Vyper LSP Server

Requirements

Vyper LSP requires a minimum vyper version of 0.3.7. For full support, it is also required that the Vyper version installed in your virtual environment is capable of compiling your contract.

For example, a vyper contract with #pragma version 0.3.8 cannot be compiled with 0.3.10, so you must install vyper==0.3.8 if you want full support while working with this contract.

A contract with #pragma version >=0.3.8 will work fine with any installed vyper version greater than the requirement, so you can get full support while editing this contract if you have the latest vyper version installed.

Install Vyper-LSP

via pipx

I like pipx because it handles creating an isolated env for executables and putting them on your path.

pipx install git+https://github.com/vyperlang/vyper-lsp.git

via pip

You can install using pip if you manage your environments through some other means:

TODO: publish on pypi

pip install git+https://github.com/vyperlang/vyper-lsp.git

Verify installation

Check that vyper-lsp is on your path:

In your terminal, run which vyper-lsp. If installation was succesful, you should see the path to your installed executable.

Editor Setup

Emacs

The following emacs lisp snippet will create a Vyper mode derived from Python Mode, and sets up vyper-lsp.

(define-derived-mode vyper-mode python-mode "Vyper" "Major mode for editing Vyper.")

(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.vy\\'" . vyper-mode))

(with-eval-after-load 'lsp-mode
  (add-to-list 'lsp-language-id-configuration
               '(vyper-mode . "vyper"))
  (lsp-register-client
   (make-lsp-client :new-connection
                    (lsp-stdio-connection `(,(executable-find "vyper-lsp")))
                    :activation-fn (lsp-activate-on "vyper")
                    :server-id 'vyper-lsp)))

Neovim

Add the following to your neovim lua config.

It should be at ~/.config/nvim/init.lua

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({ "BufEnter" }, {
  pattern = { "*.vy" },
  callback = function()
    vim.lsp.start({
      name = "vyper-lsp",
      cmd = { "vyper-lsp" },
      root_dir = vim.fs.dirname(vim.fs.find({ ".git" }, { upward = true })[1])
    })
  end,
})

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({ "BufEnter" }, {
  pattern = { "*.vy" },
  callback = function()
    vim.lsp.start({
      name = "vyper-lsp",
      cmd = { "vyper-lsp" },
      root_dir = vim.fs.dirname(vim.fs.find({ ".git" }, { upward = true })[1])
    })
  end,
})

vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', 'gd', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.buf.definition()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', 'gD', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.buf.declaration()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', 'gr', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.buf.references()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', 'gi', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.buf.implementation()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', 'K', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.buf.hover()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<C-k>', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.buf.signature_help()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '[d', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.diagnostic.goto_prev()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', ']d', '<Cmd>lua vim.lsp.diagnostic.goto_next()<CR>', { noremap = true, silent = true })
