Source Map

NPM

This is a library to generate the source map format described here. It is a close fork of source-map, which also provides a source map consumer.

Use with Node

$ npm install source-map-generator

Use on the Web

<script src="https://unpkg.com/source-map-generator@0.8.0/dist/source-map.js"></script>
<script>
  const map = new SourceMapGenerator({
    file: "source-mapped.js"
  });
</script>

Generating a source map

In depth guide: Compiling to JavaScript, and Debugging with Source Maps

With SourceNode (high level API)

function compile(ast) {
  switch (ast.type) {
    case "BinaryExpression":
      return new SourceNode(ast.location.line, ast.location.column, ast.location.source, [
        compile(ast.left),
        " + ",
        compile(ast.right)
      ]);
    case "Literal":
      return new SourceNode(ast.location.line, ast.location.column, ast.location.source, String(ast.value));
    // ...
    default:
      throw new Error("Bad AST");
  }
}

var ast = parse("40 + 2", "add.js");
console.log(
  compile(ast).toStringWithSourceMap({
    file: "add.js"
  })
);
// { code: '40 + 2',
//   map: [object SourceMapGenerator] }

With SourceMapGenerator (low level API)

var map = new SourceMapGenerator({
  file: "source-mapped.js"
});

map.addMapping({
  generated: {
    line: 10,
    column: 35
  },
  source: "foo.js",
  original: {
    line: 33,
    column: 2
  },
  name: "christopher"
});

console.log(map.toString());
// '{"version":3,"file":"source-mapped.js","sources":["foo.js"],"names":["christopher"],"mappings":";;;;;;;;;mCAgCEA"}'

API

Get a reference to the module:

// Node.js
var sourceMap = require("source-map");

// Browser builds
var sourceMap = window.sourceMap;

// Inside Firefox
const sourceMap = require("devtools/toolkit/sourcemap/source-map.js");

SourceMapGenerator

An instance of the SourceMapGenerator represents a source map which is being built incrementally.

new SourceMapGenerator([startOfSourceMap])

You may pass an object with the following properties:

  • file: The filename of the generated source that this source map is associated with.

  • sourceRoot: A root for all relative URLs in this source map.

  • skipValidation: Optional. When true, disables validation of mappings as they are added. This can improve performance but should be used with discretion, as a last resort. Even then, one should avoid using this flag when running tests, if possible.

var generator = new sourceMap.SourceMapGenerator({
  file: "my-generated-javascript-file.js",
  sourceRoot: "http://example.com/app/js/"
});

SourceMapGenerator.prototype.addMapping(mapping)

Add a single mapping from original source line and column to the generated source's line and column for this source map being created. The mapping object should have the following properties:

  • generated: An object with the generated line and column positions.

  • original: An object with the original line and column positions.

  • source: The original source file (relative to the sourceRoot).

  • name: An optional original token name for this mapping.

generator.addMapping({
  source: "module-one.scm",
  original: { line: 128, column: 0 },
  generated: { line: 3, column: 456 }
});

SourceMapGenerator.prototype.setSourceContent(sourceFile, sourceContent)

Set the source content for an original source file.

  • sourceFile the URL of the original source file.

  • sourceContent the content of the source file.

generator.setSourceContent("module-one.scm", fs.readFileSync("path/to/module-one.scm"));

SourceMapGenerator.prototype.toString()

Renders the source map being generated to a string.

generator.toString();
// '{"version":3,"sources":["module-one.scm"],"names":[],"mappings":"...snip...","file":"my-generated-javascript-file.js","sourceRoot":"http://example.com/app/js/"}'

SourceNode

SourceNodes provide a way to abstract over interpolating and/or concatenating snippets of generated JavaScript source code, while maintaining the line and column information associated between those snippets and the original source code. This is useful as the final intermediate representation a compiler might use before outputting the generated JS and source map.

new SourceNode([line, column, source[, chunk[, name]]])

  • line: The original line number associated with this source node, or null if it isn't associated with an original line. The line number is 1-based.

  • column: The original column number associated with this source node, or null if it isn't associated with an original column. The column number is 0-based.

  • source: The original source's filename; null if no filename is provided.

  • chunk: Optional. Is immediately passed to SourceNode.prototype.add, see below.

  • name: Optional. The original identifier.

var node = new SourceNode(1, 2, "a.cpp", [
  new SourceNode(3, 4, "b.cpp", "extern int status;\n"),
  new SourceNode(5, 6, "c.cpp", "std::string* make_string(size_t n);\n"),
  new SourceNode(7, 8, "d.cpp", "int main(int argc, char** argv) {}\n")
]);

SourceNode.prototype.add(chunk)

Add a chunk of generated JS to this source node.

