    ifStatement

    ▸ ifStatement(node): Promise<TranslatedCodeLine[]>

    Translates a IfStatement into the JavaScript language.

    Implementation notes:

    • This algorithm is indirectly recursive, as else-if statements are handling like else statements with an immediate if statement in them.
    • The formatting algorithm tries to start at the top and slowly go down each area of the abstract syntax tree. First the starting 'if' will be formatted, and afterwards the alternative branches are processed if they exists. If they do, it is also formatted like with a regular starting 'if', unless there is another nested if-statement in which case it will pass that job down to the child if-statement.

    0.10.0

    node IfStatement
