This module provides Swift bindings for the tree-sitter parsing library
Add it as a dependency in the Package.swift file.
.package(url: "https://github.com/viktorstrate/swift-tree-sitter", from: "1.0.0")Or from Xcode navigate to File -> Swift Packages -> Add Package Dependency..., then enter this url:
https://github.com/viktorstrate/swift-tree-sitter
If you want to load languages from .bundles dynamically at runtime, you'll have to import it directly to Xcode as Mac bundles aren't supported using the Swift Package Manager.
To do this, download the project and drag the folder with the SwiftTreeSitter.xcodeproj file into the sidebar of your Xcode project.
First you'll need to setup the Parser and specify what language to use.
let javascript = try STSLanguage(fromPreBundle: .javascript)
let parser = STSParser(language: javascript)Then you can parse some source code.
let sourceCode = "let x = 1; console.log(x);";
let tree = parser.parse(string: sourceCode, oldTree: nil)!
print(tree.rootNode.sExpressionString!)
// (program
// (lexical_declaration
// (variable_declarator name: (identifier) value: (number)))
// (expression_statement
// (call_expression function:
// (member_expression object: (identifier)
// property: (property_identifier))
// arguments: (arguments (identifier)))))Inspect the syntax tree.
let callExpression = tree.rootNode.child(at: 1).firstChild(forOffset: 0)
print("type:\t\(callExpression.type)")
print("start point:\t\(callExpression.startPoint)")
print("end point:\t\(callExpression.endPoint)")
print("start byte:\t\(callExpression.startByte)")
print("end byte:\t\(callExpression.endByte)")
// type: call_expression
// start point: STSPoint(row: 0, column: 11)
// end point: STSPoint(row: 0, column: 25)
// start byte: 11
// end byte: 25If your source code changes you can update the syntax tree. This will take less time than to recompute the tree from scratch again.
// replace let with const
let newSourceCode = "const x = 1; console.log(x);";
tree.edit(
STSInputEdit(
startByte: 0,
oldEndByte: 3,
newEndByte: 5,
startPoint: STSPoint(row: 0, column: 0),
oldEndPoint: STSPoint(row: 0, column: 3),
newEndPoint: STSPoint(row: 0, column: 5)
))
let newTree = parser.parse(string: newSourceCode, oldTree: tree)If your text is stored in a custom data source,
you can parse it by passing a callback to .parse() instead of a String.
let sourceLines = [
"let x = 1;\n",
"console.log(x);\n"
]
let tree = parser.parse(callback: { (byte, point) -> [Int8] in
if (point.row >= sourceLines.count) {
return []
}
let line = sourceLines[Int(point.row)]
let index = line.index(line.startIndex, offsetBy: Int(point.column))
let slice = line[index...]
let array = Array(slice.utf8).map { Int8($0) }
return array
}, oldTree: nil)
