Description

opened on Apr 23, 2026

Describe the bug
After upgrading to 0.6.0 LSP features like go to definition, lookup documentation stoped working for Elixir standard library. It works fine for other parts of the code. It was working fine with earlier version of Dexter.

To reproduce
Configure Dexter in Neovim using vim.lsp.

Expected behavior
Features mentioned above should work for standard Elixir library

Environment

  • Dexter version (dexter --version): 0.6.0
  • Elixir version (elixir --version): 1.20.0-rc.4
  • Editor and version: NVIM 0.12.1
  • OS: MacOS 26.4.1

Did you try dexter init --force?
Yes

    Hi @gsarwate, thanks for the issue! Could you provide a code sample that replicates what you're describing? I am unable to replicate the issue. Could you verify in your logs that Dexter reports finding your Elixir stdlib? I think that might be the issue.

    Example code:

    I tried go to definition from mix.exs file's defmodule and other macros. The mix.exs file is standard one and this particular file is part of tidewave-phoenix project: https://github.com/tidewave-ai/tidewave_phoenix/blob/main/mix.exs

    This worked fine with same Elixir version with previous version (0.5.x) of Dexter.

    My Neovim LSP config:

        cmd = { 'dexter', 'lsp' },
    root_markers = { '.dexter/dexter.db', '.dexter.db', '.git', 'mix.exs' },
    filetypes = { 'elixir', 'eelixir', 'heex' },
    init_options = {
        followDelegates = true, -- jump through defdelegate to the target function
        -- stdlibPath = "",      -- override Elixir stdlib path (auto-detected)
        -- debug = false,        -- verbose logging to stderr (view with :LspLog)
    },

    Thanks @gsarwate, I'm still unable to replicate on my side in the Tidewave codebase. For example, go-to-definition on use Mix.Project in the mix.exs file works fine for me.

    Can you enable debug in your config and send me the logs after attempting go-to-definition again?

    @gsarwate I don't see any attempt at a go-to-definition in those logs. Could you attempt a few go-to-definitions in the problem areas and send the debug logs?

    @gsarwate you'll need to be more specific with exactly what code is causing you problems, what you're hovering over, and what you expect to happen. A video would be helpful. I'm also running v0.6.0 on Tidewave Phoenix and am not having any issues doing go-to-definition and hover to Elixir standard library modules/functions.

    Here are the details of what works and what does not in the above mentioned mix.exs file.

    When it does not work, I get message "No locations found"

    Go to definition did not work:

    • defmodule
    • use
    • def
    • @docs/0

    Go to definition works:

    • Mix.env()
    • deps()
    • package()
    • Tidewave.Application
    • raise

    Thank you @gsarwate. Now I see what you're talking about. I did not even consider that people would want to be doing go-to-definition on things like defmodule, so I never tested for it. Our previous support for some of these forms was more a consequence of how we parsed things rather than an intentional decision. However, you're right that there is indeed a regression here. This should be a relatively simple fix, so I'll see about adding this back.
