## What is this?

This is a very important utility for working with unist as it lets you walk the
tree.

## When should I use this?

You can use this utility when you want to walk the tree.
You can use [`unist-util-visit-parents`][github-vp] if you care about the
entire stack of parents.

## Install

This package is [ESM only][github-gist-esm].
In Node.js (version 16+),
install with [npm][npmjs-install]:

```sh
npm install unist-util-visit
```

In Deno with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:

```js
import {CONTINUE, EXIT, SKIP, visit} from 'https://esm.sh/unist-util-visit@5'
```

In browsers with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:

```html
<script type="module">
  import {CONTINUE, EXIT, SKIP, visit} from 'https://esm.sh/unist-util-visit@5?bundle'
</script>
```

## Use

```js
import {fromMarkdown} from 'mdast-util-from-markdown'
import {visit} from 'unist-util-visit'

const tree = fromMarkdown('Some *emphasis*, **strong**, and `code`.')

visit(tree, 'text', function (node, index, parent) {
  console.log([node.value, parent ? parent.type : index])
})
```

Yields:

```js
[ 'Some ', 'paragraph' ]
[ 'emphasis', 'emphasis' ]
[ ', ', 'paragraph' ]
[ 'strong', 'strong' ]
[ ', and ', 'paragraph' ]
[ '.', 'paragraph' ]
```

## API

This package exports the identifiers
[`CONTINUE`][api-continue],
[`EXIT`][api-exit],
[`SKIP`][api-skip], and
[`visit`][api-visit].
It exports the [TypeScript][] types
[`ActionTuple`][api-action-tuple],
[`Action`][api-action],
[`BuildVisitor`][api-build-visitor],
[`Index`][api-index],
[`Test`][api-test],
[`VisitorResult`][api-visitor-result], and
[`Visitor`][api-visitor].
There is no default export.

### `visit(tree[, test], visitor[, reverse])`

This function works exactly the same as
[`unist-util-visit-parents`][github-vp],
but [`Visitor`][api-visitor] has a different signature.

### `CONTINUE`

Continue traversing as normal (`true`).

### `EXIT`

Stop traversing immediately (`false`).

### `SKIP`

Do not traverse this node’s children (`'skip'`).

### `Action`

Union of the action types (TypeScript type).
See [`Action` in `unist-util-visit-parents`][github-vp-action].

### `ActionTuple`

List with an action and an index (TypeScript type).
See [`ActionTuple` in `unist-util-visit-parents`][github-vp-action-tuple].

### `BuildVisitor`

Build a typed `Visitor` function from a tree and a test (TypeScript type).
See [`BuildVisitor` in `unist-util-visit-parents`][github-vp-build-visitor].

### `Index`

Move to the sibling at `index` next (TypeScript type).
See [`Index` in `unist-util-visit-parents`][github-vp-index].

### `Test`

[`unist-util-is`][github-unist-util-is] compatible test
(TypeScript type).

### `Visitor`

Handle a node (matching `test`, if given) (TypeScript type).

Visitors are free to transform `node`.
They can also transform `parent`.

Replacing `node` itself, if `SKIP` is not returned, still causes its
descendants to be walked (which is a bug).

When adding or removing previous siblings of `node` (or next siblings, in
case of reverse), the `Visitor` should return a new `Index` to specify the
sibling to traverse after `node` is traversed.
Adding or removing next siblings of `node` (or previous siblings, in case
of reverse) is handled as expected without needing to return a new `Index`.

Removing the children property of `parent` still results in them being
traversed.

###### Parameters

* `node` ([`Node`][github-unist-node])
  — found node
* `index` (`number` or `undefined`)
  — index of `node` in `parent`
* `parent` ([`Node`][github-unist-node] or `undefined`)
  — parent of `node`

###### Returns

What to do next.

An `Index` is treated as a tuple of `[CONTINUE, Index]`.
An `Action` is treated as a tuple of `[Action]`.

Passing a tuple back only makes sense if the `Action` is `SKIP`.
When the `Action` is `EXIT`, that action can be returned.
When the `Action` is `CONTINUE`, `Index` can be returned.

### `VisitorResult`

Any value that can be returned from a visitor (TypeScript type).
See [`VisitorResult` in
`unist-util-visit-parents`][github-vp-visitor-result].

## Compatibility

Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained
versions of Node.js.

When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of
Node.
This means we try to keep the current release line, `unist-util-visit@^5`,
compatible with Node.js 16.
