# JQHTML Parser
|
||||
# @jqhtml/parser
|
||||
|
||||
The JQHTML parser converts template files into JavaScript functions that use the component system.
|
||||
Compiles `.jqhtml` templates into JavaScript for the JQHTML component framework.
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Start - Common Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
### Basic Component with innerHTML (Most Common)
|
||||
|
||||
```jqhtml
|
||||
<!-- Define a component with default attributes -->
|
||||
<Define:Card tag="article" class="card" style="padding: 10px">
|
||||
<div class="card-body">
|
||||
<%= content() %> <!-- Outputs whatever innerHTML was passed -->
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
</Define:Card>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Usage - just pass innerHTML like regular HTML -->
|
||||
<Card class="featured">
|
||||
<h3>Card Title</h3>
|
||||
<p>This is the card content.</p>
|
||||
<button>Click me</button>
|
||||
</Card>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Result: <article class="card featured Card Jqhtml_Component" style="padding: 10px"> -->
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npx jqhtml-compile compile components/*.jqhtml -o bundle.js --sourcemap
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This `content()` pattern is the **primary way** to compose components in JQHTML. It works like regular HTML - the innerHTML you pass gets rendered where `content()` is called.
|
||||
Templates look like HTML with embedded JavaScript:
|
||||
|
||||
### Container Component Example
|
||||
|
||||
```jqhtml
|
||||
<!-- A container with default size that can be overridden -->
|
||||
<Define:Container $size="medium" class="container">
|
||||
<div class="container-inner <%= this.args.size %>">
|
||||
<%= content() %> <!-- Simple innerHTML output -->
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
</Define:Container>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Usage - override the default size -->
|
||||
<Container $size="large">
|
||||
<p>Any content here</p>
|
||||
<UserList />
|
||||
<Footer />
|
||||
</Container>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** Slots (`<#slotname>`) are an advanced feature only needed when you have multiple distinct content areas. For 95% of use cases, the simple `content()` pattern shown above is recommended.
|
||||
|
||||
### Define Tag Attributes (Component Configuration)
|
||||
|
||||
Define tags support three types of attributes for configuring components:
|
||||
|
||||
```jqhtml
|
||||
<Define:Contacts_DataGrid
|
||||
extends="DataGrid_Abstract"
|
||||
$ajax_endpoint=Frontend_Contacts_Controller.datagrid_fetch
|
||||
$per_page=25
|
||||
class="card DataGrid">
|
||||
<div>Content here</div>
|
||||
</Define:Contacts_DataGrid>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**1. `extends=""` - Template Inheritance**
|
||||
Explicitly declare parent template for inheritance (without requiring a JavaScript class).
|
||||
|
||||
**2. `$property=value` - Default Args**
|
||||
Set default values for `this.args` that component invocations can override:
|
||||
- **Quoted**: `$user_id="123"` → String literal `"123"`
|
||||
- **Unquoted**: `$handler=MyController.fetch` → Raw JavaScript expression
|
||||
- These become defaults; invocations can override them
|
||||
|
||||
**3. Regular Attributes**
|
||||
Standard HTML attributes like `class=""`, `tag=""` applied to root element.
|
||||
|
||||
**Generated Output:**
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: 'Contacts_DataGrid',
|
||||
tag: 'div',
|
||||
defaultAttributes: {"class": "card DataGrid"},
|
||||
defineArgs: {"ajax_endpoint": Frontend_Contacts_Controller.datagrid_fetch, "per_page": "25"},
|
||||
extends: 'DataGrid_Abstract',
|
||||
render: function() { ... }
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Slot-Based Template Inheritance
|
||||
|
||||
When a template contains **ONLY slots** (no HTML), it automatically inherits the parent class template:
|
||||
|
||||
```jqhtml
|
||||
<!-- Parent: DataGrid_Abstract.jqhtml -->
|
||||
<Define:DataGrid_Abstract>
|
||||
<table>
|
||||
<thead><tr><%= content('header') %></tr></thead>
|
||||
<tbody>
|
||||
<% for (let record of this.data.records) { %>
|
||||
<tr><%= content('row', record) %></tr>
|
||||
<% } %>
|
||||
</tbody>
|
||||
</table>
|
||||
</Define:DataGrid_Abstract>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Child: Users_DataGrid.jqhtml (slot-only) -->
|
||||
<Define:Users_DataGrid>
|
||||
<#header>
|
||||
<th>ID</th><th>Name</th><th>Email</th>
|
||||
</#header>
|
||||
<#row>
|
||||
<td><%= row.id %></td>
|
||||
<td><%= row.name %></td>
|
||||
<td><%= row.email %></td>
|
||||
</#row>
|
||||
</Define:Users_DataGrid>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The parser detects slot-only templates and generates `{_slots: {...}}` format. Runtime walks prototype chain to find parent templates. **Data passing**: `content('row', record)` passes data to slot parameter `function(row) { ... }`. **Reserved words**: Slot names cannot be JavaScript keywords (`function`, `if`, etc.) - parser rejects with fatal error.
