## What is this?
This package is a tiny utility that lets you find definitions.
## When should I use this?
This utility can be useful because definitions can occur after the things that
reference them.
Its small and protects against prototype pollution.
## Install
This package is [ESM only][esm].
In Node.js (version 14.14+ and 16.0+), install with [npm][]:
```sh
npm install mdast-util-definitions
```
In Deno with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:
```js
import {definitions} from 'https://esm.sh/mdast-util-definitions@5'
```
In browsers with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:
```html
<script type="module">
import {definitions} from 'https://esm.sh/mdast-util-definitions@5?bundle'
</script>
```
## Use
```js
import {fromMarkdown} from 'mdast-util-from-markdown'
import {definitions} from 'mdast-util-definitions'
const tree = fromMarkdown('[example]: https://example.com "Example"')
const definition = definitions(tree)
definition('example')
// => {type: 'definition', 'title': 'Example', …}
definition('foo')
// => null
```
## API
This package exports the identifier [`definitions`][api-definitions].
There is no default export.
### `definitions(tree)`
Find definitions in `tree`.
Uses CommonMark precedence, which means that earlier definitions are
preferred over duplicate later definitions.
###### Parameters
* `tree` ([`Node`][node])
— tree to check
###### Returns
Getter ([`GetDefinition`][api-getdefinition]).
### `GetDefinition`
Get a definition by identifier (TypeScript type).
###### Parameters
* `identifier` (`string`, optional)
— identifier of definition
###### Returns
Definition corresponding to `identifier` ([`Definition`][definition]) or
`null`.
## Types
This package is fully typed with [TypeScript][].
It exports the additional type [`GetDefinition`][api-getdefinition].
## Compatibility
Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with all maintained
versions of Node.js.
As of now, that is Node.js 14.14+ and 16.0+.
Our projects sometimes work with older versions, but this is not guaranteed.
## Security
Use of `mdast-util-definitions` does not involve **[hast][]** or user content so
there are no openings for [cross-site scripting (XSS)][xss] attacks.
Additionally, safe guards are in place to protect against prototype poisoning.
