CodeInspector

Dependencies free static analysis of your code. Understands JavaScript (JSX, TypeScript). Demo here.

Installation

It's on npm so npm i code-inspector or yarn add code-inspector will do the trick.

The library works in a browser too. It's of course a bit heavy. There is a client-side bundle here unpkg.com/code-inspector@latest/browser/code-inspector.js. Once you load the file you'll have a CodeInspector global variable available.

Usage

Assume that we have the following code:

// code.js
function print(name) {
  const format = str => str.toUpperCase();
  console.log(format(name));
}

And we run it through the inspector's analyze method:

import CodeInspector from 'code-inspector';
 
const analysis = CodeInspector.analyze(code);
console.log(JSON.stringify(analysis))

The result will be:

How it works

It is based on @babel/traverse, @babel/parser, and @babel/types. It gets your code and traverses the AST tree normalizing the nodes.

API

Code inspector exposes the following methods:

  • analyze - Analyzes the providing code.
  • sort - Sorts nodes by their starting position.
  • isVariable - Accepts a node and returns true or false if the node represents a variable.
export function analyze(code: string): Analysis;
export function sort(nodes: NormalizedNode[]): NormalizedNode[];
export function isVariable(node: NormalizedNode): boolean;

export interface Analysis {
  ast: any;
  nodes: NormalizedNode[];
  scopes: NormalizedNode[];
  variables: NormalizedNode[];
}

export interface NormalizedNode {
  text: string | number | boolean;
  type: string;
  key?: string;
  start?: [number | undefined, number | undefined];
  end?: [number | undefined, number | undefined];
  left?: string | number | boolean;
  right?: string | number | boolean;
  nesting?: number;
}
