  • πŸ”₯ [Breaking] Spec: change the SvelteSlotParameter definition, to support name, description, type fields, instead of many not relevant fields that was inherited from ISvelteItem interface.
  • πŸ”₯ [Breaking] Spec: change the SvelteSlotItem definition, to improve consistency:
    • Rename parameters property to params to be most likely the same as SvelteMethodItem. Old field still available until 5.* release.

Thanks a lot @soft-decay for contributing in this release!

[4.0.0] 25.01.2021

  • πŸ›  [Fixed] Fix Issue #42
  • πŸ›  [Fixed] Partially fixed Issue #1. Event names are now correctly parsed if provided by a top-level constant in the same file. Thanks to @soft-decay
  • βœ” [Added] Support complete parsing of component method arguments Issue #39. Thanks to @soft-decay
  • βœ” [Added] Support parsing of return type and description for methods in component Issue #37. Thanks to @soft-decay
  • βœ” [Added] Options validation, Thanks to @soft-decay
  • πŸ”₯ [Breaking] API rework for component methods description:
    • args property renamed to params;
    • Change the structure of return item for methods:
      • desc property renamed to description;
      • type property now contains a JSDocType object instead of a string with a text representation of the type. This text representation is still available from the text property of the JSDocType object;
    • [Svelte2]: method arguments presented with plain array with names, now that replaced with objects of SvelteMethodParamItem type;
  • πŸ”₯ [Breaking] Cleanup deprecated code:
    • loc property removed: Use locations instead;
    • value property of SvelteComponentItem removed: Use importPath instead;

filename The filename to parse. Required, unless fileContent is passed. string
fileContent The file content to parse. Required, unless filename is passed. string
encoding The file encoding. string utf8

includeSourceLocations Flag, which indicates that source locations should be provided for component symbols. boolean false
version Optional. Use 2 or 3 to specify which svelte syntax should be used. When that is not provided, parser try to detect version of the syntax. number? undefined
defaultVersion Optional. Specify default version of svelte syntax, if auto-detector can't identify correct version. number? undefined

Supported feature names

These are the values that can be included in the options.features array:

Feature Svelte 2 Svelte 3 Description
name βœ” βœ” Component's name
description βœ” βœ” Component's description

Output format

Output format is described in this document.

For Svelte 3 examples, take a look at the examples folder to check how Svelte 3 components are transformed to JSON documents.

For a Svelte 2 example, take a look at the JSON output generated from this component.

Usage

Minimal example:

const sveltedoc = require('sveltedoc-parser');
const options = {
    filename: 'main.svelte'
};

sveltedoc.parse(options)
    .then(componentDoc => {
        console.log(componentDoc);
    })
    .catch(e => {
        console.error(e);
    });

or with options customization:

const { parse } = require('sveltedoc-parser');
const { externalFileContent } = require('./local-file');
const options = {
    fileContent: externalFileContent,
    encoding: 'ascii',
    features: ['data', 'computed', 'methods'],
    ignoredVisibilities: ['private'],
    includeSourceLocations: true,
    version: 3
};
const doc = await parse(options);
console.log(doc)

API

parse(options)

Method to parse svelte component and provide doc object structure with details information.

detectVersion(options)

Method to detect the Svelte syntax used in the component. It returns, in order:

  • the value of options.version, if present; else
  • 2 or 3 if Svelte 2 syntax or Svelte 3 syntax is detected, respectively; else
  • the value of options.defaultVersion, if present; else
  • undefined if the function failed to detect the syntax to use
