Go Tree-sitter

CI Go version Version Docs

This repository contains Go bindings for the Tree-sitter parsing library.

To use this in your Go project, run:

go get github.com/tree-sitter/go-tree-sitter@latest

Example usage:

package main

import (
    "fmt"

    tree_sitter "github.com/tree-sitter/go-tree-sitter"
    tree_sitter_javascript "github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-javascript/bindings/go"
)

func main() {
    code := []byte("const foo = 1 + 2")

    parser := tree_sitter.NewParser()
    defer parser.Close()
    parser.SetLanguage(tree_sitter.NewLanguage(tree_sitter_javascript.Language()))

    tree := parser.Parse(code, nil)
    defer tree.Close()

    root := tree.RootNode()
    fmt.Println(root.ToSexp())
}

By default, none of the grammars are included in this package. This way, you can only bring in what you need, but it's at the slight cost of having to call go get n times.

In the example above, to fetch the JavaScript grammar, you can run the following:

go get github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-javascript@latest

Alternatively you can also load grammars at runtime from a shared library via purego.

The example below shows how to load the JavaScript grammar from a shared library (libtree-sitter-PARSER_NAME.so) at runtime on Linux & macOS:

For more information on other platforms, see the purego documentation

package main

import (
	tree_sitter "github.com/tree-sitter/go-tree-sitter"
	"github.com/ebitengine/purego"
)

func main() {
	path := "/path/to/your/parser.so"
	lib, err := purego.Dlopen(path, purego.RTLD_NOW|purego.RTLD_GLOBAL)
	if err != nil {
        // handle error
    }

	var javascriptLanguage func() uintptr
	purego.RegisterLibFunc(&javascriptLanguage, lib, "tree_sitter_javascript")

	language := tree_sitter.NewLanguage(unsafe.Pointer(javascriptLanguage()))
}

[!NOTE] Due to bugs with runtime.SetFinalizer and CGO, you must always call Close on an object that allocates memory from C. This must be done for the Parser, Tree, TreeCursor, Query, QueryCursor, and LookaheadIterator objects.

For more information, see the documentation.

	CaptureQuantifierZeroOrMore
	CaptureQuantifierOne
	CaptureQuantifierOneOrMore
)

type Decoder interface {
	// Decode takes a byte slice and returns the decoded code point and number of bytes consumed
	// Returns -1 as codePoint if decoding fails
	Decode(data []byte) (codePoint int32, bytesRead uint32)
}

	StartPosition  Point
	OldEndPosition Point
	NewEndPosition Point
}

}

An opaque object that defines how to parse a particular language. The code for each Language is generated by the Tree-sitter CLI.

func NewLanguage 

func NewLanguage(ptr unsafe.Pointer) *Language

func (*Language) AbiVersion added in v0.25.0 

func (l *Language) AbiVersion() uint32

Get the ABI version number that indicates which version of the Tree-sitter CLI that was used to generate this Language.

func (*Language) FieldCount 

func (l *Language) FieldCount() uint32

Get the number of distinct field names in this language.

Iterating LookaheadIterator will yield valid symbols in the given parse state. Newly created lookahead iterators will return the `ERROR` symbol from LookaheadIterator.Symbol.

Lookahead iterators can be useful to generate suggestions and improve syntax error diagnostics. To get symbols valid in an ERROR node, use the lookahead iterator on its first leaf node state. For `MISSING` nodes, a lookahead iterator created on the previous non-extra leaf node may be appropriate.

func (*Language) Metadata added in v0.25.0

Get the byte range of source code that this node represents.

func (*Node) Child 

func (n *Node) Child(i uint) *Node

Get the node's child at the given index, where zero represents the first child.

This method is fairly fast, but its cost is technically log(i), so if you might be iterating over a long list of children, you should use Node.Children instead.

func (*Node) ChildByFieldId 

func (n *Node) ChildByFieldId(fieldId uint16) *Node

Get this node's child with the given numerical field id.

See also Node.ChildByFieldName. You can convert a field name to an id using Language.FieldIdForName.

Get the first child with the given field name.

