[macos] Treesitter re-installs parsers every time I open a relevant file

[renews]

https://share.cleanshot.com/BhpyrbXq

I recorded the video to make clear what is happening, basically every time I open vim again for that file type, it reinstall the tresitter parser.

Is there something wrong in my config? also in the video, let me know if I have to share something else.

Edit: I removed the ~/.local/share/nvim and ~/.cache/nvim too and still the same issue.

Hey :wave:

It looks like rocks.nvim can't find your parser. What'ts the output of

:lua =vim.api.nvim_get_runtime_file("parser/toml.so", true)

?

Also, could you please attach a :Rocks log?

There should be a parser symlink in ~/.local/share/nvim/rocks/rocks_rtp.

Hi 👋🏻 ! the result of the command is

:Rocks log is empty

And the folder

That's very curious. If that command outputs a non-empty table, rocks-treesitter.nvim starts highlighting and doesn't try to install the parser

https://github.com/nvim-neorocks/rocks-treesitter.nvim/blob/09b24aa8b240e67655a2faf796665a1787e92fbf/lua/rocks_treesitter/highlight.lua#L97

So unless perhaps you're using an outdated version of this plugin, the only reason it would try to install the parsers has to be that it's returning an empty table when you open the file.

I’m using the latest one, my because I’m on Mac with intel?

[mrcjkb]

Ha, that could indeed be the issue. You're possibly the first mac user using rocks-treesitter.nvim 😅

The plugin assumes that .dylib is the extension of the parsers (dynamically linked library), but in fact it's .so (static library), which is why the check is returning an empty list.

[mrcjkb]

Should be fixed after a :Rocks update or :Rocks install rocks-treesitter.nvim (if you don't want to update your other plugins).

[renews]

It's me again... Looks like that did not solve the issue =/ I tried first with Rocks update, quit reopen nvim and nothing. Tried with the direct install too.

Maybe some other part of the Rocks ecosystem ins not handling the macOS correctly? Just asking this because I also had an issue with the self install script of Rocks that was related to its binaries.

[mrcjkb]

🤔 could you please look into rocks_treesiter/highlight.lua in your rocks-treesitter install, and check if it still searches for a .dylib parser? (See the link I posted earlier).

[renews]

Looks correct

[mrcjkb]

You still have the old version installed. The new version doesn't search for dylib on macos: https://github.com/nvim-neorocks/rocks-treesitter.nvim/blob/11662de286de6661aa2a0014253c9521663f73a7/lua/rocks_treesitter/highlight.lua#L13

I guess :Rocks update didn't update the dev plugin, which may be another bug I need to investigate.

Just ruined a :checkhealth

Maybe this help on your investigation

For now, try uninstalling and then installing rocks-treesitter.nvim

Reinstalling seems to fix the issue. Thanks and sry for being the bringer of so many issues
