3. 3 - Introduce the AST - Create babel plugin Index
4. 4 What’s an AST
5. 5 Abstract Syntax Tree (抽象構文木)
6. 6 What’s an AST An AST is the result of parsing source code. A tree data structure which extracted necessary information from the source code DOM Tree is one of them Used for analysis and processing the source code It’s using by the compiler and interpreter
7. 7 It seems difficult...
8. 8 JavaScript AST
9. 9 JavaScript AST is not difficult We can use AST easily in JavaScript What’s a JavaScript AST?
10. 10 Just a JavaScript Object which displays an architecture of code What’s a JavaScript AST?
11. 11 ESTree de facto standard Parser Acorn Esprima Babylon: used by Babel, Acorn based Espree: used by ESLint, Acorn based What’s a JavaScript AST?
12. 12 AST Flow Source Code AST New AST New Source Code parser traverser generator
13. 13 Useful Tool AST Explorer
14. 14 Let’s create a babel plugin
15. 15 Create a babel plugin transform function take care the parser, traverser and generator. $ npm i -S @babel/core const { transform } = require("babel-core"); index.js
16. 16 Replace var with const
17. 17 Create a babel plugin index.js const { transform } = require("babel-core"); const src = "var foo = 'foooooo'" const plugin = ({ types }) => ({ visitor: { VariableDeclaration: nodePath => { if (nodePath.node.kind === "var") { nodePath.node.kind = "const"; } } } }); const { code } = transform(src, { plugins: [plugin] }); console.log(code); // -> const foo = 'foooooo'
18. 18 That’s all
19. 19 const { transform } = require("babel-core"); const src = "var foo = 'foooooo'" const plugin = ({ types }) => ({ visitor: { VariableDeclaration: nodePath => { if (nodePath.node.kind === "var") { nodePath.node.kind = "const"; } } } }); const { code } = transform(src, { plugins: [plugin] }); console.log(code); // -> const foo = 'foooooo' Create babel plugin index.js Original source code Generated source code
20. 20 const { transform } = require("babel-core"); const src = "var foo = 'foooooo'" const plugin = ({ types }) => ({ visitor: { VariableDeclaration: nodePath => { if (nodePath.node.kind === "var") { nodePath.node.kind = "const"; } } } }); const { code } = transform(src, { plugins: [plugin] }); console.log(code); // -> const foo = 'foooooo' Create babel plugin index.js Call transform function with src and defined plugin
21. 21 const { transform } = require("babel-core"); const src = "var foo = 'foooooo'" const plugin = ({ types }) => ({ visitor: { VariableDeclaration: nodePath => { if (nodePath.node.kind === "var") { nodePath.node.kind = "const"; } } } }); const { code } = transform(src, { plugins: [plugin] }); console.log(code); // -> const foo = 'foooooo' Create babel plugin index.js Kind of visitor pattern
22. 22 Create babel plugin index.js const { transform } = require("babel-core"); const src = "var foo = 'foooooo'" const plugin = ({ types }) => ({ visitor: { VariableDeclaration: nodePath => { if (nodePath.node.kind === "var") { nodePath.node.kind = "const"; } } } }); const { code } = transform(src, { plugins: [plugin] }); console.log(code); // -> const foo = 'foooooo' Kind of visitor pattern This function will be fired when this label is found in the AST
23. 23 Understand, but how to write it?
24. 24 Useful Tools AST Explorer
25. 25 Create babel plugin
26. 26 Create babel plugin var foo = 'foooooo'
27. 27 Create babel plugin var foo = 'foooooo'
28. 28 Create babel plugin index.js const { transform } = require("babel-core"); const src = "var foo = 'foooooo'" const plugin = ({ types }) => ({ visitor: { VariableDeclaration: nodePath => { if (nodePath.node.kind === "var") { nodePath.node.kind = "const"; } } } }); const { code } = transform(src, { plugins: [plugin] }); console.log(code); // -> const foo = 'foooooo'
