Helix has updated to 22.05 https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/releases/tag/22.05

Should the runtime/queries (https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/tree/master/runtime/queries) directory be included with the installation? Without this syntax highlighting does not work.

Currently /usr/lib64/helix/runtime contains grammars (after running helix --grammar fetch and helix --grammar build) but no queries directory.

I did try looking for a command in the Helix documentation similar to helix --grammar fetch to fetch the queries but it does not appear this exists.

Oh thanks. I forgot to update the specfile when I came across this issue https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/issues/2123#issuecomment-1121619464. I will rework the specfile to move runtime/queries in the helix package from helix-runtime

Soc Virnyl Estela's avatar

On second thought, I don't think I will move this... My idea to separate this was because to make a very plain helix editor without extra features, hence, no syntax-highlighting, no LSP definitions, and no grammars. If someone wants to have syntax highlighting, they need to install the helix-runtime package which bundles queries, LSP definitions and tree-sitter grammars.

Ahhhhh that's what I was missing!

Thank you so much!

I put Suggests in the spec so after installation, zypper will suggest the helix-runtime package. I don't really mind to change it to Recommends but some people are frugal on installations for a text editor. Oh well.

Submitted 23.03 yesterday. Lots of changes of the build configuration so I was bonking my head hard until I checked other build scripts from other distros. Looking forward to it in Factory :D

EDIT: oh lol it is now in factory :D

The helix-runtime does not require helix as a dependency

Soc Virnyl Estela's avatar
Soc Virnyl Estela (uncomfyhalomacro) -

i mean you can just helix -g fetch it. it's a recommends so it will be installed in default zypper configurations unless it's a container image e.g. in distrobox (podman)
