Struct Symbol 

pub struct Symbol {
    pub id: String,
    pub name: String,
    pub kind: String,
    pub is_definition: bool,
    pub file: String,
    pub line: usize,
    pub col: usize,
    pub start_byte: usize,
    pub end_byte: usize,
    pub signature: String,
    pub parent: Option<String>,
}

A definition or reference extracted from a file.

Fields

id: String

Stable handle: <lang>:<relpath>#<name>@<line> (line is 1-based). Survives across turns.

name: String

kind: String

e.g. function, method, class, call — from the grammar’s tag query.

is_definition: bool

file: String

line: usize

1-based line and column of the name — the editor / grep -n convention, so a citation printed as “line N” lands on the right line. (tree-sitter’s own Point is 0-based; we normalize here. The byte range below, not these, is what source slices.)

col: usize

start_byte: usize

Byte range of the whole symbol (what source slices).

end_byte: usize

signature: String

The trimmed source line containing the name — a compact signature.

parent: Option<String>

The owning container — the impl type, trait, class, or module.

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for Symbol

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Serialize for Symbol

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.
