<title>Analysis Server API Specification</title>

<body>
<h1>Analysis Server API Specification</h1>
<h1 style="color:#999999">Version
<version>1.19.0</version>
</h1>
<p>
This document contains a specification of the API provided by the
analysis server. The API in this document is currently under
development. Changes to the API will be accompanied by an update to the
protocol version number according to the principles of semantic
versioning (<a href="http://semver.org/">semver.org</a>).
</p>
<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>
The analysis server API is a bi-directional client-server
API. The API is independent of the transport mechanism used, but
is heavily influenced by a model in which sockets or character
streams are used to transport JSON-RPC encoded information.
</p>
<h3>Transport Mechanism</h3>
<p>
The characters passed to the server are expected to be encoded
using UTF-8.
</p>
<p>
When character streams are used as the transport, messages are
delineated by newlines. This means, in particular, that the JSON
encoding process must not introduce newlines within a
message. Note however that newlines are used in this document
for readability.
</p>
<p>
It is the client's responsibility to read output from the server to
avoid its blocking.
</p>
<p>
To ease interoperability with Lisp-based clients (which may not
be able to easily distinguish between empty lists, empty maps,
and null), client-to-server communication is allowed to replace
any instance of "<tt>{}</tt>" or "<tt>[]</tt>" with null. The
server will always properly represent empty lists as
"<tt>[]</tt>" and empty maps as "<tt>{}</tt>".
</p>
<h3>Communication Structure</h3>
<p>
Clients can make a request of the server and the server will
provide a response for each request that it receives. While many
of the requests that can be made by a client are informational
in nature, we have chosen to always return a response so that
clients can know whether the request was received and was
correct.
</p>
<p>
There is no guarantee concerning the order in which responses
will be returned, but there is a guarantee that the server will
process requests in the order in which they are sent as long as
the transport mechanism also makes this guarantee. Responses can
be returned in an order that is different from the order in
which the requests were received because some requests take
longer to process than others.
</p>
<p>
Every request is required to have two fields and may have two
additional optional fields. The first required field is the ‘id’
field, which is only used by the server to associate a response
with the request that generated the response. The second
required field is the ‘method’ field, which is used to determine
what the server is being requested to do. One optional field is
the ‘params’ field, whose structure is dependent on the method
being requested. The structure of this field is described with
each request for which it is required. The other optional field
is the 'clientRequestTime' field, which is a number indicating
the time at which the client made the request (milliseconds
since epoch). Providing clientRequestTime helps us track
how responsive analysis server is to client requests
and better address any issues that occur.
</p>
<p>
Every response has up to three fields. The first field is the
‘id’ field, which is always present and whose value is the
identifier that was passed to the request that generated the
response. The second field is the ‘error’ field, which is only
present if an error was encountered while processing the
request. The third field is the ‘result’ field, whose structure
is dependent on the method being responded to, and is described
with each request that will produce it.
</p>
<p>
The server can also communicate to the clients by sending a
notification. The purpose of these notifications is to provide
information to clients as it becomes available rather than to
require that clients poll for it. Unless explicitly stated, all
notifications are designed to return the complete information
available at the time the notification is sent; clients are not
required to update previously communicated
results. Consequently, the server can and should return partial
results before all results are available. For example, the
syntactic errors for a file can be returned as soon as the
syntactic analysis is complete, and both syntactic and semantic
errors can be returned together at a later time.
</p>
<p>
Each notification has two fields. The first field is the ‘event’
field, which identifies the kind of notification. The second
field is the ‘params’ field, whose structure is dependent on the
kind of notification being sent. The structure of this field is
described with each notification.
</p>
<p>
In order to be backward compatible, clients should ignore fields that were
not specified in the version of the API on which they were based. Clients
should also use the server.getVersion request to test that the version of
the server supports an API before using it.
</p>
<h3>Eventual Consistency</h3>
<p>
The analysis server satisfies requests under the principle of
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eventual_consistency">eventual
consistency</a>.
That is, in some cases it may return responses with the currently available
results while it's catching up with unprocessed changes.
</p>
<h3>Domains</h3>
<p>
For convenience, the API is divided into domains. Each domain is specified
in a separate section below. The specifications of the API’s refer to data
structures beyond the standard JSON primitives. These data structures are
documented in the section titled <a href="#types">Types</a>.

