What is node-source-walk?

The node-source-walk package is a tool for traversing the abstract syntax tree (AST) of JavaScript code. It allows developers to analyze and manipulate the source code by providing an easy way to walk through the tree structure generated from the code.

What are node-source-walk's main functionalities?

Walking the AST of JavaScript code

This feature allows you to walk through the AST of a given JavaScript code snippet and perform actions based on the type of node encountered. In the code sample, the function logs a message whenever it encounters a variable declaration.

const walk = require('node-source-walk');

const sourceCode = 'var x = 1; console.log(x);';

walk(sourceCode, function(node) {
  if (node.type === 'VariableDeclaration') {
    console.log('Found a variable declaration!');
  }
});

Support for different parsers

node-source-walk supports various parsers like Esprima, Acorn, and Babel. This allows for flexibility in handling different JavaScript syntaxes, including experimental features and JSX. The code sample demonstrates how to specify a custom parser and its options.

const walk = require('node-source-walk');
const babelParser = require('@babel/parser');

const sourceCode = 'let x = 1;';

walk(sourceCode, {
  parser: babelParser,
  parserOptions: {
    sourceType: 'module',
    plugins: ['jsx']
  }
}, function(node) {
  // Analyze the node
});