If multiple children may have the same field name, access them using Node.ChildrenByFieldName

Get this node's number of children.

func (*Node) ChildWithDescendant added in v0.24.0 

func (n *Node) ChildWithDescendant(descendant *Node) *Node

Get the node that contains `descendant`. Note that this can return `descendant` itself.

func (*Node) Children 

func (n *Node) Children(cursor *TreeCursor) []Node

Iterate over this node's children.

A TreeCursor is used to retrieve the children efficiently. Obtain a TreeCursor by calling Tree.Walk or Node.Walk. To avoid unnecessary allocations, you should reuse the same cursor for subsequent calls to this method.

If you're walking the tree recursively, you may want to use the TreeCursor APIs directly instead.

func (*Node) ChildrenByFieldName 

func (n *Node) ChildrenByFieldName(fieldName string, cursor *TreeCursor) []Node

Iterate over this node's children with a given field name.

See also Node.Children.

func (*Node) DescendantCount

func (*Node) Edit 

func (n *Node) Edit(edit *InputEdit)

Edit this node to keep it in-sync with source code that has been edited.

This function is only rarely needed. When you edit a syntax tree with the Tree.Edit method, all of the nodes that you retrieve from the tree afterward will already reflect the edit. You only need to use Node.Edit when you have a specific Node instance that you want to keep and continue to use after an edit.

func (*Node) EndByte 

func (n *Node) EndByte() uint

Get the byte offsets where this node end.

func (*Node) EndPosition

func (n *Node) Id() uintptr

Get a numeric id for this node that is unique.

Within a given syntax tree, no two nodes have the same id. However, if a new tree is created based on an older tree, and a node from the old tree is reused in the process, then that node will have the same id in both trees.

func (*Node) IsError 

func (n *Node) IsError() bool

Check if this node represents a syntax error.

Syntax errors represent parts of the code that could not be incorporated into a valid syntax tree.

Check if this node is *extra*.

Extra nodes represent things like comments, which are not required in the grammar, but can appear anywhere.

func (*Node) IsMissing 

func (n *Node) IsMissing() bool

Check if this node is *missing*.

Missing nodes are inserted by the parser in order to recover from certain kinds of syntax errors.

func (*Node) IsNamed 

func (n *Node) IsNamed() bool

func (*Node) NamedChild 

func (n *Node) NamedChild(i uint) *Node

Get this node's *named* child at the given index.

See also Node.IsNamed. This method is fairly fast, but its cost is technically log(i), so if you might be iterating over a long list of children, you should use Node.NamedChildren instead.

Get this node's number of *named* children.

See also Node.IsNamed.

func (*Node) NamedChildren 

func (n *Node) NamedChildren(cursor *TreeCursor) []Node

type ParseOptions added in v0.25.0 

type ParseOptions struct {
	// A function that is called periodically during parsing to check
	// whether parsing should be cancelled. If the progress callback returns
	// `true`, then parsing will be cancelled. You can also use this to instrument

	// takes a single argument, which is a [ParseState] representing the current
	// state of the parser.
	ProgressCallback func(ParseState) bool
}

func (*Parser) Parse 

func (p *Parser) Parse(text []byte, oldTree *Tree) *Tree

Parse a slice of UTF8 text.

Arguments:

  • `text` The UTF8-encoded text to parse.
  • `old_tree` A previous syntax tree parsed from the same document. If the text of the document has changed since `old_tree` was created, then you must edit `old_tree` to match the new text using Tree.Edit.
Example 
parser := NewParser()
defer parser.Close()

language := NewLanguage(tree_sitter_go.Language())

parser.SetLanguage(language)

tree := parser.Parse(
	[]byte(`
			package main


			func main() {
				return
			}
		`),
	nil,
)
defer tree.Close()

rootNode := tree.RootNode()
fmt.Println(rootNode.ToSexp())

Output:

(source_file (package_clause (package_identifier)) (function_declaration name: (identifier) parameters: (parameter_list) body: (block (return_statement))))

func (*Parser) ParseCtx deprecated 

func (p *Parser) ParseCtx(ctx context.Context, text []byte, oldTree *Tree) *Tree

Deprecated: Use Parser.ParseWithOptions instead, and handle cancellation in the callback, this will be removed in 0.26.

