# ESLint Scope
ESLint Scope is the [ECMAScript](http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-262.htm) scope analyzer used in ESLint. It is a fork of [escope](http://github.com/estools/escope).
## Install
```
npm i eslint-scope --save
```
## 📖 Usage
To use in an ESM file:
```js
import * as eslintScope from 'eslint-scope';
```
To use in a CommonJS file:
```js
const eslintScope = require('eslint-scope');
```
In order to analyze scope, you'll need to have an [ESTree](https://github.com/estree/estree) compliant AST structure to run it on. The primary method is `eslintScope.analyze()`, which takes two arguments:
1. `ast` - the ESTree-compliant AST structure to analyze.
2. `options` (optional) - Options to adjust how the scope is analyzed, including:
* `ignoreEval` (default: `false`) - Set to `true` to ignore all `eval()` calls (which would normally create scopes).
* `nodejsScope` (default: `false`) - Set to `true` to create a top-level function scope needed for CommonJS evaluation.
* `impliedStrict` (default: `false`) - Set to `true` to evaluate the code in strict mode even outside of modules and without `"use strict"`.
* `ecmaVersion` (default: `5`) - The version of ECMAScript to use to evaluate the code.
* `sourceType` (default: `"script"`) - The type of JavaScript file to evaluate. Change to `"module"` for ECMAScript module code.
* `childVisitorKeys` (default: `null`) - An object with visitor key information (like [`eslint-visitor-keys`](https://github.com/eslint/js/tree/main/packages/eslint-visitor-keys)). Without this, `eslint-scope` finds child nodes to visit algorithmically. Providing this option is a performance enhancement.
* `fallback` (default: `"iteration"`) - The strategy to use when `childVisitorKeys` is not specified. May be a function.
* `jsx` (default: `false`) - Enables the tracking of JSX components as variable references.
Example:
```js
import * as eslintScope from 'eslint-scope';
import * as espree from 'espree';
import estraverse from 'estraverse';
const options = {
ecmaVersion: 2022,
sourceType: "module"
};
const ast = espree.parse(code, { range: true, ...options });
const scopeManager = eslintScope.analyze(ast, options);
const currentScope = scopeManager.acquire(ast); // global scope
estraverse.traverse(ast, {
enter (node, parent) {
// do stuff
if (/Function/.test(node.type)) {
currentScope = scopeManager.acquire(node); // get current function scope
}
},
leave(node, parent) {
if (/Function/.test(node.type)) {
currentScope = currentScope.upper; // set to parent scope
}
// do stuff
}
});
```
## API
The following section describes the API for this package. You can also read [the docs](https://eslint.org/docs/latest/extend/scope-manager-interface).
### ScopeManager
The `ScopeManager` class is at the core of eslint-scope and is returned when you call `eslintScope.analyze()`. It manages all scopes in a given AST.
#### Properties
- `scopes` - An array of all scopes.
- `globalScope` - Reference to the global scope.
#### Methods
- **`acquire(node, inner)`**
Acquires the appropriate scope for a given node.
- `node` - The AST node to acquire the scope from.
- `inner` - Optional boolean. When `true`, returns the innermost scope, otherwise returns the outermost scope. Default is `false`.
- Returns: The acquired scope or `null` if no scope is found.
- **`acquireAll(node)`**
Acquires all scopes for a given node.
- `node` - The AST node to acquire scopes from.
- Returns: An array of scopes or `undefined` if none are found.
- **`release(node, inner)`**
Returns the upper scope for a given node.
- `node` - The AST node to release.
- `inner` - Optional boolean. When `true`, returns the innermost upper scope, otherwise returns the outermost upper scope. Default is `false`.
- Returns: The upper scope or `null` if no upper scope exists.
- **`getDeclaredVariables(node)`**
Get variables that are declared by the node.
- `node` - The AST node to get declarations from.
- Returns: An array of variable objects declared by the node. If the node doesn't declare any variables, it returns an empty array.
- **`isGlobalReturn()`**
Determines if the global return statement should be allowed.
- Returns: `true` if the global return is enabled.
- **`isModule()`**
Checks if the code should be handled as an ECMAScript module.
- Returns: `true` if the sourceType is "module".
- **`isImpliedStrict()`**
Checks if implied strict mode is enabled.
- Returns: `true` if implied strict mode is enabled.
- **`isStrictModeSupported()`**
Checks if strict mode is supported based on ECMAScript version.
- Returns: `true` if the ECMAScript version supports strict mode.
### Scope Objects
Scopes returned by the ScopeManager methods have the following properties:
- `type` - The type of scope (e.g., "function", "block", "global").
- `variables` - Array of variables declared in this scope.
- `set` - A Map of variable names to Variable objects for variables declared in this scope.
- `references` - Array of references in this scope.
- `through` - Array of references in this scope and its child scopes that aren't resolved in this scope or its child scopes.
- `variableScope` - Reference to the closest variable scope.
- `upper` - Reference to the parent scope.
- `childScopes` - Array of child scopes.
- `block` - The AST node that created this scope.
### GlobalScope
The `GlobalScope` class is a specialized scope representing the global execution context. It extends the base `Scope` class with additional functionality for handling implicitly defined global variables.
#### Properties
- **`implicit`** - Tracks implicitly defined global variables (those used without declaration).
- `set` - A Map of variable names to Variable objects for implicitly defined globals.
- `variables` - Array of implicit global Variable objects.
- `left` - Array of References that need to be linked to the variable they refer to.
### Variable Objects
Each variable object has the following properties:
- `name` - The variable name.
- `identifiers` - Array of identifier nodes declaring this variable.
- `references` - Array of references to this variable.
- `defs` - Array of definition objects for this variable.
- `scope` - The scope object where this variable is defined.
