Report grammar errors for invalid decorator grammar #57749

rbuckton · 2024-03-12T18:31:32Z

This reports a grammar error when invalid syntax is used in a decorator expression that does not match the proposed syntax for Stage 3 Decorators. In addition, this adds quick fixes to add parentheses around the expression to make it valid.

This is a somewhat aggressive error as we previously were far more flexible for decorator expressions under --experimentalDecorators, which could mean new errors reported in existing code. Since parse and emit do not change, and since there is a quick-fix available, I'd like to try to go ahead with this change as is. However, if we feel it is too much of break, I can change the grammar check to only apply when targeting ES decorators.

Fixes #55336

Hey @jakebailey, I've packed this into an installable tgz. You can install it for testing by referencing it in your package.json like so:

{
    "devDependencies": {
        "typescript": "https://typescript.visualstudio.com/cf7ac146-d525-443c-b23c-0d58337efebc/_apis/build/builds/160317/artifacts?artifactName=tgz&fileId=7078521EA8FE0E59B92E23275A8C67308DE31F636FF34B76148571F54C2FB85402&fileName=/typescript-5.5.0-insiders.20240312.tgz"
    }
}

and then running npm install.

There is also a playground for this build and an npm module you can use via "typescript": "npm:@typescript-deploys/pr-build@5.5.0-pr-57749-2".;

@jakebailey Here are the results of running the user test suite comparing main and refs/pull/57749/merge:

There were infrastructure failures potentially unrelated to your change:

1 instance of "Package install failed"
1 instance of "Unknown failure"

Otherwise...

Something interesting changed - please have a look.

Should we also test @import.meta.decorator, since we have tests for super and this?

All of the user / top tests seem to be okay with this, which is good news.

Should we also test @import.meta.decorator, since we have tests for super and this?

I'm not sure why we would. Those tests specifically test which this is in scope.

However, if we feel it is too much of break, I can change the grammar check to only apply when targeting ES decorators.

That would be a lot better, speaking as a framework maintainer that's trying to help shepherd a big ecosystem of community maintained code across the migration from experimental decorators to stage3 decorators. As experimental decorators are clearly an end-of-the-road feature that's maintained only for compatibility, anything you can do to not destabilize them unnecessarily would be helpful.

StNekroman · 2025-09-24T13:48:45Z

Why this touches legacy experimental decorators , despite PR's description was about "Stage 3 Decorators" ?
Any good reason for breaking backward compatibility?
