How to test-drive this tree-sitter parser? #20

Closed hellerbarde closed 1 year ago

hellerbarde commented 1 year ago

I would like to try this, but my nvim treesitter config-fu is not strong enough. Tree-sitter is working and everything, I just don't quite understand how to get this repo situated in the right place and in the right config file.

Thanks so much :)

More explicitly:

  1. Clone this repo
  2. Put this before your nvim-treesitter setup call: 
    local parser_configs = require("nvim-treesitter.parsers").get_parser_configs()
parser_configs.nim = {
install_info = {
url = "~/projects/treesitter/tree-sitter-nim", -- or where ever you cloned the repo to
files = { "src/parser.c", "src/scanner.cc"}
},
}
  3. Link/copy the queries (most importantly highlights.scm) from tree-sitter-nim/queries/nvim to <nvim plugin dir>/nvim-treesitter/queries/nim
  4. In Neovim: :TSInstall nim

That should do it
