@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-json
@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-json
is a parser adapter for the JSON format.
CST produced by lexical analysis is syntactically analyzed and
ApiDOM structure using base ApiDOM namespace is produced.
Installation
After prerequisites for installing this package are satisfied, you can install it
via npm CLI by running the following command:
$ npm install @swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-json
Parse phases
The parse stage takes JSON string and produces ApiDOM structure using base ApiDOM namespace.
There are two phases of parsing: Lexical Analysis and Syntactic Analysis.
Lexical Analysis
Lexical Analysis will take a JSON string and turn it into a stream of tokens.
tree-sitter / web-tree-sitter is used as an underlying lexical analyzer.
Syntactic Analysis
Syntactic Analysis will take a stream of tokens and turn it into an ApiDOM representation.
CST produced by lexical analysis is syntactically analyzed
and ApiDOM structure using base ApiDOM namespace is produced.
This analysis directly turns tree-sitter CST into ApiDOM. Single traversal is required which makes
it super performant, and it's the default analysis used.
import { parse } from '@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-json';
const parseResult = await parse('{"prop": "value"}', {
syntacticAnalysis: 'direct',
});
This analysis turns trees-sitter CST into JSON AST representation.
Then JSON AST is turned into ApiDOM. Two traversals are required, which makes indirect analysis less performant than direct one.
Thought less performant, having JSON AST representation allows us to do further complex analysis.
import { parse } from '@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-json';
const parseResult = await parse('{"prop": "value"}', {
syntacticAnalysis: 'indirect',
});
Parser adapter API
This parser adapter is fully compatible with parser adapter interface required by @swagger-api/apidom-parser
and implements all required properties.
mediaTypes
Defines list of media types that this parser adapter recognizes.
['application/json']
detect
Detection is based on using JSON.parse to indicate whether the provided source string is or isn't JSON string.
namespace
This adapter exposes an instance of base ApiDOM namespace.
parse
parse
function consumes various options as a second argument. Here is a list of these options:
Option | Type | Default | Description |
---|
sourceMap | Boolean | false | Indicate whether to generate source maps. |
syntacticAnalysis | String | direct | Indicate type of syntactic analysis |
All unrecognized arbitrary options will be ignored.
Usage
This parser adapter can be used directly or indirectly via @swagger-api/apidom-parser.
Direct usage
During direct usage you don't need to provide mediaType
as the parse
function is already pre-bound
with supported media types.
import { parse, detect } from '@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-json';
await detect('{"prop": "value"}');
await detect('test');
const parseResult = await parse('{"prop": "value"}', { sourceMap: true });
Indirect usage
You can omit the mediaType
option here, but please read Word on detect vs mediaTypes before you do so.
import ApiDOMParser from '@swagger-api/apidom-parser';
import * as jsonParserAdapter from '@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-json';
const parser = new ApiDOMParser();
parser.use(jsonParserAdapter);
const parseResult = await parser.parse('{"prop", "value"}', { mediaType: jsonParserAdapter.mediaTypes.latest('json') });
