latex-utensils
A LaTeX parser and utilities.
The parser is based on the following libraries:
Getting started
You can see LaTeX AST calling the luparse command. Without the option -i, you can obtain the output as JSON format.
$ cat sample/t.tex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\begin{document}
ab c
d $x + y$ e
\begin{align}
i + j
\end{align}
\end{document}
$ luparse --color -i sample/t.tex

kind: 'ast.root',
content: [
{
kind: 'command',
name: 'documentclass',
args: [
{
kind: 'arg.group',
content: [ { kind: 'text.string', content: 'article' } ]
}
]
},
{ kind: 'softbreak' },
{

name: 'usepackage',
args: [
{
kind: 'arg.group',
content: [ { kind: 'text.string', content: 'amsmath' } ]
}
]
},
{
kind: 'env',
name: 'document',
args: [],
content: [
{ kind: 'text.string', content: 'ab' },
{ kind: 'space' },
{ kind: 'text.string', content: 'c' },
{ kind: 'softbreak' },
{ kind: 'text.string', content: 'd' },

{ kind: 'math.character', content: 'x' },
{ kind: 'math.character', content: '+' },
{ kind: 'math.character', content: 'y' }
]
},
{ kind: 'space' },
{ kind: 'text.string', content: 'e' },
{
kind: 'env.math.align',
name: 'align',
args: [],
content: [
{ kind: 'math.character', content: 'i' },
{ kind: 'math.character', content: '+' },
{ kind: 'math.character', content: 'j' }
]
}
]
}
],
comment: undefined
}
$ luparse --help
Usage: luparse [options]
Options:
-i, --inspect use util.inspect to output AST
--color turn on the color option of util.inspect
-l, --location enable location
-c, --comment enable comment
-s, --start-rule [rule] set start rule. default is "Root".
-h, --help output usage information
Usage
A typical usage is calling latexParser.parse to parse LaTeX documents.
import {latexParser} from 'latex-utensils';
const texString = 'a $x+y$ b';
const ast = latexParser.parse(texString);
console.log(JSON.stringify(ast, undefined, ' '));latexParser.parse returns an AstRoot object if startRule is 'Root',
type AstRoot = {
kind: 'ast.root';
content: Node[];
comment?: Comment[];
