tree-sitter-fsharp

tree-sitter grammar for F# (still WIP) Based on the 4.1 F# language specification (Mostly, Appendix A) and the F# compiler parser

Getting started

First, run npm install to install the tree-sitter cli. Next, the grammar can be build using npm run build, or used to parse a file with npm run parse $file

Project structure

The parser consists of two parts:

src/scanner.c is responsible for parsing newlines and comments and keeps track of indentation to open and close scopes.
grammar.js the main tree-sitter grammar. The indent tokens from the external scanner is access though the indent and dedent tokens.

The grammar starts with the file node at the beginning of the rules.

Adding to neovim

From the local copy:

local parser_config = require "nvim-treesitter.parsers".get_parser_configs()
parser_config.fsharp = {
  install_info = {
    url = "path/to/tree-sitter-fsharp",
    files = {"src/scanner.c", "src/parser.c" }
  },
  filetype = "fsharp",
}

From GitHub repository:

local parser_config = require "nvim-treesitter.parsers".get_parser_configs()
parser_config.fsharp = {
  install_info = {
    url = "https://github.com/ionide/tree-sitter-fsharp",
    branch = "main",
    files = {"src/scanner.c", "src/parser.c" },
  },
  filetype = "fsharp",
}

Then run :TSInstall fsharp inside neovim.

Status

The grammar currently has support for most language features, but might have rough edges. Offside tokens aren't supported.

Testing

Testing corpus

To run all tests stores in corpus/ run

$ npm test

Test parsing a specific file

$ npm run debug $file

How to contribute

Clone the project and start playing around with it. If you find a code example which fails to parse, please reduce it to a minimal example and added to the corpus (test/corpus/*.txt) as a test case.

For an introduction to developing tree-sitter parsers the official documentation is a good reference point.

PRs fleshing out the grammar or fixing bugs are welcome!
