+Treesitter Query Predicates *lua-treesitter-predicates*
+
+When writing queries for treesitter, one might use `predicates`, that is,
+special scheme nodes that are evaluted to verify things on a captured node for
+example, the |eq?| predicate : >
+ ((identifier) @foo (#eq? @foo "foo"))
+
+This will only match identifier corresponding to the `"foo"` text.
+Here is a list of built-in predicates :
+
+ `eq?` *ts-predicate-eq?*
+ This predicate will check text correspondance between nodes or
+ strings : >
+ ((identifier) @foo (#eq? @foo "foo"))
+ ((node1) @left (node2) @right (#eq? @left @right))
+<
+ `match?` *ts-predicate-match?*
+ This will match if the provived lua regex matches the text
+ corresponding to a node : >
+ ((idenfitier) @constant (#match? @constant "^[A-Z_]+$"))
+< Note: the `^` and `$` anchors will respectively match the
+ start and end of the node's text.
+
+ `vim-match?` *ts-predicate-vim-match?*
+ This will match the same way than |match?| but using vim
+ regexes.
+
+ `contains?` *ts-predicate-contains?*
+ Will check if any of the following arguments appears in the
+ text corresponding to the node : >
+ ((identifier) @foo (#contains? @foo "foo"))
+ ((identifier) @foo-bar (#contains @foo-bar "foo" "bar"))
+<
+ *lua-treesitter-not-predicate*
+Each predicate has a `not-` prefixed predicate that is just the negation of
+the predicate.
+
+ *vim.treesitter.query.add_predicate()*
+vim.treesitter.query.add_predicate({name}, {handler})
+
+This adds a predicate with the name {name} to be used in queries.
+{handler} should be a function whose signature will be : >
+ handler(match, pattern, bufnr, predicate)
