-Efficient path tracking and pattern matching for XML, JSON, YAML or any other parsers.
-## 🎯 Purpose
-`path-expression-matcher` provides three core classes for tracking and matching paths:
-- **`Expression`**: Parses and stores pattern expressions (e.g., `"root.users.user[id]"`)
-- **`Matcher`**: Tracks current path during parsing and matches against expressions
-- **`MatcherView`**: A lightweight read-only view of a `Matcher`, safe to pass to callbacks
-Compatible with [fast-xml-parser](https://github.com/NaturalIntelligence/fast-xml-parser) and similar tools.
-## 📦 Installation
-```bash
-npm install path-expression-matcher
-```
-## 🚀 Quick Start
-```javascript
-import { Expression, Matcher } from 'path-expression-matcher';
-// Create expression (parse once, reuse many times)
-const expr = new Expression("root.users.user");
-// Create matcher (tracks current path)
-const matcher = new Matcher();
-matcher.push("root");
-matcher.push("users");
-matcher.push("user", { id: "123" });
-// Match current path against expression
-if (matcher.matches(expr)) {
-  console.log("Match found!");
-  console.log("Current path:", matcher.toString()); // "root.users.user"
-}
-// Namespace support
-const nsExpr = new Expression("soap::Envelope.soap::Body..ns::UserId");
-matcher.push("Envelope", null, "soap");
-matcher.push("Body", null, "soap");
-matcher.push("UserId", null, "ns");
-console.log(matcher.toString()); // "soap:Envelope.soap:Body.ns:UserId"
-```
-## 📖 Pattern Syntax
-### Basic Paths
-```javascript
-"root.users.user"           // Exact path match
-"*.users.user"              // Wildcard: any parent
-"root.*.user"               // Wildcard: any middle
-"root.users.*"              // Wildcard: any child
-```
-### Deep Wildcard
-```javascript
-"..user"                    // user anywhere in tree
-"root..user"                // user anywhere under root
-"..users..user"             // users somewhere, then user below it
-```
-### Attribute Matching
-```javascript
-"user[id]"                  // user with "id" attribute
-"user[type=admin]"          // user with type="admin" (current node only)
-```
-> **Note:** Attribute conditions in expressions only ever look at the **current** (last) node in the path — `..user` matches `user` at any depth, but bracket conditions like `[lang]` still apply to `user` itself, never to an ancestor tag. To check an *ancestor's* attribute (e.g. "is there a `lang` attribute somewhere above this node?"), use `push(..., { keep: [...] })` with `getAnyParentAttr()` / `hasAnyParentAttr()` — see [Ancestor Attributes (`keep`)](#ancestor-attributes-keep) below.
-### Position Selectors
-```javascript
-"user:first"                // First user (counter=0)
-"user:nth(2)"               // Third user (counter=2, zero-based)
-"user:odd"                  // Odd-numbered users (counter=1,3,5...)
-"user:even"                 // Even-numbered users (counter=0,2,4...)
-"root.users.user:first"     // First user under users
-```
-**Note:** Position selectors use the **counter** (occurrence count of the tag name), not the position (child index). For example, in `<root><a/><b/><a/></root>`, the second `<a/>` has position=2 but counter=1.
-### Namespaces
-```javascript
-"ns::user"                  // user with namespace "ns"
-"soap::Envelope"            // Envelope with namespace "soap"
-"ns::user[id]"              // user with namespace "ns" and "id" attribute
-"ns::user:first"            // First user with namespace "ns"
-"*::user"                   // user with any namespace
-"..ns::item"                // item with namespace "ns" anywhere in tree
-"soap::Envelope.soap::Body" // Nested namespaced elements
-"ns::first"                 // Tag named "first" with namespace "ns" (NO ambiguity!)
