How to print source code of "IF" condition in "THEN"

I would like to print Scala source code of IF condition while being in THEN section.

Example: IF{ 2 + 2 < 5 } THEN { println("I am in THEN because: " + sourceCodeOfCondition) }

Let's skip THEN section right now, the question is: how to get source code of block after IF?

I assume that IF should be a macro...

Note: this question is redefined version of Macro to access source code of function at runtime where I described that { val i = 5; List(1, 2, 3); true }.logValueImpl works for me (according to other question Macro to access source code text at runtime).

As of 2.13, you can also do this by wrapping the expression, which means you don't have to define a custom if function:

implicit def debugIf[A]: DebugIf => Unit = { cond: DebugIf =>
  logger.info(s"condition = {}, result = ${cond.result}", cond.code)
}

decorateIfs {
  if (System.currentTimeMillis() % 2 == 0) {
    println("decorateIfs: if block")
  } else {
    println("decorateIfs: else block")
  }
}

with the macro implementation:

  def decorateIfs[A: c.WeakTypeTag](a: c.Expr[A])(output: c.Expr[DebugIf => Unit]): c.Expr[A] = {
    def isEmpty(tree: Trees#Tree): Boolean = {
      tree match {
        case Literal(Constant(())) =>
          true
        case other =>
          false
      }
    }

    c.Expr[A] {
      a.tree match {
        // https://docs.scala-lang.org/overviews/quasiquotes/expression-details.html#if
        case q"if ($cond) $thenp else $elsep" =>
          val condSource = extractRange(cond) getOrElse ""
          val printThen = q"$output(DebugIf($condSource, true))"
          val elseThen = q"$output(DebugIf($condSource, false))"

          val thenTree = q"""{ $printThen; $thenp }"""
          val elseTree = if (isEmpty(elsep)) elsep else q"""{ $elseThen; $elsep }"""
          q"if ($cond) $thenTree else $elseTree"
        case other =>
          other
      }
    }
  }

  private def extractRange(t: Trees#Tree): Option[String] = {
    val pos = t.pos
    val source = pos.source.content
    if (pos.isRange) Option(new String(source.drop(pos.start).take(pos.end - pos.start))) else None
  }

  case class DebugIf(code: String, result: Boolean)

Off-the-cuff implementation since I only have a minute:

import scala.reflect.macros.Context
import scala.language.experimental.macros

case class Conditional(conditionCode: String, value: Boolean) {
  def THEN(doIt: Unit) = macro Conditional.THEN_impl
}

object Conditional {
  def sourceCodeOfCondition: String = ???

  def IF(condition: Boolean) = macro IF_impl

  def IF_impl(c: Context)(condition: c.Expr[Boolean]): c.Expr[Conditional] = {
    import c.universe._

    c.Expr(q"Conditional(${ show(condition.tree) }, $condition)")
  }

  def THEN_impl(c: Context)(doIt: c.Expr[Unit]): c.Expr[Unit] = {
    import c.universe._

    val rewriter = new Transformer {
      override def transform(tree: Tree) = tree match {
        case Select(_, TermName("sourceCodeOfCondition")) =>
          c.typeCheck(q"${ c.prefix.tree }.conditionCode")
        case other => super.transform(other)
      }
    }

    c.Expr(q"if (${ c.prefix.tree }.value) ${ rewriter.transform(doIt.tree) }")
  }
}

And then:

object Demo {
  import Conditional._

  val x = 1

  def demo = IF { x + 5 < 10 } THEN { println(sourceCodeOfCondition) }
}

And finally:

scala> Demo.demo
Demo.this.x.+(5).<(10)

It's a desugared representation of the source, but off the top of my head I think that's the best you're going to get.

See my blog post here for some discussion of the technique.