  • chunk: A string snippet of generated JS code, another instance of SourceNode, or an array where each member is one of those things.
node.add(" + ");
node.add(otherNode);
node.add([leftHandOperandNode, " + ", rightHandOperandNode]);

SourceNode.prototype.prepend(chunk)

Prepend a chunk of generated JS to this source node.

  • chunk: A string snippet of generated JS code, another instance of SourceNode, or an array where each member is one of those things.
node.prepend("/** Build Id: f783haef86324gf **/\n\n");

SourceNode.prototype.setSourceContent(sourceFile, sourceContent)

Set the source content for a source file. This will be added to the SourceMap in the sourcesContent field.

  • sourceFile: The filename of the source file

  • sourceContent: The content of the source file

node.setSourceContent("module-one.scm", fs.readFileSync("path/to/module-one.scm"));

SourceNode.prototype.walk(fn)

Walk over the tree of JS snippets in this node and its children. The walking function is called once for each snippet of JS and is passed that snippet and the its original associated source's line/column location.

  • fn: The traversal function.
var node = new SourceNode(1, 2, "a.js", [
  new SourceNode(3, 4, "b.js", "uno"),
  "dos",
  ["tres", new SourceNode(5, 6, "c.js", "quatro")]
]);

node.walk(function(code, loc) {
  console.log("WALK:", code, loc);
});
// WALK: uno { source: 'b.js', line: 3, column: 4, name: null }
// WALK: dos { source: 'a.js', line: 1, column: 2, name: null }
// WALK: tres { source: 'a.js', line: 1, column: 2, name: null }
// WALK: quatro { source: 'c.js', line: 5, column: 6, name: null }

SourceNode.prototype.walkSourceContents(fn)

Walk over the tree of SourceNodes. The walking function is called for each source file content and is passed the filename and source content.

  • fn: The traversal function.
var a = new SourceNode(1, 2, "a.js", "generated from a");
a.setSourceContent("a.js", "original a");
var b = new SourceNode(1, 2, "b.js", "generated from b");
b.setSourceContent("b.js", "original b");
var c = new SourceNode(1, 2, "c.js", "generated from c");
c.setSourceContent("c.js", "original c");

var node = new SourceNode(null, null, null, [a, b, c]);
node.walkSourceContents(function(source, contents) {
  console.log("WALK:", source, ":", contents);
});
// WALK: a.js : original a
// WALK: b.js : original b
// WALK: c.js : original c

SourceNode.prototype.join(sep)

Like Array.prototype.join except for SourceNodes. Inserts the separator between each of this source node's children.

  • sep: The separator.
var lhs = new SourceNode(1, 2, "a.rs", "my_copy");
var operand = new SourceNode(3, 4, "a.rs", "=");
var rhs = new SourceNode(5, 6, "a.rs", "orig.clone()");

var node = new SourceNode(null, null, null, [lhs, operand, rhs]);
var joinedNode = node.join(" ");

SourceNode.prototype.replaceRight(pattern, replacement)

Call String.prototype.replace on the very right-most source snippet. Useful for trimming white space from the end of a source node, etc.

  • pattern: The pattern to replace.

  • replacement: The thing to replace the pattern with.

// Trim trailing white space.
node.replaceRight(/\s*$/, "");

SourceNode.prototype.toString()

Return the string representation of this source node. Walks over the tree and concatenates all the various snippets together to one string.

var node = new SourceNode(1, 2, "a.js", [
  new SourceNode(3, 4, "b.js", "uno"),
  "dos",
  ["tres", new SourceNode(5, 6, "c.js", "quatro")]
]);

node.toString();
// 'unodostresquatro'

SourceNode.prototype.toStringWithSourceMap([startOfSourceMap])

Returns the string representation of this tree of source nodes, plus a SourceMapGenerator which contains all the mappings between the generated and original sources.

The arguments are the same as those to new SourceMapGenerator.

var node = new SourceNode(1, 2, "a.js", [
  new SourceNode(3, 4, "b.js", "uno"),
  "dos",
  ["tres", new SourceNode(5, 6, "c.js", "quatro")]
]);

node.toStringWithSourceMap({ file: "my-output-file.js" });
// { code: 'unodostresquatro',
//   map: [object SourceMapGenerator] }

Internal Improvements:

  • #347 - Improve tests.
  • #352 - Improve documentation.
  • #361 - Use newer Webpack CLI when bundling.
  • #364 - Convert IndexedSourceMapConsumer implementation to pass more through to BasicSourceMapConsumer.
  • #366 - Normalize internal URL representation to be easier to follow.
  • #341 - Use async functions to simplify SourceMapConsumer.with implementation.

0.7.3

  • Fix a bug where nested uses of SourceMapConsumer could result in a TypeError. #338 #330 #319

0.7.2

0.7.1

  • Updated TypeScript typings. #321

0.7.0

  • SourceMapConsumer now uses WebAssembly, and is much faster! Read about it here: https://hacks.mozilla.org/2018/01/oxidizing-source-maps-with-rust-and-webassembly/

  • Breaking change: new SourceMapConsumer now returns a Promise object that resolves to the newly constructed SourceMapConsumer instance, rather than returning the new instance immediately.

  • Breaking change: when you're done using a SourceMapConsumer instance, you must call SourceMapConsumer.prototype.destroy on it. After calling destroy, you must not use the instance again.

  • Breaking change: SourceMapConsumer used to be able to handle lines, columns numbers and source and name indices up to 2^53 - 1 (aka Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER). It can now only handle them up to 2^32 - 1.

  • Breaking change: The source-map library now uses modern ECMAScript-isms: let, arrow functions, async, etc. Use Babel to compile it down to ECMAScript 5 if you need to support older JavaScript environments.

  • Breaking change: Drop support for Node < 8. If you want to support older versions of node, please use v0.6 or below.

0.5.6

  • Fix for regression when people were using numbers as names in source maps. See

    236.

0.5.5

  • Fix "regression" of unsupported, implementation behavior that half the world happens to have come to depend on. See #235.

  • Fix regression involving function hoisting in SpiderMonkey. See #233.

0.5.4

  • Large performance improvements to source-map serialization. See #228 and #229.

0.5.2

  • Include browser distributions of the library in package.json's files. See issue #212.

0.5.1

  • Fix latent bugs in IndexedSourceMapConsumer.prototype._parseMappings. See ff05274becc9e6e1295ed60f3ea090d31d843379.

0.5.0

  • Node 0.8 is no longer supported.

  • Use webpack instead of dryice for bundling.

  • Big speedups serializing source maps. See pull request #203.

  • Fix a bug with SourceMapConsumer.prototype.sourceContentFor and sources that explicitly start with the source root. See issue #199.

0.4.4

  • Fix an issue where using a SourceMapGenerator after having created a SourceMapConsumer from it via SourceMapConsumer.fromSourceMap failed. See issue #191.

  • Fix an issue with where SourceMapGenerator would mistakenly consider different mappings as duplicates of each other and avoid generating them. See issue #192.

0.4.3

  • A very large number of performance improvements, particularly when parsing source maps. Collectively about 75% of time shaved off of the source map parsing benchmark!

  • Fix a bug in SourceMapConsumer.prototype.allGeneratedPositionsFor and fuzzy searching in the presence of a column option. See issue #177.

  • Fix a bug with joining a source and its source root when the source is above the root. See issue #182.

  • Add the SourceMapConsumer.prototype.hasContentsOfAllSources method to determine when all sources' contents are inlined into the source map. See issue #190.

0.4.2

  • Add an .npmignore file so that the benchmarks aren't pulled down by dependent projects. Issue #169.

  • Add an optional column argument to SourceMapConsumer.prototype.allGeneratedPositionsFor and better handle lines with no mappings. Issues #172 and #173.

0.4.1

  • Fix accidentally defining a global variable. #170.

0.4.0

  • The default direction for fuzzy searching was changed back to its original direction. See #164.

  • Support for environments using json2.js for JSON serialization. See #156.

0.2.0

  • Support for consuming "indexed" source maps which do not have any remote sections. See pull request #127. This introduces a minor backwards incompatibility if you are monkey patching SourceMapConsumer.prototype methods.

  • Allow the names mapping property to be an empty string. Issue #121.

0.1.35

  • A third optional parameter was added to SourceNode.fromStringWithSourceMap to specify a path that relative sources in the second parameter should be relative to. Issue #105.

  • If no file property is given to a SourceMapGenerator, then the resulting source map will no longer have a null file property. The property will simply not exist. Issue #104.

  • Fixed a bug where consecutive newlines were ignored in SourceNodes. Issue #116.