-```
-**Namespace syntax:**
-- Use **double colon (::)** for namespace: `ns::tag`
-- Use **single colon (:)** for position: `tag:first`
-- Combined: `ns::tag:first` (namespace + tag + position)
-**Namespace matching rules:**
-- Pattern `ns::user` matches only nodes with namespace "ns" and tag "user"
-- Pattern `user` (no namespace) matches nodes with tag "user" regardless of namespace
-- Pattern `*::user` matches tag "user" with any namespace (wildcard namespace)
-- Namespaces are tracked separately for counter/position (e.g., `ns1::item` and `ns2::item` have independent counters)
-### Wildcard Differences
-**Single wildcard (`*`)** - Matches exactly ONE level:
-- `"*.fix1"` matches `root.fix1` (2 levels) ✅
-- `"*.fix1"` does NOT match `root.another.fix1` (3 levels) ❌
-- Path depth MUST equal pattern depth
-**Deep wildcard (`..`)** - Matches ZERO or MORE levels:
-- `"..fix1"` matches `root.fix1` ✅
-- `"..fix1"` matches `root.another.fix1` ✅
-- `"..fix1"` matches `a.b.c.d.fix1` ✅
-- Works at any depth
-### Combined Patterns
-```javascript
-"..user[id]:first"              // First user with id, anywhere
-"root..user[type=admin]"        // Admin user under root
-"ns::user[id]:first"            // First namespaced user with id
-"soap::Envelope..ns::UserId"    // UserId with namespace ns under SOAP envelope
-```
-## 🔧 API Reference
-### Expression
-#### Constructor

-new Expression(pattern, options = {}, data)
-```
-**Parameters:**
-- `pattern` (string): Pattern to parse
-- `options.separator` (string): Path separator (default: `'.'`)
-**Example:**
-```javascript
-const expr1 = new Expression("root.users.user");
-const expr2 = new Expression("root/users/user", { separator: '/' });
-const expr3 = new Expression("root/users/user", { separator: '/' }, { extra: "data"});
-console.log(expr3.data) // { extra: "data" }
-```
-#### Methods
-- `hasDeepWildcard()` → boolean
-- `hasAttributeCondition()` → boolean
-- `hasPositionSelector()` → boolean
-- `toString()` → string
-### Matcher
-#### Constructor
-```javascript
-new Matcher(options)
-```
-**Parameters:**
-- `options.separator` (string): Default path separator (default: `'.'`)
-#### Path Tracking Methods
-##### `push(tagName, attrValues, namespace, options)`
-Add a tag to the current path. Position and counter are automatically calculated.
-**Parameters:**
-- `tagName` (string): Tag name
-- `attrValues` (object, optional): Attribute key-value pairs (current node only)
-- `namespace` (string, optional): Namespace for the tag
-- `options` (object, optional):
-  - `keep` (string[], optional): Names of attributes (from `attrValues`) to retain for ancestor lookup via `getAnyParentAttr()` / `hasAnyParentAttr()`, even after this node is no longer the current node. See [Ancestor Attributes (`keep`)](#ancestor-attributes-keep).
-**Example:**
-```javascript
-matcher.push("user", { id: "123", type: "admin" });
-matcher.push("item");  // No attributes
-matcher.push("Envelope", null, "soap");  // With namespace
-matcher.push("Body", { version: "1.1" }, "soap");  // With both
-matcher.push("Body", { version: "1.1" }, "soap", { keep: ["version"] });  // Retain "version" for descendants
-```
-**Position vs Counter:**
-- **Position**: The child index in the parent (0, 1, 2, 3...)
-- **Counter**: How many times this tag name appeared at this level (0, 1, 2...)
-Example:
-```xml
-<root>
-  <a/>      <!-- position=0, counter=0 -->
-  <b/>      <!-- position=1, counter=0 -->
-  <a/>      <!-- position=2, counter=1 -->
-</root>
-```
-##### `pop()`
-Remove the last tag from the path.
-```javascript
-matcher.pop();
-```
-##### `updateCurrent(attrValues)`
-Update current node's attributes (useful when attributes are parsed after push).
-```javascript
-matcher.push("user");  // Don't know values yet
-// ... parse attributes ...
-matcher.updateCurrent({ id: "123" });
-```
-##### `reset()`
-Clear the entire path.
-```javascript
-matcher.reset();
-```
-#### Query Methods
-##### `matches(expression)`
-Check if current path matches an Expression.
-```javascript
-const expr = new Expression("root.users.user");
-if (matcher.matches(expr)) {
-  // Current path matches
-}
-```
-#### `matchesAny(exprSet)` → `boolean`
-Please check `ExpressionSet` class for more details.
-```javascript
-const matcher = new Matcher();
-const exprSet = new ExpressionSet();
-exprSet.add(new Expression("root.users.user"));
-exprSet.add(new Expression("root.config.*"));
-exprSet.seal();
-if (matcher.matchesAny(exprSet)) {
-  // Current path matches any expression in the set
-}
-```
-##### `getCurrentTag()`
-Get current tag name.
