Create IntelliJ IDEA / Rust Rover plugin for LUMOS

[rz1989s]

Goal

Build an IntelliJ IDEA and Rust Rover plugin for LUMOS with syntax highlighting, auto-completion, and diagnostics.

Phase: 5.2 IDE Integration
Depends On: #45 (LSP implementation)

---

Problem

JetBrains IDEs (IntelliJ IDEA, Rust Rover, CLion) have no LUMOS support:

• ❌ No syntax highlighting for .lumos files
• ❌ No auto-completion
• ❌ No error diagnostics
• ❌ Treated as plain text

---

Solution

Create JetBrains plugin that integrates with LUMOS LSP server.

Target IDEs

• IntelliJ IDEA (Community & Ultimate)
• Rust Rover (JetBrains' Rust IDE)
• CLion (C++ IDE, used for Rust dev)

---

Implementation Approach

Option 1: LSP Client Plugin (Recommended)

Use existing LSP client for JetBrains IDEs:

• Leverage lumos-lsp server from Implement Language Server Protocol (LSP) for LUMOS #45
• Configure LSP client to communicate with our server
• Get all features for free (completion, diagnostics, hover)

Pros:

• ✅ Minimal code (just configuration)
• ✅ Reuses existing LSP server
• ✅ Consistent with other editors
• ✅ Easier to maintain

Cons:

• ⚠️ Depends on LSP client plugin availability

Option 2: Native Plugin

Build custom IntelliJ plugin from scratch:

• Implement lexer/parser in Kotlin
• Custom syntax highlighting
• Custom completion provider

Pros:

• ✅ Full control over features
• ✅ Native IntelliJ integration

Cons:

• ❌ Much more work
• ❌ Duplicate logic from LSP server
• ❌ Harder to maintain

Decision: Go with Option 1 (LSP client)

Implementation Details

1. File Type Registration

File: LumosFileType.kt

package com.lumos

import com.intellij.openapi.fileTypes.LanguageFileType
import javax.swing.Icon

object LumosFileType : LanguageFileType(LumosLanguage) {
    override fun getName() = "LUMOS"
    override fun getDescription() = "LUMOS schema language"
    override fun getDefaultExtension() = "lumos"
    override fun getIcon(): Icon = LumosIcons.FILE
}

2. Language Definition

File: LumosLanguage.kt

package com.lumos

import com.intellij.lang.Language

object LumosLanguage : Language("LUMOS") {
    override fun getDisplayName() = "LUMOS"
    override fun isCaseSensitive() = true
}

3. LSP Server Integration

File: LumosLspServerDescriptor.kt

package com.lumos

import com.intellij.execution.configurations.GeneralCommandLine
import com.intellij.openapi.project.Project
import com.intellij.openapi.vfs.VirtualFile
import com.intellij.platform.lsp.api.LspServerSupportProvider
import com.intellij.platform.lsp.api.ProjectWideLspServerDescriptor

class LumosLspServerSupportProvider : LspServerSupportProvider {
    override fun fileOpened(
        project: Project,
        file: VirtualFile,
        serverStarter: LspServerSupportProvider.LspServerStarter
    ) {
        if (file.extension == "lumos") {
            serverStarter.ensureServerStarted(LumosLspServerDescriptor(project))
        }
    }
}

class LumosLspServerDescriptor(project: Project) : ProjectWideLspServerDescriptor(project, "LUMOS") {
    override fun createCommandLine(): GeneralCommandLine {
        return GeneralCommandLine("lumos-lsp")
    }
    
    override fun isSupportedFile(file: VirtualFile) = file.extension == "lumos"
}
