@es-joy/escodegen
Advanced tools
@es-joy/escodegen is a fork of escodegen.
@es-joy/escodegen (escodegen) is an
ECMAScript
(also popularly known as JavaScript)
code generator from Mozilla's Parser API
AST. See the online generator
for a demo.
Escodegen can be used in a web browser:
<script src="dist/escodegen-browser.umd.js"></script>
dist/escodegen-browser.umd.js can be found in tagged revisions on GitHub.
Or in a Node.js application via npm:
npm install @es-joy/escodegen
A simple example: the program
escodegen.generate({
type: 'BinaryExpression',
operator: '+',
left: { type: 'Literal', value: 40 },
right: { type: 'Literal', value: 2 }
});
produces the string '40 + 2'.
See the API page for
options. To run the tests, execute npm test in the root directory.
At first, execute npm install to install the all dev dependencies.
After that,
npm run build
will generate dist/escodegen-browser.umd.js, which can be used in
browser environments.
And,
npm run build-min
will generate the minified file escodegen.browser.min.js.
