Summary

Replaces the partial byte-level ESM detector for ambiguous JavaScript with SWC program parsing, so template interpolation contents cannot desynchronize a trailing module item.

Changes

  • Use SWC lexer/parser-backed Script-versus-Module detection for ambiguous .js, .jsx, and .cjs inputs while preserving explicit ESM package behavior.
  • Cover the exact repro plus nested expressions and templates, escaped backticks, regex character classes containing backticks and ${, comments and strings in interpolations, and division versus regex.
  • Keep genuine CommonJS inputs on the sloppy Script path.
  • Add the required PR-keyed changelog fragment without changing any version metadata.

Test plan

Run on root@perrymaster.skelpo.net:

  • cargo fmt --all -- --check
  • ./scripts/pre-tag-check.sh --quick
  • cargo test -p perry-parser (41 passed)
  • cargo clippy -p perry-parser --all-targets (completed; pre-existing warnings only)
  • Built the dev CLI and compiled the exact issue repro with perry compile --no-auto-optimize --no-link; produced a valid ELF relocatable object.
  • cargo test --bins -p perry -- --skip commands::compile::build_cache::tests::codegen_env_vars_are_build_cache_inputs (1,065 passed; the excluded test already fails on main because PERRY_CONCAT_SITE_CACHE is absent from its inventory)
  • cargo build --release clean
  • Full affected-crate/workspace suite passes
  • Added a regression #[test] in the affected crate
  • Documentation update (not applicable: no user-facing API change)
  • Platform UI build (not applicable)

Checklist

  • I have NOT bumped the workspace version or edited CLAUDE.md / CHANGELOG.md
  • My commit follows the loose fix: prefix convention
  • I have read CONTRIBUTING.md and agree to the Code of Conduct

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved detection of ES module exports in ambiguous .js files, including files containing nested templates, escaped characters, regular expressions, comments, strings, or division.
    • Prevented valid trailing exports from being overlooked in complex JavaScript source.
    • Preserved Script behavior for genuine CommonJS files.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The parser replaces source scanning with SWC program parsing for ambiguous .js, .cjs, and .jsx files. Tests cover templates, regex literals, comments, top-level exports, and CommonJS inputs.

Changes

Parser classification

Layer / File(s) Summary
Program parsing classification
crates/perry-parser/src/lib.rs
parse_module_or_script now parses eligible files with SWC parse_program and converts the result to a Module. Callers, imports, and documentation use the updated API.
Classification test coverage
crates/perry-parser/src/lib.rs, changelog.d/9630-template-esm-detection.md
Tests validate module detection across templates, regex literals, and comments, while CommonJS inputs remain statements. The changelog records the change.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 3abd8

Ambiguous JavaScript files with uppercase extensions can be parsed differently from equivalent lowercase filenames, potentially rejecting valid CommonJS input. Normalize extensions and add an uppercase regression case before merge.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Normalize the extension before this classification check.

syntax_for_filename uses a lowercase path, but this function uses the original-case path. Therefore, chunk.JS and chunk.JSX outside an ESM package skip parse_program and use parse_module. A sloppy CommonJS source such as with ({}) {} then fails for an uppercase filename although the lowercase filename remains a Script.

Lowercase a separate extension-check value and preserve path for file_is_in_esm_package_context. Add an uppercase .JS regression case.

Proposed fix
 fn should_parse_unambiguous_program(filename: &str) -> bool {
     let path = path_for_extension_check(filename);
-    if !(path.ends_with(".js") || path.ends_with(".cjs") || path.ends_with(".jsx")) {
+    let extension_path = path.to_ascii_lowercase();
+    if !(extension_path.ends_with(".js")
+        || extension_path.ends_with(".cjs")
+        || extension_path.ends_with(".jsx"))
+    {
         return false;
     }
-    path.ends_with(".cjs") || !file_is_in_esm_package_context(path)
+    extension_path.ends_with(".cjs") || !file_is_in_esm_package_context(path)
