Missing package.json in language server implementation

[kaushalvivek]

Facing issues in setting up the language server implementation on OS X. Following the steps mentioned in the CONTRIBUTING.md guide here.

On executing dotnet build, I am getting the following error:

Couldn't find 'project.json' in current directory

Is there something I am missing?

EDIT : executing this from python-language-server/src/LanguageServer/Impl

You need to build solution, so dotnet build from python-language-server/src.

@MikhailArkhipov , thanks for your reply, but there isn't a package.json file in python-langugage-server/src either, and hence, dotnet build, as you'd expect, doesn't work.

[MikhailArkhipov]

dotnet build recognizes VS solutions.

[MikhailArkhipov]

Usually we build from VS during development. Automated pipeline does dotnet publish src/LanguageServer/Impl/Microsoft.Python.LanguageServer.csproj

Tried on Mac, result is identical

Figured it out, thanks for your help @MikhailArkhipov !
