# 编译入口

当我们使用 Runtime + Compiler 的 Vue.js,它的入口是 src/platforms/web/entry-runtime-with-compiler.js,看一下它对 $mount 函数的定义:

const mount = Vue.prototype.$mount
Vue.prototype.$mount = function (
  el?: string | Element,
  hydrating?: boolean
): Component {
  el = el && query(el)

  /* istanbul ignore if */
  if (el === document.body || el === document.documentElement) {
    process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production' && warn(
      `Do not mount Vue to <html> or <body> - mount to normal elements instead.`
    )
    return this
  }

  const options = this.$options
  // resolve template/el and convert to render function
  if (!options.render) {
    let template = options.template
    if (template) {
      if (typeof template === 'string') {
        if (template.charAt(0) === '#') {
          template = idToTemplate(template)
          /* istanbul ignore if */
          if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production' && !template) {
            warn(
              `Template element not found or is empty: ${options.template}`,
              this
            )
          }
        }
      } else if (template.nodeType) {
        template = template.innerHTML
      } else {
        if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production') {
          warn('invalid template option:' + template, this)
        }
        return this
      }
    } else if (el) {
      template = getOuterHTML(el)
    }
    if (template) {
      /* istanbul ignore if */
      if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production' && config.performance && mark) {
        mark('compile')
      }

      const { render, staticRenderFns } = compileToFunctions(template, {
        shouldDecodeNewlines,
        shouldDecodeNewlinesForHref,
        delimiters: options.delimiters,
        comments: options.comments
      }, this)
      options.render = render
      options.staticRenderFns = staticRenderFns

      /* istanbul ignore if */
      if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production' && config.performance && mark) {
        mark('compile end')
        measure(`vue ${this._name} compile`, 'compile', 'compile end')
      }
    }
  }
  return mount.call(this, el, hydrating)
}

这段函数逻辑之前分析过,关于编译的入口就是在这里:

const { render, staticRenderFns } =  compileToFunctions(template, {
    shouldDecodeNewlines,
    shouldDecodeNewlinesForHref,
    delimiters: options.delimiters,
    comments: options.comments
  }, this)
options.render = render
options.staticRenderFns = staticRenderFns

compileToFunctions 方法就是把模板 template 编译生成 render 以及 staticRenderFns,它的定义在 src/platforms/web/compiler/index.js 中:

import { baseOptions } from './options'
import { createCompiler } from 'compiler/index'

const { compile, compileToFunctions } = createCompiler(baseOptions)

export { compile, compileToFunctions }

可以看到 compileToFunctions 方法实际上是 createCompiler 方法的返回值,该方法接收一个编译配置参数,接下来我们来看一下 createCompiler 方法的定义,在 src/compiler/index.js 中:

// `createCompilerCreator` allows creating compilers that use alternative
// parser/optimizer/codegen, e.g the SSR optimizing compiler.
// Here we just export a default compiler using the default parts.
export const createCompiler = createCompilerCreator(function baseCompile (
  template: string,
  options: CompilerOptions
): CompiledResult {
  const ast = parse(template.trim(), options)
  if (options.optimize !== false) {
    optimize(ast, options)
  }
  const code = generate(ast, options)
  return {
    ast,
    render: code.render,
    staticRenderFns: code.staticRenderFns
  }
})

createCompiler 方法实际上是通过调用 createCompilerCreator 方法返回的,该方法传入的参数是一个函数,真正的编译过程都在这个 baseCompile 函数里执行,那么 createCompilerCreator 又是什么呢,它的定义在 src/compiler/create-compiler.js 中:

export function createCompilerCreator (baseCompile: Function): Function {
  return function createCompiler (baseOptions: CompilerOptions) {
    function compile (
      template: string,
      options?: CompilerOptions
    ): CompiledResult {
      const finalOptions = Object.create(baseOptions)
      const errors = []
      const tips = []
      finalOptions.warn = (msg, tip) => {
        (tip ? tips : errors).push(msg)
      }

      if (options) {
        // merge custom modules
        if (options.modules) {
          finalOptions.modules =
            (baseOptions.modules || []).concat(options.modules)
        }
        // merge custom directives
        if (options.directives) {
          finalOptions.directives = extend(
            Object.create(baseOptions.directives || null),
            options.directives
          )
        }
        // copy other options
        for (const key in options) {
          if (key !== 'modules' && key !== 'directives') {
            finalOptions[key] = options[key]
          }
        }
      }

      const compiled = baseCompile(template, finalOptions)
      if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production') {
        errors.push.apply(errors, detectErrors(compiled.ast))
      }
      compiled.errors = errors
      compiled.tips = tips
      return compiled
    }

    return {
      compile,
      compileToFunctions: createCompileToFunctionFn(compile)
    }
  }
}

可以看到该方法返回了一个 createCompiler 的函数,它接收一个 baseOptions 的参数,返回的是一个对象,包括 compile 方法属性和 compileToFunctions 属性,这个 compileToFunctions 对应的就是 $mount 函数调用的 compileToFunctions 方法,它是调用 createCompileToFunctionFn 方法的返回值,我们接下来看一下 createCompileToFunctionFn 方法,它的定义在 src/compiler/to-function/js 中:

export function createCompileToFunctionFn (compile: Function): Function {
  const cache = Object.create(null)

  return function compileToFunctions (
    template: string,
    options?: CompilerOptions,
    vm?: Component
  ): CompiledFunctionResult {
    options = extend({}, options)
    const warn = options.warn || baseWarn
    delete options.warn

