tree-sitter 0.19.0 bumped the language version from 12 to 13. `npm install tree-sitter-cli` gets a recent version of tree-sitter, which generates languages with language version 13. However, the Cargo.toml generated from `tree-sitter generate` still has a an old tree-sitter as a dependency. This causes the rust bindings to not work out of the box, as the tree-sitter library expects language version 12. It would be nice to add a test for this in CI. `tree-sitter generate` already creates a test for the rust binding, and that test fails out of the box due to the language mismatch. |

Tree-sitter CLI
The Tree-sitter CLI allows you to develop, test, and use Tree-sitter grammars from the command line. It works on MacOS, Linux, and Windows.
Installation
You can install the tree-sitter-cli with cargo:
cargo install tree-sitter-cli
or with npm:
npm install tree-sitter-cli
You can also download a pre-built binary for your platform from the releases page.
Dependencies
The tree-sitter binary itself has no dependencies, but specific commands have dependencies that must be present at runtime:
- To generate a parser from a grammar, you must have
nodeon your PATH. - To run and test parsers, you must have a C and C++ compiler on your system.
Commands
-
generate- Thetree-sitter generatecommand will generate a Tree-sitter parser based on the grammar in the current working directory. See the documentation for more information. -
test- Thetree-sitter testcommand will run the unit tests for the Tree-sitter parser in the current working directory. See the documentation for more information. -
parse- Thetree-sitter parsecommand will parse a file (or list of file) using Tree-sitter parsers.
