Problem:
The {foo} parameters listed in `:help api` and similar generated docs,
are intended to be a "list" but they aren't prefixed with a list symbol.
This prevents parsers from understanding the list, which forces
generators like `gen_help_html.lua` to use hard-wrapped/preformatted
layout instead of a soft-wrapped "flow" layout.
Solution:
Modify gen_vimdoc.py to prefix {foo} parameters with a "•" symbol.
fix(treesitter): get_captures_at_position returns metadata
Return the full `metadata` table for the capture instead of just the
priority.
Further cleanup of related docs.
Use the first, not last, query for a language on runtimepath. Typically,
this implies that a user query will override a site plugin query, which
will override a bundled runtime query.
Problem: Treesitter queries for a given language in runtime were merged together,
leading to errors if they targeted different parser versions (e.g., bundled viml queries
and those shipped by nvim-treesitter).
Solution: Runtime queries now work as follows:
* The last query in the rtp without `; extends` in the header will be used as the base query
* All queries (without a specific order) with `; extends` are concatenated with the base query
BREAKING CHANGE: queries need to be updated if they are meant to extend other queries
* Add vim.treesitter.start() for starting treesitter highlighting via
ftplugin or autocommand (can be extended later for fold, indent,
matchpairs, ...)
* Add vim.treesitter.stop() for manually stopping treesitter
highlighting
* Enable treesitter highlighting for Lua if
`vim.g.ts_highlight_lua = true` is set in `init.lua`
This removes the support for defining links via
vim.treesitter.highlighter.hl_map (never documented, but plugins did
anyway), or the uppercase-only `@FooGroup.Bar` to `FooGroup` rule.
The fallback is now strictly `@foo.bar.lang` to `@foo.bar` to `@foo`,
and casing is irrelevant (as it already was outside of treesitter)
For compatibility, define default links to builting syntax groups
as defined by pre-existing color schemes
Previously the `offset!` directive populated the metadata in such a way
that the new range could be attributed to a specific capture. #14046
made it so the directive simply stored just the new range in the
metadata and information about what capture the range is based from is
lost.
This change reverts that whilst also correcting the docs.
This will check if the string after the variable in a @param is either
"number", "string", "table", "boolean" and "function" and if so add a
parenthesis around it. This will help separate the variable type with
the following text. Had all our functions been annotated with emmylua
then a more robust solution might have been preferable (such as always
assuming the third string is parameter type without making any checks).
I believe however this is a clear improvement over the current situation
and will suffice for now.
For the case of Clojure and other Lisp syntax highlighting, it is
necessary to create huge regexps consisting of hundreds of symbols with
the pipe (|) character. To make things more difficult, these Lisp
symbols sometimes consists of special characters that are themselves
part of special regexp characters like '*'. In addition to being
difficult to maintain, it's performance is suboptimal.
This patch introduces a new predicate to perform 'source' matching in
amortized constant time. This is accomplished by compiling a hash table
on the first use.
