Parse Framework was an initiative designed to provide a universal solution for lexing and parsing various language syntaxes, aiming to simplify the creation of tools like linters, formatters, and compilers. The package reached its last known stable version, `2.5.6`, before development under this name ceased. The project has since been officially deprecated and rebranded as 'Sparser'. Users of `parse-framework` are strongly advised to migrate to the `Sparser` package for ongoing maintenance, feature enhancements, bug fixes, and security updates, as `parse-framework` will not receive any further development. Its effective release cadence is now zero, making `Sparser` the active successor for all parsing-related needs that this framework aimed to address. Its key differentiator was its ambitious goal to be a comprehensive, 'parse everything' solution.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

Parser
import { Parser } from 'parse-framework';
const Parser = require('parse-framework');
For ESM environments. Using `require()` is a common mistake when migrating from CJS or in mixed environments. This package is deprecated; avoid new usage.
Lexer
import { Lexer } from 'parse-framework';
import Lexer from 'parse-framework';
Assuming Lexer was a named export for tokenization utilities. Avoid default imports if it's a named export. This package is deprecated; avoid new usage.
ParseFunction
import { parse as ParseFunction } from 'parse-framework';
import parse from 'parse-framework';
If a top-level 'parse' function was provided, it would likely be a named export. Renaming on import (`as ParseFunction`) is good practice to avoid conflicts. This package is deprecated; avoid new usage.

Demonstrates the historical usage pattern of `parse-framework` with a basic text parsing example, while explicitly highlighting its deprecated status and recommending migration to `Sparser`.

// IMPORTANT: 'parse-framework' is deprecated. Please migrate to 'Sparser'. // This example demonstrates how 'parse-framework' *might have been used*. // It is provided for historical context, not for active development. import { Parser } from 'parse-framework'; // In a real framework, grammar rules and parsing logic would be defined here. // This is a simplified mock to illustrate potential usage. class BasicTextParser extends Parser { constructor() { super(); console.log('[DEPRECATED] Initializing BasicTextParser from parse-framework.'); } parse(input) { if (typeof input !== 'string') { console.warn('[DEPRECATED] Input is not a string, attempting to coerce.'); input = String(input); } // Simulate parsing: split words and analyze basic structure. const tokens = input.toLowerCase().split(/\s+/).filter(Boolean); console.log(`[DEPRECATED] Processing input: "${input}"`); console.log(`[DEPRECATED] Identified tokens: ${JSON.stringify(tokens)}`); // Return a very basic Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) structure. return { type: 'Document', children: tokens.map(token => ({ type: 'Word', value: token })), tokenCount: tokens.length }; } } async function runDeprecatedParseExample() { const parser = new BasicTextParser(); const textToParse = "Hello world, this is a test string."; const result = parser.parse(textToParse); console.log("[DEPRECATED] Parsing result (simplified AST):", JSON.stringify(result, null, 2)); const numericInput = 12345; const numericResult = parser.parse(numericInput); console.log("[DEPRECATED] Parsing numeric input (coerced):", JSON.stringify(numericResult, null, 2)); console.warn("\nWARNING: The 'parse-framework' package is deprecated and no longer maintained. \nPlease transition to its successor, 'Sparser', for all new projects and existing migrations: https://www.npmjs.com/package/sparser"); } runDeprecatedParseExample();
Debug
Known issues
breakingThe `parse-framework` package has been officially deprecated and renamed to `Sparser`. All future development, maintenance, and bug fixes will occur under the `Sparser` package. Continuing to use `parse-framework` means no access to updates, security patches, or new features.
fix
Migrate all usage to the `sparser` package. This will involve updating package dependencies, `import` statements, and potentially adapting to any API changes introduced in `Sparser` (though efforts were made for a smooth transition, changes may exist).
affects: >=1.0.0
gotchaAttempting to install or use `parse-framework` in new projects will result in using an unsupported and unmaintained version of the parsing framework. This poses risks for security, stability, and compatibility with modern JavaScript ecosystems.
fix
Always install and use the `sparser` package instead. If you encounter old documentation or tutorials referencing `parse-framework`, substitute it with `sparser`.
affects: >=1.0.0
deprecatedAll versions of `parse-framework` are considered deprecated. There will be no further releases, security advisories, or community support for this package. This includes versions `1.1.1` through `2.5.6`.
fix
Update your `package.json` to replace `parse-framework` with `sparser` and then run `npm install` or `yarn install` to update your dependencies. Review the `Sparser` documentation for the latest API.
affects: >=1.0.0
Errors
Common errors & fixes
Module not found: Can't resolve 'parse-framework'
The package might not be installed, or more commonly, it has been removed from `node_modules` during a cleanup, or the `package.json` entry is missing.
fix
First, ensure `parse-framework` is listed in your `package.json`. If it is, run `npm install` or `yarn install`. However, as the package is deprecated, the recommended fix is to install `sparser` instead: `npm install sparser` or `yarn add sparser`, and update your imports.
TypeError: parse-framework is not a constructor
This error often occurs when attempting to `new` a module that is not a class or when mixing CommonJS `require` with ES Modules `import` for a package not designed for it, or trying to use a named export as a default.
fix
Verify your import statement (e.g., `import { Parser } from 'parse-framework';` vs `import Parser from 'parse-framework';`) against the package's actual exports. More importantly, migrate to `Sparser` where the API is actively maintained and documented.
