TypeScript compiler wrapper. Provides a simple way to navigate and manipulate TypeScript and JavaScript code.

## Library Development - Progress Update (04 December 2017)

Most common navigation and code manipulation/generation use cases are implemented, but there's still a lot of work to do.

Please open an issue if find a feature missing or bug that isn't in the issue tracker.

## Documentation

Work in progress: https://dsherret.github.io/ts-simple-ast/

## Example

```typescript
import Ast from "ts-simple-ast";

// add source files to ast
const ast = new Ast();
const sourceFile = ast.createSourceFile("MyFile.ts", "enum MyEnum {}\nlet myEnum: MyEnum;\nexport default MyEnum;");
ast.addExistingSourceFiles("folder/**/*{.d.ts,.ts}");
ast.addExistingSourceFiles("otherFolder/file.ts", "specifyAnotherFile.ts", "orAnotherGlob/**/*.ts");
ast.createSourceFile("misc.ts", {
    classes: [{
        name: "SomeClass",
        isExported: true
    }],
    enums: [{
        name: "SomeEnum",
        isExported: true,
        members: [{ name: "member" }]
    }]
});

// get information from ast
const enumDeclaration = sourceFile.getEnumOrThrow("MyEnum");
enumDeclaration.getName();          // returns: "MyEnum"
enumDeclaration.hasExportKeyword(); // returns: false
enumDeclaration.isDefaultExport();  // returns: true

// manipulate ast
enumDeclaration.rename("NewName");
enumDeclaration.addMember({
    name: "myNewMember"
});
enumDeclaration.setIsDefaultExport(false);

// result
sourceFile.getFullText(); // returns: "enum NewName {\n    myNewMember\n}\nlet myEnum: NewName;"
sourceFile.save();        // save it to MyFile.ts

// get underlying compiler node from the typescript AST from any node
const sourceFileCompilerNode = sourceFile.compilerNode;
```

Or navigate existing compiler nodes created outside this library:

```typescript
import * as ts from "typescript";
import {createWrappedNode, ClassDeclaration} from "ts-simple-ast";

// some code that creates a class declaration (could be any kind of ts.Node)
const classNode: ts.ClassDeclaration = ...; 

// create and use a wrapped node
const classDec = createWrappedNode(classNode) as ClassDeclaration;
const firstProperty = classDec.getProperties()[0];

// ... do more stuff here ...
```
