Use `BindingIdentifier` instead of `IdentifierName` so that AST visitors can access the bound symbol id for the namespace's name. This makes namespace consistent with other named declarations, such as `Class`, `Function`, and `TSInterfaceDeclaration`.
We should consider modifying `TSModuleDeclarationName::StringLiteral(...)` to also store a `symbol_id`, since one gets bound in semantic for it as well.
Quality-of-life improvement for invalid `const` modifiers on class elements. Instead of panicking, the parser will eat `const` and report it as an error.
```ts
class C {
static const H = 1;
}
```
Move post-transform checker into a `tasks` crate. It doesn't feel like it belongs in `oxc_semantic`. It also feels like too heavy a lump of code to put in `tasks/common`.
This PR makes 2 changes to improve the existing API that are not very useful.
- Remove `(Literal)Parser` and `FlagsParser` and their ASTs
- Add `with_flags(flags_text)` helper to `ParserOptions`
Here are the details.
> Remove `(Literal)Parser` and `FlagsParser` and their ASTs
Previously, the `oxc_regular_expression` crate exposed 3 parsers.
- `(Literal)Parser`: assumes `/pattern/flags` format
- `PatternParser`: assumes `pattern` part only
- `FlagsParser`: assumes `flags` part only
However, it turns out that in actual usecases, only the `PatternParser` is actually sufficient, as the pattern and flags are validated and sliced in advance on the `oxc_parser` side.
The current usecase for `(Literal)Parser` is mostly for internal testing.
There were also some misuses of `(Literal)Parser` that restore `format!("/{pattern}/{flags}")` back and use `(Literal)Parser`.
Therefore, only `PatternParser` is now published, and unnecessary ASTs have been removed.
(This also obsoletes #5592 .)
> Added `with_flags(flags_text)` helper to `ParserOptions`
Strictly speaking, there was a subtle difference between the "flag" strings that users were aware of and the "mode" recognised by the parser.
Therefore, it was a common mistake to forget to enable `unicode_mode` when using the `v` flag.
With this helper, crate users no longer need to distinguish between flags and modes.
An alternative version of #6177.
Convert `ModuleImports` into a common transform. Works much as before, but it inserts `import` / `require` statements by passing them to `TopLevelStatements` common transform, so they get inserted in one go with any other inserted top-level statements. This avoids shuffling up the `Vec<Statement>` multiple times, which can be slow with large files.
`VarDeclarations` also inserts any declarations via `TopLevelStatements` but runs after `ModuleImports`, so can control whether a `var` statement is inserted before or after `import` statements by inserting it via `VarDeclarations` (to appear after `import` statements) or directly into `TopLevelStatements` (to appear before `import` statements). Insertion order is not actually important, but allows us to match Babel's output and pass its tests.
`SymbolFlags::ArrowFunction` is an oddity, as whether a symbol is an arrow function is not statically knowable. In the following cases, `f` symbol did not have `ArrowFunction` flag set:
```js
const {f} = {f: () => {}};
```
```js
let f = 123;
f = () => {};
```
`SymbolFlags::ArrowFunction` is therefore not particularly useful, and possibly misleading. Having it complicates the transformer, and it's not used anywhere in Oxc.
This PR removes it.
### Difference
In `enter_expression`: Recursive transform JSX
In `exit_expression`: Deep first transform
After the change, `transform_jsx` still has a lot of room for improvement.
I expect small performance regression.
But managed to improve the following case from react.developmement.js

See https://babel.dev/docs/options#misc-options for background on `unambiguous`
Once `SourceType::Unambiguous` is parsed, it will correctly set the returned `Program::source_type` to either `module` or `script`.
This also removes the confusing `SourceType::always_strict` field.
I hacked it with `SourceType::always_strict`, but what we actually want is add `'use strict'`.
This is technically a breaking change but I don't expect anyone using this outside of oxc.
The snapshot has a large diff due to every single line shifting by 1 row :-/
