building emacs from source with user-specific tree-sitter

gistfile1.txt

# XXX: draft

# user-specific tree-sitter installation is doable via use of PREFIX
# assuming so...

cd ~/src
git clone https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs emacs-30.2
cd ~/src/emacs-30.2
git checkout emacs-30.2

TREE_SITTER_CFLAGS=-I$HOME/.local/include \
TREE_SITTER_LIBS="-L$HOME/.local/lib -ltree-sitter" \
./configure --prefix=$HOME/.local \
            --with-cairo \
            --with-tree-sitter \
            --with-gnutls=ifavailable

# may need following during build as well
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/.local/lib

# adjust number as appropriate
make -j 4

# failed so tried
make bootstrap

# was in original instructions
#LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/.local/lib make install
#make install

# may be runnable "in-place"
./src/emacs

# made a symlink to ~/src/emacs-30.2/src/emacs and trying it out...

# following needed for running:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/.local/lib
