Kotlin Grammar for Tree-Sitter

Kotlin language grammar for Tree-Sitter. You can try it out directly on the web.

The grammar is based on the official language grammar.

Project Structure

File	Description
grammar.js	The Tree-Sitter grammar
grammar-reference.js	A direct translation of the Kotlin language grammar that is, however, ambiguous to Tree-Sitter
src	The generated parser

Setup

npm install

Development

Compilation

To (re-)compile the grammar, run:

npm run generate

Note that the grammar is written completely in JavaScript (grammar.js), the other source files are generated by tree-sitter.

Testing

To run the unit tests, run:

npm run test

WebAssembly

Compilation

First make sure to have Emscripten installed. If you use Homebrew, you can brew install emscripten. Then run:

npm run build-wasm

Playground

After compiling the grammar to WebAssembly, you can invoke

npm run playground

to launch an interactive editing environment that displays the parsed syntax tree on-the-fly in the browser. You can also view a deployed version of this playground on the web.
