go tree-sitter

Build Status GoDoc

Golang bindings for tree-sitter

Usage

Create a parser with that grammar:

import (
	sitter "github.com/colinwm/go-tree-sitter"
	"github.com/colinwm/go-tree-sitter/javascript"
)

parser := sitter.NewParser()
parser.SetLanguage(javascript.GetLanguage())

Parse some code:

sourceCode = []byte("let a = 1")
tree := parser.Parse(nil, sourceCode)

Inspect the syntax tree:

n := tree.RootNode()

fmt.Println(n) // (program (lexical_declaration (variable_declarator (identifier) (number))))

child := n.NamedChild(0)
fmt.Println(child.Type()) // lexical_declaration
fmt.Println(child.StartByte()) // 0
fmt.Println(child.EndByte()) // 9

If your source code changes, you can update the syntax tree. This will take less time than the first parse.

// change 1 -> true
newText := []byte("let a = true")
tree.Edit(sitter.EditInput{
    StartIndex:  8,
    OldEndIndex: 9,
    NewEndIndex: 12,
    StartPoint: sitter.Point{
        Row:    0,
        Column: 8,
    },
    OldEndPoint: sitter.Point{
        Row:    0,
        Column: 9,
    },
    NewEndPoint: sitter.Point{
        Row:    0,
        Column: 12,
    },
})

// check that it changed tree
assert.True(n.HasChanges())
assert.True(n.Child(0).HasChanges())
assert.False(n.Child(0).Child(0).HasChanges()) // left side of the tree didn't change
assert.True(n.Child(0).Child(1).HasChanges())

// generate new tree
newTree := parser.Parse(tree, newText)
