Bug ID: 479779
Summary: textDocument/formatting LSP message causes duplication
of buffer text
Classification: Applications
Product: kate

debug log from kate, with lsp logs
SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
Given the following document of Nix code:
let x = 5;
in 1
When the formatting button is pressed using the nixd language server, the
following becomes the buffer content:
in 1
let x = 5;
in 1
This is essentially pasting the content of the file a second time, which is a
bug. This does not happen in neovim with coc, and I strongly suspect this is a
bug in kate's LSP client.
This is what the language server responds to the format request with:
"{\"id\":4,\"jsonrpc\":\"2.0\",\"result\":[{\"newText\":\"let x = 5;\\nin
1\\n\",\"range\":{\"end\":{\"character\":2147483647,\"line\":2147483647},\"start\":{\"character\":0,\"line\":0}}}]}"
This message is intending to overwrite the entire contents of the file with the
provided text. However, kate seems to do something different with it.
I have attached a full debug log of the LSP interaction.
I ran kate with the following:
LSPCLIENT_DEBUG=1 QT_FORCE_STDERR_LOGGING=1
QT_LOGGING_RULES='katelspclientplugin=true;default.debug=true' kate --startanon
-b bad.nix
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
0. Acquire nixd and nixpkgs-fmt from nixpkgs. If you have nix, this can be done
with `nix-shell -p nixd nixpkgs-fmt`, then running kate from the resulting
shell.
1. Configure kate with nixd like so:
{
"servers": {
"nix": {
"command": ["nixd"],
"highlightingModeRegex": "^Nix$"
}
}
}
2. Write this into bad.nix:
let x = 5;
in 1
3. Press the LSP format button
4. Get mangled text
OBSERVED RESULT
Text is mangled.
EXPECTED RESULT
Text should be replaced with the new text from the language server.
