We can submit fortran-lang/homebrew-fortran#13 to homebrew-core. Only thing needed is a proper test (--help / --version is not accepted in homebrew-core), can you post an example to start the language server and send a request, which is usable as a minimal test?

[gnikit]

I don't think we can "test" by running the actual server because it opens (and does not close) IO streams. We can run one-off commands via the --debug_... commands

Okay, let's try and see what the homebrew maintainers say. Do you want to give it a shot?

[gnikit]

Sure, would something like this work?

$ cat main.f90
program main
end program main
$ fortls --debug_filepath main.f90 --debug_symbols --debug_full_result

Testing "textDocument/documentSymbol" request:
  File = "main.f90"
[
  {
    "name": "main",
    "kind": 2,
    "location": {
      "uri": "main.f90",
      "range": {
        "start": {
          "line": 0,
          "character": 0
        },
        "end": {
          "line": 1,
          "character": 0
        }
      }
    }
  }
]

Do you want to give it a shot?

Just remembered that homebrew doesn't like self-submissions (see https://docs.brew.sh/Acceptable-Formulae), last time I tripped one of the rules my PR was plain rejected (LFortran, because it was beta software). I'll setup a PR later.

Another problem might be that fortls has the ability to autoupdate, you have to --disable_autoupdate to stop that
see https://docs.brew.sh/Acceptable-Formulae#we-dont-like-tools-that-upgrade-themselves
