What is this?

This package applies some transforms to a given estree to make it compatible with unist. It:

• makes sure nodes are plain JSON
• adds unist positions
• normalizes .bigint
• remove attributes, selfClosing from JSXOpeningFragment
• removes certain discouraged fields

When should I use this?

The transform applied by this utility is often optional: estrees can be used in most places where esast can be used, and vice versa. But, if you come from a unist background and want to deal with JavaScript, or want to use unist utilities with JavaScript, this helps a lot.

Install

This package is ESM onlyesm. In Node.js (version 14.14+ and 16.0+), install with npm:

npm install esast-util-from-estree

In Deno with esm.shesmsh:

import {fromEstree} from 'https://esm.sh/esast-util-from-estree@1'

In browsers with esm.shesmsh:

<script type="module">
  import {fromEstree} from 'https://esm.sh/esast-util-from-estree@1?bundle'
</script>

Use

import {parse} from 'acorn'
import {fromEstree} from 'esast-util-from-estree'

// Make acorn support comments and positional info.
const comments = []
const esast = parse(
  'export function x() { /* Something senseless */ console.log(/(?:)/ + 1n) }',
  {sourceType: 'module', locations: true, onComment: comments}
)
esast.comments = comments

console.log(fromEstree(esast))

Yields:

{
  type: 'Program',
  body: [
    {
      type: 'ExportNamedDeclaration',
      declaration: [Object],
      specifiers: [],
      source: null,
      position: [Object]
    }
  ],
  sourceType: 'module',
  comments: [
    {
      type: 'Block',
      value: ' Something senseless ',
      position: [Object]
    }
  ],
  position: {
    start: {line: 1, column: 1, offset: 0},
    end: {line: 1, column: 75, offset: 74}
  }
}
