Markdown Treesitter support with lazy.nvim

[joshmedeski]

I cannot figure out how to get markdown syntax highlighting with treesitter working in my setup.

This is my configuration for the plugin, using lazy.nvim:

return {
  "pwntester/octo.nvim",
  cmd = "Octo",
  dependencies = {
    "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",
    "nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim",
    "nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons",
    "nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter",
  },
  config = function()
    vim.cmd([[hi OctoEditable guibg=none]])
    vim.treesitter.language.register("markdown", "octo")
    require("octo").setup({ enable_builtin = true })
  end,
  keys = {
    { "<leader>o", "<cmd>Octo<cr>", desc = "Octo" },
  },
}

• I've moved vim.treesitter.language.register("markdown", "octo") with not success.
• I've called :TSBUfEnable markdown directly in a Octo buffer and nothing happens.

If anyone else has gotten markdown syntax highlighting working with lazy.nvim I'd appreciate some guidance.

I appreciate the help, thanks!

Hi Josh,

Beautiful theme in there! Have you tried clearing the OctoEditable hlgroup with hi OctoEditable guibg=none guifg=none? For reference, I register the FT alias after setting up TreeSitter

I spent the whole morning trying to figure it out. It was a combination of how octo gets the highlight groups for OctoEditable and some values set by my color scheme, catppuchin.

I ended up having to adjust the source code on both plugins to get it working properly with minimal configuration.

• Improve background color #425
• Octo updates catppuccin/nvim#589
