## rust-analyzer.assist.termSearch.borrowcheck {#assist.termSearch.borrowcheck}

Default: `true`

Enable borrow checking for term search code assists. If set to false, also there will be
more suggestions, but some of them may not borrow-check.


## rust-analyzer.assist.termSearch.fuel {#assist.termSearch.fuel}

Default: `1800`

Term search fuel in "units of work" for assists (Defaults to 1800).


## rust-analyzer.cachePriming.enable {#cachePriming.enable}

Default: `true`

Warm up caches on project load.


## rust-analyzer.cachePriming.numThreads {#cachePriming.numThreads}

Default: `"physical"`

How many worker threads to handle priming caches. The default `0` means to pick
automatically.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.allTargets {#cargo.allTargets}

Default: `true`

Pass `--all-targets` to cargo invocation.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.autoreload {#cargo.autoreload}

Default: `true`

Automatically refresh project info via `cargo metadata` on
`Cargo.toml` or `.cargo/config.toml` changes.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.buildScripts.enable {#cargo.buildScripts.enable}

Default: `true`

Run build scripts (`build.rs`) for more precise code analysis.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.buildScripts.invocationStrategy {#cargo.buildScripts.invocationStrategy}

Default: `"per_workspace"`

Specifies the invocation strategy to use when running the build scripts command.
If `per_workspace` is set, the command will be executed for each Rust workspace with the
workspace as the working directory.
If `once` is set, the command will be executed once with the opened project as the
working directory.
This config only has an effect when `#rust-analyzer.cargo.buildScripts.overrideCommand#`
is set.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.buildScripts.overrideCommand {#cargo.buildScripts.overrideCommand}

Default: `null`

Override the command rust-analyzer uses to run build scripts and
build procedural macros. The command is required to output json
and should therefore include `--message-format=json` or a similar
option.

If there are multiple linked projects/workspaces, this command is invoked for
each of them, with the working directory being the workspace root
(i.e., the folder containing the `Cargo.toml`). This can be overwritten
by changing `#rust-analyzer.cargo.buildScripts.invocationStrategy#`.

By default, a cargo invocation will be constructed for the configured
targets and features, with the following base command line:

```bash
cargo check --quiet --workspace --message-format=json --all-targets --keep-going
```

Note: The option must be specified as an array of command line arguments, with
the first argument being the name of the command to run.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.buildScripts.rebuildOnSave {#cargo.buildScripts.rebuildOnSave}

Default: `true`

Rerun proc-macros building/build-scripts running when proc-macro
or build-script sources change and are saved.

```json
[
  "debug_assertions",
  "miri"
]
```

List of cfg options to enable with the given values.

To enable a name without a value, use `"key"`.
To enable a name with a value, use `"key=value"`.
To disable, prefix the entry with a `!`.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.extraArgs {#cargo.extraArgs}

Default: `[]`

Extra arguments that are passed to every cargo invocation.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.extraEnv {#cargo.extraEnv}

Default: `{}`

Extra environment variables that will be set when running cargo, rustc
or other commands within the workspace. Useful for setting RUSTFLAGS.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.features {#cargo.features}

List of features to activate.

Set this to `"all"` to pass `--all-features` to cargo.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.metadataExtraArgs {#cargo.metadataExtraArgs}

Useful for flags like `--config` that `cargo metadata` supports.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.noDefaultFeatures {#cargo.noDefaultFeatures}

Default: `false`

Whether to pass `--no-default-features` to cargo.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.noDeps {#cargo.noDeps}

Whether to skip fetching dependencies. If set to "true", the analysis is performed
entirely offline, and Cargo metadata for dependencies is not fetched.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.sysroot {#cargo.sysroot}

Default: `"discover"`

Relative path to the sysroot, or "discover" to try to automatically find it via
"rustc --print sysroot".

Unsetting this disables sysroot loading.

This option does not take effect until rust-analyzer is restarted.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.sysrootSrc {#cargo.sysrootSrc}

Default: `null`

Relative path to the sysroot library sources. If left unset, this will default to
`{cargo.sysroot}/lib/rustlib/src/rust/library`.

This option does not take effect until rust-analyzer is restarted.


## rust-analyzer.cargo.target {#cargo.target}

Default: `null`

Compilation target override (target tuple).


## rust-analyzer.cargo.targetDir {#cargo.targetDir}

Default: `null`

Optional path to a rust-analyzer specific target directory.
This prevents rust-analyzer's `cargo check` and initial build-script and proc-macro
building from locking the `Cargo.lock` at the expense of duplicating build artifacts.

