mvdan-sh

This package is a JavaScript version of a shell package written in Go, available at https://github.com/mvdan/sh.

It is transpiled from Go to JS using a GopherJS fork, available at https://github.com/myitcv/gopherjs.

Sample usage

const sh = require('mvdan-sh')
const syntax = sh.syntax

var parser = syntax.NewParser()
var printer = syntax.NewPrinter()

var src = "echo 'foo'"
var f = parser.Parse(src, "src.sh")

// print out the syntax tree
syntax.DebugPrint(f)
console.log()

// replace all single quoted string values
syntax.Walk(f, function(node) {
        if (syntax.NodeType(node) == "SglQuoted") {
                node.Value = "bar"
        }
        return true
})

// print the code back out
console.log(printer.Print(f)) // echo 'bar'

You can find more samples in testmain.js.

Available APIs

The APIs listed below are wrapped to be usable in JavaScript. Follow the links to read their documentation.

Constructor options like syntax.KeepComments are also available.

The original io.Reader parameters can take a string or a stream.Readable object. io.Writer parameters are replaced by string returns.

The nodes you will find in the syntax tree are all equivalent to the nodes you will see on the Go API. To get the type of a node, use syntax.NodeType as the example above shows. Some of the most common node types include:

The five above will show up in your syntax tree if you parse a echo foo command, which you can see if you use syntax.DebugPrint to inspect the syntax tree.

Building

You will need:

Then, simply run ./build. The result will be index.js, which isn't minified. At the time of writing, index.js weighs 1.7MiB in plaintext, and 220KiB when minified and gzipped.