-```javascript
-const tag = matcher.getCurrentTag(); // "user"
-```
-##### `getCurrentNamespace()`
-Get current namespace.
-```javascript
-const ns = matcher.getCurrentNamespace(); // "soap" or undefined
-```
-##### `getAttrValue(attrName)`
-Get attribute value of current node.
-```javascript
-const id = matcher.getAttrValue("id"); // "123"
-```
-##### `hasAttr(attrName)`
-Check if current node has an attribute.
-```javascript
-if (matcher.hasAttr("id")) {
-  // Current node has "id" attribute
-}
-```
-##### `getAnyParentAttr(attrName)`
-Get the value of an attribute that was explicitly **kept** (via `push(..., { keep: [...] })`) by the current node or any ancestor. Unlike `getAttrValue()`, this works regardless of how far the path has descended since the attribute was pushed — but only for names that were marked with `keep` at push time. If the same name was kept at multiple depths, the **nearest** (most recent) one wins.
-```javascript
-matcher.push("Body", { version: "1.1" }, "soap", { keep: ["version"] });
-matcher.push("GetUserRequest");
-matcher.push("UserId");
-matcher.getAttrValue("version");     // undefined — Body is no longer current
-matcher.getAnyParentAttr("version"); // "1.1" — still reachable, because it was kept
-```
-##### `hasAnyParentAttr(attrName)`
-Check whether the current node or any ancestor kept the given attribute via `push(..., { keep: [...] })`.
-```javascript
-if (matcher.hasAnyParentAttr("version")) {
-  // Some node on the path (current or ancestor) kept "version"
-}
-```
-##### `getPosition()`
-Get sibling position of current node (child index in parent).
-```javascript
-const position = matcher.getPosition(); // 0, 1, 2, ...
-```
-##### `getCounter()`
-Get repeat counter of current node (occurrence count of this tag name).
-```javascript
-const counter = matcher.getCounter(); // 0, 1, 2, ...
-```
-##### `getIndex()` (deprecated)
-Alias for `getPosition()`. Use `getPosition()` or `getCounter()` instead for clarity.
-```javascript
-const index = matcher.getIndex(); // Same as getPosition()
-```
-##### `getDepth()`
-Get current path depth.
-```javascript
-const depth = matcher.getDepth(); // 3 for "root.users.user"
-```
-##### `toString(separator?, includeNamespace?)`
-Get path as string.
-**Parameters:**
-- `separator` (string, optional): Path separator (uses default if not provided)
-- `includeNamespace` (boolean, optional): Whether to include namespaces (default: true)
-```javascript
-const path = matcher.toString();           // "root.ns:user.item"
-const path2 = matcher.toString('/');       // "root/ns:user/item"
-const path3 = matcher.toString('.', false); // "root.user.item" (no namespaces)
-```
-##### `toArray()`
-Get path as array.
-```javascript
-const arr = matcher.toArray(); // ["root", "users", "user"]
-```
-#### State Management
-##### `snapshot()`
-Create a snapshot of current state.
-```javascript
-const snapshot = matcher.snapshot();
-```
-##### `restore(snapshot)`
-Restore from a snapshot.
-```javascript
-matcher.restore(snapshot);
-```
-#### Read-Only Access
-##### `readOnly()`
-Returns a **`MatcherView`** — a lightweight, live read-only view of the matcher. All query and inspection methods work normally and always reflect the current state of the underlying matcher. Mutation methods (`push`, `pop`, `reset`, `updateCurrent`, `restore`) simply don't exist on `MatcherView`, so misuse is caught at **compile time** by TypeScript rather than at runtime.
-The **same instance** is returned on every call — no allocation occurs per invocation. This is the recommended way to share the matcher with callbacks, plugins, or any external code that only needs to inspect the current path.
-```javascript
-const view = matcher.readOnly();
-// Same reference every time — safe to cache
-view === matcher.readOnly(); // true
-```
-**What works on the view:**
-```javascript
-view.matches(expr)          // ✓ pattern matching
-view.getCurrentTag()        // ✓ current tag name
-view.getCurrentNamespace()  // ✓ current namespace
-view.getAttrValue("id")     // ✓ attribute value
-view.hasAttr("id")          // ✓ attribute presence check
-view.getPosition()          // ✓ sibling position
-view.getCounter()           // ✓ occurrence counter
-view.getDepth()             // ✓ path depth
-view.toString()             // ✓ path as string
-view.toArray()              // ✓ path as array
-```
-**What doesn't exist (compile-time error in TypeScript):**
-```javascript
-view.push("child", {})      // ✗ Property 'push' does not exist on type 'MatcherView'
-view.pop()                  // ✗ Property 'pop' does not exist on type 'MatcherView'
-view.reset()                // ✗ Property 'reset' does not exist on type 'MatcherView'
-view.updateCurrent({})      // ✗ Property 'updateCurrent' does not exist on type 'MatcherView'
-view.restore(snapshot)      // ✗ Property 'restore' does not exist on type 'MatcherView'
-```
-**The view is live** — it always reflects the current state of the underlying matcher.
