Package description

What is @swc/types?

The @swc/types package provides TypeScript type definitions for the AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) nodes used by SWC, a super-fast compiler written in Rust. It is primarily used by developers working on tooling for JavaScript and TypeScript, such as linters, formatters, and compilers. By offering a structured way to represent code, it enables programmatic analysis, manipulation, and generation of JavaScript and TypeScript code.

What are @swc/types's main functionalities?

Defining AST Nodes

This code sample demonstrates how to define a simple AST node for a variable declaration in JavaScript using the types provided by @swc/types. It represents a variable `x` being declared and initialized with the value `10`.

{
  "type": "VariableDeclaration",
  "kind": "var",
  "declarations": [
    {
      "type": "VariableDeclarator",
      "id": {
        "type": "Identifier",
        "name": "x"
      },
      "init": {
        "type": "Literal",
        "value": 10,
        "raw": "10"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Manipulating AST Nodes

This function takes an AST node and, if it is a numeric literal, doubles its value. It showcases how @swc/types can be used to manipulate AST nodes programmatically.

function updateLiteralValue(node) {
  if (node.type === 'Literal' && typeof node.value === 'number') {
    node.value *= 2;
  }
  return node;
}

@swc/types

Typings for @swc/core APIs. This is a separate package because SWC is used by various tools but not all of them want to depend on @swc/core. This package is very cheap, so feel free to depend on this.
