Support Tree Sitter in Nova 10 #35

Closed byte-sourcerer closed 1 year ago

byte-sourcerer commented 2 years ago

Nova 10 (expected to released soon) supports Tree Sitter, which enables more accurate syntax highlighting. It would be great to support it.

Yes, I'm excited about it too! Using the Tree Sitter parser from the community will be far superior to my attempt at a grammar. Beta 4 seems to have resolved the crashers I was experiencing from the compiled library, so I should be able to dig into writing queries to connect to Nova features.

I know it's only been 23 days and not your full time job, but are there any updates on this front?

My thanks to you and everyone else for your patience. I am indeed juggling many life things, but have made some progress on this feature. I have a first pass on syntax highlighting but am currently a bit hung up on symbols – which has happened before. If forum help isn't forthcoming, I may punt on nicely organized symbols for now.

Any updates on this?

Good timing, as I just recently picked this up again. I got a new job late last year (with an all-Windows shop 😭) so I had to put this down and haven't been in Nova for a while. Things are starting to settle so I have some time and head space to poke at this some more.

I just pushed out a new version (2.3.0) using Tree Sitter. If you're still using this extension, I appreciate your patience. Please open a new issue if you have any suggestions or experience any problems with highlights and symbols!
