Talk Parsing, Compiling, and Static Metaprogramming at JSConfEU 2013 by Patrick Dubroy.

Esprima Examples

• checkstyle.coffee and logging.coffee contain the original source code for the style checker and logging examples presented in the talk.
• checkstyle.js and logging.js are the slightly simplified JS versions that were shown in the talk.
• syntax-highlight.js is taken from the Esprima tutorial Chapter 3. Lexical Analysis (Tokenization)¶

PEG.js Example

altjs.coffee is the code for the "AltJS language in 5 minutes" section presented in the second half of the talk.

Extra Special Bonus!

idgrep.coffee (and idgrep.js) is another example of using Esprima to do static analysis on JavaScript code.

REPL example

> esprima = require('esprima')
{ parse: [Function: parse],
  parseModule: [Function: parseModule],
  parseScript: [Function: parseScript],
  tokenize: [Function: tokenize],
  Syntax: 
   { ... },
  version: '4.0.1' }

> esprima.tokenize('answer = 42', { range: true })
[ { type: 'Identifier', value: 'answer', range: [ 0, 6 ] },
  { type: 'Punctuator', value: '=', range: [ 7, 8 ] },
  { type: 'Numeric', value: '42', range: [ 9, 11 ] } ]

> esprima.parseScript('const answer = 42', { tokens: true })
Script {
  type: 'Program',
  body: 
   [ VariableDeclaration {
       type: 'VariableDeclaration',
       declarations: [Array],
       kind: 'const' } ],
  sourceType: 'script',
  tokens: 
   [ { type: 'Keyword', value: 'const' },
     { type: 'Identifier', value: 'answer' },
     { type: 'Punctuator', value: '=' },
     { type: 'Numeric', value: '42' } ] }

> inspect = require('util')
{ ... }

> console.log(util.inspect(esprima.parseScript('answer = 42'), {depth: null}))
Script {
  type: 'Program',
  body: 
   [ ExpressionStatement {
       type: 'ExpressionStatement',
       expression: 
        AssignmentExpression {
          type: 'AssignmentExpression',
          operator: '=',
          left: Identifier { type: 'Identifier', name: 'answer' },
