   1# Configuring Zed
   2
   3Zed is designed to be configured: we want to fit your workflow and preferences exactly. We provide default settings that are designed to be a comfortable starting point for as many people as possible, but we hope you will enjoy tweaking it to make it feel incredible.
   4
   5In addition to the settings described here, you may also want to change your [theme](./themes.md), configure your [key bindings](./key-bindings.md), set up [tasks](./tasks.md) or install [extensions](https://github.com/zed-industries/extensions).
   6
   7## Settings Editor
   8
   9You can browse through many of the supported settings via the Settings Editor, which can be opened with the {#kb zed::OpenSettings} keybinding, or through the `zed: open settings` action in the command palette. Through it, you can customize your local, user settings as well as project settings.
  10
  11> Note that not all settings that Zed supports are available through the Settings Editor yet.
  12> Some more intricate ones, such as language formatters, can only be changed through the JSON settings file {#kb zed::OpenSettingsFile}.
  13
  14## User Settings File
  15
  16<!--
  17TBD: Settings files. Rewrite with "remote settings" in mind (e.g. `local settings` on the remote host).
  18Consider renaming `zed: Open Local Settings` to `zed: Open Project Settings`.
  19
  20TBD: Add settings documentation about how settings are merged as overlays. E.g. project>local>default. Note how settings that are maps are merged, but settings that are arrays are replaced and must include the defaults.
  21-->
  22
  23Your settings JSON file can be opened with {#kb zed::OpenSettingsFile}.
  24By default it is located at `~/.config/zed/settings.json`, though if you have `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` in your environment on Linux it will be at `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/zed/settings.json` instead.
  25
  26Whatever you have added to your user settings file gets merged with any local configuration inside your projects.
  27
  28### Default Settings
  29
  30In the Settings Editor, the values you see set are the default ones.
  31You can also verify them in JSON by running {#action zed::OpenDefaultSettings} from the command palette.
  32
  33Extensions that provide language servers may also provide default settings for those language servers.
  34
  35## Project Settings File
  36
  37Similarly to user files, you can open your project settings file by running {#action zed::OpenProjectSettings} from the command palette.
  38This will create a `.zed` directory containing`.zed/settings.json`.
  39
  40Although most projects will only need one settings file at the root, you can add more local settings files for subdirectories as needed.
  41Not all settings can be set in local files, just those that impact the behavior of the editor and language tooling.
  42For example you can set `tab_size`, `formatter` etc. but not `theme`, `vim_mode` and similar.
  43
  44The syntax for configuration files is a super-set of JSON that allows `//` comments.
  45
  46## Per-release Channel Overrides
  47
  48Zed reads the same `settings.json` across all release channels (Stable, Preview or Nightly).
  49However, you can scope overrides to a specific channel by adding top-level `stable`, `preview`, `nightly` or `dev` objects.
  50They are merged into the base configuration with settings from these keys taking precedence upon launching the specified build. For example:
  51
  52```json [settings]
  53{
  54  "theme": "sunset",
  55  "vim_mode": false,
  56  "nightly": {
  57    "theme": "cave-light",
  58    "vim_mode": true
  59  },
  60  "preview": {
  61    "theme": "zed-dark"
  62  }
  63}
  64```
  65
  66With this configuration, Stable keeps all base preferences, Preview switches to `zed-dark`, and Nightly enables Vim mode with a different theme.
  67
  68Changing settings in the Settings Editorwill always apply the change across all channels.

1556  "cursor_position_button": true,
1557  "line_endings_button": false
1558},
1559```
1560
1561There is an experimental setting that completely hides the status bar. This causes major usability problems (you will be unable to use many of Zed's features), but is provided for those who value screen real-estate above all else.
1562
1563```json
1564"status_bar": {
1565  "experimental.show": false
1566}
1567```
1568
1569## LSP
1570
1571- Description: Configuration for language servers.
1572- Setting: `lsp`
1573- Default: `null`
1574
1575**Options**
1576
1577The following settings can be overridden for specific language servers:
1578
1579- `initialization_options`
1580- `settings`
1581
1582To override configuration for a language server, add an entry for that language server's name to the `lsp` value.
1583
1584Some options are passed via `initialization_options` to the language server. These are for options which must be specified at language server startup and when changed will require restarting the language server.
