        .transform(barsBrowserify({
            extensions: ['.bars', '.whatever'],
            mode: 'DOM',

gulp and gulp-browserify

To incorporate bars-browserify into a gulp build process using gulp-browserify, register bars-browserify as a transform as follows:

gulp.task('js', function() {
    return gulp.src('src/main.js', { read: false })
        .pipe(browserify({
            transform: barsBrowserify({
                extensions: ['.bars', '.whatever'],
                mode: 'DOM',
                flags: {
                    minify: true
                }
            })
        }))
        .pipe(gulp.dest(paths.build));
});