Set to `true` to use a subdirectory of the existing target directory or
set to a path relative to the workspace to use that path.


## rust-analyzer.cfg.setTest {#cfg.setTest}

Default: `true`

Set `cfg(test)` for local crates. Defaults to true.


## rust-analyzer.checkOnSave {#checkOnSave}

Default: `true`

Run the check command for diagnostics on save.


## rust-analyzer.check.allTargets {#check.allTargets}

Default: `null`

Check all targets and tests (`--all-targets`). Defaults to
`#rust-analyzer.cargo.allTargets#`.


## rust-analyzer.check.command {#check.command}

Default: `"check"`

Cargo command to use for `cargo check`.


## rust-analyzer.check.extraArgs {#check.extraArgs}

Default: `[]`

Extra arguments for `cargo check`.


## rust-analyzer.check.extraEnv {#check.extraEnv}

Default: `{}`

Extra environment variables that will be set when running `cargo check`.
Extends `#rust-analyzer.cargo.extraEnv#`.


## rust-analyzer.check.features {#check.features}

Default: `null`

List of features to activate. Defaults to
`#rust-analyzer.cargo.features#`.

Set to `"all"` to pass `--all-features` to Cargo.


## rust-analyzer.check.ignore {#check.ignore}

Default: `[]`

List of `cargo check` (or other command specified in `check.command`) diagnostics to ignore.

For example for `cargo check`: `dead_code`, `unused_imports`, `unused_variables`,...


## rust-analyzer.check.invocationStrategy {#check.invocationStrategy}

Default: `"per_workspace"`

Specifies the invocation strategy to use when running the check command.
If `per_workspace` is set, the command will be executed for each workspace.
If `once` is set, the command will be executed once.
This config only has an effect when `#rust-analyzer.check.overrideCommand#`
is set.


## rust-analyzer.check.noDefaultFeatures {#check.noDefaultFeatures}

Default: `null`

Whether to pass `--no-default-features` to Cargo. Defaults to
`#rust-analyzer.cargo.noDefaultFeatures#`.


## rust-analyzer.check.overrideCommand {#check.overrideCommand}

Default: `null`

Override the command rust-analyzer uses instead of `cargo check` for
diagnostics on save. The command is required to output json and
should therefore include `--message-format=json` or a similar option
(if your client supports the `colorDiagnosticOutput` experimental
capability, you can use `--message-format=json-diagnostic-rendered-ansi`).

If you're changing this because you're using some tool wrapping
Cargo, you might also want to change
`#rust-analyzer.cargo.buildScripts.overrideCommand#`.

If there are multiple linked projects/workspaces, this command is invoked for
each of them, with the working directory being the workspace root
(i.e., the folder containing the `Cargo.toml`). This can be overwritten
by changing `#rust-analyzer.check.invocationStrategy#`.

It supports two interpolation syntaxes, both mainly intended to be used with
[non-Cargo build systems](./non_cargo_based_projects.md):

- If `{saved_file}` is part of the command, rust-analyzer will pass
  the absolute path of the saved file to the provided command.
  (A previous version, `$saved_file`, also works.)
- If `{label}` is part of the command, rust-analyzer will pass the
  Cargo package ID, which can be used with `cargo check -p`, or a build label from
  `rust-project.json`. If `{label}` is included, rust-analyzer behaves much like
  [`"rust-analyzer.check.workspace": false`](#check.workspace).



An example command would be:

```bash
cargo check --workspace --message-format=json --all-targets
```

Note: The option must be specified as an array of command line arguments, with
the first argument being the name of the command to run.


## rust-analyzer.check.targets {#check.targets}

Default: `null`

Check for specific targets. Defaults to `#rust-analyzer.cargo.target#` if empty.

Can be a single target, e.g. `"x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu"` or a list of targets, e.g.
`["aarch64-apple-darwin", "x86_64-apple-darwin"]`.

Aliased as `"checkOnSave.targets"`.


## rust-analyzer.check.workspace {#check.workspace}

Default: `true`

Whether `--workspace` should be passed to `cargo check`.
If false, `-p <package>` will be passed instead if applicable. In case it is not, no
check will be performed.


## rust-analyzer.completion.addColonsToModule {#completion.addColonsToModule}

Default: `true`

Automatically add `::` when completing the module.

Will not be completed in `use`.


