Workspaces and LSP Nonfunctional

help
1

Hello,

I am wondering if it's possible to use a Rust workspace with LSPs. I think I'd need to configure a rust-project.json, but whenever I've created one of these containing a simple sysroot_src and a single crate with a path to the root module, rust_analyzer gets unhappy and claims to fail to load the workspace.

Am I making this too hard? Is there a simpler way to create a Rust monorepo where I can cross-chain dependencies for various crates I may be developing? Right now I feel like I'm spending too much time fighting getting my editor working instead of just writing and learning Rust.

Okay so I have a temporary workaround, I think. There were a few issues:

  1. I had a typo in my rust-project.json, and my LSP logs showed this after some digging.
  2. Once #1 was resolved, I was only getting basic linting and no compiler feedback in my editor. If I abandon workspaces and instead use parallel crates in a repo + relative paths for the dependencies, Cargo still builds and my LSP in my editor gives me full usual feedback and recognizes the relative paths as well.
