nvim-treesitter tag question

[boydkelly]

hi,
I am just realizing that nvim-treesitter working on nvim nightly has broken my 44000 line yaml file. If I go into the lazy world I can specify the nvim-treesitter tag "v0.9.2" which works fine (even with nightly). What are my options with Rocks? Would I need to remove the rocks-treesitter.nvim and install from git with the tag? I am assuming that would require removing all the 'rocks' tree sitter parsers? Or would it? Just need to figure out what direction to go... thx

Hey 👋

In principle, it should be possible to use nvim-treesitter (installed with rocks-git.nvim) in combination with rocks-treesitter.nvim. You would just need to make sure you don't configure them both to auto-highlight the same files.

Out of curiosity, what has broken?

Highlighting. Its a file I have worked on for the last 5 years with no problems. But now at around 33000 lines it just totally stops highlighting. And at that point running a vim.show.pos does not recognize the object under the cursor. Checked the repo for treesitter-yaml and there are no changes there for 3 years. So it seems its changes in nvim-treesitter for nvim 10 that has broken something. I do lots of linting and formatting with yq and lsp that report no errors in the file, and visually I can see nothing weird where it all stops. At least I have it working again with v0.9.2.

I think you're looking at the wrong tree-sitter-yaml repo: https://github.com/tree-sitter-grammars/tree-sitter-yaml

pinning nvim-treesitter 0.9.2 probably won't work for very long. There's been a breaking change to the captures and it's possible your colorscheme might stop supporting the legacy captures one day.

hmmm. Hopefully the tree-sitter folks will fix something. I don't know that I have the knowledge to toubleshoot treesitter! Thanks for the input though. I can confirm that for now its not a colorsheme issue per se. After the highlighting bombs out, then the vim.show.pos under the cursor no longer recongnizes the query elements... I downloaded a couple of popular nvim distros, and they all (after install and lazy update) have the same issue. But at this point I'm pretty confident there is nothing wrong with my yaml file. (Its produced by yq from valid xml; yaml lsp and yamllint find no issues) Since these are recent changes to the yaml grammars and captures then hopefully others that know what they are doing will fix it...... Thanks for nvim.rocks. It rocks! 👍