Parse a slice of UTF8 text.

Arguments:

  • `ctx` The context to parse with.
  • `text` The UTF8-encoded text to parse.
  • `old_tree` A previous syntax tree parsed from the same document. If the text of the document has changed since `old_tree` was created, then you must edit `old_tree` to match the new text using Tree.Edit.

func (*Parser) ParseCustomEncoding added in v0.25.0 

func (p *Parser) ParseCustomEncoding(
	callback func(int, Point) []byte,
	oldTree *Tree,
	options *ParseOptions,
	decode unsafe.Pointer,
) *Tree

Parse text provided in chunks by a callback using a custom encoding. This is useful for parsing text in encodings that are not UTF-8 or UTF-16.

Arguments:

  • `callback` A function that takes a byte offset and position and returns a slice of text starting at that byte offset and position. The slices can be of any length. If the given position is at the end of the text, the callback should return an empty slice.
  • `old_tree` A previous syntax tree parsed from the same document. If the text of the document has changed since `old_tree` was created, then you must edit `old_tree` to match the new text using [`Tree::edit`].
  • `options` Options for parsing the text. This can be used to set a progress callback.
  • `decode` A function that takes a byte slice and returns the number of bytes consumed. It will also write the resulting code point to `codePoint`. If decoding fails, the function should write -1 to the code point. The signature for the function is the following: func myDecodeFn(data *C.char, length C.uint32_t, codePoint *C.int32_t) C.uint32_t Note that this function *must* be a C function, as it's called many times during parsing. To have a Go function be callable from C, you must use the `//export` directive. More info can be found at https://pkg.go.dev/cmd/cgo#hdr-C_references_to_Go. The reason for this is that knowing the function body at compile time rather than loading it at runtime is important for performance. This is also a significantly advanced feature, and should only be used if you have a good reason to do so, and understand how to implement the C function. An example of how to use this can be found in `parser_test.go`.

func (*Parser) ParseUTF16 deprecated 

func (p *Parser) ParseUTF16(text []uint16, oldTree *Tree) *Tree

Deprecated: Use Parser.ParseUTF16LE or Parser.ParseUTF16BE instead. Parse a slice of UTF16 text.

Arguments:

  • `text` The UTF16-encoded text to parse.
  • `old_tree` A previous syntax tree parsed from the same document. If the text of the document has changed since `old_tree` was created, then you must edit `old_tree` to match the new text using Tree.Edit.

Arguments:

  • `callback` A function that takes a code point offset and position and returns a slice of UTF16-encoded text starting at that byte offset and position. The slices can be of any length. If the given position is at the end of the text, the callback should return an empty slice.
  • `old_tree` A previous syntax tree parsed from the same document. If the text of the document has changed since `old_tree` was created, then you must edit `old_tree` to match the new text using Tree.Edit.
  • `options` Options for parsing the text. This can be used to set a progress callback.

Example 
parser := NewParser()
defer parser.Close()

language := NewLanguage(tree_sitter_go.Language())

parser.SetLanguage(language)

sourceCode := []byte(`
			package main

			func main() {
				return
			}
	`)

readCallback := func(offset int, position Point) []byte {
	return sourceCode[offset:]
}

tree := parser.ParseWithOptions(readCallback, nil, nil)
defer tree.Close()

rootNode := tree.RootNode()
fmt.Println(rootNode.ToSexp())

Output:

(source_file (package_clause (package_identifier)) (function_declaration name: (identifier) parameters: (parameter_list) body: (block (return_statement))))

func (*Parser) PrintDotGraphs 

func (p *Parser) PrintDotGraphs(file *os.File)

Set the destination to which the parser should write debugging graphs during parsing. The graphs are formatted in the DOT language. You may want to pipe these graphs directly to a `dot(1)` process in order to generate SVG output.

func (*Parser) Reset 

func (p *Parser) Reset()

Instruct the parser to start the next parse from the beginning.

