  • format formats the code.

The following functionality is incomplete:

  • doComplete provides completion proposals for a given location.

vscode-json-languageservice type definitions

This depends on internals of vscode-json-languageservice where relevant type information is not currently published (see Microsoft/vscode-json-languageservice#11). To workaround this limitation, external type definitions are used. When newer type definitions are needed, manually compile vscode-json-languageservice locally and copy the resulting type definitions over the definitions in the types directory of this project.
