# semantic-parse

This package provides a command line tool that will output ASTs in supported formats.

#### CLI

To output ASTs, run the `semantic-parse` command, specifying two mandatory options: 1) the format you'd like to return (ex., `Show`, `JSON`, etc.) and 2) the option specifying whether the source code will be passed in directly via command line (using `--sourceString`) or via providing the file path `--sourceFile`.

Filepath:
```
semantic-parse --format [FORMAT] --sourceFile [FILEPATH]
```

Source string:
```
semantic-parse --format [FORMAT] --sourceString [SOURCE]
```

An example command is:

```
semantic-parse -- --format Show --sourceString "a"
```

This will generate an AST
