$ npm i find-entry-points
Given a sync or async iterable of paths to the JavaScript files with the
following dependencies between them (a directed arrow from a.js
to b.js
means a.js
imports b.js
):
The findEntryPoints
function would return [['a.js']]
because a.js
is the
entry point of the above JavaScript library or application (it is not imported
by any JavaScript file). The findSingleEntryPoints
function would return
['a.js']
.
Given a sync or async iterable of paths to the JavaScript files with the following dependencies between them:
The findEntryPoints
function would return [['a.js'], ['f.js'], ['g.js']]
(order not guaranteed) because a.js
, f.js
, and g.js
are all not imported
by any JavaScript file. Notice that it is possible to have a disconnected
dependency graph. The findSingleEntryPoints
function would return
['a.js', 'f.js', 'g.js']
(order not guaranteed).
Given a sync or async iterable of paths to the JavaScript files with the following dependencies between them:
The findEntryPoints
function would return [['a.js'], ['g.js']]
(order not
guaranteed). Notice that cycles are possible because imports are cached. The
findSingleEntryPoints
function would return ['a.js', 'g.js']
(order not
guaranteed).
Given a sync or async iterable of paths to the JavaScript files with the following dependencies between them:
The findEntryPoints
function would return
[['a.js'], ['g.js', 'h.js', 'i.js']]
(order not guaranteed). Notice that this
is the first example where an inner array contains more than one element. This
is because g.js
, h.js
, and i.js
are all valid entry points for their graph
component. The findSingleEntryPoints
function would return ['a.js']
(order
not guaranteed).
Suppose the JavaScript files with the following dependencies between them are
all in a src
directory and that h.js
imports i.js
via a dynamic import:
import { findEntryPoints, findSingleEntryPoints } from 'find-entry-points'
import globby from 'globby'
import * as swc from '@swc/core'
// `globby.stream` returns an async iterable of file paths
console.log(await findEntryPoints(globby.stream('src/**/*.js')))
//=> [['src/a.js'], ['src/g.js', 'src/h.js', 'src/i.js']]
// `findSingleEntryPoints` ignores cyclic entry points
console.log(await findSingleEntryPoints(globby.stream('src/**/*.js')))
// => ['src/a.js']
console.log(
await findEntryPoints(globby.stream('src/**/*.js'), {
followDynamicImports: false
})
)
//=> [['src/a.js'], ['src/i.js']]
console.log(
await findSingleEntryPoints(globby.stream('src/**/*.js'), {
followDynamicImports: false
})
)
// => ['src/a.js', 'src/i.js']
// Use the `transform` option to transform non-standard syntax
// like JSX to standard ECMAScript so that imports can be parsed
console.log(
await findEntryPoints(globby.stream('src/**/*.js'), {
transform: async ({ path, code }) =>
(
await transform(code, {
filename: path,
jsc: { parser: { jsx: true } }
})
).code
})
)
//=> [['src/a.js'], ['src/g.js', 'src/h.js', 'src/i.js']]
console.log(
await findSingleEntryPoints(globby.stream('src/**/*.js'), {
transform: async ({ path, code }) =>
(
await transform(code, {
filename: path,
jsc: { parser: { jsx: true } }
})
).code
})
)
//=> ['src/a.js']
// Use the `parseImports` option to parse imports yourself
console.log(
await findEntryPoints(globby.stream('src/**/*.js'), {
parseImports: async ({ followDynamicImports, file }) => {
const { path, read } = file
// Read the file if you want
const code = await read()
const importedFilenames = yourFancyImportParser(code)
return importedFilenames
}
})
)
See the commented type definitions for clarification.
The package uses
parse-imports
(another
package of mine) to construct a dependency graph, which is a
directed graph,
from the given set of JavaScript files. Then the package finds the
strongly connected components
of the dependency graph using
Tarjan's strongly connected components algorithm,
and constructs a
directed acyclic graph from the strongly connected components.
Finally, the package returns the strongly connected components corresponding to
the vertices with
in-degree
1 in the new directed acyclic graph.
