SpelLSP Server

A simple LSP (Language Server Protocol) server for spellchecking, hover definitions, and basic completion using Rust and zspell.
It supports full-text synchronization and provides diagnostics for spelling errors in real time.

Features

• Real-time spellchecking with diagnostic publishing.
• Hover definitions for words using an online dictionary.
• UTF-8 aware text handling.

Usage

Build the server with:

cargo b -r

Then connect your LSP-compatible editor (like VSCode, Helix, or Neovim) to the server executable.

Roadmap

Planned improvements and features:

• Local caching: Cache lookup results locally to reduce network calls and improve performance.
• Autocorrect: Suggest fixes for misspelled words directly in the editor.
• Autocomplete: Provide context-aware word suggestions while typing.
• Custom dictionaries: Allow users to add personal or project-specific words.
• Performance optimization: Incremental spellcheck updates instead of full-file checks.
• Configurable options: Let users configure ignore lists, and other spellcheck settings.
• Better LSP features: Signature help, go-to-definition for words in user-defined dictionaries.

Contributions and suggestions are welcome! This project is still in early stages and mainly a prototype for integrating zspell with LSP.
