grasp equery
A query engine for grasp - use JavaScript code examples with wildcards.
For documentation on the selector format, see the grasp page on equery.
See also the other query engine for grasp: squery.
Usage
Add grasp-equery
to your package.json
, and then require it: var equery = require('grasp-equery);
.
The squery
object exposes four properties: three functions, parse
, queryParsed
, query
, and the version string as VERSION
.
Use parse(selector)
to parse a string selector into a parsed selector.
Use queryParsed(parsedSelector, ast)
to query your parsed selector.
query(selector, ast)
is shorthand for doing queryParsed(parse(selector), ast)
.
The AST must be in the Mozilla SpiderMonkey AST format - you can use acorn to parse a JavaScript file into the format.
If you are using one selector for multiple ASTs, parse it first, and then feed the parsed version to queryParsed
. If you are only using the selector once, just use query
.
