title: Introducing tree-sitter-dune | ||

<p>I made a <a href="https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/">tree-sitter</a> plugin for | ||
<code>dune</code> files. It is available <a href="https://github.com/emillon/tree-sitter-dune">on | ||
GitHub</a>.</p> | ||
<p>Tree-sitter is a parsing system that can be used in text editors. | ||
<a href="https://dune.build/">Dune</a> is a build system for OCaml projects. | ||
Its configuration language lives in <code>dune</code> files which use a s-expression | ||
syntax.</p> | ||
<p>This makes highlighting challenging: the lexing part of the language is very | ||
simple (atoms, strings, parentheses), but it is not enough to make a good | ||
highlighter.</p> | ||
<p>In the following example, <code>with-stdout-to</code> and <code>echo</code> are “actions” that we | ||
could highlight in a special way, but these names can also appear in places | ||
where they are not interpreted as actions, and doing so would be confusing (for | ||
example, we could write to a file named <code>echo</code> instead of <code>foo.txt</code>.</p> | ||
<div class="sourceCode"><pre class="sourceCode scheme"><code class="sourceCode scheme"><span><a href="http://blog.emillon.org/feeds/ocaml.xml#cb1-1" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a>(rule</span> | ||
<span><a href="http://blog.emillon.org/feeds/ocaml.xml#cb1-2" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a> (action</span> | ||
<span><a href="http://blog.emillon.org/feeds/ocaml.xml#cb1-3" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a> (with-stdout-to</span> | ||
<span><a href="http://blog.emillon.org/feeds/ocaml.xml#cb1-4" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a> foo.txt</span> | ||
<span><a href="http://blog.emillon.org/feeds/ocaml.xml#cb1-5" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a> (echo <span class="st">"testing"</span>))))</span></code></pre></div> | ||
<p>Tree-sitter solves this, because it creates an actual parser that goes beyond | ||
lexing.</p> | ||
<p>In this example, I created grammar rules that parse the contents of <code>(action ...)</code> as an action, recognizing the various constructs of this DSL.</p> | ||
<p>The output of the parser is this syntax tree with location information (for | ||
some reason, line numbers start at 0 which is normal and unusual at the same | ||
time).</p> | ||
<pre><code>(source_file [0, 0] - [5, 0] | ||
(stanza [0, 0] - [4, 22] | ||
(stanza_name [0, 1] - [0, 5]) | ||
(field_name [1, 2] - [1, 8]) | ||
(action [2, 2] - [4, 20] | ||
(action_name [2, 3] - [2, 17]) | ||
(file_name_target [3, 3] - [3, 10] | ||
(file_name [3, 3] - [3, 10])) | ||
(action [4, 3] - [4, 19] | ||
(action_name [4, 4] - [4, 8]) | ||
(quoted_string [4, 9] - [4, 18])))))</code></pre> | ||
<p>The various strings are annotated with their type: we have stanza names | ||
(<code>rule</code>), field names (<code>action</code>), action names (<code>with-stdout-to</code>, <code>echo</code>), file | ||
names (<code>foo.txt</code>), and plain strings (<code>"testing"</code>).</p> | ||
<p>By itself, that is not useful, but it’s possible to write <em>queries</em> to make | ||
this syntax tree do interesting stuff.</p> | ||
<p>The first one is highlighting: we can set styles for various “patterns” (in | ||
practice, I only used node names) by defining queries:</p> | ||
<div class="sourceCode"><pre class="sourceCode scheme"><code class="sourceCode scheme"><span><a href="http://blog.emillon.org/feeds/ocaml.xml#cb3-1" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a>(stanza_name) @function</span> | ||
<span><a href="http://blog.emillon.org/feeds/ocaml.xml#cb3-2" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a>(field_name) @property</span> | ||
<span><a href="http://blog.emillon.org/feeds/ocaml.xml#cb3-3" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a>(quoted_string) @string</span> | ||
<span><a href="http://blog.emillon.org/feeds/ocaml.xml#cb3-4" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a>(multiline_string) @string</span> | ||
<span><a href="http://blog.emillon.org/feeds/ocaml.xml#cb3-5" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a>(action_name) @keyword</span></code></pre></div> | ||
<p>The parts with <code>@</code> map to “highlight groups” used in text editors.</p> | ||
<p>Another type of query is called “injections”. It is used to link different | ||
types of grammars together. For example, <code>dune</code> files can start with a special | ||
comment that indicates that the rest of the file is an OCaml program. In that | ||
case, the parser emits a single <code>ocaml_syntax</code> node and the following injection | ||
indicates that this file should be parsed using an OCaml parser:</p> | ||
<div class="sourceCode"><pre class="sourceCode scheme"><code class="sourceCode scheme"><span><a href="http://blog.emillon.org/feeds/ocaml.xml#cb4-1" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a>((ocaml_syntax) @injection.content</span> | ||
<span><a href="http://blog.emillon.org/feeds/ocaml.xml#cb4-2" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a> (#<span class="kw">set!</span> injection.language <span class="st">"ocaml"</span>))</span></code></pre></div> | ||
<p>Another use case for this is <code>system</code> actions: these strings in <code>dune</code> files | ||
could be interpreted using a shell parser.</p> | ||
<p>In the other direction, it is possible to inject <code>dune</code> files into another | ||
document. For example, a markdown parser can use injections to highlight code | ||
blocks.</p> | ||
<p>I’m happy to have explored this technology. The toolchain seemed complex at | ||
first: there’s a compiler which seems to be a mix of node and rust, which | ||
generates C, which is compiled into a dynamically loaded library; but this is | ||
actually pretty well integrated in nix and neovim to the details are made | ||
invisible.</p> | ||
<p>The testing mechanism is similar to the cram tests we use in Dune, but I was a | ||
bit confused with the colors at first: when the output of a test changes, Dune | ||
considers that the new output is a <code>+</code> in the diff, and highlights it in green; | ||
while tree-sitter considers that the “expected output” is green.</p> | ||
<p>There are many ways to improve this prototype: either by adding queries (it’s | ||
possible to define text objects, folding expressions, etc), or by improving | ||
coverage for <code>dune</code> files (in most cases, the parser uses a s-expression | ||
fallback). I’m also curious to see if it’s possible to use this parser to | ||
provide a completion source. Since the strings are tagged with their type (are | ||
we expecting a library name, a module name, etc), I think we could use that to | ||
provide context-specific completions, but that’s probably difficult to do.</p> | ||
<p>Thanks <a href="https://x.com/teej_dv">teej</a> for the initial idea and the useful | ||
resources.</p> |