-```javascript
-const matcher = new Matcher();
-const view = matcher.readOnly();
-matcher.push("root");
-view.getDepth();    // 1 — immediately reflects the push
-matcher.push("users");
-view.getDepth();    // 2 — still live
-```
-## 💡 Usage Examples
-### Example 1: XML Parser with stopNodes
-```javascript
-import { XMLParser } from 'fast-xml-parser';
-import { Expression, Matcher } from 'path-expression-matcher';
-class MyParser {
-  constructor() {
-    this.matcher = new Matcher();
-    // Pre-compile stop node patterns
-    this.stopNodeExpressions = [
-      new Expression("html.body.script"),
-      new Expression("html.body.style"),
-      new Expression("..svg"),
-    ];
-  }
-  parseTag(tagName, attrs) {
-    this.matcher.push(tagName, attrs);
-    // Check if this is a stop node
-    for (const expr of this.stopNodeExpressions) {
-      if (this.matcher.matches(expr)) {
-        // Don't parse children, read as raw text
-        return this.readRawContent();
-      }
-    }
-    // Continue normal parsing
-    this.parseChildren();
-    this.matcher.pop();
-  }
-}
-```
-### Example 2: Conditional Processing
-```javascript
-const matcher = new Matcher();
-const userExpr = new Expression("..user[type=admin]");
-const firstItemExpr = new Expression("..item:first");
-function processTag(tagName, value, attrs) {
-  matcher.push(tagName, attrs);
-  if (matcher.matches(userExpr)) {
-    value = enhanceAdminUser(value);
-  }
-  if (matcher.matches(firstItemExpr)) {
-    value = markAsFirst(value);
-  }
-  matcher.pop();
-  return value;
-}
-```
-### Example 3: Path-based Filtering
-```javascript
-const patterns = [
-  new Expression("data.users.user"),
-  new Expression("data.posts.post"),
-  new Expression("..comment[approved=true]"),
-];
-function shouldInclude(matcher) {
-  return patterns.some(expr => matcher.matches(expr));
-}
-```
-### Example 4: Custom Separator
-```javascript
-const matcher = new Matcher({ separator: '/' });
-const expr = new Expression("root/config/database", { separator: '/' });
-matcher.push("root");
-matcher.push("config");
-matcher.push("database");
-console.log(matcher.toString()); // "root/config/database"
-console.log(matcher.matches(expr)); // true
-```
-### Example 5: Attribute Checking
-```javascript
-const matcher = new Matcher();
-matcher.push("root");
-matcher.push("user", { id: "123", type: "admin", status: "active" });
-// Check attribute existence (current node only)
-console.log(matcher.hasAttr("id"));        // true
-console.log(matcher.hasAttr("email"));     // false
-// Get attribute value (current node only)
-console.log(matcher.getAttrValue("type")); // "admin"
-// Match by attribute
-const expr1 = new Expression("user[id]");
-console.log(matcher.matches(expr1));       // true
-const expr2 = new Expression("user[type=admin]");
-console.log(matcher.matches(expr2));       // true
-```
-> Need to check an attribute from an *ancestor* node, not just the current one? See [Example 5b](#example-5b-ancestor-attributes-keep) and [Ancestor Attributes (`keep`)](#ancestor-attributes-keep).
