Function: treesit--build-grammar
treesit--build-grammar is a byte-compiled function defined in
treesit.el.gz.
Signature
(treesit--build-grammar WORKDIR OUT-DIR LANG SOURCE-DIR CC C++)
Documentation
Compile a tree-sitter language grammar library.
WORKDIR is the cloned repo's directory. OUT-DIR is the directory to put the compiled library file. If it is nil, the "tree-sitter" directory under user's Emacs configuration directory is used (and automatically created if it does not exist).
For LANG, SOURCE-DIR, CC, C++, see treesit-language-source-alist.
If anything goes wrong, this function signals an treesit-error.
