Use the TypeScript language server in the clickhouse-js repo for go-to-definition, find references, hover types, symbol search, and per-file diagnostics.
About
Uses the typescript-language-server for precise code intelligence in the clickhouse-js repo: definitions, references, hover types, symbol search, and diagnostics. A developer uses it instead of grep to resolve symbols and inspect inferred types across the workspaces.
- Preferred over grep for resolving definitions and usages
- Requires npm install (setup skill) to populate node_modules

TypeScript Language Server in clickhouse-js
typescript-language-server is declared as a root devDependency, so after npm install (see the setup skill) it is available via npx and uses the workspace-local typescript (6.x) compiler, matching CI exactly.
Starting the server
From the repo root:
npx typescript-language-server --stdioIt speaks LSP (JSON-RPC, Content-Length-framed) over stdio. There is no extra configuration: each packages/* workspace, tests/clickhouse-test-runner, examples/node, and examples/web has its own tsconfig.json, and the server picks the nearest one per opened file automatically.
Protocol essentials
1. Send initialize with rootUri/workspaceFolders pointing at the repo root, then the initialized notification. 2. Send textDocument/didOpen with the full file text for every file you want to query (the server reads dependencies from disk on its own; only files you query positions in need to be opened). 3. Positions are 0-based (line and character).
Verified capabilities (typescript-language-server 5.x, TS 6.x)
| Request | Notes |
|---|---|
textDocument/hover | Returns the full inferred signature + JSDoc markdown |
textDocument/definition | Resolves across workspace packages via source, not dist/ |
textDocument/references | Within the opened file's project |
workspace/symbol | e.g. query ClickHouseClient finds class + re-exports |
textDocument/completion | Context-aware member completions |
| Diagnostics | Push only (textDocument/publishDiagnostics notifications, sent ~1–3s after didOpen). The pull textDocument/diagnostic request is _not_ supported (-32601) — wait for the push notification instead. |
Tips
- If your environment provides built-in LSP/code-intelligence tooling, point
it at npx typescript-language-server --stdio with the repo root as the workspace folder.
- For one-off scripted queries, spawn the server from Node, frame messages
with Content-Length: <bytes>\r\n\r\n<json>, and match responses by id.
- A full workspace typecheck is still
npm run build && npm run typecheck
(build first — some workspaces import compiled dist/ outputs); the LSP is for targeted, interactive queries, not for CI-equivalent validation.
