Installation

The easiest way to install acorn is from npm:

npm install acorn

Alternately, you can download the source and build acorn yourself:

git clone https://github.com/acornjs/acorn.git
cd acorn
npm install

Interface

parse(input, options) is the main interface to the library. The input parameter is a string, options can be undefined or an object setting some of the options listed below. The return value will be an abstract syntax tree object as specified by the ESTree spec.

let acorn = require("acorn");
console.log(acorn.parse("1 + 1"));

When encountering a syntax error, the parser will raise a SyntaxError object with a meaningful message. The error object will have a pos property that indicates the string offset at which the error occurred, and a loc object that contains a {line, column} object referring to that same position.

Options can be provided by passing a second argument, which should be an object containing any of these fields:

• ecmaVersion: Indicates the ECMAScript version to parse. Must be either 3, 5, 6 (2015), 7 (2016), 8 (2017), 9 (2018) or 10 (2019, partial support). This influences support for strict mode, the set of reserved words, and support for new syntax features. Default is 9.

NOTE: Only 'stage 4' (finalized) ECMAScript features are being implemented by Acorn. Other proposed new features can be implemented through plugins.

• sourceType: Indicate the mode the code should be parsed in. Can be either "script" or "module". This influences global strict mode and parsing of import and export declarations.

NOTE: If set to "module", then static import / export syntax will be valid, even if ecmaVersion is less than 6.

• onInsertedSemicolon: If given a callback, that callback will be called whenever a missing semicolon is inserted by the parser. The callback will be given the character offset of the point where the semicolon is inserted as argument, and if locations is on, also a {line, column} object representing this position.

• onTrailingComma: Like onInsertedSemicolon, but for trailing commas.

• allowReserved: If false, using a reserved word will generate an error. Defaults to true for ecmaVersion 3, false for higher versions. When given the value "never", reserved words and keywords can also not be used as property names (as in Internet Explorer's old parser).

• allowReturnOutsideFunction: By default, a return statement at the top level raises an error. Set this to true to accept such code.

• allowImportExportEverywhere: By default, import and export declarations can only appear at a program's top level. Setting this option to true allows them anywhere where a statement is allowed.

• allowAwaitOutsideFunction: By default, await expressions can only appear inside async functions. Setting this option to true allows to have top-level await expressions. They are still not allowed in non-async functions, though.

• allowHashBang: When this is enabled (off by default), if the code starts with the characters #! (as in a shellscript), the first line will be treated as a comment.

• locations: When true, each node has a loc object attached with start and end subobjects, each of which contains the one-based line and zero-based column numbers in {line, column} form. Default is false.

• onToken: If a function is passed for this option, each found token will be passed in same format as tokens returned from tokenizer().getToken().

If array is passed, each found token is pushed to it.

Note that you are not allowed to call the parser from the callback—that will corrupt its internal state.

• onComment: If a function is passed for this option, whenever a comment is encountered the function will be called with the following parameters:

  • block: true if the comment is a block comment, false if it is a line comment.
  • text: The content of the comment.
  • start: Character offset of the start of the comment.
  • end: Character offset of the end of the comment.

When the locations options is on, the {line, column} locations of the comment’s start and end are passed as two additional parameters.

If array is passed for this option, each found comment is pushed to it as object in Esprima format:

  {
    "type": "Line" | "Block",
    "value": "comment text",
    "start": Number,
    "end": Number,
    // If `locations` option is on:
    "loc": {
      "start": {line: Number, column: Number}
      "end": {line: Number, column: Number}
    },
    // If `ranges` option is on:
    "range": [Number, Number]
  }

Note that you are not allowed to call the parser from the callback—that will corrupt its internal state.

• ranges: Nodes have their start and end characters offsets recorded in start and end properties (directly on the node, rather than the loc object, which holds line/column data. To also add a semi-standardized range property holding a [start, end] array with the same numbers, set the ranges option to true.

• program: It is possible to parse multiple files into a single AST by passing the tree produced by parsing the first file as the program option in subsequent parses. This will add the toplevel forms of the parsed file to the "Program" (top) node of an existing parse tree.

• sourceFile: When the locations option is true, you can pass this option to add a source attribute in every node’s loc object. Note that the contents of this option are not examined or processed in any way; you are free to use whatever format you choose.

• directSourceFile: Like sourceFile, but a sourceFile property will be added (regardless of the location option) directly to the nodes, rather than the loc object.

• preserveParens: If this option is true, parenthesized expressions are represented by (non-standard) ParenthesizedExpression nodes that have a single expression property containing the expression inside parentheses.

parseExpressionAt(input, offset, options) will parse a single expression in a string, and return its AST. It will not complain if there is more of the string left after the expression.

tokenizer(input, options) returns an object with a getToken method that can be called repeatedly to get the next token, a {start, end, type, value} object (with added loc property when the locations option is enabled and range property when the ranges option is enabled). When the token's type is tokTypes.eof, you should stop calling the method, since it will keep returning that same token forever.

In ES6 environment, returned result can be used as any other protocol-compliant iterable:

for (let token of acorn.tokenizer(str)) {
  // iterate over the tokens
}

// transform code to array of tokens:
var tokens = [...acorn.tokenizer(str)];

tokTypes holds an object mapping names to the token type objects that end up in the type properties of tokens.

getLineInfo(input, offset) can be used to get a {line, column} object for a given program string and offset.

The Parser class

Instances of the Parser class contain all the state and logic that drives a parse. It has static methods parse, parseExpressionAt, and tokenizer that match the top-level functions by the same name.

When extending the parser with plugins, you need to call these methods on the extended version of the class. To extend a parser with plugins, you can use its static extend method.

var acorn = require("acorn");
var jsx = require("acorn-jsx");
var JSXParser = acorn.Parser.extend(jsx());
JSXParser.parse("foo(<bar/>)");

The extend method takes any number of plugin values, and returns a new Parser class that includes the extra parser logic provided by the plugins.

Command line interface

The bin/acorn utility can be used to parse a file from the command line. It accepts as arguments its input file and the following options:

• --ecma3|--ecma5|--ecma6|--ecma7|--ecma8|--ecma9|--ecma10: Sets the ECMAScript version to parse. Default is version 9.

• --module: Sets the parsing mode to "module". Is set to "script" otherwise.

• --locations: Attaches a "loc" object to each node with "start" and "end" subobjects, each of which contains the one-based line and zero-based column numbers in {line, column} form.

• --allow-hash-bang: If the code starts with the characters #! (as in a shellscript), the first line will be treated as a comment.

• --compact: No whitespace is used in the AST output.

• --silent: Do not output the AST, just return the exit status.

• --help: Print the usage information and quit.

The utility spits out the syntax tree as JSON data.
