API

parse(query: string): ParseResult

Parses a query and returns the parse tree as a Protocol Buffer message.

Usage in libpg_query documentation.

import { parse, ParseResult } from "libpg-query-wasm";
import { strict as assert } from "node:assert";

const message = parse("SELECT 1");
assert.deepEqual(ParseResult.toObject(message, { enums: String }), {
  stmts: [
    {
      stmt: {
        selectStmt: {
          limitOption: "LIMIT_OPTION_DEFAULT",
          op: "SETOP_NONE",
          targetList: [
            {
              resTarget: {
                location: 7,
                val: { aConst: { ival: { ival: 1 }, location: 7 } },
              },
            },
          ],
        },
      },
    },
  ],
  version: 150001,
});

fingerprint(query: string): string

Parses a query and returns the fingerprint of the parse tree as a hex string. Fingerprinting allows you to identify similar queries.

Usage in libpg_query documentation.

import { fingerprint } from "libpg-query-wasm";
import { strict as assert } from "node:assert";

const hex = fingerprint("select 1");
assert.equal(hex, "50fde20626009aba");

scan(query: string): ScanResult

Scans a query and returns the tokens as a Protocol Buffer message.

Usage in libpg_query documentation.

import { scan, ScanResult } from "libpg-query-wasm";
import { strict as assert } from "node:assert";

const message = scan("select * from table -- comment");
assert.deepEqual(ScanResult.toObject(message, { enums: String }), {
  version: 150001,
  tokens: [
    { end: 6, token: "SELECT", keywordKind: "RESERVED_KEYWORD" },
    { start: 7, end: 8, token: "ASCII_42" },
    { start: 9, end: 13, token: "FROM", keywordKind: "RESERVED_KEYWORD" },
    { start: 14, end: 19, token: "TABLE", keywordKind: "RESERVED_KEYWORD" },
    { start: 20, end: 30, token: "SQL_COMMENT" },
  ],
});

parsePLpgSQL(functionSource: string): Array<Record<string, any>>

Parse a PL/pgSQL functions from given source and return the parse trees.

Usage in libpg_query documentation.

import { parsePLpgSQL } from "libpg-query-wasm";
import { strict as assert } from "node:assert";

const functions = parsePLpgSQL(`
CREATE FUNCTION f() RETURNS integer AS $$
BEGIN
    RETURN 1;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;`);
assert.deepEqual(functions, [
  {
    PLpgSQL_function: {
      action: {
        PLpgSQL_stmt_block: {
          body: [
            {
              PLpgSQL_stmt_return: {
                expr: { PLpgSQL_expr: { query: "1" } },
                lineno: 3,
              },
            },
          ],
          lineno: 2,
        },
      },
      datums: [
        {
          PLpgSQL_var: {
            datatype: { PLpgSQL_type: { typname: "UNKNOWN" } },
            refname: "found",
          },
        },
      ],
    },
  },
]);

Using protocol buffers

Some functions return a Protocol Buffer message instance. Using these messages gives you access to the original fields with the correct types. If you'd rather use plain objects you can use the toObject static method to convert the message.

We use the protobuf.js library to decode the messages returned by libpg_query. It's also used to generate the Typescript types. You can find more information about the usage of the messages in the protobufjs documentation.

The full generated protobufjs module and Typescript types are available as the pg_query export from this package.

import { scan, pg_query } from "libpg-query-wasm";
import { strict as assert } from "node:assert";

const message = scan("select 1");
assert.equal(message.tokens[0].token, pg_query.Token.SELECT);
