unist-util-find-before

unist utility to find a node before another node.

Install

This package is ESM only: Node 12+ is needed to use it and it must be imported instead of required.

npm:

npm install unist-util-find-before

Use

import {u} from 'unist-builder'
import {findBefore} from 'unist-util-find-before'

var tree = u('tree', [
  u('leaf', 'leaf 1'),
  u('node', [u('leaf', 'leaf 2'), u('leaf', 'leaf 3')]),
  u('leaf', 'leaf 4'),
  u('node', [u('leaf', 'leaf 5')]),
  u('leaf', 'leaf 6'),
  u('void'),
  u('leaf', 'leaf 7')
])

var empty = tree.children[5]

console.log(findBefore(tree, empty, 'node'))

Yields:

{type: 'node', children: [{type: 'leaf', value: 'leaf 5'}]}
