tree-sitter-brightscript

This is still a work in progress. It is a starting point to build out treesitter grammar for brightscript.

setup

Note this type of setup is only needed until this tree-sitter project can make its way into nvim-treesitter

nvim

requires nvim-treesitter
filetype must be brs

-- ~/.config/nvim/ftdetect/brs.lua
local api = vim.api

api.nvim_command("autocmd BufNewFile,BufFilePost,BufRead *.brs setfiletype brs")

-- ~/.config/nvim/init.lua
local parser_config = require "nvim-treesitter.parsers".get_parser_configs()
parser_config.brightscript = {
  install_info = {
    url = "https://github.com/casonadams/tree-sitter-brightscript.git",
    files = {"src/parser.c"},
    branch = "main",
    generate_requires_npm = false,
    requires_generate_from_grammar = false,
  },
  filetype = "brs",
}

helix

# ~/.config/helix/languages.toml

use-grammars = { only = [ "brightscript" ] }

[[grammar]]
name = "brightscript"
source = { git = "https://github.com/casonadams/tree-sitter-brightscript.git", rev = "main" }

highlights

nvim

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/packer/start/nvim-treesitter/queries/brightscript

# packer
ln -s $(pwd)/queries/highlights.scm ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/packer/start/nvim-treesitter/queries/brightscript

# lazy
ln -sf $(pwd)/highlights.scm ~/.local/share/nvim/lazy/nvim-treesitter/queries/brightscript/highlights.scm

helix

Requires that helix has been cloned and the runtime/ dir has been copied to ~/.config/helix/runtime

# from helix root dir
mkdir -p ~/.config/helix
cp -a runtime ~/.config/helix/

# from tree-sitter-brightscript root dir
mkdir -p ~/.config/helix/runtime/queries/brightscript
ln -s $(pwd)/queries/highlights.scm ~/.config/helix/runtime/queries/brightscript/highlights.scm

Then build an and fetch

hx -g fetch
hx -g build
