* Description
This layer adds support for the Scala language to Spacemacs.
** Features:
- Syntax highlighting
- Support for language backend. Either using [[https://ensime.github.io/][ENSIME]] or [[https://scalameta.org/metals/][Metals]]
- Auto-completion
- Syntax-checking
- Refactoring
- Incremental compilation
- Scala Repl
- Style linting
- Eldoc integration
- Test execution directly from Emacs
- Automatic replacement of ASCII arrows with unicode ones
* Layer Installation
To use this configuration layer, add it to your =~/.spacemacs=. You will need to
add =scala= to the existing =dotspacemacs-configuration-layers= list in this
file.
Then, you should modify your =~/.spacemacs= to use the recommended Ensime
version (Stable). Please add the following lines to =dotspacemacs/user-init=:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(add-to-list 'configuration-layer-elpa-archives '("melpa-stable" . "stable.melpa.org/packages/"))
(add-to-list 'package-pinned-packages '(ensime . "melpa-stable"))
#+END_SRC
* Backends
The currently supported language backends are:
- scala-ensime (default)
- scala-metals
To set your choice of backend, configure the layer variable =scala-backend=.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((scala :variables scala-backend 'scala-ensime))) ;or 'scala-metals
#+END_SRC
** Ensime
[[https://ensime.github.io/][ENSIME]] provides IDE-like features, such as refactoring, incremental compilation
and project-wide type-checking.
ENSIME requires a configuration file at the root of each Scala project. It
provides an SBT plugin, a gradle plugin and others (see [[https://web.archive.org/web/20190427005241/https://ensime.github.io/build_tools/][ensime.org]] for a full
list) to generate these files.
*** Installation when using SBT
Find it with your favourite package manager, eg:
#+BEGIN_SRC shell
nix-env --install sbt
#+END_SRC
or refer to [[http://www.scala-sbt.org/download.html][the sbt installation instructions]].
*** Installation when using Gradle
Refer to the [[https://web.archive.org/web/20190324005432/http://ensime.github.io/build_tools/gradle/][Ensime installation instructions]] to install the =ensime-gradle=
plugin.
*** Configuration
Follow [[https://web.archive.org/web/20190417132406/http://ensime.github.io/build_tools/sbt/][the ENSIME configuration instructions]]. Spacemacs uses
the development version of Ensime so follow the appropriate steps.
To use the build functions under ~SPC m b~ you need to use version =0.13.5= or
newer of =sbt=, and specify that in your project's =project/build.properties=.
For example,
#+BEGIN_SRC scala
sbt.version=0.13.11
#+END_SRC
*** Usage
~SPC SPC spacemacs/ensime-gen-and-restart~ or ~SPC m D r~ generates a new config
for a project and starts the server. Afterwards ~SPC SPC ensime~ or ~SPC m D s~
will suffice do the trick.
** Metals
Currently, you must manually install the metals server. It is possible to do so
via coursier; the latest version can be built using the following commands,
where =0.7.6= can be replaced with the current version of [[https://github.com/scalameta/metals/][Metals]]:
#+BEGIN_SRC bash
./coursier bootstrap \
--java-opt -Xss4m \
--java-opt -Xms100m \
--java-opt -Dmetals.client=emacs \
org.scalameta:metals_2.12:0.7.6 \
-r bintray:scalacenter/releases \
-r sonatype:snapshots \
-o /usr/local/bin/metals-emacs -f
#+END_SRC
You will then have the common LSP key bindings; see
[[https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/tree/develop/layers/%2Btools/lsp#key-bindings][LSP#key-bindings]] for more details.
* Scalastyle
[[http://www.scalastyle.org/][Scalastyle]] provides style-checking and linting. The Emacs functionality is
provided by Flycheck.
To use scalastyle, it must be present as an executable in your =PATH=.
- macOS users: =brew install scalastyle=
- Linux, please see [[http://www.scalastyle.org/command-line.html]]
To test if =scalastyle= executable is in your path, run =scalastyle= in a new
terminal, it should output something like:
#+BEGIN_SRC bash
$ scalastyle
scalastyle 0.8.0
Usage: scalastyle [options] <source directory>
...
#+END_SRC
Finally, enable the =syntax-checking= layer and set the =flycheck-scalastylerc=
variable to a valid location.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default flycheck-scalastylerc "/usr/local/etc/scalastyle_config.xml")
#+END_SRC
See the [[http://www.flycheck.org/en/latest/languages.html?highlight=scala#syntax-checker-scala-scalastyle][flycheck documentation]] and [[http://www.scalastyle.org/configuration.html][scalastyle configuration]] for up-to-date
configuration instructions.
** Use Java doc-style
To enable =java-doc-style=, set the variable =scala-indent:use-javadoc-style= to
=t=
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
(scala :variables scala-indent:use-javadoc-style t)))
#+END_SRC
* Automatically show the type of the symbol under the cursor
To enable the feature =ensime-type-at-point= when cursor moves, set the
variable =scala-enable-eldoc= to =t=.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
(scala :variables scala-enable-eldoc t)))
#+END_SRC
Enabling this option can cause slow editor performance.
* Automatically insert asterisk in multiline comments
To insert a leading asterisk in multiline comments automatically, set the
variable =scala-auto-insert-asterisk-in-comments= to =t=.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
(scala :variables scala-auto-insert-asterisk-in-comments t)))
#+END_SRC
* Automatically replace arrows with unicode ones
To replace ~=>~, =->= and =<-= with unicode arrows =⇒=, =→= and =←=, set the
variable =scala-use-unicode-arrows= to =t=.
If in some occasions you don't want the arrows replaced (for example when
defining compound operators like ~=>>~), you can always undo the change and get
the ascii arrows back.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
(scala :variables scala-use-unicode-arrows t)))
#+END_SRC
* Auto-start
If you prefer to have the backend start when you load a scala file, you can enable it
with
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
(scala :variables scala-auto-start-backend t)))
#+END_SRC
