Liquidsoap for Nova

Liquidsoap language support for Panic's Nova editor, ported from the official vscode-liquidsoap extension maintained by Savonet.

This extension is not maintained by Savonet.

Features

• Syntax highlighting
• Autocomplete (functions, keywords, types, encoders, preprocessor directives)
• Syntax validation (unclosed blocks, mismatched brackets, unclosed strings)
• Code formatting via prettier + liquidsoap-prettier (Opt+Shift+F or on save)
• Automatic indentation
• Code folding

Installation

The Nova way

Install this from the Extension library.

The easy way

Double-click the extension.

The hard way

Symlink the extension bundle into Nova's extensions directory:

ln -s /path/to/Liquidsoap.novaextension \
  ~/Library/Application\ Support/Nova/Extensions/Liquidsoap.novaextension

Restart Nova. Any .liq file will activate the extension.

Formatting requires a working npx (Node.js). The extension will fetch the latest prettier and liquidsoap-prettier automatically the first time you format — no manual npm install is required. Subsequent formats use npx's local cache.

If you'd rather use your own prettier install (e.g. to pin a specific version, or to work offline), set Settings → Extensions → Liquidsoap → Path to prettier executable to your prettier binary and make sure liquidsoap-prettier is resolvable from your workspace.