|
||||
|
||||
## Lexer (Task 1 - COMPLETE)
|
||||
|
||||
The lexer is the first stage of the parser. It converts raw JQHTML template text into a stream of tokens.
|
||||
|
||||
### Features
|
||||
|
||||
- **No regex** - Uses simple character scanning for maintainability
|
||||
- **Position tracking** - Every token includes line, column, and absolute positions for source maps
|
||||
- **Simple token types** - Clear, unambiguous token categories
|
||||
- **Efficient scanning** - Single pass through the input
|
||||
|
||||
### Token Types
|
||||
|
||||
- `TEXT` - Plain HTML/text content
|
||||
- `EXPRESSION_START` - `<%=` opening tag
|
||||
- `CODE_START` - `<%` opening tag
|
||||
- `TAG_END` - `%>` closing tag
|
||||
- `DEFINE_START`, `DEFINE_END` - Component definition tags
|
||||
- `COMPONENT_NAME` - Component identifier
|
||||
- `JAVASCRIPT` - JavaScript code within tags
|
||||
|
||||
### Usage
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
import { Lexer } from '@jqhtml/parser';
|
||||
|
||||
const template = `
|
||||
<Define:MyComponent>
|
||||
<h1><%= this.data.title %></h1>
|
||||
<% if (this.data.show) { %>
|
||||
<p>Content here</p>
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<Define:Product_Card class="card">
|
||||
<h3><%= this.data.name %></h3>
|
||||
<% if (this.data.on_sale) { %>
|
||||
<span class="badge">Sale!</span>
|
||||
<% } %>
|
||||
</Define:MyComponent>
|
||||
`;
|
||||
|
||||
const lexer = new Lexer(template);
|
||||
const tokens = lexer.tokenize();
|
||||
|
||||
// tokens is an array of Token objects with:
|
||||
// - type: TokenType
|
||||
// - value: string
|
||||
// - line: number
|
||||
// - column: number
|
||||
// - start: number (absolute position)
|
||||
// - end: number
|
||||
</Define:Product_Card>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Testing
|
||||
The parser handles the template syntax - `<Define:>` blocks, `<%= %>` expressions, control flow, slots, event bindings. Output is JavaScript that the `@jqhtml/core` runtime understands.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Build the parser
|
||||
npm run build
|
||||
## Status
|
||||
|
||||
# Run the test suite
|
||||
node test-lexer.js
|
||||
Alpha release. Works well enough that I use it daily, but documentation is sparse and you might hit edge cases. Webpack loader and proper docs coming soon.
|
||||
|
||||
# Run the demo
|
||||
node demo-lexer.js
|
||||
```

||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Implementation Notes
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
The lexer uses a simple state machine approach:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Text scanning** - Default mode, captures plain text
|
||||
2. **Tag detection** - Looks for `<%`, `<%=`, `%>` sequences
|
||||
3. **Keyword matching** - After `<%`, checks for control flow keywords
|
||||
4. **JavaScript capture** - Captures code between tags
|
||||
5. **Position tracking** - Updates line/column for every character
|
||||
|
||||
No regex patterns are used. All scanning is done with:
|
||||
- `match_sequence()` - Check for exact string match
|
||||
- `match_keyword()` - Check for keyword with word boundary
|
||||
- Character-by-character advancement
|
||||
|
||||
## Parser/AST Builder (Task 2 - COMPLETE)
|
||||
|
||||
The parser takes the token stream from the lexer and builds an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) representing the template structure.
