php-ts-mode

A Tree-sitter based major mode for editing PHP codes.

Note

This package is based on Emacs 29's built-in treesit and c-ts-common features.
php-ts-mode has been tested with v0.21.1 of tree-sitter-php.

How to install

If you haven't installed Tree-sitter yet, please read How to Get Started with Tree-Sitter - Mastering Emacs. At this point, Tree-sitter may be too early for those who cannot compile and install it themselves. You will end up recompiling it with every future update of tree-sitter-php.

Grammer installation

If you don't already have php-ts-mode installed, please evaluate the Lisp code below.

(add-to-list 'treesit-language-source-alist
             '(php "https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-php" "master" "php/src"))

Running M-x treesit-install-language-grammar [RET] php will compile and install the latest tree-sitter-php.

Settings

Syntax highlighting

In php-ts-mode, syntax elements are classified as follows.

• Level 3: function constant label
• Level 4: bracket delimiter operator variables

By default, up to Level 3 will be highlighted.

How to develop

1. Chekout tree-sitter-php to your computer.
2. Do make install
