[Feature] rocks typecheck

[vhyrro]

Pondering whether this should be a builtin part of rocks check...

This command would first ensure that lua-language-server is installed, then install llscheck and run that on the codebase.

I think it would make sense to add flags for enabling or disabling luacheck and llscheck.
lua-language-server currently doesn't exist as a luarocks package, but perhaps we could open a PR to get it packaged?

I've had some issues with llscheck. Perhaps it would be better to implement the wrapper in rust, which would also make it easier to pin a compatible lua-language-server version?

[vhyrro]

There are problems with packaging lua-ls unfortunately :(

I've bent llscheck pretty far and haven't had it snap on me yet. Anything specific? I'd be happy to implement a wrapper either way.

About the rust rewrite of lua-ls, it seems to be stale (last update was 2 months ago). Maybe one day we'll be able to vendor it with rocks just like we did stylua :p

I wouldn't say 2 months is stale.
They might just be taking a break.

What if we package bee.lua for luarocks? 😉

I've bent llscheck pretty far and haven't had it snap on me yet. Anything specific? I'd be happy to implement a wrapper either way.

I tried to get it to work with lua-typecheck-action and it just won't.

If we could figure out how to get bee.lua on luarocks then that would be pretty great 🗣️ 🔥
