Rust Binding Fixes

This document summarizes the fixes applied to the Rust bindings to properly support tree-sitter-vento.

Summary

All Rust binding issues have been successfully resolved. The bindings now correctly reference Vento instead of the embedded-template boilerplate, package metadata is consistent across all configuration files, and all tests pass.

Status: ✅ Complete

Quick Overview of Changes:

  • ✅ Fixed bindings/rust/lib.rs - Updated function names, documentation, and examples for Vento
  • ✅ Rewrote bindings/rust/README.md - Complete documentation overhaul with Vento examples
  • ✅ Fixed package.json - Corrected package name and keywords
  • ✅ Fixed Cargo.toml - Updated version, authors format, and repository URL
  • ✅ All tests passing - Both Cargo tests and tree-sitter tests

Issues Fixed

1. Incorrect Function References in bindings/rust/lib.rs

Problem: The file contained boilerplate code from tree-sitter-embedded-template with incorrect function names and documentation.

Fixed:

  • Changed tree_sitter_embedded_template() to tree_sitter_vento()
  • Updated all documentation from ERB/EJS examples to Vento examples
  • Fixed copyright year from 2020 to 2024
  • Added proper Vento example code in documentation: 
    let code = r#"
---
title: Hello World
---
<h1>{{ title }}</h1>
{{ for item of items }}
  <p>{{ item }}</p>
{{ /for }}
"#;

Changes:

  • Fixed extern "C" function declaration
  • Fixed language() function to call correct external symbol
  • Updated all doc comments and examples
  • Fixed test assertion messages
  • Added constants for new query files (INJECTION_QUERY, LOCALS_QUERY)
  • Removed unnecessary 'static lifetime annotations (modern Rust style)
  • Fixed set_language() calls to use reference (&language())

2. Wrong Documentation in bindings/rust/README.md

Problem: The README was completely copied from tree-sitter-embedded-template with ERB/EJS examples.

Fixed: Completely rewrote the README with comprehensive documentation including:

Structure & Branding:

  • Added crates.io and docs.rs badges
  • Professional header with clear project description
  • Well-organized sections with clear hierarchy

Installation & Basic Usage:

  • Updated dependency versions (tree-sitter ~0.20, tree-sitter-vento 0.21)
  • Complete basic parsing example with proper error handling
  • Clear, runnable code examples

Advanced Usage Examples:

  • Query usage with syntax highlighting example
  • Tree walking with visitor pattern
  • Practical examples for finding variables
  • Parsing templates with front matter

Documentation of Features:

  • Comprehensive "About Vento" section explaining the template engine
  • Detailed "Grammar Features" section with checkmarks (✅)
  • Full list of available constants (GRAMMAR, HIGHLIGHT_QUERY, INJECTION_QUERY, LOCALS_QUERY, NODE_TYPES)
  • Feature explanations with code examples:
    • Full Syntax Support
    • YAML Front Matter
    • Language Injections (HTML, JavaScript, YAML)
    • Local Scoping for loop variables
    • Single-Character Variables

Integration & Resources:

  • Editor integration section (Neovim, Helix, Emacs, Zed)
  • Comprehensive resource links
  • Contributing guidelines
  • License information

Total Line Count: ~277 lines (previously ~36 lines) Code Examples: 7 complete, runnable examples (previously 1)

3. Package Metadata Inconsistencies

Problem: Inconsistent naming between package.json and Cargo.toml, incorrect repository URL, and malformed authors field.

Fixed in package.json:

  • Changed "name": "tree-sitter-better-vento" to "name": "tree-sitter-vento"
  • Updated keywords from ["parser", "json"] to ["parser", "vento", "template", "tree-sitter"]

Fixed in Cargo.toml:

  • Updated version from 0.20.0 to 0.21.0 to match package.json
  • Fixed authors format from: 
    authors = ["Matthew Taylor and Bob Rockefeller"]
    to proper TOML array format: 
    authors = [
    "Matthew Taylor",
    "Bob Rockefeller"
]
  • Changed repository from https://github.com/wrapperup/tree-sitter-vento to https://github.com/ventojs/tree-sitter-vento

Verification

All fixes have been verified:

✅ cargo check - Passes without errors ✅ cargo test - All tests pass including doctests ✅ tree-sitter test - All corpus tests pass ✅ No diagnostics errors in IDE/LSP

Testing

The following tests now pass:

  1. Unit test: tests::can_load_grammar - Verifies the grammar can be loaded
  2. Doc test: Example code in lib.rs documentation compiles and runs correctly
  3. Tree-sitter tests: All corpus tests pass with the updated bindings

API Changes

The public API remains the same, but now correctly references Vento:

use tree_sitter_vento;

// Get the language
let language = tree_sitter_vento::language();

// Access query constants
let highlights = tree_sitter_vento::HIGHLIGHT_QUERY;
let injections = tree_sitter_vento::INJECTION_QUERY;
let locals = tree_sitter_vento::LOCALS_QUERY;
let grammar = tree_sitter_vento::GRAMMAR;
let node_types = tree_sitter_vento::NODE_TYPES;

Breaking Changes

None - these are purely corrective changes to match the intended Vento implementation. The API surface remains identical.

Future Considerations

  • Consider updating Rust edition from 2018 to 2021 in a future release
  • The tree-sitter dependency uses >= 0.20 which is very permissive - consider tightening to ~0.20 or 0.20 for more predictable builds
  • Add more comprehensive doc tests demonstrating the injection and locals query usage
