Catharsis

A JavaScript parser for Google Closure Compiler and JSDoc type expressions.

Catharsis is designed to be:

• Accurate. Catharsis is based on a PEG.js grammar that's designed to handle any valid type expression. It uses a thorough test suite to verify the parser's accuracy.
• Fast. Parse results are cached, so the parser is invoked only when necessary.
• Flexible. Catharsis can convert a parse result back into a type expression, or into a description of the type expression. In addition, Catharsis can parse JSDoc-style type expressions.

Example

const catharsis = require('catharsis');

// Closure Compiler parsing
const type = '!Object';
let parsedType;
try {
    parsedType = catharsis.parse(type); // {"type":"NameExpression,"name":"Object","nullable":false}
} catch(e) {
    console.error('unable to parse %s: %s', type, e);
}

// JSDoc-style type expressions enabled
const jsdocType = 'string[]';  // Closure Compiler expects Array.<string>
let parsedJsdocType;
try {
    parsedJsdocType = catharsis.parse(jsdocType, {jsdoc: true});
} catch (e) {
    console.error('unable to parse %s: %s', jsdocType, e);
}

// Converting parse results back to type expressions
catharsis.stringify(parsedType);                              // !Object
catharsis.stringify(parsedJsdocType);                         // string[]
catharsis.stringify(parsedJsdocType, {restringify: true});    // Array.<string>

// Converting parse results to descriptions of the type expression
catharsis.describe(parsedType).simple;                        // non-null Object
catharsis.describe(parsedJsdocType).simple;                   // Array of string

See the test/specs directory for more examples of Catharsis' parse results.

Methods

parse(typeExpression, options)

Parse a type expression, and return the parse results. Throws an error if the type expression cannot be parsed.

When called without options, Catharsis attempts to parse type expressions in the same way as Closure Compiler. When the jsdoc option is enabled, Catharsis can also parse several kinds of type expressions that are permitted in JSDoc:

• The string function is treated as a function type with no parameters.
• You can omit the period from type applications. For example, Array.<string> and Array<string> are parsed in the same way.
• If can append [] to a name expression (for example, string[]), it is interpreted as a type application with the expression Array (for example, Array.<string>).
• Name expressions can contain the characters #, ~, :, and /.
• Name expressions can contain a suffix that is similar to a function signature (for example, MyClass(foo, bar)).
• Name expressions can contain a reserved word.
• Record types can use types other than name expressions for keys.

Parameters

• type: A string containing a Closure Compiler type expression.
• options: Options for parsing the type expression.
  • options.jsdoc: Specifies whether to enable parsing of JSDoc-style type expressions. Defaults to false.
  • options.useCache: Specifies whether to use the cache of parsed types. Defaults to true.

Returns

An object containing the parse results. See the test/specs directory for examples of the parse results for different type expressions.

The object also includes two non-enumerable properties:

• jsdoc: A boolean that indicates whether the type expression was parsed with JSDoc support enabled.
• typeExpression: A string that contains the type expression that was parsed.

stringify(parsedType, options)

Stringify parsedType, and return the type expression. If validation is enabled, throws an error if the stringified type expression cannot be parsed.

Parameters

• parsedType: An object containing a parsed Closure Compiler type expression.
• options: Options for stringifying the parse results.
  • options.cssClass: Synonym for options.linkClass. Deprecated in version 0.8.0; will be removed in a future version.
  • options.htmlSafe: Specifies whether to return an HTML-safe string that replaces left angle brackets (<) with the corresponding entity (<). Note: Characters in name expressions are not escaped.
  • options.linkClass: A CSS class to add to HTML links. Used only if options.links is provided. By default, no CSS class is added.
  • options.links: An object or map whose keys are name expressions and whose values are URIs. If a name expression matches a key in options.links, the name expression will be wrapped in an HTML <a> tag that links to the URI. If you also specify options.linkClass, the <a> tag includes a class attribute. Note: When using this option, parsed types are always restringified, and the resulting string is not cached.
  • options.restringify: Forces Catharsis to restringify the parsed type. If this option is not specified, and the parsed type object includes a typeExpression property, Catharsis returns the typeExpression property without modification when possible. Defaults to false.
  • options.useCache: Specifies whether to use the cache of stringified type expressions. Defaults to true.
  • options.validate: Specifies whether to validate the stringified parse results by attempting to parse them as a type expression. If the stringified results are not parsable with the default options, you must also provide the appropriate options to pass to the parse() method. Defaults to false.

Returns

A string containing the type expression.

describe(parsedType, options)

Convert a parsed type to a description of the type expression. This method is especially useful if your users are not familiar with the syntax for type expressions.

The describe() method returns the description in two formats:

• Simple format. A string that provides a complete description of the type expression.
• Extended format. An object that separates out some of the details about the outermost type expression, such as whether the type is optional, nullable, or repeatable.

For example, when you call describe('?function(new:MyObject, string)='), the method returns the following data:

{
  simple: 'optional nullable function(constructs MyObject, string)',
  extended: {
    description: 'function(string)',
    modifiers: {
      functionNew: 'Returns MyObject when called with new.',
      functionThis: '',
      optional: 'Optional.',
      nullable: 'May be null.',
      repeatable: ''
    },
    returns: ''
  }
}

Parameters

• parsedType: An object containing a parsed Closure Compiler type expression.
• options: Options for creating the description.
  • options.codeClass: A CSS class to add to the tag that is wrapped around type names. Used only if you specify options.codeTag. By default, no CSS class is added.
  • options.codeTag: The name of an HTML tag (for example, code) to wrap around type names. For example, if this option is set to code, the type expression Array.<string> would have the simple description <code>Array</code> of <code>string</code>.
  • options.language: A string identifying the language in which to generate the description. The identifier should be an ISO 639-1 language code (for example, en). It can optionally be followed by a hyphen and an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code (for example, en-US). If you use values other than en, you must provide translation resources in options.resources. Defaults to en.
  • options.linkClass: A CSS class to add to HTML links. Used only if options.links is provided. By default, no CSS class is added.
  • options.links: An object or map whose keys are name expressions and whose values are URIs. If a name expression matches a key in options.links, the name expression will be wrapped in an HTML <a> tag that links to the URI. If you also specify options.linkClass, the <a> tag includes a class attribute. Note: When you use this option, the description is not cached.
  • options.resources: An object that specifies how to describe type expressions for a given language. The object's property names should use the same format as options.language. Each property should contain an object in the same format as the translation resources in res/en.json. If you specify a value for options.resources.en, that value overrides the defaults in res/en.json.
  • options.useCache: Specifies whether to use the cache of descriptions. Defaults to true.

Returns

An object with the following properties:

• simple: A string that provides a complete description of the type expression.
• extended: An object containing details about the outermost type expression.
  • extended.description: A string that provides a basic description of the type expression, excluding the information contained in other properties.
  • extended.modifiers: Information about modifiers that apply to the type expression.
    • extended.modifiers.functionNew: A string that describes what a function returns when called with new. Returned only for function types.
    • extended.modifiers.functionThis: A string that describes what the keyword this refers to within a function. Returned only for function types.
    • extended.modifiers.nullable: A string that indicates whether the type is nullable or non-nullable.
    • extended.modifiers.optional: A string that indicates whether the type is optional.
    • extended.modifiers.repeatable: A string that indicates whether the type can be repeated.
  • extended.returns: A string that describes the function's return value. Returned only for function types.
