## README

# esutils [![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/estools/esutils.svg)](http://travis-ci.org/estools/esutils)
esutils ([esutils](http://github.com/estools/esutils)) is
utility box for ECMAScript language tools.

## API

## `ast` 

### `ast.isExpression(node)` 

Returns `true` if `node` is an `Expression` as defined in ECMA262 edition 5.1 section
[11](https://es5.github.io/#x11).

### `ast.isStatement(node)` 

Returns `true` if `node` is a `Statement` as defined in ECMA262 edition 5.1 section
[12](https://es5.github.io/#x12).

### `ast.isIterationStatement(node)` 

Returns `true` if `node` is an `IterationStatement` as defined in ECMA262 edition
5.1 section [12.6](https://es5.github.io/#x12.6).

### `ast.isSourceElement(node)` 

Returns `true` if `node` is a `SourceElement` as defined in ECMA262 edition 5.1
section [14](https://es5.github.io/#x14).

### `ast.trailingStatement(node)` 

Returns `Statement?` if `node` has trailing `Statement`.
```js
if (cond)
    consequent;
```
When taking this `IfStatement`, returns `consequent;` statement.

### `ast.isProblematicIfStatement(node)` 

Returns `true` if `node` is a problematic `IfStatement`. If `node` is a problematic `IfStatement`, `node` cannot be represented as an one-to-one JavaScript code.
```js
{
    type: 'IfStatement',
    consequent: {
        type: 'WithStatement',
        body: {
            type: 'IfStatement',
            consequent: {type: 'EmptyStatement'}
        }
    },
    alternate: {type: 'EmptyStatement'}
}
```
The above node cannot be represented as a JavaScript code, since the top level `else` alternate belongs to an inner `IfStatement`.


## `code` 

### `code.isDecimalDigit(code)` 

Return `true` if provided code is decimal digit.

### `code.isHexDigit(code)` 

Return `true` if provided code is hexadecimal digit.

### `code.isOctalDigit(code)` 

Return `true` if provided code is octal digit.

### `code.isWhiteSpace(code)` 

Return `true` if provided code is white space. 
White space characters are formally defined in ECMA262.

### `code.isLineTerminator(code)` 

Return `true` if provided code is line terminator. 
Line terminator characters are formally defined in ECMA262.

### `code.isIdentifierStart(code)` 

Return `true` if provided code can be the first character of ECMA262 `Identifier`. 
They are formally defined in ECMA262.

### `code.isIdentifierPart(code)` 

Return `true` if provided code can be the trailing character of ECMA262 `Identifier`. 
They are formally defined in ECMA262.

## `keyword` 

### `keyword.isKeywordES5(id, strict)` 

Returns `true` if provided identifier string is a Keyword or Future Reserved Word
in ECMA262 edition 5.1. 
They are formally defined in ECMA262 sections
[7.6.1.1](http://es5.github.io/#x7.6.1.1) and [7.6.1.2](http://es5.github.io/#x7.6.1.2),
respectively. 
If the `strict` flag is truthy, this function additionally checks whether
`id` is a `Keyword` or `FutureReservedWord` under strict mode.

### `keyword.isKeywordES6(id, strict)` 

Returns `true` if provided identifier string is a `Keyword` or `FutureReservedWord`
in ECMA262 edition 6. 
They are formally defined in ECMA262 sections
[11.6.2.1](http://ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-keywords) and
[11.6.2.2](http://ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-future-reserved-words),
respectively. 
If the `strict` flag is truthy, this function additionally checks whether
`id` is a `Keyword` or `FutureReservedWord` under strict mode.

### `keyword.isReservedWordES5(id, strict)` 

Returns `true` if provided identifier string is a `ReservedWord` in ECMA262 edition 5.1.
They are formally defined in ECMA262 section [7.6.1](http://es5.github.io/#x7.6.1).
If the `strict` flag is truthy, this function additionally checks whether `id`
is a `ReservedWord` under strict mode.

### `keyword.isReservedWordES6(id, strict)` 

Returns `true` if provided identifier string is a `ReservedWord` in ECMA262 edition 6.
They are formally defined in ECMA262 section [11.6.2](http://ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-reserved-words).
If the `strict` flag is truthy, this function additionally checks whether `id`
is a `ReservedWord` under strict mode.

### `keyword.isRestrictedWord(id)` 

Returns `true` if provided identifier string is one of `eval` or `arguments`.
They are restricted in strict mode code throughout ECMA262 edition 5.1 and
in ECMA262 edition 6 section [12.1.1](http://ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-identifiers-static-semantics-early-errors).

### `keyword.isIdentifierNameES5(id)` 

Return `true` if provided identifier string is an `IdentifierName` as specified in
ECMA262 edition 5.1 section [7.6](https://es5.github.io/#x7.6).

### `keyword.isIdentifierNameES6(id)` 

Return `true` if provided identifier string is an `IdentifierName` as specified in
ECMA262 edition 6 section [11.6](http://ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-names-and-keywords).

### `keyword.isIdentifierES5(id, strict)` 

Return `true` if provided identifier string is an `Identifier` as specified in
ECMA262 edition 5.1 section [7.6](https://es5.github.io/#x7.6). 
If the `strict` flag is truthy, this function additionally checks whether `id` 
is an `Identifier` under strict mode.

### `keyword.isIdentifierES6(id, strict)` 

Return `true` if provided identifier string is an `Identifier` as specified in
ECMA262 edition 6 section [12.1](http://ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-identifiers).
If the `strict` flag is truthy, this function additionally checks whether `id`
is an `Identifier` under strict mode.
