Segfault in neovim when injected in markdown

[kyazdani42]

Hi, when injecting an elm tag inside markdown in neovim, neovim will segfault. To reproduce:

• open nvim test.md (with nvim-treesitter and elm/markdown parsers installed)
• write:

  ```elm
  `

  I first thought it was related to the markdown parser, but since other languages do not segfault, i believe this is related to this parser.

This unsurprisingly is also reproducible in other editors. I just hit it in helix. Someone else also hit it an filed a while back: https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/issues/3745

Update: this bug doesn't seem to happen anymore. However, it seems writing any elm code in a fenced markdown code block leads to the editor crashing.

I just encountered a similar problem in helix with a normal Elm module (with an invalid use of an undefined type instance as the input to a case expression): https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/issues/6981

reproduced this in helix with dillonkearns/elm-markdown. cd to repo, space-f, segfault. helix 23.03, elm-language-server 2.7.0.

I'm not able to reproduce it, entering the mentioned code in test.elm and running npm run parse-test. I've tried with all inbetween states I could think of.

maybe the problem isn't in the parsing but something that happens after that? just guessing

had the same issue in helix with dillonkearns/elm-markdown

Just discovered the same issue in neovim with codeblocks and elm in markdown, I was going to post an issue but instead I guess I'll just follow this thread.

In the mean time I'm currently trying to figure out if I can disable specific parsers on a per file type basis, will report back if if this works as a temporary fix.

[aaaaargZombies]

For anyone else who is having the same issue, I updated nvim to v0.9.5 and the issue is no longer effecting me.

[kyazdani42]

I don't see this issue too anymore, should we close it ?

[bburdette]

I'm still seeing this crash in elm-language-server 2.8.0, with the helix editor.

I'm still seeing this crash in elm-language-server 2.8.0, with the helix editor.

looks like helix is behind this repo https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/blob/master/languages.toml#L1674 might be an easy PR to make if that fixes it?

[bburdette]

I put this

[[grammar]]
name = "elm"
source = { git = "https://github.com/elm-tooling/tree-sitter-elm" , rev = "09dbf221d7491dc8d8839616b27c21b9c025c457" }

Into my .config/helix/langauges.toml file, but it still crashes. rev is current main since feb 18.

No idea if I'm doing it right, but gave it a shot.