-### Example 5b: Ancestor Attributes (`keep`)
-`getAttrValue()` / `hasAttr()` only ever see the **current** node — by design, ancestor attribute values are discarded as soon as you push past them, to keep memory usage low. If you know in advance that a specific attribute (e.g. a SOAP envelope's `version`, or `xml:space`) will matter much deeper in the tree, mark it to be **kept**:
-```javascript
-const matcher = new Matcher();
-matcher.push("Envelope", null, "soap");
-matcher.push("Body", { version: "1.1" }, "soap", { keep: ["version"] });
-matcher.push("GetUserRequest", { id: "42" });
-matcher.push("UserId");
-// Ordinary attribute access only sees the current node:
-console.log(matcher.getAttrValue("version"));     // undefined
-// getAnyParentAttr/hasAnyParentAttr still see it, however deep we've gone:
-console.log(matcher.hasAnyParentAttr("version")); // true
-console.log(matcher.getAnyParentAttr("version")); // "1.1"
-matcher.pop(); matcher.pop(); matcher.pop(); // back to Envelope
-console.log(matcher.hasAnyParentAttr("version")); // false — Body (and its kept attrs) was popped
-```
-**When to use this:** only for the small number of attributes you specifically know you'll need many levels deeper — not as a general substitute for `getAttrValue()`. Each name passed to `keep` adds a tiny, constant amount of bookkeeping at `push()` time; lookups scan only the kept-attributes list (typically 0-3 entries), never the full path, so cost does not grow with document depth.
-### Example 6: Position vs Counter
-```javascript
-const matcher = new Matcher();
-matcher.push("root");
-// Mixed tags at same level
-matcher.push("item");  // position=0, counter=0 (first item)
-matcher.pop();
-matcher.push("div");   // position=1, counter=0 (first div)
-matcher.pop();
-matcher.push("item");  // position=2, counter=1 (second item)
-console.log(matcher.getPosition()); // 2 (third child overall)
-console.log(matcher.getCounter());  // 1 (second "item" specifically)
-// :first uses counter, not position
-const expr = new Expression("root.item:first");
-console.log(matcher.matches(expr)); // false (counter=1, not 0)
-```
-### Example 8: Passing a Read-Only View to External Consumers
-When passing the matcher into callbacks, plugins, or other code you don't control, use `readOnly()` to get a `MatcherView` — it can inspect but never mutate parser state.
-```javascript
-import { Expression, Matcher } from 'path-expression-matcher';
-const matcher = new Matcher();
-const adminExpr = new Expression("..user[type=admin]");
-function parseTag(tagName, attrs, onTag) {
-  matcher.push(tagName, attrs);
-  // Pass MatcherView — consumer can inspect but not mutate
-  onTag(matcher.readOnly());
-  matcher.pop();
-}
-// Safe consumer — can only read
-function myPlugin(view) {
-  if (view.matches(adminExpr)) {
-    console.log("Admin at path:", view.toString());
-    console.log("Depth:", view.getDepth());
-    console.log("ID:", view.getAttrValue("id"));
-  }
-}
-// view.push(...) or view.reset() don't exist on MatcherView —
-// TypeScript catches misuse at compile time.
-parseTag("user", { id: "1", type: "admin" }, myPlugin);
-```
-```javascript
-const matcher = new Matcher();
-const soapExpr = new Expression("soap::Envelope.soap::Body..ns::UserId");
-// Parse SOAP document
-matcher.push("Envelope", { xmlns: "..." }, "soap");
-matcher.push("Body", null, "soap");
-matcher.push("GetUserRequest", null, "ns");
-matcher.push("UserId", null, "ns");
-// Match namespaced pattern
-if (matcher.matches(soapExpr)) {
-  console.log("Found UserId in SOAP body");
-  console.log(matcher.toString()); // "soap:Envelope.soap:Body.ns:GetUserRequest.ns:UserId"
-}
-// Namespace-specific counters
-matcher.reset();
-matcher.push("root");
-matcher.push("item", null, "ns1");  // ns1::item counter=0
-matcher.pop();
-matcher.push("item", null, "ns2");  // ns2::item counter=0 (different namespace)
-matcher.pop();
-matcher.push("item", null, "ns1");  // ns1::item counter=1
-const firstNs1Item = new Expression("root.ns1::item:first");
-console.log(matcher.matches(firstNs1Item)); // false (counter=1)
-const secondNs1Item = new Expression("root.ns1::item:nth(1)");
-console.log(matcher.matches(secondNs1Item)); // true
-// NO AMBIGUITY: Tags named after position keywords
-matcher.reset();
-matcher.push("root");
-matcher.push("first", null, "ns");  // Tag named "first" with namespace
-const expr = new Expression("root.ns::first");
-console.log(matcher.matches(expr)); // true - matches namespace "ns", tag "first"
-```
-## 🏗️ Architecture
-### Data Storage Strategy
-**Ancestor nodes:** Store only tag name, position, and counter (minimal memory)
-**Current node:** Store tag name, position, counter, and attribute values
-This design minimizes memory usage:
-- No attribute names stored (derived from values object when needed)
-- Attribute values only for current node, not ancestors, **by default**
-- For 1M nodes with 3 attributes each, saves ~50MB vs storing attribute names
-### Ancestor Attributes (`keep`)
-The trade-off above is the right default, but XML/SOAP documents occasionally have a handful of attributes — `xml:space`, a SOAP envelope's `version`, a feature-flag at the document root — that genuinely need to be visible many levels deeper. Rather than retaining *all* attribute values for *every* node (defeating the memory savings above), `push()` accepts an explicit opt-in:
-```javascript
-matcher.push("Body", { version: "1.1" }, "soap", { keep: ["version"] });
-```
-Only the named attribute(s) are copied into a small side-stack (`_keptAttrs`), independent of the normal per-node `values`. Reachable later via `getAnyParentAttr(name)` / `hasAnyParentAttr(name)` regardless of depth — see [Example 5b](#example-5b-ancestor-attributes-keep).
