tree-sitter-typescript VS tree-sitter-module

I believe goto_next_test requires support from the tree-sitter parser, specifically tree-sitter-javascript in the case of JS and tree-sitter-typescript in the case of TS.

If you need to do efficient AST operations, have you considered treesitter? There is a typescript grammar available https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-typescript

I am curious though, why did you write your own indentation tool? (It works super well btw, amazing work) I thought tree-sitter supported tsx (and found repos like this) so just wondering if you tried those and they didn't work so you wrote your own.

Please have a look at it - https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-typescript/issues/177

You can see a much more in-depth version at https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-typescript or https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-rust

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.

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...

Also this https://github.com/casouri/tree-sitter-module/issues/13

I've downloaded and generated the libraries for the various languages from: https://github.com/casouri/tree-sitter-module

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.

I'd recommend checking out https://github.com/casouri/tree-sitter-module for building the native treesit libraries that are required to enable the various languages.

The author of the built-in tree-sitter implementation has published this repo with a build script to help you build various grammars: https://github.com/casouri/tree-sitter-module
