Provides O(1) language catalog lookups for %Minga.Language{} definitions registered by config and extension-owned language packs.
Backed by ETS with read_concurrency: true for lock-free reads on every keystroke, render frame, and comment toggle. The GenServer exists only to own the ETS table lifecycle. All reads go directly to ETS.
Lookup functions
get/1— lookup by language name atom (e.g.,:elixir)for_extension/1— lookup by file extension string (e.g.,"ex")for_filename/1— lookup by exact filename (e.g.,"Makefile")for_shebang/1— lookup by shebang interpreter (e.g.,"python3")
Runtime registration
Extensions register languages via register/2 with {:extension, name} as the source. Reload and unload paths remove the whole %Minga.Language{} record, so its names, extensions, filenames, shebangs, devicons, grammar metadata, formatter, and LSP defaults disappear together.
Summary
Functions
Returns all registered language definitions.
Returns a specification to start this module under a supervisor.
Returns the language definition for a file extension, or nil.
Returns the language definition for an exact filename, or nil.
Returns the language definition for a shebang interpreter, or nil.
Returns the language definition for a name atom, or nil if unknown.
Registers a config-owned language at runtime.
Registers a language with an explicit source.
Returns the contribution source for a registry key, or nil if the key is unknown.
Starts the language registry.
Returns all language names that have definitions.
Removes every language and lookup index contributed by a source.
Types
@type contribution_source() :: :builtin | :config | {:extension, atom()}
Source that contributed registry entries.
@type register_error() :: {:duplicate_key, term(), contribution_source(), contribution_source()}
Functions
@spec all() :: [Minga.Language.t()]
Returns all registered language definitions.
Returns a specification to start this module under a supervisor.
See Supervisor.
@spec for_extension(String.t()) :: Minga.Language.t() | nil
Returns the language definition for a file extension, or nil.
The extension should not include the leading dot and is matched case-insensitively.
Examples
iex> lang = Minga.Language.Registry.for_extension("ex")
iex> lang.name
:elixir@spec for_filename(String.t()) :: Minga.Language.t() | nil
Returns the language definition for an exact filename, or nil.
Examples
iex> lang = Minga.Language.Registry.for_filename("Makefile")
iex> lang.name
:make@spec for_shebang(String.t()) :: Minga.Language.t() | nil
Returns the language definition for a shebang interpreter, or nil.
Examples
iex> lang = Minga.Language.Registry.for_shebang("python3")
iex> lang.name
:python@spec get(atom()) :: Minga.Language.t() | nil
Returns the language definition for a name atom, or nil if unknown.
Examples
iex> lang = Minga.Language.Registry.get(:elixir)
iex> lang.label
"Elixir"
iex> Minga.Language.Registry.get(:unknown_language)
nil@spec register(Minga.Language.t()) :: :ok | {:error, register_error()}
Registers a config-owned language at runtime.
Rebuilds the extension, filename, and shebang index entries and records source ownership so reloads and extension unloads can remove contributed data as a group.
@spec register(Minga.Language.t(), contribution_source()) :: :ok | {:error, register_error()}
Registers a language with an explicit source.
@spec source_for(term()) :: contribution_source() | nil
Returns the contribution source for a registry key, or nil if the key is unknown.
@spec start_link(keyword()) :: GenServer.on_start()
Starts the language registry.
@spec supported_names() :: [atom()]
Returns all language names that have definitions.
@spec unregister_source(contribution_source()) :: :ok
Removes every language and lookup index contributed by a source.
