Exposes an api function that can be used to get a parse tree node for a given file location. Can be used as follows:

const parseTreeExtension = vscode.extensions.getExtension("pokey.parse-tree");

if (parseTreeExtension == null) {
  throw new Error("Depends on pokey.parse-tree extension");
}

const { getNodeAtLocation } = await parseTreeExtension.activate();

Don't forget to add add an extensionDependencies-entry to package.json as described in https://code.visualstudio.com/api/references/vscode-api#extensions.

1. yarn
2. Install emscripten for generating parser wasm files

It's straightforward to add any language with a tree-sitter grammar.

1. Add a dependency on the npm package for that language: yarn add -D tree-sitter-yourlang.
2. Add a language to the dictionary at the top of ./src/extension.ts
3. Add a reference to onLanguage:yourlang to the activationEvents section of package.json. yourlang must be a VSCode language identifier.
4. Add your language to the top of the Makefile
5. Run yarn compile, then hit F5 in VSCode, with this project open, to test your changes.
6. Submit a PR!

When working with WSL, the host vscode instance connects to a vscode server on the WSL vm. This happens automatically when you run "code" in WSL, as long as you have the "Remote - WSL" extension installed on the host. From there you need to:

• Install the pokey.command-server extension on the host vscode
• Clone the extension in the WSL side.
• If you're adding language support to vscode-parse-tree, you need to clone that as well, build it, and link it into the vscode-server extension folder: ln -s ~/your/code/vscode-parse-tree ~/.vscode-server/extensions/parse-tree for instance.
• If you get errors about needing to install the Remote-WSL extension, you might need to manually delete the extension from the host side and try again.

We build a custom version of web-tree-sitter to ensure that we can always use the latest version and fix any problems as they come up. To update web-tree-sitter:

1. Update the variable TREE_SITTER_VERSION in the Makefile;
2. Update the path to web-tree-sitter in package.json;
3. (Optional) Create a new patch in patches/tree-sitter+$TREE_SITTER_VERSION.patch.

The script which builds our custom version is in the Makefile.

See CHANGELOG.md.
