Properties

---

extended

Returns a SymbolGroup of all extended nodes associated with this element.

Creates a SymbolGroup that provides a common interface for editing all extended nodes, such as decorators, modifiers, and comments associated with the element.

Args: None

Returns: SymbolGroup: A group containing this node and its extended nodes that allows batch modification through a common interface.

def extended(self) -> SymbolGroup:
    ...

extended_source

Returns the source text representation of all extended nodes.

Gets the source text of all extended nodes combined. This property allows reading the source text of all extended nodes (e.g. decorators, export statements) associated with this node.

Returns: str: The combined source text of all extended nodes.

def extended_source(self) -> str:
    ...

file

The file object that this Editable instance belongs to.

Retrieves or caches the file object associated with this Editable instance.

Returns: File: The File object containing this Editable instance.

def file(self) -> SourceFile:
    ...

filepath

The file path of the file that this Editable instance belongs to.

Returns a string representing the absolute file path of the File that contains this Editable instance.

Returns: str: The absolute file path.

def filepath(self) -> str:
    ...

function_calls

Returns a list of all function calls contained within this expression.

Traverses the extended nodes of this expression to find all function calls within it. This is useful for tasks like analyzing call patterns or renaming function invocations.

def function_calls(self) -> list[FunctionCall]:
    ...

resolved_value

Returns the resolved value of an Expression.

Returns the last assigned expression value if the expression is resolvable, otherwise returns itself. For example, if ‘b = a’ where ‘a = 1’, resolving ‘b’ returns 1.

Returns: Union[Expression, list[Expression]]: The resolved expression value(s). Returns a single Expression if there is only one resolved value, or a list of Expressions if there are multiple resolved values. Returns self if the expression is not resolvable or has no resolved types.

source

Text representation of the Editable instance.

Returns the source text of the Editable instance. This is the main property used to access the text content of any code element in GraphSitter.

Returns: str: The text content of this Editable instance.

def source(self) -> str:
    ...

variable_usages

Returns Editables for all TreeSitter node instances of variable usages within this node’s scope.

This method finds all variable identifier nodes in the TreeSitter AST, excluding:

• Keyword argument names (in Python and TypeScript)

This is useful for variable renaming and usage analysis within a scope.

Returns: list[Editable]: A list of Editable nodes representing variable usages. Each Editable corresponds to a TreeSitter node instance where the variable is referenced.

def variable_usages(self) -> list[Editable]:
    ...

Methods

---

commit

edit

Replace the source of this Editable with new_src.

Replaces the text representation of this Editable instance with new text content. The method handles indentation adjustments and transaction management.

Args: new_src (str): The new source text to replace the current text with. fix_indentation (bool): If True, adjusts the indentation of new_src to match the current text’s indentation level. Defaults to False. priority (int): The priority of the edit transaction. Higher priority edits are applied first. Defaults to 0. dedupe (bool): If True, deduplicates identical transactions. Defaults to True.

Args: strings_to_match (Union[list[str], str]): One or more strings to search for. exact (bool): If True, only return nodes whose source exactly matches one of the strings_to_match. If False, return nodes that contain any of the strings_to_match as substrings. Defaults to False.

Returns: list[Editable]: A list of Editable instances that match the search criteria.

def find(self, strings_to_match: list[str] | str, *, exact: bool = False) -> list[Editable]:

find_string_literals

Returns a list of string literals within this node’s source that match any of the given strings.

Args: strings_to_match (list[str]): A list of strings to search for in string literals. fuzzy_match (bool): If True, matches substrings within string literals. If False, only matches exact strings. Defaults to False.

Returns: list[Editable]: A list of Editable objects representing the matching string literals.

def find_string_literals(self, strings_to_match: list[str], fuzzy_match: bool = False) -> list[Editable]:
    ...

flag

Adds a visual flag comment to the end of this Editable’s source text.

Flags this Editable by appending a comment with emoji flags at the end of its source text. This is useful for visually highlighting specific nodes in the source code during development and debugging.

Returns: None

def flag(self, **kwargs: Unpack[FlagKwargs]) -> CodeFlag[Self]:
    ...

get_variable_usages

Returns Editables for all TreeSitter nodes corresponding to instances of variable usage that matches the given variable name.

Retrieves a list of variable usages that match a specified name, with an option for fuzzy matching. By default, excludes property identifiers and argument keywords.

Args: var_name (str): The variable name to search for. fuzzy_match (bool): If True, matches variables where var_name is a substring. If False, requires exact match. Defaults to False.

remove

Deletes this Node and its related extended nodes (e.g. decorators, comments).

replace

Search and replace occurrences of text within this node’s source and its extended nodes.