If the parser previously failed because of a timeout or a cancellation, then by default, it will resume where it left off on the next call to Parser.Parse or other parsing functions. If you don't want to resume, and instead intend to use this parser to parse some other document, you must call `Reset` first.

func (*Parser) SetCancellationFlag deprecated 

func (p *Parser) SetCancellationFlag(flag *uintptr)

Deprecated: Use Parser.ParseWithOptions and pass in a callback instead, this will be removed in 0.26.

Set the parser's current cancellation flag pointer.

If a pointer is assigned, then the parser will periodically read from this pointer during parsing. If it reads a non-zero value, it will halt early, returning `nil`. See Parser.Parse for more information.

func (*Parser) SetIncludedRanges 

func (p *Parser) SetIncludedRanges(ranges []Range) error

Set the ranges of text that the parser should include when parsing.

By default, the parser will always include entire documents. This function allows you to parse only a *portion* of a document but still return a syntax tree whose ranges match up with the document as a whole. You can also pass multiple disjoint ranges.

If `ranges` is empty, then the entire document will be parsed. Otherwise, the given ranges must be ordered from earliest to latest in the document, and they must not overlap. That is, the following must hold for all `i` < `length - 1`: 

ranges[i].end_byte <= ranges[i + 1].start_byte

If this requirement is not satisfied, method will return IncludedRangesError error with an offset in the passed ranges slice pointing to a first incorrect range.

func (*Parser) SetLanguage 

func (p *Parser) SetLanguage(l *Language) error

Set the language that the parser should use for parsing.

Returns an error indicating whether or not the language was successfully assigned. Nil means assignment succeeded. Non-nil means there was a version mismatch: the language was generated with an incompatible version of the Tree-sitter CLI. Check the language's ABI version using Language.Version and compare it to this library's LANGUAGE_VERSION and MIN_COMPATIBLE_LANGUAGE_VERSION constants.

func (*Parser) SetLogger 

func (p *Parser) SetLogger(logger Logger)

Set the logging callback that a parser should use during parsing.

func (*Parser) SetTimeoutMicros deprecated 

func (p *Parser) SetTimeoutMicros(timeoutMicros uint64)

Deprecated: Use Parser.ParseWithOptions and pass in a callback instead, this will be removed in 0.26.

Set the maximum duration in microseconds that parsing should be allowed to take before halting.

If parsing takes longer than this, it will halt early, returning `nil`. See Parser.Parse for more information.

func (*Parser) StopPrintingDotGraphs 

func (p *Parser) StopPrintingDotGraphs()

Stop the parser from printing debugging graphs while parsing.

func (*Parser) TimeoutMicros deprecated 

func (p *Parser) TimeoutMicros() uint64

func (*QueryCaptures) Next 

func (qc *QueryCaptures) Next() (*QueryMatch, uint)

Next will return the next match in the sequence of matches, as well as the index of the capture.

Subsequent calls to QueryCaptures.Next will overwrite the memory at the same location as prior matches, since the memory is reused. You can think of this as a stateful iterator. If you need to keep the data of a prior match without it being overwritten, you should copy what you need before calling QueryCaptures.Next again.

If there are no more matches, it will return nil.

func (*QueryCaptures) SetByteRange 

func (qc *QueryCaptures) SetByteRange(startByte uint, endByte uint)

func (*QueryCursor) Captures 

func (qc *QueryCursor) Captures(query *Query, node *Node, text []byte) QueryCaptures

Iterate over all of the individual captures in the order that they appear.

This is useful if you don't care about which pattern matched, and just want a single, ordered sequence of captures.

