Scorg 40eb26e580 build(bindings): move header to tree_sitter subdirectory
This patch allows users to include the parser by the same path from
local build as well as installed location. Previously it was not
possible to include the header prior to installing the built parser.

Tree-sitter CLI

crates.io badge npmjs.com badge

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 --locked 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 node on your PATH.
  • To run and test parsers, you must have a C and C++ compiler on your system.

Commands

  • generate - The tree-sitter generate command will generate a Tree-sitter parser based on the grammar in the current working directory. See the documentation for more information.

  • test - The tree-sitter test command will run the unit tests for the Tree-sitter parser in the current working directory. See the documentation for more information.

  • parse - The tree-sitter parse command will parse a file (or list of files) using Tree-sitter parsers.
