Haskell-language-server-1.4.0 release

After a month of vacation a new hls release has arrived:

  • Support for ghc 8.10.6 and 8.10.7
  • The ormolu formatter plugin works with ghc 9.0.1
  • Call hierarchy plugin has been improved thanks to @July541:
    • Add call from type signature
    • Add call from a function pattern
    • Go to typeclass instance directly
  • As usual @isovector has been busy improving wingman plugin:
    • New “intro and destruct” code action
    • Streaming tactic solutions: when Wingman times outs, it can still pick the best solution it found
    • Let-bindings in metattactics: allows you to bind variables in tactic metaprogram
    • Several bug fixes
  • We have new docs thanks to @michaelpj: https://haskell-language-server.readthedocs.io
  • Now you can ask the executable for included plugins with: haskell-language-server --list-plugins
  • There are several bug fixes and features you can found in the merged pull requests list

DEPRECATION NOTICE

  • After this release we will drop support for ghc versions 8.6.4, 8.10.3 and 8.10.4
    • The advise is upgrade ghc to the last minor version: 8.6.5 or 8.10.7
    • Take a look to this issue for more details