Example 
language := NewLanguage(tree_sitter_go.Language())
parser := NewParser()
defer parser.Close()
parser.SetLanguage(language)

sourceCode := []byte(`
		package main

		import "fmt"

		func main() { fmt.Println("Hello, world!") }
	`)

tree := parser.Parse(sourceCode, nil)
defer tree.Close()

query, err := NewQuery(
	language,
	`
		(function_declaration
			name: (identifier) @function.name
			body: (block) @function.block
		)
		`,
)
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
defer query.Close()

qc := NewQueryCursor()
defer qc.Close()

captures := qc.Captures(query, tree.RootNode(), sourceCode)

for match, index := captures.Next(); match != nil; match, index = captures.Next() {
	fmt.Printf(
		"Capture %d: %s\n",
		index,
		match.Captures[index].Node.Utf8Text(sourceCode),
	)
}

func (*QueryCursor) Matches 

func (qc *QueryCursor) Matches(query *Query, node *Node, text []byte) QueryMatches

Iterate over all of the matches in the order that they were found.

Each match contains the index of the pattern that matched, and a list of captures. Because multiple patterns can match the same set of nodes, one match may contain captures that appear *before* some of the captures from a previous match.

Example 
language := NewLanguage(tree_sitter_go.Language())
parser := NewParser()
defer parser.Close()
parser.SetLanguage(language)

sourceCode := []byte(`
		package main

		import "fmt"

		func main() { fmt.Println("Hello, world!") }
	`)

tree := parser.Parse(sourceCode, nil)
defer tree.Close()

query, err := NewQuery(
	language,
	`
		(function_declaration
			name: (identifier) @function.name
			body: (block) @function.block
		)
		`,
)
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
defer query.Close()

qc := NewQueryCursor()
defer qc.Close()

matches := qc.Matches(query, tree.RootNode(), sourceCode)

for match := matches.Next(); match != nil; match = matches.Next() {
	for _, capture := range match.Captures {
		fmt.Printf(
			"Match %d, Capture %d (%s): %s\n",
			match.PatternIndex,
			capture.Index,
			query.CaptureNames()[capture.Index],
			capture.Node.Utf8Text(sourceCode),
		)
	}
}

Output:

Match 0, Capture 0 (function.name): main
Match 0, Capture 1 (function.block): { fmt.Println("Hello, world!") }

func (*QueryCursor) MatchesWithOptions added in v0.25.0 

func (qc *QueryCursor) MatchesWithOptions(query *Query, node *Node, text []byte, options QueryCursorOptions) QueryMatches

Iterate over all of the matches in the order that they were found, with options.

Each match contains the index of the pattern that matched, and a list of captures. Because multiple patterns can match the same set of nodes, one match may contain captures that appear *before* some of the captures from a previous match.

func (*QueryCursor) SetByteRange 

func (qc *QueryCursor) SetByteRange(startByte uint, endByte uint) *QueryCursor

Set the range of bytes in which the query will be executed.

The query cursor will return matches that intersect with the given point range. This means that a match may be returned even if some of its captures fall outside the specified range, as long as at least part of the match overlaps with the range.

For example, if a query pattern matches a node that spans a larger area than the specified range, but part of that node intersects with the range, the entire match will be returned.

This will have no effect if the start byte is greater than the end byte.

func (*QueryCursor) SetMatchLimit 

func (qc *QueryCursor) SetMatchLimit(limit uint)

Set the maximum number of in-progress matches for this cursor. The limit must be > 0 and <= 65536.

func (*QueryCursor) SetMaxStartDepth 

func (qc *QueryCursor) SetMaxStartDepth(depth *uint) *QueryCursor

Set the maximum start depth for a query cursor.

This prevents cursors from exploring children nodes at a certain depth. Note if a pattern includes many children, then they will still be checked.

The zero max start depth value can be used as a special behavior and it helps to destructure a subtree by staying on a node and using captures for interested parts. Note that the zero max start depth only limit a search depth for a pattern's root node but other nodes that are parts of the pattern may be searched at any depth what defined by the pattern structure.

Set to `nil` to remove the maximum start depth.

func (*QueryCursor) SetPointRange 

func (qc *QueryCursor) SetPointRange(startPoint Point, endPoint Point) *QueryCursor

Set the range of (row, column) positions in which the query will be executed.

The query cursor will return matches that intersect with the given point range. This means that a match may be returned even if some of its captures fall outside the specified range, as long as at least part of the match overlaps with the range.