## rust-analyzer.completion.addSemicolonToUnit {#completion.addSemicolonToUnit}

Note that your client must specify the `additionalTextEdits` LSP client capability to
truly have this feature enabled.

```json
[
  {
    "path": "core::borrow::Borrow",

  }
]
```

A list of full paths to items to exclude from auto-importing completions.

Traits in this list won't have their methods suggested in completions unless the trait
is in scope.

You can either specify a string path which defaults to type "always" or use the more
verbose form `{ "path": "path::to::item", type: "always" }`.

For traits the type "methods" can be used to only exclude the methods but not the trait
itself.

This setting also inherits `#rust-analyzer.completion.excludeTraits#`.

`T where T: Trait`.

Note that the trait themselves can still be completed.


## rust-analyzer.completion.fullFunctionSignatures.enable {#completion.fullFunctionSignatures.enable}

Default: `false`

doc-tests.

Unless the launched target uses a
[custom test harness](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/cargo-targets.html#the-harness-field),
they will end up being interpreted as options to
[`rustc`’s built-in test harness (“libtest”)](https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/tests/index.html#cli-arguments).

Default: `[]`

Additional arguments to `rustfmt`.


## rust-analyzer.rustfmt.overrideCommand {#rustfmt.overrideCommand}

Default: `null`

Advanced option, fully override the command rust-analyzer uses for
formatting. This should be the equivalent of `rustfmt` here, and
not that of `cargo fmt`. The file contents will be passed on the
standard input and the formatted result will be read from the
standard output.

Note: The option must be specified as an array of command line arguments, with
the first argument being the name of the command to run.


## rust-analyzer.rustfmt.rangeFormatting.enable {#rustfmt.rangeFormatting.enable}

their contents.


## rust-analyzer.semanticHighlighting.doc.comment.inject.enable {#semanticHighlighting.doc.comment.inject.enable}

Default: `true`

Inject additional highlighting into doc comments.

When enabled, rust-analyzer will highlight rust source in doc comments as well as intra
doc links.


## rust-analyzer.semanticHighlighting.nonStandardTokens {#semanticHighlighting.nonStandardTokens}

Default: `true`

Emit non-standard tokens and modifiers

When enabled, rust-analyzer will emit tokens and modifiers that are not part of the
standard set of semantic tokens.


## rust-analyzer.semanticHighlighting.operator.enable {#semanticHighlighting.operator.enable}

Default: `true`

Use semantic tokens for operators.

When disabled, rust-analyzer will emit semantic tokens only for operator tokens when
they are tagged with modifiers.


## rust-analyzer.semanticHighlighting.operator.specialization.enable {#semanticHighlighting.operator.specialization.enable}

Default: `false`

When enabled, rust-analyzer will emit special token types for operator tokens instead
of the generic `operator` token type.


## rust-analyzer.semanticHighlighting.punctuation.enable {#semanticHighlighting.punctuation.enable}

Default: `false`

Use semantic tokens for punctuation.

When disabled, rust-analyzer will emit semantic tokens only for punctuation tokens when
they are tagged with modifiers or have a special role.


## rust-analyzer.semanticHighlighting.punctuation.separate.macro.bang {#semanticHighlighting.punctuation.separate.macro.bang}

calls.


## rust-analyzer.semanticHighlighting.punctuation.specialization.enable {#semanticHighlighting.punctuation.specialization.enable}

Default: `false`

Use specialized semantic tokens for punctuation.

When enabled, rust-analyzer will emit special token types for punctuation tokens instead
of the generic `punctuation` token type.


## rust-analyzer.semanticHighlighting.strings.enable {#semanticHighlighting.strings.enable}

Default: `true`

Use semantic tokens for strings.

In some editors (e.g. vscode) semantic tokens override other highlighting grammars.
By disabling semantic tokens for strings, other grammars can be used to highlight
their contents.


## rust-analyzer.signatureInfo.detail {#signatureInfo.detail}

Default: `"full"`

Show full signature of the callable. Only shows parameters if disabled.


## rust-analyzer.signatureInfo.documentation.enable {#signatureInfo.documentation.enable}

Default: `true`

Show documentation.


## rust-analyzer.typing.triggerChars {#typing.triggerChars}

Default: `"=."`

Specify the characters allowed to invoke special on typing triggers.

