Add scm file for Lua to enable repo map support

[hhn12138]

Issue

The document states that aider's tree-sitter supports the Lua language, but I cannot find the scm file for extracting Lua function blocks in the project's query directory. Could you please tell me where I can find the scm file for extracting Lua function blocks?

Version and model info

Thanks for trying aider and filing this issue.

Sorry, I'm not sure where to find the lua query scm file.

Is there something that isn't working well for you when using aider with lua? It should work fairly well even without the scm files.

@paul-gauthier Certainly! May I inquire as to why Tree-sitter does not necessitate an SCM file for the extraction of the repository map from the Lua code repository, and yet Aider is able to work without it?

[paul-gauthier]

Aider works fine with languages that don't have repo-map support. It may not work as well, but my suggestion is just to try and use aider and see rather than spending a bunch of effort up front worrying about repo-map support.

Please see these two related issues for relevant updates:

• Change tree sitter provider to updated fork with many added languages #3133
• py-tree-sitter-languages is unmaintained grep-ast#7

[paul-gauthier]

Main branch has a big upgrade in programming languages supported by adopting tree-sitter-language-pack.

• 130 new languages with linter support.
• 20 new languages with repo-map support.

Including Lua.

The change is available in the main branch. You can get it by installing the latest version from github:

aider --install-main-branch

# or...

python -m pip install --upgrade --upgrade-strategy only-if-needed git+https://github.com/Aider-AI/aider.git

If you have a chance to try it, let me know if it works for you.
