Node objects

AST nodes are represented as Node objects, which may have any prototype inheritance but which implement the following interface:

interface Node {
  type: string;
  loc: SourceLocation | null;
}

The type field is a string representing the AST variant type. Each subtype of Node is documented below with the specific string of its type field. You can use this field to determine which interface a node implements.

The loc field represents the source location information of the node. If the node contains no information about the source location, the field is null; otherwise it is an object consisting of a start position (the position of the first character of the parsed source region) and an end position (the position of the first character after the parsed source region):

interface SourceLocation {
  source: string | null;
  start: Position;
  end: Position;
}

Each Position object consists of a line number (1-indexed) and a column number (0-indexed):

interface Position {
  line: number; // >= 1
  column: number; // >= 0
}

Changes

@babel/parser (Babylon) v7

Flow: Node renamed from ExistentialTypeParam to ExistsTypeAnnotation #322

Flow: Node renamed from NumericLiteralTypeAnnotation to NumberLiteralTypeAnnotation babel/babylon#332

Flow: Node Variance which replaces the string value of the variance field on several nodes babel/babylon#333

Flow: ObjectTypeIndexer location info matches Flow's better babel/babylon#228

Node ForAwaitStatement has been removed #349 in favor of modifying ForOfStatement

RestProperty and SpreadProperty have been dropped in favor of RestElement and SpreadElement.

Modules

ModuleDeclaration

interface ModuleDeclaration <: Node { }

A module import or export declaration.

ModuleSpecifier

interface ModuleSpecifier <: Node {
  local: Identifier;
}

A specifier in an import or export declaration.

Imports

ImportDeclaration

interface ImportDeclaration <: ModuleDeclaration {
  type: "ImportDeclaration";
  importKind: null | "type" | "typeof" | "value";
  specifiers: [ ImportSpecifier | ImportDefaultSpecifier | ImportNamespaceSpecifier ];
  source: StringLiteral;
  assertions?: [ ImportAttribute ];
}

An import declaration, e.g., import foo from "mod";.

importKind is only set when flow plugin enabled in babel-parser

ImportSpecifier

interface ImportSpecifier <: ModuleSpecifier {
  type: "ImportSpecifier";
  imported: Identifier | StringLiteral;
}

An imported variable binding, e.g., {foo} in import {foo} from "mod" or {foo as bar} in import {foo as bar} from "mod". The imported field refers to the name of the export imported from the module. The local field refers to the binding imported into the local module scope. If it is a basic named import, such as in import {foo} from "mod", both imported and local are equivalent Identifier nodes; in this case an Identifier node representing foo. If it is an aliased import, such as in import {foo as bar} from "mod", the imported field is an Identifier node representing foo, and the local field is an Identifier node representing bar.

ImportDefaultSpecifier

interface ImportDefaultSpecifier <: ModuleSpecifier {
  type: "ImportDefaultSpecifier";
}

A default import specifier, e.g., foo in import foo from "mod.js".

ImportNamespaceSpecifier

interface ImportNamespaceSpecifier <: ModuleSpecifier {
  type: "ImportNamespaceSpecifier";
}

A namespace import specifier, e.g., * as foo in import * as foo from "mod.js".

ImportAttribute

interface ImportAttribute <: Node {
  type: "ImportAttribute";
  key: Identifier;

}

An attribute specified on the ImportDeclaration.

Exports

ExportNamedDeclaration

interface ExportNamedDeclaration <: ModuleDeclaration {
  type: "ExportNamedDeclaration";
  declaration: Declaration | null;

  assertions?: [ ImportAttribute ];
}

An export named declaration, e.g., export {foo, bar};, export {foo} from "mod";, export var foo = 1; or export * as foo from "bar";.

Note:

• Having declaration populated with non-empty specifiers or non-null source results in an invalid state.
• If source is null, for each specifier of specifiers, specifier.local can not be a StringLiteral.
• If specifiers contains ExportNamespaceSpecifier, it must have only one ExportNamespaceSpecifier.

ExportSpecifier

interface ExportSpecifier <: ModuleSpecifier {
  type: "ExportSpecifier";
  exported: Identifier | StringLiteral;
  local?: Identifier | StringLiteral;
}

An exported variable binding, e.g., {foo} in export {foo} or {bar as foo} in export {bar as foo}. The exported field refers to the name exported in the module. The local field refers to the binding into the local module scope. If it is a basic named export, such as in export {foo}, both exported and local are equivalent Identifier nodes; in this case an Identifier node representing foo. If it is an aliased export, such as in export {bar as foo}, the exported field is an Identifier node representing foo, and the local field is an Identifier node representing bar.

ExportNamespaceSpecifier

interface ExportNamespaceSpecifier <: ModuleSpecifier {
  type: "ExportNamespaceSpecifier";
  exported: Identifier;
}

A namespace export specifier, e.g., * as foo in export * as foo from "mod.js".

ExportAllDeclaration

interface ExportAllDeclaration <: ModuleDeclaration {
  type: "ExportAllDeclaration";
  source: StringLiteral;
  assertions?: [ ImportAttribute ];
}

An export batch declaration, e.g., export * from "mod";.
