This package is a [unified][github-unified] ([recma][github-recma]) plugin that
defines how to take a syntax tree as input and turn it into JavaScript.
When it’s used,
JavaScript is serialized as the final result.
See [the monorepo readme][github-recma] for info on what the recma ecosystem is.
This plugin adds support to unified for serializing JavaScript.
If you also need to parse JavaScript,
you can alternatively use [recma][github-recma-core],
which combines unified,
this plugin,
and [recma-parse][github-recma-parse].
If you don’t use plugins and have access to the syntax tree,
you can directly use [estree-util-to-js][github-estree-util-to-js],
which is used inside this plugin.
recma focusses on making it easier to transform code by abstracting such
internals away.
This package is [ESM only][github-gist-esm].
In Node.js (version 16+),
install with [npm][npm-install]:
``sh`
npm install recma-stringify
In Deno with [esm.sh][esmsh]:
`js`
import recmaStringify from 'https://esm.sh/recma-stringify@1'
In browsers with [esm.sh][esmsh]:
`html`
Say we have the following module example.js:
`js
import recmaJsx from 'recma-jsx'
import recmaStringify from 'recma-stringify'
import rehypeParse from 'rehype-parse'
import rehypeRecma from 'rehype-recma'
import {unified} from 'unified'
const file = await unified()
.use(rehypeParse, {fragment: true})
.use(rehypeRecma)
.use(recmaJsx)
.use(recmaStringify)
.process('
Hi!
console.log(String(file))
`
…running that with node example.js yields:
` {"Hi!"}jsx`
<>{"Hello!"}
>;
This package exports no identifiers.
The default export is [recmaStringify][api-recma-stringify].
Plugin to add support for serializing to JavaScript.
###### Parameters
* options ([Options][api-options], optional)
— configuration
###### Returns
Nothing (undefined).
Configuration (TypeScript type).
Same as [Options][github-estree-util-to-js-options]estree-util-to-js
from [][github-estree-util-to-js].filePath
Passing is not supported as it is handled for you.
JS is serialized according to [ECMA-262][tc39-ecma-262],
which is also followed by all browsers and engines such as Node.js.
The syntax tree format used in recma is [esast][github-esast] and
[estree][github-estree].
This package is fully typed with [TypeScript][].
It exports the additional type
[Options][api-options].
Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained
versions of Node.js.
When we cut a new major release,
we drop support for unmaintained versions of Node.
This means we try to keep the current release line,
recma-strignify@1`,
compatible with Node.js 16.
As recma works on JS and evaluating JS is unsafe,
use of recma can also be unsafe.
Do not evaluate unsafe code.
Use of recma plugins could also open you up to other attacks.
Carefully assess each plugin and the risks involved in using them.
