TIL: you will knuckle under to vscode...

are we just assuming that everyone runs vscode these days?

mumble grumble, the standalone language server for ansible has been archived and integrated into the vscode extension.

• ref: ansible/ansible-language-server: 🚧 Ansible Language Server codebase is now included in vscode-ansible repository - that’s a pretty horrid but informative web page title.
• the new home: ansible/vscode-ansible: vscode/vscodium extension for providing Ansible auto-completion and integrating quality assurance tools like ansible-lint, ansible syntax check, yamllint, molecule and ansible-test. - which to be fair includes a whole hairball of other useful stuff, which fits in with the vscode kitchen sink approach to things.

this migration seems to be confirmed by the need to install the necessary bits a la npm per the nvim-lspconfig archive.

i suppose i should be grateful that it’s still accessible via this interface.
