Remove TypeDeclarationStatement without altering lines position

[uniquadev]

Hello, I'm trying to remove TypeDeclarationStatement with the LuaSyntaxRewriter class without altering lines..

This is how I remove TypeDeclarationStatements

public override SyntaxNode VisitTypeDeclarationStatement(TypeDeclarationStatementSyntax node)
{
    return null;
}

es:

function a()
    print('epic')
end


type Point = { x: number, y: number }


function foo(x: number, y: string): boolean
    local k: string = y:rep(x)
    return k == "a"
end

out:

function a()
    print('epic')
end
function foo(x: number, y: string): boolean
    local k: string = y:rep(x)
    return k == "a"
end

Have a good day!

The lines are being "altered" because the spacing in the type declaration statement was in the LeadingTrivia of the type keyword, along with probably having .NormalizeWhitespace() being called which removes extra line breaks when it finds them.

If you could share the rest of the process we could confirm whether or not that's the case @uniquadev

internal class LuauRewriter : LuaSyntaxRewriter
    {
        public static SyntaxNode Rewrite(SyntaxNode node)
        {
            var rewriter = new LuauRewriter();
            return rewriter.Visit(node);
        }

        // TODO make a way to don't alter lines position
        // an idea could be visit statements list and remove types declaration modifing near statements trivia
        public override SyntaxNode VisitTypeDeclarationStatement(TypeDeclarationStatementSyntax node)
        {
            return null;
        }
    }

Well, this only seems like it would only remove the line breaks up to the type declaration and the one immediately after it:

The other line breaks should've remained if .NormalizeWhitespace() is not being called.

So the final code should've been

function a()
    print('epic')
end


function foo(x: number, y: string): boolean
    local k: string = y:rep(x)
    return k == "a"
end

if only this visitor was being ran

sorry I forgot to mention that I had another visitor. I isoleted the LuauRewriter class and I got the expected result :DD
However line position is still different (even if better than the old case)

Yeah, the way to solve this would be to take the leading trivia of the type keyword and add it to the function in function foo
