  • Let's write an Emacs treesitter major mode
    7 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 14 Sep 2023
    BTW:

    While Emacs 29.1 comes with "treesitter" built-in, you still need to manually build and install any treesitter language plugin implementing the actual language specific parser. This can be fiddly and frustrating doing it yourself.

    I had a quick success with using this convenience script: https://github.com/casouri/tree-sitter-module/. It provides fully-automated builds for the most popular languages (including typescript, c and c++).

    This is how it works for "typescript":

    1. Clone the repository: https://github.com/casouri/tree-sitter-module/

    2. Install "build-essentials" (providing a c/c++ compiler if you're on Linux).

    3. run "./build typescript" from within the repo

    4. Copy the resulting shared library from "dist/libtree-sitter-typescript.so" into your "~/.emacs.d/tree-sitter/".

    5. Open a random typescript file and try "M-x typescript-ts-mode" which should not give you any error but instead nice syntax highlighting.

    You might find there is a treesitter plugin for your language available and it is even supported by "tree-sitter-module" but there is still no major mode, yet. Happened to me for Perl 5.

  • Mastering Emacs: What's new in Emacs 29.1

    I will look into building my own tree sitter grammars using https://github.com/casouri/tree-sitter-module as you suggest.

    Some time ago I followed this guide https://vxlabs.com/2022/06/12/typescript-development-with-em...

    Third, I'm using tsitter in emacs29. I have https://github.com/casouri/tree-sitter-module installed as a sub-module in ~/.config/emacs, and have a symlink called tree-sitter to ./tree-sitter-module/dist (built by ./tree-sitter-module/batch.sh) . I'm mentioning the tsitter config here since I'm using python-ts-mode which is tree-sitter aware.
