Analyzing AST in Go with JSON tools

• goast-viewer

  1 754 0.0 JavaScript

  Golang AST visualizer

Also, since the format is very specific, you can’t use any tools to navigate it, except text search. Tools like goast-viewer can help with this, but capabilities are limited.

• asty

  1 72 1.4 Go

  Converts golang AST to JSON and JSON to AST

  

So, what I end up with is asty

• go_polymorphic_json

  1 10 10.0 Go

  Demonstration of using polymorphic JSON types with golang.

Keep polymorphism in JSON structure. If some field references an expression then a particular type will be discriminated from the object type name stored in a separate field NodeType. It is tricky to achieve so if you want something like this for other tasks I would recommend checking out this example https://github.com/karaatanassov/go_polymorphic_json

• goblin

  convert from a Go AST to JSON (by ReconfigureIO)

  

One project goblin, which I tried to use for a while, is quite good and mature, but it misses support of backward conversion from JSON to AST. It tries to reinterpret some structures in AST to (I guess) simplify and make them more human-readable. My personal opinion - it is not good. But the main issue with it is lack of maintenance. It was developed a long time ago for version 1.16 and was not updated since then. However, you can find a fork of it relatively up to date.

• go2json

  1 6 10.0 JavaScript

  Golang transpiler: Go AST→JSON→Haxe→?

  

Another project go2json, generates JSON from go code. Also missing the backward conversion and poorly maintained. And it is implemented as a standalone parser with javascript. I think in this way it is very hard to maintain and keep it up with new features in golang.

• asty-python

  1 3 1.9 Python

  Python interface for asty

  

I am looking for cooperation with other developers interested in language tools development. Meanwhile, you can check another repository with examples where I experiment with AST JSON in python.

• jq

  306 25,063 0.0 C

  Discontinued Command-line JSON processor [Moved to: https://github.com/jqlang/jq] (by stedolan)

  

I started thinking of the library that would allow us to convert AST into some very conventional format like JSON. JSON is easy to manipulate, and many tools (like jq) and approaches exist to search and modify JSON.