    /* istanbul ignore if */
    if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production') {
      // detect possible CSP restriction
      try {
        new Function('return 1')
      } catch (e) {
        if (e.toString().match(/unsafe-eval|CSP/)) {
          warn(
            'It seems you are using the standalone build of Vue.js in an ' +
            'environment with Content Security Policy that prohibits unsafe-eval. ' +
            'The template compiler cannot work in this environment. Consider ' +
            'relaxing the policy to allow unsafe-eval or pre-compiling your ' +
            'templates into render functions.'
          )
        }
      }
    }

    // check cache
    const key = options.delimiters
      ? String(options.delimiters) + template
      : template
    if (cache[key]) {
      return cache[key]
    }

    // compile
    const compiled = compile(template, options)

    // check compilation errors/tips
    if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production') {
      if (compiled.errors && compiled.errors.length) {
        warn(
          `Error compiling template:\n\n${template}\n\n` +
          compiled.errors.map(e => `- ${e}`).join('\n') + '\n',
          vm
        )
      }
      if (compiled.tips && compiled.tips.length) {
        compiled.tips.forEach(msg => tip(msg, vm))
      }
    }

    // turn code into functions
    const res = {}
    const fnGenErrors = []
    res.render = createFunction(compiled.render, fnGenErrors)
    res.staticRenderFns = compiled.staticRenderFns.map(code => {
      return createFunction(code, fnGenErrors)
    })

    // check function generation errors.
    // this should only happen if there is a bug in the compiler itself.
    // mostly for codegen development use
    /* istanbul ignore if */
    if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production') {
      if ((!compiled.errors || !compiled.errors.length) && fnGenErrors.length) {
        warn(
          `Failed to generate render function:\n\n` +
          fnGenErrors.map(({ err, code }) => `${err.toString()} in\n\n${code}\n`).join('\n'),
          vm
        )
      }
    }

    return (cache[key] = res)
  }
}

至此我们总算找到了 compileToFunctions 的最终定义,它接收 3 个参数、编译模板 template,编译配置 options 和 Vue 实例 vm。核心的编译过程就一行代码:

const compiled = compile(template, options)

compile 函数在执行 createCompileToFunctionFn 的时候作为参数传入,它是 createCompiler 函数中定义的 compile 函数,如下:

function compile (
  template: string,
  options?: CompilerOptions
): CompiledResult {
  const finalOptions = Object.create(baseOptions)
  const errors = []
  const tips = []
  finalOptions.warn = (msg, tip) => {
    (tip ? tips : errors).push(msg)
  }

  if (options) {
    // merge custom modules
    if (options.modules) {
      finalOptions.modules =
        (baseOptions.modules || []).concat(options.modules)
    }
    // merge custom directives
    if (options.directives) {
      finalOptions.directives = extend(
        Object.create(baseOptions.directives || null),
        options.directives
      )
    }
    // copy other options
    for (const key in options) {
      if (key !== 'modules' && key !== 'directives') {
        finalOptions[key] = options[key]
      }
    }
  }

  const compiled = baseCompile(template, finalOptions)
  if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production') {
    errors.push.apply(errors, detectErrors(compiled.ast))
  }
  compiled.errors = errors
  compiled.tips = tips
  return compiled
}

compile 函数执行的逻辑是先处理配置参数,真正执行编译过程就一行代码:

const compiled = baseCompile(template, finalOptions)

baseCompile 在执行 createCompilerCreator 方法时作为参数传入,如下:

export const createCompiler = createCompilerCreator(function baseCompile (
  template: string,
  options: CompilerOptions
): CompiledResult {
  const ast = parse(template.trim(), options)
  optimize(ast, options)
  const code = generate(ast, options)
  return {
    ast,
    render: code.render,
    staticRenderFns: code.staticRenderFns
  }
})

所以编译的入口我们终于找到了,它主要就是执行了如下几个逻辑:

  • 解析模板字符串生成 AST
const ast = parse(template.trim(), options)
  • 优化语法树
optimize(ast, options)
  • 生成代码
const code = generate(ast, options)

那么接下来的章节我会带大家去逐步分析这几个过程。

# 总结

编译入口逻辑之所以这么绕,是因为 Vue.js 在不同的平台下都会有编译的过程,因此编译过程中的依赖的配置 baseOptions 会有所不同。而编译过程会多次执行,但这同一个平台下每一次的编译过程配置又是相同的,为了不让这些配置在每次编译过程都通过参数传入,Vue.js 利用了函数柯里化的技巧很好的实现了 baseOptions 的参数保留。同样,Vue.js 也是利用函数柯里化技巧把基础的编译过程函数抽出来,通过 createCompilerCreator(baseCompile) 的方式把真正编译的过程和其它逻辑如对编译配置处理、缓存处理等剥离开,这样的设计还是非常巧妙的。
