escope

Escope (escope) is ECMAScript scope analyzer extracted from esmangle project.

Example

var escope = require('escope');
var esprima = require('esprima');
var estraverse = require('estraverse');

var ast = esprima.parse(code);
var scopeManager = escope.analyze(ast);

var currentScope = scopeManager.acquire(ast);   // global scope

estraverse.traverse(ast, {
    enter: function(node, parent) {
        // do stuff
        
        if (/Function/.test(node.type)) {
            currentScope = scopeManager.acquire(node);  // get current function scope
        }
    },
    leave: function(node, parent) {
        if (/Function/.test(node.type)) {
            currentScope = currentScope.upper;  // set to parent scope
        }
        
        // do stuff
    }
});