-**Why this stays cheap:**
-- Pushing without `options` costs two extra property reads — no allocation, no measurable overhead (benchmarked: within run-to-run noise vs. plain `push()`).
-- Lookups scan only the kept-attributes stack, not the full path — cost is proportional to *how many distinct attributes are currently kept* (typically 0-3 in real usage), not to document depth.
-- `pop()` truncates kept entries belonging to the popped subtree in the same backward-scan style, so the stack never grows unbounded.
-- The core `matches()` / `_matchSegment` pattern-matching path is completely unaffected — `keep` is a separate, opt-in mechanism with no new expression syntax.
-This is intentionally a narrow escape hatch, not a general "remember everything" toggle — overusing `keep` (e.g. keeping every attribute on every node) reintroduces the same memory cost this library avoids by default.
-### Matching Strategy
-Matching is performed **bottom-to-top** (from current node toward root):
-1. Start at current node
-2. Match segments from pattern end to start
-3. Attribute *expression* conditions (`[attr=value]`) only apply to the current node — ancestors have no attribute data in the path itself. For genuinely ancestor-scoped checks outside of expression matching, use `keep` (above).
-4. Position selectors use **counter** (occurrence count), not position (child index)
-### Performance
-- **Expression parsing:** One-time cost when Expression is created
-- **Expression analysis:** Cached (hasDeepWildcard, hasAttributeCondition, hasPositionSelector)
-- **Path tracking:** O(1) for push/pop operations (O(k) additionally when `options.keep` is used, where k = number of kept attribute names — typically 0-3)
-- **Pattern matching:** O(n*m) where n = path depth, m = pattern segments
-- **Ancestor attribute lookup:** O(k) where k = number of currently-kept attributes, independent of path depth
-- **Memory per ancestor node:** ~40-60 bytes (tag, position, counter only)
-- **Memory per current node:** ~80-120 bytes (adds attribute values)
-## 🎓 Design Patterns
-### Pre-compile Patterns (Recommended)
-```javascript
-// ✅ GOOD: Parse once, reuse many times
-const expr = new Expression("..user[id]");
-for (let i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
-  if (matcher.matches(expr)) {
-    // ...
-  }
-}
-```
-```javascript
-// ❌ BAD: Parse on every iteration
-for (let i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
-  if (matcher.matches(new Expression("..user[id]"))) {
-    // ...
-  }
-}
-```
-### Batch Pattern Checking with ExpressionSet (Recommended)
-For checking multiple patterns on every tag, use `ExpressionSet` instead of a manual loop.
-It pre-indexes expressions at build time so each call to `matchesAny()` does an O(1) bucket
-lookup rather than a full O(N) scan:
-```javascript
-import { Expression, ExpressionSet, Matcher } from 'path-expression-matcher';
-// Build once at config/startup time
-const stopNodes = new ExpressionSet();
-stopNodes
-  .add(new Expression('root.users.user'))
-  .add(new Expression('root.config.*'))
-  .add(new Expression('..script'))
-  .seal(); // prevent accidental mutation during parsing
-// Per-tag — hot path
-if (stopNodes.matchesAny(matcher)) {
-  // handle stop node
-}
-```
-This replaces the manual loop pattern:
-```javascript
-// ❌ Before — O(N) per tag
-function isStopNode(expressions, matcher) {
-  for (let i = 0; i < expressions.length; i++) {
-    if (matcher.matches(expressions[i])) return true;
-  }
-  return false;
-}
-// ✅ After — O(1) lookup per tag
-const stopNodes = new ExpressionSet();
-stopNodes.addAll(expressions);
-stopNodes.matchesAny(matcher);
-//or matcher.matchesAny(stopNodes)
-```

-## 📦 ExpressionSet API
-`ExpressionSet` is an indexed collection of `Expression` objects designed for efficient
-bulk matching. Build it once from your config, then call `matchesAny()` on every tag.
