Hello!
I don't know if there's any code around integrating atom and ide-backend.
The new work-in-progress School of Haskell implementation directly uses
ide-backend-client. It turned out to not be very hard to get it working
with GHCJS and using websockets.
In particular, the ide-backend-common[1] package builds with GHCJS! This
is the package which defines the protocol types and serialization instances.
I needed to modify ide-backend-client a bit to allow me to use it with
websockets. Since atom is local, maybe ide-backend-client's default of
using stdin / stdout is fine. However, it might be helpful that my
ide-backend-client branch[2] makes it into a library and allows the caller
to specify actions for sending / receiving messages. The current state of
that branch also requires a special branch of ide-backend[3].
I'm glad you're interested in this! I'm happy to help out with it!

Hello, when the open sourcing of IDE-backend was announced ( https://www.fpcomplete.com/blog/2015/03/announce-ide-backend), one thing mentioned was Atom support, and indeed the home page for the client ( https://github.com/chrisdone/ide-backend-client) mentions Atom. But is there a project out there I can use that brings the two together? The ide-haskell (https://atom.io/packages/ide-haskell) Atom plugin still relies on ghc-mod as far as I can tell.
I saw edsko tutorial on writing Atom plugin in Haskell ( http://edsko.net/2015/02/14/atom-haskell/), so it seem we are tentalizingly close to have Atom + Haskell implemented in Haskell, and I'd like to give it a go if there's anything available out there (and maybe help if needed).
Thanks!
JP
