there's probably some larger question about maintainability here since there are quite a few parsers that are capable of jsx + typescript these days beyond just the typescript parser, like @babel/parser, @typescript-parser/eslint, etc
I called out just the typescript parser as the primary one here - but alternatively, if a parser isn't defined here then we'll at least have the module.exports.parser so it'll be a bit more obvious what's needed to get jscodeshift less upset 🤔

🤷 Another alternative is to just downscope this entire feature to just adding the module.parser to the codeExample and call it there.

I think this is a good solution for now, even if it's just for jscodeshift. In the long term I want parsers and transformers to be more integrated. The current isolation of parsers and transformers is causing confusion and also limits how transformers can be used. |

This adds two new configuration options for transformers: - compatibleParserIDs - formatCodeExample compatibleParserIDs is used in SELECT_TRANSFORMER as an alternative to always resetting the parser when changing the transformer or turning it on. If we are already on a compatible parser, we won't change. formatCodeExample supports custom formatting/templating for code examples - in the case of jscodeshift, this is used to set the module.exports.parser based on current parser. In combination, this supports a workflows like: - Copy in a typescript file contents - Change the parser to typescript - Turn on the transform for jscodeshift

Hi @fkling! Wanted to follow up to see if there was anything else you'd like me to address. Thanks! :) |

Sorry, just not finding much time recently. |
Looking for a little discussion on approach! I use AST explorer only every so often and most recently I found myself stumbling a bit again when I tried to write a jscodeshift transform, and was only met with the error below:
Here's an attempt to demystify some of this by adding the
module.exports.parserdirectly to the code example (with a cute little formatter to automatically inject the "tsx" transformer)Here's a gif of the flow:
