Solidity: Implement Solidity AST printer

[axic]

This would take the internal AST structure and return a "Solidity source code output" which can be parsed by the parser.

This can also be used by the "import AST from JSON" feature (see #2096) to create the hash of the sourcecode that is part of the onchain metadata.

What about just including the hash of the source code into the AST?

[yxliang01]

May I know how this feature is going? I think this would be useful. I realize that there are some source code files look related.

[yxliang01]

I think this is implemented already. The AST printer can be used via CLI argument like --ast-json.

[chriseth]

@axic could you clarify the meaning of this issue, please?

[axic]

It says it in the description:

To print parseable Solidity source code.

[yxliang01]

@axic Did you mean being able to convert AST to Solidity source code?

[axic]

Did you mean being able to convert AST to Solidity source code?

Yes.

Any update here? I think this is very useful.

Any updates? I am trying to do this.
