Where to get language definition for bash tree-sitter?

Where to get language definition for bash tree-sitter?

[Jean Louis]

When I do:

M-x bash-ts-mode

I get this warning:

⛔ Warning (treesit): Cannot activate tree-sitter, because language definition for bash is unavailable (not-found): (libtree-sitter-bash libtree-sitter-bash.so) No such file or directory

Where to get language definition for bash tree-sitter?

Here:

  https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-bash.git

(You can always find it by just typing "tree-sitter grammar for Bash"
into a Web search.)

Alright and where do I install it?

I have built it, though I have not found instruction where and how to install it.

Should be a Makefile and README?

You need the dynamic library (shared object) file, then look for
where it is looked for, normally /lib/ or /usr/lib/.

Please see NEWS in the emacs-29 branch of the Emacs Git repository, I
believe it answers this (and other related) questions.  Search for
"tree-sitter" there (there's more than one entry).

I use url = git://git.sv.gnu.org/emacs.git for git and pull it
regularly by thinking that is the one. Is it the right one?

I can't find the word "tree" in etc/NEWS

Maybe, maybe not; not enough information.  You haven't said which
branch of the Git repository you are tracking when you pull from Git.

> I can't find the word "tree" in etc/NEWS

Try NEWS.29, if your clone of the Git repository has such a file
(which would mean you are tracking the master branch).

I do not use branches, only master.

Thanks. I understand instruction is for people who know how to link
it, but I don't.

I got these after compiling:

  -rw-r--r-- 1 476K Dec 28 11:32 parser.o
  -rw-r--r-- 1 6.7K Dec 28 11:32 scanner.o

How do I link them?

gcc -shared maybe, but I know gcc just like you know Org.

I don't know exactly how to do that on your system, and don't want to
get you in trouble with stuff you aren't familiar with.  Sorry.
Perhaps someone else will be able to help.

(In general, if you don't know how to build a shared library on your
system, my recommendation would be to wait for your distro to offer
these grammar libraries ready to install.  No disaster will happen if
you delay experiencing tree-sitter and the features it supports until
your distro provides that.)

Of course I will not wait, it would defeat purpose of the question.

I will find way.
