which will be `variable_declaration`. The parent node will now be this node.
### Granulator
### Concept
The granulator is a function that will try to fetch all desired information from a parent node.
### Default Granulator
The default granulator will use a data format like this one:
```lua
data = {
func = {
-- When the function is inside one of those
["local_variable_declaration|field|variable_declaration"] = {
["2"] = {
match = "function_definition",
extract = common_function_extractor,
},
},
-- When the function is in the root tree
["function_definition|function|local_function"] = {
["0"] = {
extract = common_function_extractor,
},
},
},
...
}
```
This means for our example, we found a parent node called `variable_declaration`. It'll fetch this data:
```lua
["local_variable_declaration|field|variable_declaration"] = {
["2"] = {
match = "function_definition",
extract = common_function_extractor,
},
},
```
This snippet means: From the parent node, try to execute the `extract` function from the second child called `function_definition`.
The extract function is important. It's here you'll parse the nodes and create a table corresponding the found content.
This is the extract function for lua functions:
```lua
local common_function_extractor = function(node)
local tree = {
{
retrieve = "first",
node_type = "parameters",
subtree = {
{ retrieve = "all", node_type = "identifier", extract = true },
{ retrieve = "all", node_type = "spread", extract = true },
},
},
{ retrieve = "first", node_type = "return_statement", extract = true },
}
local nodes = neogen.utilities.nodes:matching_nodes_from(node, tree)
local res = neogen.utilities.extractors:extract_from_matched(nodes)
return {
parameters = res.identifier,
vararg = res.spread,
return_statement = res.return_statement,
}
end
```
I exposed a function called `neogen.utilities.nodes:matching_nodes_from` which will try to generate a table of nodes following a tree
The tree in this example is very simple: from the node called `function_definition`, do:
- Retrieve the first node called `return_statement` and extract it
- From the first node called `parameters`, try to extract all nodes with name `identifier` and `spread`
The `neogen.utilities.extractors:extract_from_matched` takes the nodes table returned by the first function and will return a table containing the content of the nodes.
The granulator then return the table you want with the extracted values you want
### Generator
#### Concept
The generator will use the template provided in the language configuration and the extracted values from the granulator in order to create the annotations to be placed on the desired place.
#### Default Generator
The default generator uses a template format like this:
```lua
template = {
-- Which annotation convention to use
annotation_convention = "emmylua",
emmylua = {
{ nil, "- $1", { type = { "class", "func" } } }, -- add this string only on requested types
{ nil, "- $1", { no_results = true } }, -- Shows only when there's no results from the granulator
{ "parameters", "- @param %s $1|any" },
{ "vararg", "- @vararg $1|any" },
{ "return_statement", "- @return $1|any" },
{ "class_name", "- @class $1|any" },
{ "type", "- @type %s $1" },
},
ldoc = {
{ nil, "- $1", { no_results = true, type = { "func" } } },
{ nil, "- $1", { type = { "func" } } },
{ "parameters", " @tparam $1|any %s " },
{ "return_statement", " @treturn $1|any" },
},
},
```
The `annotation_convention` field will use the desired annotation template.
An annotation template is a set of tables, each one composed of 2 required params, and 1 optional table
- the name inside the granulator returned table
- the template to be formatted each time there is a value in the returned table from the granulator:
- Specifying `%s` will use the value from the table
- Adding `$1` will move the cursor there (with tab completion) if the user allowed it in the setup function
- the optional params:
- `no_results`: (bool, default false) will only use this field when there is no value returned by the granulator
- `type`: (string[], default nil) will only use this field for the required types. If not specified, will use this field for all types