|
||||
|
||||
### Features
|
||||
|
||||
- **Recursive descent parsing** - Simple, predictable parsing algorithm
|
||||
- **Clear node types** - Each AST node represents a specific construct
|
||||
- **Position preservation** - All nodes include source positions
|
||||
- **Error reporting** - Clear messages with line/column information
|
||||
|
||||
### AST Node Types
|
||||
|
||||
- `Program` - Root node containing all top-level definitions
|
||||
- `ComponentDefinition` - Component template definition
|
||||
- `Text` - Plain text/HTML content
|
||||
- `Expression` - JavaScript expressions (`<%= ... %>`)
|
||||
- `IfStatement` - Conditional rendering with optional else
|
||||
- `ForStatement` - Loop constructs
|
||||
- `CodeBlock` - Generic JavaScript code blocks
|
||||
|
||||
### Usage
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
import { Lexer, Parser } from '@jqhtml/parser';
|
||||
|
||||
const template = `
|
||||
<Define:Card>
|
||||
<div class="card">
|
||||
<h3><%= title %></h3>
|
||||
<% if (showContent) { %>
|
||||
<p><%= content %></p>
|
||||
<% } %>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
</Define:Card>
|
||||
`;
|
||||
|
||||
// Tokenize
|
||||
const lexer = new Lexer(template);
|
||||
const tokens = lexer.tokenize();
|
||||
|
||||
// Parse to AST
|
||||
const parser = new Parser(tokens);
|
||||
const ast = parser.parse();
|
||||
|
||||
// AST structure:
|
||||
// {
|
||||
// type: 'Program',
|
||||
// body: [{
|
||||
// type: 'ComponentDefinition',
|
||||
// name: 'Card',
|
||||
// body: [...]
|
||||
// }]
|
||||
// }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Testing
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Run the parser test suite
|
||||
node test-parser.js
|
||||
|
||||
# Run the interactive demo
|
||||
node demo-parser.js
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Implementation Notes
|
||||
|
||||
The parser uses straightforward techniques:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Token consumption** - Advances through tokens one at a time
|
||||
2. **Lookahead** - Peeks at upcoming tokens to decide parsing path
|
||||
3. **Context tracking** - Knows when inside components, loops, etc.
|
||||
4. **Error recovery** - Provides helpful error messages
|
||||
|
||||
No parser generators or complex algorithms - just simple recursive functions that build nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
## Code Generator (Task 3 - COMPLETE)
|
||||
|
||||
The code generator takes the AST and produces executable JavaScript functions that work with the JQHTML component system.
|
||||
|
||||
### Features
|
||||
|
||||
- **jQuery-based DOM manipulation** - Generates efficient jQuery code
|
||||
- **Component render functions** - Each template becomes a render function
|
||||
- **Control flow handling** - Properly handles if/else and for loops
|
||||
- **Expression evaluation** - Safely evaluates and renders expressions
|
||||
- **Colon syntax support** - Strips trailing colons from control statements
|
||||
|
||||
### Generated Code Structure
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Each component gets a render function
|
||||
jqhtml_components.set('ComponentName', {
|
||||
name: 'ComponentName',
|
||||
render: function render() {
|
||||
const $root = $('<div></div>');
|
||||
const $current = $root;
|
||||
|
||||
// Generated DOM manipulation code here
|
||||
|
||||
return $root.children();
|
||||
},
|
||||
dependencies: []
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Usage
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
import { Lexer, Parser, CodeGenerator } from '@jqhtml/parser';
|
||||
|
||||
const template = `
|
||||
<Define:MyComponent>
|
||||
<h1><%= this.data.title %></h1>
|
||||
<% if (this.data.items) { %>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<% for (const item of this.data.items) { %>
|
||||
<li><%= item %></li>
|
||||
<% } %>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<% } %>
|
||||
</Define:MyComponent>
|
||||
`;
|
||||
|
||||
// Generate the code
|
||||
const lexer = new Lexer(template);
|
||||
const tokens = lexer.tokenize();
|
||||
const parser = new Parser(tokens);
|
||||
const ast = parser.parse();
|
||||
const generator = new CodeGenerator();
|
||||
const result = generator.generate(ast);
|
||||
|
||||
// Use in a component
|
||||
class MyComponent extends Component {
|
||||
async on_render() {
|
||||
const template = result.components.get('MyComponent');
|
||||
const elements = template.render.call(this);
|
||||
this.$.append(elements);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Testing
