Introduction

Diplomat is a bundle of tools used to ease the development and debugging of SystemVerilog designs. While its aim is to be as complete and useful as possible in a seamless and straightforward way, it cannot be guaranteed to work without bugs or issues.

If you found bugs, usability problems or missing features, please drop a word by raising an issue against the element that seems to cause an issue:

• The VSCode extension is reponsible for the GUI and everything not related to code analysis proper.

• The Language server is reponsible for providing informations about the design to the extension.

VS Code extension

The Diplomat VS Code extension (Diplomat Client, sometimes refered as Diplomat Host) is the provided client for interfacing with Diplomat Server.

It features:

• Workspace analysis using the slang open source SystemVerilog compiler.

• Error checking and elaboration-level linting

• Scope-aware autocompletion suggestions

• Jump to definition/reference across files

• Syntax coloration

• Rename symbol

• Assisted instanciation of any module found in the workspace

Language server

The Diplomat language server is a full C++ implementation of the Language Server Protocol (LSP) targetting SystemVerilog. It relies on slang to perform code analysis and elaboration.