<h3>Command-line Arguments</h3>
<p>
The command-line arguments that can be passed to the server.
</p>
<h4>Options</h4>
<blockquote>
<dl>
<dt>--client-id</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Specifies an identifier associated with the client. Used when
generating error reports.
</p>
<p>
Clients are strongly encouraged to provide this information in
order to improve the quality of information that can be provided
to them.
</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt>--client-version</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Specifies the version of the client that is communicating with
the server. Used when generating error reports.
</p>
<p>
Clients are strongly encouraged to provide this information in
order to improve the quality of information that can be provided
to them.
</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt class="deprecated">--no-error-notification</dt>
<dd>
<p><b>Deprecated:</b> clients should no longer pass this option in</p>
Disable notifications about errors (see analysis.error). If this
flag is not specified then notifications will be sent for all
errors produced for all files in the actual analysis roots.
</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt class="deprecated">--no-index</dt>
<dd>
<p><b>Deprecated:</b> clients should no longer pass this option in</p>
This flag used to disable the server from generating an index, but now
it has no effect.
</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt class="deprecated">--file-read-mode</dt>
<dd>
<p><b>Deprecated:</b> clients should no longer pass this option in</p>
An enumeration of the ways files can be read from disk. Some clients
normalize end of line characters which would make the file offset and
range information incorrect. The default option is <tt>as-is</tt>, but
can also be set to <tt>normalize-eol-always</tt>. The default option
(<tt>as-is</tt>) reads files as they are on disk. The
<tt>normalize-eol-always</tt> option does the following:
<ul>
<li>'\r\n' is converted to '\n';</li>
<li>'\r' by itself is converted to '\n';</li>
<li>this happens regardless of the OS editor is running on.</li>
</ul>

Return the errors associated with the given file. If the
errors for the given file have not yet been computed, or the
most recently computed errors for the given file are out of
date, then the response for this request will be delayed
until they have been computed. If some or all of the errors
for the file cannot be computed, then the subset of the
errors that can be computed will be returned and the
response will contain an error to indicate why the errors
could not be computed. If the content of the file changes after this
request was received but before a response could be sent, then an
error of type <tt>CONTENT_MODIFIED</tt> will be generated.
</p>
<p>
This request is intended to be used by clients that cannot
asynchronously apply updated error information. Clients that
<b>can</b> apply error information as it becomes available
should use the information provided by the 'analysis.errors'
notification.

If a request is made for a file which does not exist, or
which is not currently subject to analysis (e.g. because it
is not associated with any analysis root specified to
analysis.setAnalysisRoots), an error of type

<field name="hovers">
<list>
<ref>HoverInformation</ref>
</list>
<p>
The hover information associated with the
location. The list will be empty if no information
could be determined for the location. The list can
contain multiple items if the file is being analyzed
in multiple contexts in conflicting ways (such as a
part that is included in multiple libraries).
</p>
</field>
</result>
</request>
<request method="getImportedElements" experimental="true">
<p>
Return a description of all of the elements referenced in a given region
of a given file that come from imported libraries.
</p>
<p>
If a request is made for a file that does not exist, or that is not
currently subject to analysis (e.g. because it is not associated with any
analysis root specified via analysis.setAnalysisRoots), an error of type
<tt>GET_IMPORTED_ELEMENTS_INVALID_FILE</tt> will be generated.

</request>
<request method="getLibraryDependencies">
<p>
Return library dependency information for use in client-side indexing
and package URI resolution.

Clients that are only using the libraries field should consider using the
analyzedFiles notification instead.
</p>
<result>
<field name="libraries">

A list of the paths of library elements referenced by
files in existing analysis roots.

package names to source directories for use in client-side
package URI resolution.

</field>
</result>
</request>
<request method="getNavigation">
<p>
Return the navigation information associated with the given region of
the given file. If the navigation information for the given file has
not yet been computed, or the most recently computed navigation
information for the given file is out of date, then the response for
this request will be delayed until it has been computed. If the
content of the file changes after this request was received but before
a response could be sent, then an error of type
<tt>CONTENT_MODIFIED</tt> will be generated.
</p>
<p>
If a navigation region overlaps (but extends either before or after)
the given region of the file it will be included in the result. This
means that it is theoretically possible to get the same navigation
region in response to multiple requests. Clients can avoid this by
always choosing a region that starts at the beginning of a line and
ends at the end of a (possibly different) line in the file.
</p>
<p>
If a request is made for a file which does not exist, or
which is not currently subject to analysis (e.g. because it
is not associated with any analysis root specified to
analysis.setAnalysisRoots), an error of type
<tt>GET_NAVIGATION_INVALID_FILE</tt> will be generated.

