What is acorn-node?

The acorn-node package is an extension of the popular Acorn JavaScript parser, tailored specifically for Node.js environments. It includes additional support for parsing Node.js-specific syntax and features, making it an ideal choice for developers working on Node.js applications who need to analyze or manipulate JavaScript code programmatically.

What are acorn-node's main functionalities?

Parsing JavaScript

This feature allows you to parse a string of JavaScript code into an abstract syntax tree (AST), which can then be analyzed or manipulated. This is useful for tools that need to understand or transform JavaScript code.

const { parse } = require('acorn-node');
const AST = parse('const x = 1;');

Node.js Syntax Support

acorn-node extends Acorn to support Node.js-specific syntax, such as the `require` function. This makes it particularly useful for analyzing or transforming Node.js codebases.

const { parse } = require('acorn-node');
const AST = parse('require("path");', { ecmaVersion: 2020 });