1585
1586For example to pass the `check` option to `rust-analyzer`, use the following configuration:
1587
1588```json [settings]
1589"lsp": {
1590  "rust-analyzer": {
1591    "initialization_options": {
1592      "check": {
1593        "command": "clippy" // rust-analyzer.check.command (default: "check")
1594      }
1595    }
1596  }
1597}
1598```
1599
1600While other options may be changed at a runtime and should be placed under `settings`:
1601
1602```json [settings]
1603"lsp": {
1604  "yaml-language-server": {
1605    "settings": {
1606      "yaml": {
1607        "keyOrdering": true // Enforces alphabetical ordering of keys in maps
1608      }
1609    }
1610  }
1611}
1612```
1613
1614## Global LSP Settings

1617- Setting: `global_lsp_settings`
1618- Default:
1619
1620```json [settings]
1621{
1622  "global_lsp_settings": {
1623    "button": true
1624  }
1625}
1626```
1627
1628**Options**
1629
1630- `button`: Whether to show the LSP status button in the status bar
1631
1632## LSP Highlight Debounce
1633
1634- Description: The debounce delay in milliseconds before querying highlights from the language server based on the current cursor location.
1635- Setting: `lsp_highlight_debounce`
1636- Default: `75`
1637
1638**Options**
1639
1640`integer` values representing milliseconds
1641
1642## Features
1643
1644- Description: Features that can be globally enabled or disabled
1645- Setting: `features`
1646- Default:
1647
1648```json [settings]
1649{
1650  "features": {
1651    "edit_prediction_provider": "zed"
1652  }
1653}
1654```
1655
1656### Edit Prediction Provider
1657
1658- Description: Which edit prediction provider to use
1659- Setting: `edit_prediction_provider`
1660- Default: `"zed"`
1661
1662**Options**
1663
16641. Use Zeta as the edit prediction provider:
1665
1666```json [settings]
1667{
1668  "features": {
1669    "edit_prediction_provider": "zed"
1670  }
1671}
1672```
1673
16742. Use Copilot as the edit prediction provider:
1675
1676```json [settings]
1677{
1678  "features": {
1679    "edit_prediction_provider": "copilot"
1680  }
1681}
1682```
1683
16843. Use Supermaven as the edit prediction provider:
1685
1686```json [settings]
1687{
1688  "features": {
1689    "edit_prediction_provider": "supermaven"
1690  }
1691}
1692```
1693
16944. Turn off edit predictions across all providers
1695
1696```json [settings]
1697{
1698  "features": {
1699    "edit_prediction_provider": "none"
1700  }
1701}
1702```
1703
1704## Format On Save
1705
1706- Description: Whether or not to perform a buffer format before saving.
1707- Setting: `format_on_save`
1708- Default: `on`
1709
1710**Options**
1711
17121. `on`, enables format on save obeying `formatter` setting:
1713
1714```json [settings]
1715{
1716  "format_on_save": "on"
1717}
1718```
1719
17202. `off`, disables format on save:
1721
1722```json [settings]
1723{
1724  "format_on_save": "off"
1725}
1726```
1727
1728## Formatter
1729
1730- Description: How to perform a buffer format.
1731- Setting: `formatter`
1732- Default: `auto`
1733
1734**Options**
1735
17361. To use the current language server, use `"language_server"`:
1737
1738```json [settings]
1739{
1740  "formatter": "language_server"
1741}
1742```
1743
17442. Or to use an external command, use `"external"`. Specify the name of the formatting program to run, and an array of arguments to pass to the program. The buffer's text will be passed to the program on stdin, and the formatted output should be written to stdout. For example, the following command would strip trailing spaces using [`sed(1)`](https://linux.die.net/man/1/sed):
1745
1746```json [settings]
1747{
1748  "formatter": {
1749    "external": {
1750      "command": "sed",
1751      "arguments": ["-e", "s/ *$//"]
1752    }
1753  }
1754}
1755```
1756
17573. External formatters may optionally include a `{buffer_path}` placeholder which at runtime will include the path of the buffer being formatted. Formatters operate by receiving file content via standard input, reformatting it and then outputting it to standard output and so normally don't know the filename of what they are formatting. Tools like Prettier support receiving the file path via a command line argument which can then used to impact formatting decisions.
1758
1759WARNING: `{buffer_path}` should not be used to direct your formatter to read from a filename. Your formatter should only read from standard input and should not read or write files directly.
1760
1761```json [settings]
1762  "formatter": {
1763    "external": {
1764      "command": "prettier",
1765      "arguments": ["--stdin-filepath", "{buffer_path}"]
1766    }
1767  }
1768```
1769
17704. Or to use code actions provided by the connected language servers, use `"code_actions"`:
1771
1772```json [settings]
1773{
1774  "formatter": [
1775    // Use ESLint's --fix:
1776    { "code_action": "source.fixAll.eslint" },
1777    // Organize imports on save:
1778    { "code_action": "source.organizeImports" }
1779  ]
1780}
1781```
1782
17835. Or to use multiple formatters consecutively, use an array of formatters:
1784
1785```json [settings]
1786{
1787  "formatter": [
1788    { "language_server": { "name": "rust-analyzer" } },
1789    {
1790      "external": {
1791        "command": "sed",
1792        "arguments": ["-e", "s/ *$//"]
1793      }
1794    }
1795  ]
1796}
1797```
1798
1799Here `rust-analyzer` will be used first to format the code, followed by a call of sed.
