maps JavaScript Identifier AST nodes to/from their corresponding definition nodes
defnode is a node.js package that maps JavaScript Identifier AST nodes to/from their corresponding definition nodes. It is useful in tools that perform JavaScript source introspection.
For example, suppose we have the following code.
function a(b) {
var c = 1, d;
}
defnode maps the following Identifier/definition pairs:
a to/from the enclosing FunctionDeclaration nodeb to/from itself (since its Identifier node is its own declaration)c to/from its VariableDeclarator noded to/from its VariableDeclarator nodedefnode uses marijnh/tern, but it should work with any SpiderMonkey API-compliant JavaScript AST.