<p>
A list of the navigation regions within the requested region of
the file.

</field>
</result>
</request>
<request method="getReachableSources">
<p>
Return the transitive closure of reachable sources for a given file.
</p>
<p>
If a request is made for a file which does not exist, or
which is not currently subject to analysis (e.g. because it
is not associated with any analysis root specified to
analysis.setAnalysisRoots), an error of type
<tt>GET_REACHABLE_SOURCES_INVALID_FILE</tt> will be generated.
</p>
<params>
<field name="file">

The file for which reachable source information is being requested.

<map>
<key>
<ref>String</ref>
</key>
<value>
<list>
<ref>String</ref>
</list>
</value>
</map>
<p>
A mapping from source URIs to directly reachable source URIs. For
example,
a file "foo.dart" that imports "bar.dart" would have the corresponding
mapping
{ "file:///foo.dart" : ["file:///bar.dart"] }. If "bar.dart" has
further imports
(or exports) there will be a mapping from the URI "file:///bar.dart"
to them.
To check if a specific URI is reachable from a given file, clients can
check
for its presence in the resulting key set.
</p>
</field>
</result>
</request>
<request method="reanalyze">
<p>
Force the re-analysis of everything contained in the specified
analysis roots. This will cause all previously computed analysis
results to be discarded and recomputed, and will cause all subscribed
notifications to be re-sent.
</p>
<p>
If no analysis roots are provided, then all current analysis roots
will be re-analyzed. If an empty list of analysis roots is provided,
then nothing will be re-analyzed. If the list contains one or more
paths that are not currently analysis roots, then an error of type
<tt>INVALID_ANALYSIS_ROOT</tt> will be generated.
</p>
<params>
<field name="roots" optional="true">
<list>
<ref>FilePath</ref>
</list>
<p>
A list of the analysis roots that are to be re-analyzed.
</p>
</field>
</params>
</request>
<request method="setAnalysisRoots">
<p>
Sets the root paths used to determine which files to analyze. The set
of files to be analyzed are all of the files in one of the root paths
that are not either explicitly or implicitly excluded. A file is
explicitly excluded if it is in one of the excluded paths. A file is
implicitly excluded if it is in a subdirectory of one of the root
paths where the name of the subdirectory starts with a period (that
is, a hidden directory).
</p>
<p>
Note that this request determines the set of requested
analysis roots. The actual set of analysis roots at any
given time is the intersection of this set with the set of
files and directories actually present on the
filesystem. When the filesystem changes, the actual set of
analysis roots is automatically updated, but the set of
requested analysis roots is unchanged. This means that if
the client sets an analysis root before the root becomes
visible to server in the filesystem, there is no error; once
the server sees the root in the filesystem it will start
analyzing it. Similarly, server will stop analyzing files
that are removed from the file system but they will remain
in the set of requested roots.
</p>
<p>
If an included path represents a file, then server will look
in the directory containing the file for a pubspec.yaml
file. If none is found, then the parents of the directory
will be searched until such a file is found or the root of
the file system is reached. If such a file is found, it will
be used to resolve package: URI’s within the file.
</p>
<params>
<field name="included">
<list>
<ref>FilePath</ref>
</list>
<p>
A list of the files and directories that should be
analyzed.
</p>
</field>
<field name="excluded">
<list>
<ref>FilePath</ref>
</list>
<p>
A list of the files and directories within the
included directories that should not be analyzed.

<field name="packageRoots" optional="true">
<map>
<key>
<ref>FilePath</ref>
</key>
<value>
<ref>FilePath</ref>
</value>
</map>
<p>
A mapping from source directories to package roots
that should override the normal package: URI resolution
mechanism.
</p>
<p>
If a package root is a directory, then
the analyzer will behave as though the associated
source directory in the map contains a special
pubspec.yaml file which resolves any package: URI to the
corresponding path within that package root directory. The
effect is the same as specifying the package root directory as
a "--package_root" parameter to the Dart VM when
executing any Dart file inside the source directory.
</p>
<p>
If a package root is a file, then the analyzer
will behave as though that file is a ".packages" file in the
source directory. The effect is the same as specifying the file
as a "--packages" parameter to the Dart VM when
executing any Dart file inside the source directory.
</p>
<p>
Files in any directories that are not overridden by this
mapping have their package: URI's resolved using the
normal pubspec.yaml mechanism. If this field is absent,
or the empty map is specified, that indicates that the
normal pubspec.yaml mechanism should always be used.
</p>
</field>

<request method="setGeneralSubscriptions">
<p>
Subscribe for general services (that is, services that are not
specific to individual files). All previous subscriptions are replaced
by the given set of services.