1800If any of the formatters fails, the subsequent ones will still be executed.
1801
1802## Auto close
1803
1804- Description: Whether to automatically add matching closing characters when typing opening parenthesis, bracket, brace, single or double quote characters.
1805- Setting: `use_autoclose`
1806- Default: `true`
1807
1808**Options**
1809
1810`boolean` values
1811
1812## Always Treat Brackets As Autoclosed
1813
1814- Description: Controls how the editor handles the autoclosed characters.
1815- Setting: `always_treat_brackets_as_autoclosed`
1816- Default: `false`
1817
1818**Options**
1819
1820`boolean` values
1821
1822**Example**
1823
1824If the setting is set to `true`:
1825
18261. Enter in the editor: `)))`
18272. Move the cursor to the start: `^)))`
18283. Enter again: `)))`
1829
1830The result is still `)))` and not `))))))`, which is what it would be by default.
1831
1832## File Scan Exclusions
1833
1834- Setting: `file_scan_exclusions`
1835- Description: Files or globs of files that will be excluded by Zed entirely. They will be skipped during file scans, file searches, and not be displayed in the project file tree. Overrides `file_scan_inclusions`.
1836- Default:
1837
1838```json [settings]
1839"file_scan_exclusions": [
1840  "**/.git",
1841  "**/.svn",
1842  "**/.hg",
1843  "**/.jj",
1844  "**/CVS",
1845  "**/.DS_Store",
1846  "**/Thumbs.db",
1847  "**/.classpath",
1848  "**/.settings"
1849],
1850```
1851
1852Note, specifying `file_scan_exclusions` in settings.json will override the defaults (shown above). If you are looking to exclude additional items you will need to include all the default values in your settings.
1853
1854## File Scan Inclusions
1855
1856- Setting: `file_scan_inclusions`
1857- Description: Files or globs of files that will be included by Zed, even when ignored by git. This is useful for files that are not tracked by git, but are still important to your project. Note that globs that are overly broad can slow down Zed's file scanning. `file_scan_exclusions` takes precedence over these inclusions.
1858- Default:
1859
1860```json [settings]
1861"file_scan_inclusions": [".env*"],
1862```
1863
1864## File Types
1865
1866- Setting: `file_types`
1867- Description: Configure how Zed selects a language for a file based on its filename or extension. Supports glob entries.
1868- Default:

1871"file_types": {
1872  "JSONC": ["**/.zed/**/*.json", "**/zed/**/*.json", "**/Zed/**/*.json", "**/.vscode/**/*.json"],
1873  "Shell Script": [".env.*"]
1874}
1875```
1876
1877**Examples**
1878
1879To interpret all `.c` files as C++, files called `MyLockFile` as TOML and files starting with `Dockerfile` as Dockerfile:
1880
1881```json [settings]
1882{
1883  "file_types": {
1884    "C++": ["c"],
1885    "TOML": ["MyLockFile"],
1886    "Dockerfile": ["Dockerfile*"]
1887  }
1888}
1889```
1890
1891## Diagnostics

2759## Network Proxy
2760
2761- Description: Configure a network proxy for Zed.
2762- Setting: `proxy`
2763- Default: `null`
2764
2765**Options**
2766
2767The proxy setting must contain a URL to the proxy.
2768
2769The following URI schemes are supported:
2770
2771- `http`
2772- `https`
2773- `socks4` - SOCKS4 proxy with local DNS
2774- `socks4a` - SOCKS4 proxy with remote DNS
2775- `socks5` - SOCKS5 proxy with local DNS
2776- `socks5h` - SOCKS5 proxy with remote DNS
2777
2778`http` will be used when no scheme is specified.
2779
2780By default no proxy will be used, or Zed will attempt to retrieve proxy settings from environment variables, such as `http_proxy`, `HTTP_PROXY`, `https_proxy`, `HTTPS_PROXY`, `all_proxy`, `ALL_PROXY`, `no_proxy` and `NO_PROXY`.
2781
2782For example, to set an `http` proxy, add the following to your settings:
2783
2784```json [settings]
2785{
2786  "proxy": "http://127.0.0.1:10809"
2787}
2788```
2789
2790Or to set a `socks5` proxy:
2791
2792```json [settings]
2793{
2794  "proxy": "socks5h://localhost:10808"
2795}
2796```
2797
2798If you wish to exclude certain hosts from using the proxy, set the `NO_PROXY` environment variable. This accepts a comma-separated list of hostnames, host suffixes, IPv4/IPv6 addresses or blocks that should not use the proxy. For example if your environment included `NO_PROXY="google.com, 192.168.1.0/24"` all hosts in `192.168.1.*`, `google.com` and `*.google.com` would bypass the proxy. See [reqwest NoProxy docs](https://docs.rs/reqwest/latest/reqwest/struct.NoProxy.html#method.from_string) for more.
