It is not possible to **not** use the bundled server

Which OS are you using?

Linux

Expected Behaviour

I can specify and run an arbitrary location for the LSP binary.

Actual Behaviour

Only the bundled with the addon binary is used

Reproduction steps

Use this VScode plugin

Additional Notes

On NixOS binaries dowloaded from the web usually do not work, as their interpreter is not at the usual location that usually is assumed.

A common workaround we usually use is to use a softlink that replaces the binary to something we built with nix or set another location in VScode (we actually prefer the latter).

In a perfect world, the option can be either absolute, relative or just the binary for a lookup in the PATH.

(PS: the first version does also not work for this plugin, as then it follows the symlink and tries to write into a read only location, so I had to hardcopy the proper binary)

Log

[Error - 8:10:44 AM] Lua client: couldn't create connection to server.
Launching server using command /home/nobbz/.vscode/extensions/sumneko.lua-3.6.26-linux-x64/server/bin/lua-language-server failed. Error: spawn /home/nobbz/.vscode/extensions/sumneko.lua-3.6.26-linux-x64/server/bin/lua-language-server ENOENT

Beginne damit, die in diesem Issue beschriebene Konfiguration für den Serverstart und die gebündelte Binärdatei des VS Code-Plugins zu lokalisieren. Füge eine Einstellung hinzu, die für den Lua language server einen absoluten Pfad, einen relativen Pfad oder einen über PATH aufgelösten Befehl akzeptiert, und überprüfe anschließend, dass die konfigurierte ausführbare Datei anstelle der gebündelten Binärdatei gestartet wird, auch unter NixOS.
