in thread RFC: LSP for Perl

It seems already here: Perl::LanguageServer.

Note it uses Compiler::Lexer, not PPI, so it is definitely quite an early version to test the waters.

    Thanks, Compiler::Lexer sounds interesting, though there is practically no documentation what it does and how.

    update

    a quick look into the code reveals that it's similar to PPI in trying to parse Perl code. :(

    IMHO running perl -c and analyzing the resulting op-tree would be safer...