- typing `=` after `let` tries to smartly add `;` if `=` is followed by an existing
  expression
- typing `=` between two expressions adds `;` when in statement position
- typing `=` to turn an assignment into an equality comparison removes `;` when in
  expression position
- typing `.` in a chain method call auto-indents
- typing `{` or `(` in front of an expression inserts a closing `}` or `)` after the
  expression
- typing `{` in a use item adds a closing `}` in the right place
- typing `>` to complete a return type `->` will insert a whitespace after it
- typing `<` in a path or type position inserts a closing `>` after the path or type.


## rust-analyzer.vfs.extraIncludes {#vfs.extraIncludes}

Default: `[]`

Additional paths to include in the VFS. Generally for code that is
generated or otherwise managed by a build system outside of Cargo,
though Cargo might be the eventual consumer.


## rust-analyzer.workspace.discoverConfig {#workspace.discoverConfig}

Default: `null`

Configure a command that rust-analyzer can invoke to
obtain configuration.

This is an alternative to manually generating
`rust-project.json`: it enables rust-analyzer to generate
rust-project.json on the fly, and regenerate it when
switching or modifying projects.

This is an object with three fields:

* `command`: the shell command to invoke

* `filesToWatch`: which build system-specific files should
be watched to trigger regenerating the configuration

* `progressLabel`: the name of the command, used in
progress indicators in the IDE

Here's an example of a valid configuration:

```json
"rust-analyzer.workspace.discoverConfig": {
    "command": [
        "rust-project",
        "develop-json",
        "{arg}"
    ],
    "progressLabel": "buck2/rust-project",
    "filesToWatch": [
        "BUCK"
    ]
}
```

## Argument Substitutions

If `command` includes the argument `{arg}`, that argument will be substituted
with the JSON-serialized form of the following enum:

```norun
#[derive(PartialEq, Clone, Debug, Serialize)]
#[serde(rename_all = "camelCase")]
pub enum DiscoverArgument {
   Path(AbsPathBuf),
   Buildfile(AbsPathBuf),
}
```

rust-analyzer will use the path invocation to find and
generate a `rust-project.json` and therefore a
workspace. Example:


```norun
rust-project develop-json '{ "path": "myproject/src/main.rs" }'
```

rust-analyzer will use build file invocations to update an
existing workspace. Example:

Or with a build file and the configuration above:

```norun
rust-project develop-json '{ "buildfile": "myproject/BUCK" }'
```

As a reference for implementors, buck2's `rust-project`
will likely be useful:
<https://github.com/facebook/buck2/tree/main/integrations/rust-project>.

## Discover Command Output

**Warning**: This format is provisional and subject to change.

The discover command should output JSON objects, one per
line (JSONL format). These objects should correspond to
this Rust data type:

```norun
#[derive(Debug, Clone, Deserialize, Serialize)]
#[serde(tag = "kind")]
#[serde(rename_all = "snake_case")]
enum DiscoverProjectData {
    Finished { buildfile: Utf8PathBuf, project: ProjectJsonData },
    Error { error: String, source: Option<String> },
    Progress { message: String },
}
```

For example, a progress event:

```json
{"kind":"progress","message":"generating rust-project.json"}
```

A finished event can look like this (expanded and
commented for readability):

```json
{
    // the internally-tagged representation of the enum.
    "kind": "finished",
    // the file used by a non-Cargo build system to define
    // a package or target.
    "buildfile": "rust-analyzer/BUCK",
    // the contents of a rust-project.json, elided for brevity
    "project": {
        "sysroot": "foo",
        "crates": []
    }
}
```

Only the finished event is required, but the other
variants are encouraged to give users more feedback about
progress or errors.


## rust-analyzer.workspace.symbol.search.excludeImports {#workspace.symbol.search.excludeImports}

Default: `false`

Exclude all imports from workspace symbol search.

In addition to regular imports (which are always excluded),
this option removes public imports (better known as re-exports)
and removes imports that rename the imported symbol.


## rust-analyzer.workspace.symbol.search.kind {#workspace.symbol.search.kind}

Default: `"only_types"`

Workspace symbol search kind.


## rust-analyzer.workspace.symbol.search.limit {#workspace.symbol.search.limit}

Default: `128`

Limits the number of items returned from a workspace symbol search (Defaults to 128).
Some clients like vs-code issue new searches on result filtering and don't require all results to be returned in the initial search.
Other clients requires all results upfront and might require a higher limit.


## rust-analyzer.workspace.symbol.search.scope {#workspace.symbol.search.scope}

Default: `"workspace"`

Workspace symbol search scope.
