Rethink lsp defaults
+ Allow LSP to prompt to install servers. All this machinary just adds
more confusion for beginners, and at least LSP asks for your permission
before it does it.
+ Reverts lsp-enable-file-watchers and lsp-enable-indentation to their
default (enabled), hopefully to help lsp-java, lsp-dart, and lsp-clojure
users, for whom file-watchers seems to be necessary.
+ Apply GC/IPC optimizations globally, to ensure their reach. By only
setting them buffer-locally we don't have a guarantee that subprocesses
will be affected when the lsp buffer isn't focused.

Closes #3989

* Description
This module integrates [[https://langserver.org/][language servers]] into Doom Emacs. They provide features
you'd expect from IDEs, like code completion, realtime linting, language-aware
imenu/xref integration, jump-to-definition/references support, and more.
To get LSP working, you'll need to do three things:
1. Enable this module,
2. Install a language server appropriate for your targeted language(s) (you'll
find a table mapping languages to available servers [[https://github.com/emacs-lsp/lsp-mode#supported-languages][in the lsp-mode project
README]]).
3. Enable the =+lsp= flag on the =:lang= modules you want to enable LSP support
for. If your language's module doesn't have LSP support, and you know it can
(or should), please let us know! In the meantime, you must configure it
yourself (described in the Configuration section).
As of this writing, this is the state of LSP support in Doom Emacs:

** Module Flags
+ =+peek= Use =lsp-ui-peek= when looking up definitions and references with
functionality from the =:tools lookup= module.
+ =+eglot= Use [[https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/eglot.html][Eglot]] instead of [[https://github.com/emacs-lsp/lsp-mode][LSP-mode]] to implement the LSP client in
Emacs.
** Plugins
+ [[https://github.com/emacs-lsp/lsp-mode][lsp-mode]]
+ [[https://github.com/emacs-lsp/lsp-ui][lsp-ui]]
+ [[https://github.com/emacs-lsp/lsp-ivy][lsp-ivy]]
+ [[https://github.com/emacs-lsp/helm-lsp][helm-lsp]]
+ [[https://github.com/joaotavora/eglot][eglot]]
* Prerequisites
This module has no direct prerequisites, but different languages will need
different language servers, which =lsp-mode= will prompt you to auto-install.
=eglot= will not.
A table that lists available language servers and how to install them can be
found [[https://emacs-lsp.github.io/lsp-mode/page/languages/][on the lsp-mode project README]]. The documentation of the module for your
targeted language will contain brief instructions as well.
For eglot users, a list of [[https://github.com/joaotavora/eglot/blob/master/README.md#connecting-to-a-server][default servers supported is on Eglot's README]],
including instructions to register your own.
* TODO Features
** LSP-powered project search
Without the =+eglot= flag, and when =:completion ivy= or =:completion helm= is
active, LSP is used to search a symbol indexed by the LSP server :
| Keybind | Description |
|-----------+-------------------------------------|
| =SPC c j= | Jump to symbol in current workspace |
| =SPC c J= | Jump to symbol in any workspace |
** Differences between eglot and lsp-mode
Entering the debate about which one to use would be useless. Doom provides an
easy way to switch out lsp client implementations so you can test for yourself
which one you prefer.
Mainly, from a code point of view, lsp-mode has a lot of custom code for UI
(=lsp-ui-peek=, =lsp-ui-sideline=, ...), while eglot is more barebones with a
closer integration with "more basic" emacs packages (=eldoc=, =xref=, ...).
* TODO Configuration
* TODO Troubleshooting
** My language server is not found
Check the entry in the [[../../../docs/faq.org][FAQ]] about "Doom can't find my executables/doesn't inherit
the correct ~PATH~"
** LSP/Eglot is not started automatically in my buffer
Make sure that you added the =+lsp= flag to the language you're using too in
your init.el :
#+BEGIN_SRC diff
:lang
-python
+(python +lsp)
#+END_SRC
