Manages code intelligence through the Language Server Protocol, based upon the lsp4j library.

scijava-code-lsp provides a LanguageServerService, allowing callers to find and launch lsp4j LanguageServer objects for a given programming language. Once created, these LanguageServer objects can be passed to any downstream application that knows how to use such an object.

SciJava Scripts cannot simply be handed off to a LanguageServer for tasks like auto-completion: SciJava Script parameters, as well as Appose-Python environment information (and maybe other things in the future) must be converted to a representation that a LanguageServer can understand. To that end, scijava-code-lsp offers the ScriptSession class, for synchronizing a SciJava script with a LanguageServer as the script is edited: clients only ever deal with the script's own text and offsets, and servers only ever see plain code of their language.
