Run LSP/Linter/Formatter on a remote server

[blueberryscone238]

The source code is still stored locally on my computer. I also have the compiler and the debugger running locally on my computer. Only the LSP/Linter/Formatter tools running on a remote server.

This will depend on the particular LSP, an LSP with socket connections can work remotely. You can configure ecode to use TCP instead of stdio, it's in the documentation, but if you're trying to run clangd remotely (we already talked about it) you won't be able, since it does not support this feature.

I want to run typescript language server. Can you have a look?

[SpartanJ]

It's not possible either (most language servers do not implement anything else than stdio).

The AI proposed to me many solutions. I think using SSH to run the LSP servers on the remote machine is very likely to work.

You need something acting as a proxy or a relay for the TCP connection. But besides that, the LSP must be prepared to function remotely, otherwise it will fail in many many ways.
