< p > Helix's editing model is strongly inspired from vim and kakoune, and a notable
difference from vim (and the most striking similarity to kakoune) is that Helix
follows the < code > selection → action< / code > model. This means that the whatever you are
going to act on (a word, a paragraph, a line, etc) is selected first and the
action itself (delete, change, yank, etc) comes second. A cursor is simply a
single width selection.< / p >

< p > Language-specific settings and settings for particular language servers can be configured in a < code > languages.toml< / code > file placed in your < a href = "./configuration.html" > configuration directory< / a > . Helix actually uses two < code > languages.toml< / code > files, the < a href = "https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/blob/master/languages.toml" > first one< / a > is in the main helix repository; it contains the default settings for each language and is included in the helix binary at compile time. Users who want to see the available settings and options can either reference the helix repo's < code > languages.toml< / code > file, or consult the table in the < a href = "./guides/adding_languages.html" > adding languages< / a > section.< / p >
< p > Changes made to the < code > languages.toml< / code > file in a user's < a href = "./configuration.html" > configuration directory< / a > are merged with helix's defaults on start-up, such that a user's settings will take precedence over defaults in the event of a collision. For example, the default < code > languages.toml< / code > sets rust's < code > auto-format< / code > to < code > true< / code > . If a user wants to disable auto-format, they can change the < code > languages.toml< / code > in their < a href = "./configuration.html" > configuration directory< / a > to make the rust entry read like the example below; the new key/value pair < code > auto-format = false< / code > will override the default when the two sets of settings are merged on start-up:< / p >

< p > To add a new language, you should first add a tree-sitter submodule. To do this,
you can run the command< / p >
< pre > < code class = "language-sh" > git submodule add -f < repository> helix-syntax/languages/tree-sitter-< name>
< / code > < / pre >
< p > For example, to add tree-sitter-ocaml you would run< / p >
< pre > < code class = "language-sh" > git submodule add -f https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-ocaml helix-syntax/languages/tree-sitter-ocaml
< / code > < / pre >
< p > Make sure the submodule is shallow by doing< / p >
< pre > < code class = "language-sh" > git config -f .gitmodules submodule.helix-syntax/languages/tree-sitter-< name> .shallow true
< / code > < / pre >
< p > or you can manually add < code > shallow = true< / code > to < code > .gitmodules< / code > .< / p >
< h2 id = "languagestoml" > < a class = "header" href = "#languagestoml" > languages.toml< / a > < / h2 >
< p > Next, you need to add the language to the < a href = "https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/blob/master/languages.toml" > < code > languages.toml< / code > < / a > found in the root of
the repository; this < code > languages.toml< / code > file is included at compilation time, and
is distinct from the < code > language.toml< / code > file in the user's < a href = "guides/../configuration.html" > configuration

< p > For a language to have syntax-highlighting and indentation among other things, you have to add queries. Add a directory for your language with the path < code > runtime/queries/< name> /< / code > . The tree-sitter < a href = "https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/syntax-highlighting#queries" > website< / a > gives more info on how to write queries.< / p >

< p > If you get errors when building after switching branches, you may have to remove or update tree-sitter submodules. You can update submodules by running< / p >
< pre > < code class = "language-sh" > git submodule sync; git submodule update --init
< / code > < / pre >
< / li >

< p > Make sure to not use the < code > --remote< / code > flag. To remove submodules look inside the < code > .gitmodules< / code > and remove directories that are not present inside of it.< / p >

< p > Textobjects that are language specific (< a href = "guides/../usage.html#textobjects" > like functions, classes, etc< / a > )
require an accompanying tree-sitter grammar and a < code > textobjects.scm< / code > query file
to work properly. Tree-sitter allows us to query the source code syntax tree
and capture specific parts of it. The queries are written in a lisp dialect.
More information on how to write queries can be found in the < a href = "https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/using-parsers#query-syntax" > official tree-sitter
documentation< / a > .< / p >
< p > Query files should be placed in < code > runtime/queries/{language}/textobjects.scm< / code >
when contributing. Note that to test the query files locally you should put
them under your local runtime directory (< code > ~/.config/helix/runtime< / code > on Linux
for example).< / p >
