but may lead to false negatives.
• Added CLI option --base-luaurc=PATH for both LSP and Analyze mode to provide a path to a .luaurc file which is used as the default configuration
• Added support for Go To Definition / Type Definition on imported type references module.Type (gated behind FFlag SupportTypeAliasGoToDeclaration)

Changed

• Sync to upstream Luau 0.560
• Class symbols with no documentation present in the docs file will no longer show anything on hover/autocomplete (i.e. won't show @luau/global/require)
• Instance.new() now accepts variables which are of type string without erroring. It will instead error when Instance.new is called with a string literal which is an unknown class name
• In the CLI, luau-lsp lsp now supports passing multiple --docs= parameters
• The CLI will now error when an unknown option is passed to it
• Diagnostics will now be emitted on .luaurc files with parse errors

Fixed

• Fixed unknown require errors occurring in multi-root workspaces when in a folder which isn't the first one
• Fixed diagnostics not clearing for files which were deleted unconventionally (i.e., outside of VSCode using File Explorer, or external commands such as git stash)

1.15.0

[1.15.0] - 2023-01-11

Added

• Added syntax highlighting support for interpolated strings

• Added color viewers for Color3.new/fromRGB/fromHSV/fromHex (gated behind config.types.roblox)

• Added support for autocompleting require-by-string functions with files and folders when using base Luau

Code_TNvzk5h7Tu.mp4

• Support documentation comments on variables:

--- documentation comment
local x = "string"

--- another doc comment
local y = function()
end

• Support documentation comments on table properties, such as the following:

local tbl = {
    --- This is some special information
    data = "hello",
    --- This is a doc comment
    values = function()
    end,
}

local x = tbl.values -- Should give "This is a doc comment"
local y = tbl.data -- Should give "This is some special information"

Changed

• Sync to upstream Luau 0.558
• All Luau FFlags are no longer enabled by default. This can be re-enabled by configuring luau-lsp.fflags.enableByDefault. It is recommended to keep luau-lsp.fflags.sync enabled so that FFlags sync with upstream Luau
• Allow variable number of = sign for multiline doc comments, so --[[ and --[===[ etc. are valid openers

Fixed

• Luau analyze now exits with code 0 if there are no reported errors (all errors are ignored)
• require(instance:FindFirstChild("Testing", true)) will no longer resolve as an immediate child of instance due to the recursive argument
• Fixed a bug where internally the wrong pointer to an Instance type was being used for DM nodes which manifested into failed unification and never types
• Constant variables will now be syntax highlighted appropriately at definition site (local CONSTANT)
