@public @private @protected @readonly @override

Three notes:

  • I did not add support for BinaryExpressions yet because they don't have a Modifiers list. I think the right thing is to add it (along with a Type node), but I want to bring it up at a design meeting first.
  • I dropped the error messages with tag-specific wording for @override. This seems unnecessary to me -- people who use JS as TS are aware that's what they're doing.
  • I added a setModifiers method on nodeData and exposed it via a public AsMutable method on Node. I don't know if that's exactly the right way
    to do it.

Pull Request Overview

Adds support for five new JSDoc tags by reparsing comments into actual TypeScript modifiers.

  • Parses @public, @private, @protected, @readonly, and @override tags and injects corresponding modifiers into the AST.
  • Adjusts grammar checks to recognize modifiers inserted by the reparser and avoid spurious ordering errors.
  • Extends the AST API to allow mutation of modifier lists on nodes.

[nitpick] Consider implementing handling for BinaryExpression parent nodes (e.g. this.property = ... inside constructors) so that JSDoc modifiers on assignments are consistently applied, or remove the stray comment if unneeded.

Suggested change
// !!! BinaryExpression (this.p assignments)
// Handle JSDoc modifiers for declarations

I can't implement handling until I decide how to store modifiers for this.p=. Waiting on a decision at a design meeting.

The type of l.y has been widened to any after applying @readonly. It should remain number (or the literal type) to preserve type safety and avoid losing information.

No, it's because y is readonly now, so assignments to it are not allowed.

nodes = append(parent.Modifiers().Nodes, modifier)
loc = parent.Modifiers().Loc
}
parent.AsMutable().SetModifiers(p.newModifierList(loc, nodes))

Does this ever happen on any parent kind, or is there a specific subset of nodes that do this? I'm not entirely certain how I feel about the AsMutable pattern, so curious if it's just shorthand for a couple of types.
