@hackr/multi-babel

Add this plugin to generate an alternative babel compilation for your existing bundles. It's a fork of prateekbh/babel-esm-plugin Works with Webpack4 and Babel7

yarn add -D @hackr/multi-babel

Note

This plugin only works when you're already using babel-preset-env.

Also, there is an expectation that your babel-preset-env is configured in the shape:

{
  use: {
    loader: 'babel-loader',
    options: {
      "presets": [["@babel/preset-env", {
        "targets": {
          "browsers": ["last 2 versions", "safari >= 7"]
        }
        ....
      }]]
    },
  },
}

Options

new MultiBabelPlugin({
  filename: 'es6/[name].js',
  chunkFilename: 'es6/[id].js',
  excludedPlugins: [...],
  additionalPlugins: [...],
  beforeStartExecution: function(plugins, babelConfig) {}
});

1. filename: Output name of es6 bundles. (default: '[name].es6.js')
2. chunkFilename: Output name of es6 chunks. (default: '[id].es6.js')
3. excludedPlugins: List of plugins you want to exclude from generating es6 bundles.
4. additionalPlugins: List of plugins you want to add while generating es6 bundles.
5. beforeStartExecution: A callback function which passes all plugins and the new babel config, to a function where the user can modify them before starting the ESM build.
