tree-sitter-just

WIP: Tree-sitter grammar for Justfiles (casey/just)

To use treesitter based highlighting, folds etc. the queries need to be added to the runtimepath, until I get a PR into nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter you can install this repo as a plugin using Plug/packer/manual clone etc. This plugin also adds a simple ftdetect plugin for detecting justfiles.

Packer:

use "IndianBoy42/tree-sitter-just"

Plug

Plug 'IndianBoy42/tree-sitter-just'

Manual

git clone https://github.com/IndianBoy42/tree-sitter-just ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/tree-sitter-queries/start/tree-sitter-just

You can then do require('tree-sitter-just').setup({}) to register the parser with tree-sitter. You can then do TSInstall/TSUpdate as usual to install the parser

You can also add the parser manually using (This is similar to what is done in require"tree-sitter-just".setup({}))

require("nvim-treesitter.parsers").get_parser_configs().just = {
  install_info = {
    url = "https://github.com/IndianBoy42/tree-sitter-just", -- local path or git repo
    files = { "src/parser.c", "src/scanner.c" },
    branch = "main",
    -- use_makefile = true -- this may be necessary on MacOS (try if you see compiler errors)
  },
  maintainers = { "@IndianBoy42" },
}

Don't forget to :TSInstall after adding this. With this method you do not have to add this repo as a plugin.

If you run into problems relating to C++ 11 features, try including this in your setup (you may have to brew install gcc@11):

require"nvim-treesitter.install".compilers = {"gcc-11"}

Contributing

The easiest way to get started is, fittingly, with just.

# Make sure dependencies are available
just setup

# Create autogenerated files and run tests
just test

# Create autogenerated files without testing
just gen

# Check linting rules
just lint

# Apply formatting
just fmt

Note that just lint and just fmt must pass for all changes. You can verify these automatically before committing by running just pre-commit-install.

All our queries are in queries-src. This directory is what gets tested by tree-sitter, and should be usable by helix. To generate queries for NeoVim, run ./build-flavored-queries.py (this is run as part of npm run gen).

You can use the :InspectTree command to explore the resulting parse tree, and :Inspect to view highlight groups.

Quirks of Just

Just currently doesn't seem to support comments between attributes or within if statements, so we do not either.

[private]
# hello!
[no-cd]
foo:
foo := if true {
  # nope!
  "abcd"
}

Test Information

The tests directory contains "corpus" tests that are checked for syntax, as well as "highlight" tests that check the result. The "highlight" test directory includes some test files generated by the fuzzer that aren't always human readable.

TODO

  • Implement a basic parser that is able to understand all features of Justfiles
  • Implement support for highlighting using nvim-treesitter (reference, highlights.scm)
    • Write the queries
    • Implement locals queries
  • Implement queries for textobjects compatible with nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-textobjects
    • Write the queries
      • @block.inner|outer (recipe)
      • @function.inner|outer (recipe)
      • @call.inner|outer (dependencies)
      • @comment.outer
      • @parameter.inner|outer
      • @conditional.inner|outer
      • @statement.outer (recipe line or one variable)
    • Definitions and references
    • Scopenames
  • Implement support for indentation using nvim-treesitter
    • Write the queries
  • Implement support for code folding using nvim-treesitter (folds.scm)
    • Write the queries
  • Write Tests
  • Highlight the fish/bash/etc inside recipes (use tree-sitter injections)
  • Fix weirdness around trailing whitespace (don't leave trailing whitespace after the recipe header)