It is an error if any of the elements in the list are not valid
services. If there is an error, then the current subscriptions will
remain unchanged.

<request method="setPriorityFiles">
<p>
Set the priority files to the files in the given list. A
priority file is a file that is given priority when
scheduling which analysis work to do first. The list
typically contains those files that are visible to the user
and those for which analysis results will have the biggest
impact on the user experience. The order of the files within
the list is significant: the first file will be given higher
priority than the second, the second higher priority than
the third, and so on.
</p>
<p>
Note that this request determines the set of requested
priority files. The actual set of priority files is the
intersection of the requested set of priority files with the
set of files currently subject to analysis. (See
analysis.setSubscriptions for a description of files that
are subject to analysis.)
</p>
<p>
If a requested priority file is a directory it is ignored,
but remains in the set of requested priority files so that
if it later becomes a file it can be included in the set of
actual priority files.

<request method="setSubscriptions">
<p>
Subscribe for services that are specific to individual files.
All previous subscriptions are replaced by the current set of
subscriptions. If a given service is not included as a key in the map
then no files will be subscribed to the service, exactly as if the
service had been included in the map with an explicit empty list of
files.
</p>
<p>
Note that this request determines the set of requested
subscriptions. The actual set of subscriptions at any given
time is the intersection of this set with the set of files
currently subject to analysis. The files currently subject
to analysis are the set of files contained within an actual
analysis root but not excluded, plus all of the files
transitively reachable from those files via import, export
and part directives. (See analysis.setAnalysisRoots for an
explanation of how the actual analysis roots are
determined.) When the actual analysis roots change, the
actual set of subscriptions is automatically updated, but
the set of requested subscriptions is unchanged.
</p>
<p>
If a requested subscription is a directory it is ignored,
but remains in the set of requested subscriptions so that if
it later becomes a file it can be included in the set of
actual subscriptions.
</p>

It is an error if any of the keys in the map are not valid
services. If there is an error, then the existing
subscriptions will remain unchanged.

<request method="updateContent">
<p>
Update the content of one or more files. Files that were
previously updated but not included in this update remain
unchanged. This effectively represents an overlay of the
filesystem. The files whose content is overridden are
therefore seen by server as being files with the given

<domain name="analytics" experimental="true">
<p>
The analytics domain contains APIs related to reporting analytics.
</p>
<p>
This API allows clients to expose a UI option to enable and disable the
analysis server's reporting of analytics. This value is shared with other
tools and can change outside of this API; because of this, clients should
use the analysis server's flag as the system of record. Clients can choose
to send in additional analytics (see <tt>sendEvent</tt> and
<tt>sendTiming</tt>) if they so choose. Dart command-line tools provide a
disclaimer similar to:
<tt>
Dart SDK tools anonymously report feature usage statistics and basic crash
reports to help improve Dart tools over time. See Google's privacy policy:
https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/.
</tt>
</p>
<p>
The analysis server will send it's own analytics data (for example,
operations performed, operating system type, SDK version). No data (from the
analysis server or from clients) will be sent if analytics is disabled.
</p>
<request method="isEnabled">
<p>Query whether analytics is enabled.</p>
<p>
This flag controls whether the analysis server sends any analytics data to
the cloud. If disabled, the analysis server does not send any analytics
data, and any data sent to it by clients (from <tt>sendEvent</tt> and
<tt>sendTiming</tt>) will be ignored.
</p>
<p>
The value of this flag can be changed by other tools outside of the
analysis server's process. When you query the flag, you get the value of
the flag at a given moment. Clients should not use the value returned to
decide whether or not to send the <tt>sendEvent</tt> and
<tt>sendTiming</tt> requests. Those requests should be used
unconditionally and server will determine whether or not it is appropriate
to forward the information to the cloud at the time each request is
received.

The value of the action field should not include the identity of the

the sending of analytics data is enabled at the time the request is

Note that this request determines the set of requested

explanation of how the actual analysis roots are
determined.) When the actual analysis roots change, the
actual set of subscriptions is automatically updated, but
the set of requested subscriptions is unchanged.
