Package Exports
- estree-toolkit
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (estree-toolkit) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

estree-toolkit
Tools for working with ESTree AST
Installation
npm i estree-toolkit
# or
yarn add estree-toolkit
Basic operations
Traversing an AST
const { traverse } = require('estree-toolkit');
traverse(ast, {
Program(path) {
// Do something with the path
}
});
Building Nodes
const { builders: b } = require('estree-toolkit');
b.identifier('x'); // => { type: 'Identifier', name: 'x' }
Checking node types
const { traverse, is } = require('estree-toolkit');
const { parseModule } = require('meriyah');
const ast = parseModule(`x = 0`);
traverse(ast, {
AssignmentExpression(path) {
if (is.identifier(path.node.left, { name: 'x' })) {
// `left` is an identifier with name `x`
}
}
});
Replacing a node
const { traverse, builders: b } = require('estree-toolkit');
const { parseModule } = require('meriyah');
const ast = parseModule('a = b');
traverse(ast, {
Identifier(path) {
if (path.node.name === 'a') {
path.replaceWith(b.identifier('c'));
}
}
});
// Now the AST represents - `c = b`
Collecting scope information
const { traverse } = require('estree-toolkit');
traverse(ast, {
// Enable scope
$: { scope: true },
Program(path) {
// `path.scope` is now available in all paths
}
});
Checking if a binding is available
const { traverse } = require('estree-toolkit');
const { parseModule } = require('meriyah');
const ast = parseModule(`
import { a } from 'source';
const { b, c: [d, { e }] } = a;
`);
traverse(ast, {
$: { scope: true },
Program(path) {
path.scope.hasBinding('a') // => true
path.scope.hasBinding('b') // => true
path.scope.hasBinding('c') // => false
path.scope.hasBinding('d') // => true
path.scope.hasBinding('e') // => true
}
});
Getting all references of a binding
const { traverse } = require('estree-toolkit');
const { parseModule } = require('meriyah');
const ast = parseModule(`
import { a } from 'source';
fn(a);
s = a;
let obj = { a };
`);
traverse(ast, {
$: { scope: true },
Program(path) {
// Returns all the paths that reference the binding `a`
path.scope.getBinding('a').references // => [NodePath, NodePath, NodePath]
}
});
Checking if a global have been used
const { traverse } = require('estree-toolkit');
const { parseModule } = require('meriyah');
const ast = parseModule(`
const fx = require('fx-mod');
`);
traverse(ast, {
$: { scope: true },
Program(path) {
path.hasGlobalBinding('require') // => true
}
});
Utilities
There are several static utilities that you can use.
evaluate
Evaluates the given path. For now it only supports evaluation of logical, binary and unary operations.const { utils: u } = require('estree-toolkit'); // We are using `meriyah` but you can use any parser (like `acorn`) const { parseModule } = require('meriyah'); traverse(parseModule(`1 + 2`), { BinaryExpression(path) { u.evaluate(path) // => { value: 3 } } }); traverse(parseModule(`1 === 2`), { BinaryExpression(path) { u.evaluate(path) // => { value: false } } }); traverse(parseModule(`iDoNotKnowWhatThisIs === 55`), { BinaryExpression(path) { u.evaluate(path) // => undefined } });
evaluateTruthy
Evaluates the path for truthiness and returnstrue
,false
orundefined
depending on evaluation result.hasBinding
Checks if any binding with the name is available in the containing scope.const { utils: u } = require('estree-toolkit'); const { parseModule } = require('meriyah'); const ast = parseModule(` { let a; { id1; } } id2; `); traverse(ast, { Identifier(path) { if (path.node.name === 'id1') { u.hasBinding(path, 'a') // => true } else if (path.node.name === 'id2') { u.hasBinding(path, 'a') // => false } } });
More documentation
This project provides built-in TypeScript definitions with documentation, so you get good editor experience with this project (if you are using editors like VS Code or WebStorm), just hover on any method to view the method's documentation with examples.
