babel-value

Compute simple values from a babel AST.

Will compute the value of an expression AST that was generated using babel. It will not perform any computations, will not hunt down the value of referenced identifiers, etc. It will handle complex object and array literals, as long as they in turn contain nothing computed.

Basically, if the source code that generated the AST looks similar to valid JSON, this should work.

Install

$ npm install --save babel-value

Usage

const babelValue = require('babel-value');

babelValue({
  type: 'StringLiteral',
  value: 'foo'
});
//=> 'foo'

API

babelValue(node)

Returns the computed value of the node, throws if it contains any computed values or identifiers.
