CHANGELOG

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog.

Note

JETLS uses date-based versioning (YYYY-MM-DD) rather than semantic versioning, as it is not registered in General due to environment isolation requirements.

Each dated section below corresponds to a release that can be installed via Pkg.Apps.add(; url="https://github.com/aviatesk/JETLS.jl", rev="YYYY-MM-DD")

To install the latest version regardless of date, re-run the installation command:

julia -e 'using Pkg; Pkg.Apps.add(; url="https://github.com/aviatesk/JETLS.jl", rev="release")'

Unreleased

Commit: HEAD
Diff: ebcbd60...HEAD

JETLS currently has a known memory leak issue where memory usage grows with each re-analysis (aviatesk/JETLS.jl#357). As a temporary workaround, you can disable full-analysis for specific files using the analysis_overrides initialization option:

// VSCode settings.json example
{
  "jetls-client.initializationOptions": {
    "analysis_overrides": [
      { "path": "src/**/*.jl" },
      { "path": "test/**/*.jl" }
    ]
  }
}

This disables analysis for matched files. Basic features like completion still might work, but most LSP features will be unfunctional. Note that analysis_overrides is provided as a temporary workaround and may be removed or changed at any time. A proper fix is being worked on.

Installation:

julia -e 'using Pkg; Pkg.Apps.add(; url="https://github.com/aviatesk/JETLS.jl", rev="2026-02-26")'

Added

Added jetls schema CLI command that prints the JSON Schema for JETLS configuration. Supports --settings, --init-options, and --config-toml options.
Added schema generation infrastructure under scripts/schema/ and committed generated schema files under schemas/. CI now checks that the schema files and jetls-client/package.json stay in sync with src/types.jl.
Added inference/method-error diagnostic that detects function calls where no matching method exists for the inferred argument types. This catches potential MethodErrors that would occur at runtime. For union-split calls, the diagnostic reports only the failing branches with their count (e.g., "1/2 union split").

Changed

textDocument/documentSymbol now shows for, let, while, and try/catch/else/finally blocks inside functions as hierarchical Namespace symbols. Previously, all local bindings within a function were shown as flat children; now, bindings inside scope constructs are nested under the scope construct, matching the existing behavior for top-level scope constructs.
textDocument/documentSymbol now strips redundant name prefixes from symbol details. (e.g., a symbol named foo with detail foo = func(args...) now shows = func(args...) as the detail.
