bash-parser

A fork of vorpaljs/bash-parser - Parses bash source code to produce an AST

This fork is focussed at dependency maintenance and will not receive any updates beyond that. No new features, no bug (nor security) fixes.

Installation

npm install --save bash-parser

Usage

  const parse = require('bash-parser');
  const ast = parse('echo ciao');

ast result is:

{
        type: "Script",
        commands: [
            {
                type: "SimpleCommand",
                name: {
                    text: "echo",
                    type: "Word"
                },
                suffix: [
                    {
                        text: "ciao",
                        type: "Word"
                    }
                ]
            }
        ]
    }
