# tree-sitter-hcl
tree-sitter grammar for the [HCL](https://github.com/hashicorp/hcl/blob/main/hclsyntax/spec.md) language
## Example
Highlighting `example/example.hcl`:

## Developing
It is recommended to use `nix` to fulfill all development dependencies. To activate the development environment simply run `nix-shell` in the project root.
## Running Tests
To run tests simply run `nix-shell --run 'tree-sitter test'`.
## Compliance
The directory `example/real_world_stuff` contains a corpus of hcl files that I found with the github query `language:HCL` for users `coreos`, `hashicorp`, `oracle` and `terraform-community-modules`.
Given that some language features are still missing ( see TODO ) there are some expected parse errors:
```bash
tree-sitter parse --quiet --stat example/real_world_stuff/*/*
example/real_world_stuff/oracle/oracle%opengrok%opengrok-indexer%src%test%resources%analysis%terraform%sample.tf 1 ms (ERROR [205, 8] - [214, 1])
Total parses: 2015; successful parses: 2014; failed parses: 1; success percentage: 99.95%
```
The aim is to build unit testcases from selected failure classes and slowly get to 100%.
## Todo
* [ ] use [Unicode® Standard Annex #31](https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr31/) (augmented with '-') for identifiers
* [ ] add [template expressions](https://github.com/hashicorp/hcl/blob/main/hclsyntax/spec.md#template-expressions)
* [x] add quoted templates
* [x] add quoted template interpolations
* [ ] add quoted template directives
* [x] add heredoc templates
