Java JDT.LS configuration error about nvim-lspinstall HOT 7 CLOSED

Ah, my bad. I came from a setup without lspinstaller where the full path was handled by the script instead of the config object.
Since I use https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-jdtls, I still need to explicitly pass a workspace, and I forgot to update the cmd in the lua config.

Thanks for the quick and helpful response!

I'm using nvim-jdtls, so I can't use lspconfig's setup function for Java. I have to give it a config object, so I still have to define a cmd key. I've kept what I have, but changed the workspace parameter so that it now contains a full path.

I was unable to figure out how to get the config object including the cmd key from lspinstall, and use that as a basis. I'm still finding my way around Lua and Neovim's APIs 😅. So I figured I'd just hard code it for now and improve it later.

Is there a good way to get that config object, and/or a nice/official way to get the location of a language server for a given language? Right now I'm doing this: https://github.com/jqno/dotfiles/blob/4142375cd0961e1442f42128289acb7bc43c06aa/nvim/lua/filetypes/java.lua#L29

from nvim-lspinstall.

require'lspinstall/servers'.java.default_config

from nvim-lspinstall.

Also, now that I'm here: the script calls a command called die in two places, but my machine (a freshly installed Ubuntu 21.04) doesn't recognise it, and I can't find it via apt either. Googling it seems to turn up a lot of false positives about processes dying and whatnot. What do I need to install to make that work?

@jqno I copied parts of the script from kotlin lang server. Didn't realize die is a cmd local to the script (see: https://github.com/fwcd/kotlin-language-server/blob/58966bc18dd5bf82fdfcf7a2f44bab3622f6907a/server/src/test/resources/additionalWorkspace/gradlew#L56).
Thanks, will fix that.

$WORKSPACE should already be an absolute path

I also just tested it to confirm

:lua print(require "lspconfig/util".path.join { require"lspinstall/util".install_path("java"), 'workspace', 'test' })

prints:

/Users/karim/.local/share/nvim/lspinstall/java/test

from nvim-lspinstall.

So now you've removed the cmd key from your config?

Thank you!