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Run the code generator test suite
|
||||
node test-codegen.js
|
||||
|
||||
# Run the interactive demo
|
||||
node demo-codegen.js
|
||||
|
||||
# View the integration example
|
||||
# Open example-integration.html in a browser
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Implementation Notes
|
||||
|
||||
The code generator:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Traverses the AST** - Visits each node and generates appropriate code
|
||||
2. **Maintains context** - Tracks current jQuery element for appending
|
||||
3. **Handles nesting** - For loops create temporary containers
|
||||
4. **Strips syntax** - Removes trailing colons from control flow
|
||||
5. **Escapes strings** - Properly escapes text content for JavaScript
|
||||
|
||||
### v1 JavaScript Compilation Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
A comprehensive analysis of how JQHTML v1 compiles templates to JavaScript has been documented in [JQHTML_V1_JAVASCRIPT_COMPILATION_PATTERNS.md](../../JQHTML_V1_JAVASCRIPT_COMPILATION_PATTERNS.md). This analysis reveals:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Instruction-based output**: Templates compile to arrays of rendering instructions
|
||||
- **Three instruction types**: `{tag:...}`, `{comp:...}`, `{block:...}`
|
||||
- **Context preservation**: The `_that = this` pattern for nested functions
|
||||
- **Single-pass DOM construction**: Efficient rendering with one `$.html()` call
|
||||
- **Deferred component initialization**: Two-phase process for component creation
|
||||
|
||||
These patterns inform v2 implementation decisions, particularly around maintaining the efficient instruction-based architecture while modernizing the JavaScript output.
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Status (December 2024)
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Completed Tasks
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Lexer** - Full tokenization with position tracking
|
||||
2. **Parser** - AST generation with all v2 syntax
|
||||
3. **Code Generator** - Instruction array generation
|
||||
4. **Component Integration** - Runtime integration complete
|
||||
5. **Slot System** - `<#name>` syntax fully implemented
|
||||
6. **Nested Components** - `<ComponentName>` recognition
|
||||
7. **Binding Syntax** - `:prop` and `@event` support
|
||||
|
||||
### Current Features
|
||||
|
||||
- **Template Syntax**: HTML with embedded JavaScript
|
||||
- **Control Flow**: `if/else/elseif` and `for` loops (both colon and brace styles)
|
||||
- **Components**: `<Define:Name>` definitions and `<ComponentName>` invocations
|
||||
- **Slots**: `<#name>content</#name>` and `<#name />` syntax
|
||||
- **Expressions**: `<%= expression %>` for output
|
||||
- **Bindings**: `:text`, `:value`, `:class`, `:style` for data binding
|
||||
- **Events**: `@click`, `@change`, etc. for event handlers
|
||||
- **Scoped IDs**: `$sid` attribute for component-scoped IDs
|
||||
|
||||
### Instruction Format
|
||||
|
||||
The parser generates v1-compatible instruction arrays:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// HTML tags
|
||||
{tag: ["div", {"class": "card"}, false]} // open tag
|
||||
{tag: ["div", {}, true]} // close tag
|
||||
|
||||
// Components
|
||||
{comp: ["UserCard", {name: "John"}]}
|
||||
|
||||
// Slots
|
||||
{slot: ["header", {}, (props) => {
|
||||
const _output = [];
|
||||
_output.push("Header content");
|
||||
return [_output, this];
|
||||
}]}
|
||||
|
||||
// Text content
|
||||
"Plain text"
|
||||
|
||||
// Expressions
|
||||
{expr: () => this.data.title}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Integration with Core
|
||||
|
||||
Templates compile to functions that return `[instructions, context]`:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
function render() {
|
||||
const _output = [];
|
||||
|
||||
// Generate instructions...
|
||||
_output.push({tag: ["h1", {}, false]});
|
||||
_output.push("Hello World");
|
||||
_output.push({tag: ["h1", {}, true]});
|
||||
|
||||
return [_output, this];
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The core runtime's instruction processor handles these arrays to create DOM.
|
||||
|
||||
### Next Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Build Tools** - Webpack loader for `.jqhtml` imports
|
||||
2. **Source Maps** - Full debugging support
|
||||
3. **VS Code Extension** - Syntax highlighting
|
||||
4. **Autoformatter** - Code formatting for `.jqhtml` files
