# @jridgewell/gen-mapping

> Generate source maps

`gen-mapping` allows you to generate a source map during transpilation or minification.
With a source map, you're able to trace the original location in the source file, either in Chrome's
DevTools or using a library like [`@jridgewell/trace-mapping`][trace-mapping].

You may already be familiar with the [`source-map`][source-map] package's `SourceMapGenerator`. This
provides the same `addMapping` and `setSourceContent` API.

## Installation

```sh
npm install @jridgewell/gen-mapping
```

## Usage

```typescript
import { GenMapping, addMapping, setSourceContent, toEncodedMap, toDecodedMap } from '@jridgewell/gen-mapping';

const map = new GenMapping({
  file: 'output.js',
  sourceRoot: 'https://example.com/',
});

setSourceContent(map, 'input.js', `function foo() {}`);

addMapping(map, {
  // Lines start at line 1, columns at column 0.
  generated: { line: 1, column: 0 },
  source: 'input.js',
  original: { line: 1, column: 0 },
});

addMapping(map, {
  generated: { line: 1, column: 9 },
  source: 'input.js',
  original: { line: 1, column: 9 },
  name: 'foo',
});

assert.deepEqual(toDecodedMap(map), {
  version: 3,
  file: 'output.js',
  names: ['foo'],
  sourceRoot: 'https://example.com/',
  sources: ['input.js'],
  sourcesContent: ['function foo() {}'],
  mappings: [
    [ [0, 0, 0, 0], [9, 0, 0, 9, 0] ]
  ],
});

assert.deepEqual(toEncodedMap(map), {
  version: 3,
  file: 'output.js',
  names: ['foo'],
  sourceRoot: 'https://example.com/',
  sources: ['input.js'],
  sourcesContent: ['function foo() {}'],
  mappings: 'AAAA,SAASA',
});
```

### Smaller Sourcemaps

Not everything needs to be added to a sourcemap, and needless markings can cause signficantly
larger file sizes. `gen-mapping` exposes `maybeAddSegment`/`maybeAddMapping` APIs that will
intelligently determine if this marking adds useful information. If not, the marking will be
skipped.

```typescript
import { maybeAddMapping } from '@jridgewell/gen-mapping';

const map = new GenMapping();

// Adding a sourceless marking at the beginning of a line isn't useful.
maybeAddMapping(map, {
  generated: { line: 1, column: 0 },
});

// Adding a new source marking is useful.
maybeAddMapping(map, {
  generated: { line: 1, column: 0 },
  source: 'input.js',
  original: { line: 1, column: 0 },
});

// But adding another marking pointing to the exact same original location isn't, even if the
// generated column changed.
maybeAddMapping(map, {
  generated: { line: 1, column: 9 },
  source: 'input.js',
  original: { line: 1, column: 0 },
});

assert.deepEqual(toEncodedMap(map), {
  version: 3,
  names: [],
  sources: ['input.js'],
  sourcesContent: [null],
  mappings: 'AAAA',
});
```
