DreamMaker Language Client

This VS Code extension acts as a client to the DreamMaker language server, a component of SpacemanDMM. It provides language-related services for DreamMaker, the scripting language of the BYOND engine. It also includes syntax highlighting definitions.

The extension has an optional auto-update feature for the language server, with binaries available for Windows and Linux.

On other platforms, the path to the `dm-langserver` binary must be specified manually.

For other platforms such as macOS/darwin, you'll need to clone the source repository for the dm-langserver linked above. Once cloned, with rust installed, you'll follow that repo's README to compile the langserver (takes about 7 minutes without rust already having the dependencies cached). In the resulting '/target/release/' directory in the repo's root folder, you'll find 'dm-langserver'. When opening a repo with a .dme, I.E. tgstation - this extension will prompt you to find your dm-langserver executable and select it. (Be sure to not enable auto-update when prompted, the autoupdate server will not contain darwin/x64 binaries)

Language server features include:

Workspace symbol search (Ctrl+T).
Go to definition (Ctrl+Click).
Go to type definition.
As-you-type autocomplete.
Signature help in proc calls.

Current file outline view.
