SystemJS Babel Plugin
Provides Babel transpilation in the browser and in builds when using SystemJS 0.19.12+ and SystemJS Builder 0.15+.
Compatible with the automatic Rollup optimizations in SystemJS Builder.
Usage
SystemJS
The plugin can be used in SystemJS with the following configuration:
SystemJS.config({
map: {
'plugin-babel': 'path/to/systemjs-plugin-babel/plugin-babel.js',
'systemjs-babel-build': 'path/to/systemjs-plugin-babel/systemjs-babel-browser.js'
},
transpiler: 'plugin-babel'
});
The plugin can also be configured as a loader
through metadata in SystemJS.
jspm
This plugin is compatible with jspm 0.17 beta, but is not supported in jspm 0.16.
jspm install plugin-babel
Then set transpiler: 'plugin-babel'
in the jspm.js
config file.
Alternatively use jspm init -p
to set up the plugin automatically.
ES Features
This repo comes with its own Babel build which includes all ES6 and Stage 2 and Stage 3 features by default, except for the ES6 library polyfills.
If ES6 polyfills are desired it is advisable to import core-js libraries manually as needed.
To use Stage 1 features, these need to be manually enabled via configuration:
SystemJS.config({
meta: {
'*.js': {
babelOptions: {
stage1: true
}
}
}
});
If running in NodeJS or browsers that have ES2015 support, ES2015 feature transpilation can be disabled similarly:
SystemJS.config({
meta: {
'*.js': {
babelOptions: {
es2015: false
}
}
}
});
This allows workflows that just support ES modules and stage proposal transforms.
React JSX
To use React with JSX support set:
SystemJS.config({
meta: {
'*.js': {
babelOptions: {
react: true
}
}
}
});
Building and Bundling
Build support works with no further configuration through the standard jspm build and bundle commands.
To build with SystemJS builder manually, use the following build configuration:
builder.config({
map: {
'systemjs-babel-build': 'path/to/systemjs-plugin-babel/systemjs-babel-node.js'
}
});
builder.bundle('app.js', 'out-bundle.js'); // create a named bundle
builder.buildStatic('app.js', 'out-static.js', { format: 'cjs' }); // create a static optimized build
When using builder.buildStatic
, the ES module structure will be preserved and Rollup optimizations will included automatically
allowing for static dead code removal.
Custom Presets and Transforms
Custom presets and transforms can be set via babelOptions
config:
SystemJS.config({
map: {
'custom-preset': 'path/to/custom-preset.js',
'custom-plugin': 'path/to/custom-plugin.js'
},
meta: {
'*.js': {
babelOptions: {
presets: ['custom-preset'],
plugins: ['custom-plugin']
}
}
}
});
This way JSX support or other features can be included as needed (eg see http://jspm.io/0.17-beta-guide/installing-the-jsx-babel-plugin.html for jspm jsx support)
You can also pass options to Babel plugins the same way as in Node, without creating custom presets.
SystemJS.config({
meta: {
'*.js': {
babelOptions: {
plugins: [
// best installed via jspm install npm:babel-plugin-transform-async-to-module-method
["babel-plugin-transform-async-to-module-method", {
"module": "bluebird",
"method": "coroutine"
}]
]
}
}
}
});
