Khulnasoft Language Server (Khulnasoft-LS)
Supported features
The language server follows the Language Server Protocol
and integrates with Khulnasoft Open Source, Khulnasoft Infrastructure as Code and Khulnasoft Code. For the former two, it uses the Khulnasoft
CLI as a data provider, for the latter it is connecting directly to the Khulnasoft Code API.
Right now the language server supports the following actions:
- Send diagnostics to client on opening a document if it's part of the current set of folders.
- Starting a folder scan on startup and sending diagnostics.
- Starting a workspace scan of all folders on command.
- Cache diagnostics until saving or triggering a new workspace scan.
- Invalidate caches on saving a document and retrieve saved document diagnostics anew.
- Provides range calculation to correctly highlight Khulnasoft Open Source issues in their file.
- Provides formatted hovers with diagnostic details and follow-up links
- Progress reporting to the client for background jobs
- Notifications & Log messages to the client
- Authentication when needed, using OAuth2 or Token authentication and opening a webpage if necessary
- Copying the authentication URL to clipboard if there are problems opening a webpage
- Automatic download of the Khulnasoft CLI if none is found or configured to XDG_DATA_HOME
- Selective activation of products according to settings transmitted
- Scanning errors are reported as diagnostics to the Language Server Client
- Code Lenses to navigate the Khulnasoft Code dataflow from within the editor
- Code Actions for in-editor commands, like opening a browser, doing a quickfix or opening a Khulnasoft Learn lesson
for the found diagnostic

Installation
Download
The release workflow stores the generated executables, so that they can be
downloaded here. Just select the release you want the build
artefacts from and download the zip file attached to it. Currently, executables for Windows, macOS and Linux are
generated.
The currently published binary can be retrieved with this bash script, please keep in mind that
the protocol version is part of the download link and can change to force plugin / language server
synchronization. For further information please see CONTRIBUTING.md.

}
activateKhulnasoftCode
automatically toggles the value of activateKhulnasoftCodeSecurity
and activateKhulnasoftCodeQuality
.
Therefore,
to enable only one of the two analysis types, activateKhulnasoftCode
must be removed from Initialization Options for the
specific
analysis type option to have an effect.
Workspace Trust
As part of examining the codebase for vulnerabilities, Khulnasoft may automatically execute code on your computer to obtain
additional data for analysis. For example, this includes invoking the package manager (e.g., pip, gradle, maven, yarn,
npm, etc.)
to get dependency information for Khulnasoft Open Source. Invoking these programs on untrusted code that has malicious
configurations may expose your system to malicious code execution and exploits.
To safeguard from using the language server on untrusted folders, our language server will ask for folder trust
before running scans against these folders. When in doubt, do not grant trust.
The trust feature is enabled by default. When a folder is trusted, all sub-folders are also trusted. After a folder
is trusted, Khulnasoft Language Server notifies the Language Server Client with the custom $/khulnasoft.addTrustedFolders
notification,
which contains a list of currently trusted folder paths. Based on this, a client can then implement logic to intercept
this notification and persist the decision and trust in the IDE or Editor storage mechanism.
Trust dialogs can be disabled by setting enableTrustedFoldersFeature
to false
in the initialization options. This
will disable all trust prompts and checks.
An initial set of trusted folders can be provided by setting trustedFolders
to an array of paths in the
initializationOptions
. These folders will be trusted on startup and will not prompt the user to trust them.
Environment variables
Khulnasoft LS and Khulnasoft CLI support and need certain environment variables to function:
HTTP_PROXY
, HTTPS_PROXY
and NO_PROXY
to define the http proxy to be used
JAVA_HOME
to analyse Java JVM-based projects via Khulnasoft CLI
PATH
to find maven when analysing Maven projects, to find python, etc
Auto-Configuration
To automatically add these variables to the environment, Khulnasoft LS searches for the following files, with the order
determining precedence. If the executable is not called from an already configured environment (e.g. via
zsh -i -c 'khulnasoft-ls'
), you can also specify config file with the -c
command line flag for setting the above mentioned
variables. Khulnasoft LS reads the following files in the given precedence and order, not overwriting the already loaded
variables.
given config file via -c flag
<working-dir>/.khulnasoft.env
$HOME/.khulnasoft.env
Any lines that contain an environment variable in the format
VARIABLENAME=VARIABLEVALUE
are added automatically to the environment if not already existent. This adheres to the
dotenv
format. In case of .profile
, .zshrc
, etc., if a variable is directly exported e.g. via
export VARIABLENAME=VARIABLEVALUE
, it is not loaded. The export would need to be split of and be in its own line, e.g
VARIABLENAME=VARIABLEVALUE
export VARIABLENAME
The PATH variable is treated differently than all other variables, as it is an aggregate of all PATH variables found in
the files and in the environment. Also, the current working directory .
is automatically added to the path, so a
download of the Khulnasoft CLI into the current working directory by an LSP client would yield a found Khulnasoft CLI for the
Language Server.
In addition to configuring variables via config files, Khulnasoft LS adds the following directories to the path on linux
and macOS:
- /bin
- $HOME/bin
- /usr/local/bin
- $JAVA_HOME/bin
If no JAVA_HOME is set, it automatically searches for a java executable first in path, then in the following directories
and adds the parent directory of its parent as JAVA_HOME. The following directories are recursively searched:
- /usr/lib
- /usr/java
- /opt
- /Library
- $HOME/.sdkman
- C:\Program Files
- C:\Program Files (x86)
The same directories are searched for a maven executable and the parent directory is added to the path.
Khulnasoft CLI
To find the automatically managed Khulnasoft CLI,
the XDG Data Home
and PATH
path are automatically scanned for the OS-dependent file, e.g. khulnasoft-macos
on macOS,
khulnasoft-linux
on Linux and khulnasoft-win.exe
on Windows, and the first path where it is found is added to the environment.
It is later used for all functionality that depends on the CLI.
Setting environment variables globally
If you want to have the environment variables available system-wide, you would need to add the variables
to /etc/environment
or on macOS to /etc/launchd.conf
or set them via launchctl
in a shell script. The former two
locations are automatically read by khulnasoft lsp. On Windows, a user variable can be defined via the UI for the user or
system-wide. In a file like ~/.profile
it would like this:
KHULNASOFT_TOKEN=<your-token-from-app.khulnasoft.com>
DEEPROXY_API_URL=https://deeproxy.khulnasoft.com/
# export variables, but make sure the export is not on the same line as the variable definition
export KHULNASOFT_TOKEN
export DEEPROXY_API_URL
Authentication to Khulnasoft
The Khulnasoft LS authentication flow happens automatically, unless disabled in configuration, and is as follows. When Khulnasoft
Language Server starts, it:
- If the endpoint is a khulnasoftgov.io endpoint, or the authenticationMethod is set to
oauth
, it authenticates via OAuth2.
This opens a browser window.
- If the authentication method is not
oauth
, it tries to retrieve a token using the Khulnasoft CLI token authentication.
- If the CLI is not authenticated either, it opens a browser window to authenticate
- If there are problems opening the browser window, the auth URL can be copied to the clipboard (via implementation
of
khulnasoft.copyAuthLink
). Note that there is a requirement to have xsel
or xclip
installed for Linux/Unix users
for this feature.
After successfull authentication in the web browser, the Khulnasoft Language Server
automatically retrieves the Khulnasoft authentication credentials and uses them for further requests.
Run Tests
go test ./...
If you have any issues with running pact, please extend your PATH env.
For example:
PATH=$PATH:$PWD/.bin/pact/bin make test
The output should look like this (it is running against the Khulnasoft Code API and using the real CLI):