-### Constructor
-```javascript
-const set = new ExpressionSet();
-```
-### `add(expression)` → `this`
-Add a single `Expression`. Duplicate patterns (same pattern string) are silently ignored.
-Returns `this` for chaining. Throws `TypeError` if the set is sealed.
-```javascript
-set.add(new Expression('root.users.user'));
-set.add(new Expression('..script'));
-```
-### `addAll(expressions)` → `this`
-Add an array of `Expression` objects at once. Returns `this` for chaining.
-```javascript
-set.addAll(config.stopNodes.map(p => new Expression(p)));
-```
-### `has(expression)` → `boolean`
-Check whether an expression with the same pattern is already present.
-```javascript
-set.has(new Expression('root.users.user')); // true / false
-```
-### `seal()` → `this`
-Prevent further additions. Any subsequent call to `add()` or `addAll()` throws a `TypeError`.
-Useful to guard against accidental mutation once parsing has started.
-```javascript
-const stopNodes = new ExpressionSet();
-stopNodes.addAll(patterns).seal();
-stopNodes.add(new Expression('root.extra')); // ❌ TypeError: ExpressionSet is sealed
-```
-### `size` → `number`
-Number of distinct expressions in the set.
-```javascript
-set.size; // 3
-```
-### `isSealed` → `boolean`
-Whether `seal()` has been called.
-### `matchesAny(matcher)` → `boolean`
-Returns `true` if the matcher's current path matches **any** expression in the set.
-Accepts both a `Matcher` instance and a `MatcherView`.
-```javascript
-if (stopNodes.matchesAny(matcher)) { /* ... */ }
-if (stopNodes.matchesAny(matcher.readOnly())) { /* ... */ } // also works
-```
-**How indexing works:** expressions are bucketed at `add()` time, not at match time.
-| Expression type | Bucket | Lookup cost |
-|---|---|---|
-| Fixed path, concrete tag (`root.users.user`) | `depth:tag` map | O(1) |
-| Fixed path, wildcard tag (`root.config.*`) | `depth` map | O(1) |
-| Deep wildcard (`..script`) | flat list | O(D) — always scanned |
-In practice, deep-wildcard expressions are rare in configs, so the list stays small.
-### `findMatch(matcher)` → `Expression`
-Returns the Expression instance that matched the current path. Accepts both a `Matcher` instance and a `MatcherView`.
-```javascript
-const node = stopNodes.findMatch(matcher);
-```
-### Example 7: ExpressionSet in a real parser loop
-```javascript
-import { XMLParser } from 'fast-xml-parser';
-import { Expression, ExpressionSet, Matcher } from 'path-expression-matcher';
-// Config-time setup
-const stopNodes = new ExpressionSet();
-stopNodes
-  .addAll(['script', 'style'].map(t => new Expression(`..${t}`)))
-  .seal();
-const matcher = new Matcher();
-const parser = new XMLParser({
-  onOpenTag(tagName, attrs) {
-    matcher.push(tagName, attrs);
-    if (stopNodes.matchesAny(matcher)) {
-      // treat as stop node
-    }
-  },
-  onCloseTag() {
-    matcher.pop();
-  },
-});
-```
-## 🔗 Integration with fast-xml-parser
-**Basic integration:**
-```javascript
-import { XMLParser } from 'fast-xml-parser';
-import { Expression, Matcher } from 'path-expression-matcher';
-const parser = new XMLParser({
-  // Custom options using path-expression-matcher
-  stopNodes: ["script", "style"].map(tag => new Expression(`..${tag}`)),
-  tagValueProcessor: (tagName, value, jPath, hasAttrs, isLeaf, matcher) => {
-    // matcher is available in callbacks
-    if (matcher.matches(new Expression("..user[type=admin]"))) {
-      return enhanceValue(value);
-    }
-    return value;
-  }
-});
-```
