Encode/decode the mappings property of a sourcemap.
Sourcemaps are difficult to generate and manipulate, because the mappings property – the part that actually links the generated code back to the original source – is encoded using an obscure method called Variable-length quantity. On top of that, each segment in the mapping contains offsets rather than absolute indices, which means that you can't look at a segment in isolation – you have to understand the whole sourcemap.
This package makes the process slightly easier.
npm install sourcemap-codec
import { encode, decode } from 'sourcemap-codec'; var decoded = decode( ';EAEEA,EAAE,EAAC,CAAE;ECQY,UACC' ); assert.deepEqual( decoded, [ // the first line (of the generated code) has no mappings, // as shown by the starting semi-colon (which separates lines) [], // the second line contains four (comma-separated) segments [ // segments are encoded as you'd expect: // [ generatedCodeColumn, sourceIndex, sourceCodeLine, sourceCodeColumn, nameIndex ] // i.e. the first segment begins at column 2, and maps back to the second column // of the second line (both zero-based) of the 0th source, and uses the 0th // name in the `map.names` array [ 2, 0, 2, 2, 0 ], // the remaining segments are 4-length rather than 5-length, // because they don't map a name [ 4, 0, 2, 4 ], [ 6, 0, 2, 5 ], [ 7, 0, 2, 7 ] ], // the final line contains two segments [ [ 2, 1, 10, 19 ], [ 12, 1, 11, 20 ] ] ]); var encoded = encode( decoded ); assert.equal( encoded, ';EAEEA,EAAE,EAAC,CAAE;ECQY,UACC' );