For example, if a query pattern matches a node that spans a larger area than the specified range, but part of that node intersects with the range, the entire match will be returned.

This will have no effect if the start point is greater than the end point.

func (*QueryCursor) SetTimeoutMicros added in v0.24.0 

func (qc *QueryCursor) SetTimeoutMicros(timeoutMicros uint64)

	// and check where the query is at in the document. The progress callback takes a single
	// argument, which is a [QueryCursorState] representing the current state of the query.
	ProgressCallback func(QueryCursorState) bool
}

A sequence of [QueryMatch]es associated with a given QueryCursor.

func (*QueryMatches) Next 

func (qm *QueryMatches) Next() *QueryMatch

Next will return the next match in the sequence of matches.

Subsequent calls to QueryMatches.Next will overwrite the memory at the same location as prior matches, since the memory is reused. You can think of this as a stateful iterator. If you need to keep the data of a prior match without it being overwritten, you should copy what you need before calling QueryMatches.Next again.

If there are no more matches, it will return nil.

 End point: {5 12}
 Start byte: 46
 End byte: 48

func (*Tree) ChangedRanges 

func (t *Tree) ChangedRanges(other *Tree) []Range

Compare this old edited syntax tree to a new syntax tree representing the same document, returning a sequence of ranges whose syntactic structure has changed.

For this to work correctly, this syntax tree must have been edited such that its ranges match up to the new tree. Generally, you'll want to call this method right after calling one of the [Parser.parse] functions. Call it on the old tree that was passed to parse, and pass the new tree that was returned from `parse`.

The returned ranges indicate areas where the hierarchical structure of syntax nodes (from root to leaf) has changed between the old and new trees. Characters outside these ranges have identical ancestor nodes in both trees.

Note that the returned ranges may be slightly larger than the exact changed areas, but Tree-sitter attempts to make them as small as possible.

			}
		`),
	nil,
)
defer tree.Close()

cursor := tree.Walk()

This returns the index of the child node if one was found, and returns `nil` if no such child was found.

func (*TreeCursor) GotoLastChild 

func (tc *TreeCursor) GotoLastChild() bool

Move this cursor to the last child of its current node.

This returns `true` if the cursor successfully moved, and returns `false` if there were no children.

Note that this function may be slower than TreeCursor.GotoFirstChild because it needs to iterate through all the children to compute the child's position.

func (*TreeCursor) GotoNextSibling 

func (tc *TreeCursor) GotoNextSibling() bool

Move this cursor to the next sibling of its current node.

This returns `true` if the cursor successfully moved, and returns `false` if there was no next sibling node.

Note that the given node is considered the root of the cursor, and the cursor cannot walk outside this node.

func (*TreeCursor) GotoParent 

func (tc *TreeCursor) GotoParent() bool

Move this cursor to the parent of its current node.

This returns `true` if the cursor successfully moved, and returns `false` if there was no parent node (the cursor was already on the root node).

Note that the given node is considered the root of the cursor, and the cursor cannot walk outside this node.

func (*TreeCursor) GotoPreviousSibling 

func (tc *TreeCursor) GotoPreviousSibling() bool

Move this cursor to the previous sibling of its current node.

This returns `true` if the cursor successfully moved, and returns `false` if there was no previous sibling node.

Note, that this function may be slower than TreeCursor.GotoNextSibling due to how node positions are stored. In the worst case, this will need to iterate through all the children upto the previous sibling node to recalculate its position. Also note that the node the cursor was constructed with is considered the root of the cursor, and the cursor cannot walk outside this node.

func (*TreeCursor) Node 

func (tc *TreeCursor) Node() *Node

Get the tree cursor's current Node.

func (*TreeCursor) Reset 

func (tc *TreeCursor) Reset(node Node)

Re-initialize this tree cursor to start at the original node that the cursor was constructed with.

func (*TreeCursor) ResetTo 

func (tc *TreeCursor) ResetTo(cursor *TreeCursor)

Re-initialize a tree cursor to the same position as another cursor.

Unlike TreeCursor.Reset, this will not lose parent information and allows reusing already created cursors.
