This is related to my last commit. I've updated all the JavaScript files to satisfy 'eslint-config-futagozaryuu', my eslint configuration.
I'm sure I've probally missed something, but I've run all NPM scripts and Gulp tasks, fixed any bugs that cropped up, and updated some stuff (mainly related to generated messages), so as far as I can, tell this conversion is over (I know I've probally jixed it just by saying this ;P).
This fixes the following ESLint error, which started to appear after
eslint/eslint#7424 was fixed:
/Users/dmajda/Programming/PEG.js/pegjs/lib/compiler/js.js
37:17 error Unnecessary escape character: \] no-useless-escape
This should fix broken Travis CI builds:
https://travis-ci.org/pegjs/pegjs/builds/180092802
Because arrow functions work rather differently than normal functions (a
bad design mistake if you ask me), I decided to be conservative with the
conversion.
I converted:
* event handlers
* callbacks
* arguments to Array.prototype.map & co.
* small standalone lambda functions
I didn't convert:
* functions assigned to object literal properties (the new shorthand
syntax would be better here)
* functions passed to "describe", "it", etc. in specs (because Jasmine
relies on dynamic "this")
See #442.
This is purely a mechanical change, not taking advantage of block scope
of "let" and "const". Minimizing variable scope will come in the next
commit.
In general, "var" is converted into "let" and "const" is used only for
immutable variables of permanent character (generally spelled in
ALL_CAPS). Using it for any immutable variable regardless on its
permanence would feel confusing.
Any code which is not transpiled and needs to run in ES6 environment
(examples, code in grammars embedded in specs, ...) is kept unchanged.
This is also true for code generated by PEG.js.
See #442.
Simplify regexps that specify ranges of characters to escape with "\xXX"
and "\uXXXX" in various escaping functions. Until now, these regexps
were (mostly) mutually exclusive with more selective regexps applied
before them, but this became a maintenance headache. I decided to
abandon the exclusivity, which allowed to simplify these regexps (at the
cost of introducing an ordering dependency).
