tree-sitter requires Emacs 25.1 or above, built with dynamic module support. Some Emacs distributions have this disabled by default. To check whether your Emacs has dynamic module support enabled, try evaluating one of these:
(functionp 'module-load) ; should be t
module-file-suffix ; should be non-nil
Upon byte compilation and first load, the package tree-sitter (tsc) will try to obtain the dynamic module using 2 mechanisms:
This behavior can be customized by setting the variable tsc-dyn-get-from, before tree-sitter (tsc) is byte-compiled/loaded. Its default value is (:github :compilation). For example, you should set it to (:compilation) if you don’t want to download binaries from GitHub.
Run M-x package-refresh-contents.
