将JavaScript存储在数据库中以备后用

Question

I need to store JavaScript code somewhere on server.

It will be often extracted and presented to users through web interface in two forms:

• code itself (as text)
• visual representation of that code

The question is how it would be better to store code?

Database? If so, then I have at least two options:

• storing code as a plain text
• storing pre-generated syntax tree of that code

What's actually easier (~faster): parsing code to syntax tree or generating code from syntax tree?

Maybe some other solutions? JSON?

What are the best practices?

Answer 1

Ok lets say this is your javascript code

<script type="text/javascript">
alert('example');
</script>

you can save it in the following format in database so whenever you will extract it back it will get parsed easily, with code type equals text and collation=utf8_general_ci

<script type=\"text/javascript\">
alert(\'example\');
</script>

tell me if you have any queries....
