This is plugin for [Acorn](http://marijnhaverbeke.nl/acorn/) - a tiny, fast JavaScript parser, written completely in JavaScript.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It was created as an experimental alternative, faster [React.js JSX](http://facebook.github.io/react/docs/jsx-in-depth.html) parser.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
According to [benchmarks](https://github.com/RReverser/acorn-jsx/blob/master/test/bench.html), Acorn-JSX is 2x faster than official [Esprima-based parser](https://github.com/facebook/esprima) when location tracking is turned on in both (call it "source maps enabled mode"). At the same time, it consumes all the ES6+JSX syntax that can be consumed by Esprima-FB (this is proved by [official tests](https://github.com/RReverser/acorn-jsx/blob/master/test/tests-jsx.js)).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**UPDATE [14-Apr-2015]**: Facebook implementation started [deprecation process](https://github.com/facebook/esprima/issues/111) in favor of Acorn + Acorn-JSX + Babel for parsing and transpiling JSX syntax.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Transpiler
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please note that this tool only parses source code to JSX AST, which is useful for various language tools and services. If you want to transpile your code to regular ES5-compliant JavaScript with source map, check out the [babel transpiler](https://babeljs.io/) which uses `acorn-jsx` under the hood.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can use module directly in order to get Acorn instance with plugin installed:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
var acorn = require('acorn-jsx');
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Or you can use `inject.js` for injecting plugin into your own version of Acorn like following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
var acorn = require('acorn-jsx/inject')(require('./custom-acorn'));
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then, use `plugins` option whenever you need to support JSX while parsing:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
var ast = acorn.parse(code, {
|
||
|
|
plugins: { jsx: true }
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that official spec doesn't support mix of XML namespaces and object-style access in tag names (#27) like in `<namespace:Object.Property />`, so it was deprecated in `acorn-jsx@3.0`. If you still want to opt-in to support of such constructions, you can pass the following option:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
var ast = acorn.parse(code, {
|
||
|
|
plugins: {
|
||
|
|
jsx: { allowNamespacedObjects: true }
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Also, since most apps use pure React transformer, a new option was introduced that allows to prohibit namespaces completely:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
var ast = acorn.parse(code, {
|
||
|
|
plugins: {
|
||
|
|
jsx: { allowNamespaces: false }
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that by default `allowNamespaces` is enabled for spec compliancy.
