Fixes #5623

Summary

TL;DR - basic topological ordering of plugins.

Currently this is just the minimal change necessary to make class properties and decorators work (not a final approach or anything and not done yet)

This PR adds 2 more properties to the Plugin object:

  • capabilities: an array of values (currently a string, maybe better as a number/semver like in package.json) to represent what a plugin can transform
  • dependencies: an array of values to represent which syntax needs to be transformed after this plugin is run (it depends on that syntax being there beforehand so it should go first)
  • before/after: an array of values to represent which plugin capabilities should be run before/after

This is technically not a breaking change since it's opt-in by the plugins but it would be easier done in 7.x?

TODO

  • can defer to separate discussion: how to specify dependencies and standardize on them (a string, package.json, semver)
    • maybe expose some symbols instead of a string? like babel.capabilities.arrowFunctions = Symbol()
  • handle cycles (dep A -> dep B -> dep C -> dep A) - just error with a good error message this probably isn't an issue and/or we will fix it when it's reported
  • do we need to handle presets? seems ok
  • later: handle multiple plugins providing the same capability - error with a good message because the plugin/preset is being included multiple times
  • add dependencies/capabilities for all internal plugins
  • how to handle multiple passes (deprecate passPerPreset and introduce a new option to enable it per preset individually?) - maybe not as important
  • how does this tie into preset-env (native environments provide the same capabilities and we need to use the same interface) https://github.com/babel/babel-preset-env/blob/master/data/plugin-features.js

Use case

  • plugin ordering of official plugins (both in spec and proposals)
  • third party plugins ordering
  • fork on outputting syntax based on capabilities
  • better config validation

Opt-in so 3rd party plugins can also provide capabilities/dependencies. Right now it's just a string but maybe it should be a versioned number?

I like it, thanks for working on this! As I reviewed the sortPlugins logic I thought you might be able to take advantage of dag-map which is what ember-cli uses for a similar purpose.

Thinking about it now, it's probably fine to not have every plugin have to have a capability anyway since it's opt-in and can be incremented added if someone needs it. It's easiest to do for proposals ironically.

Ok as discussed on slack, maybe dependencies isn't a good word for this because for this specific case. as @rwjblue describes:

  • plugin-a literally requires that plugin-b exists (currently what inherits already does)
  • plugin-a wants to know that it is ran before plugin-b if it happens to exist (kinda like an optionalDependency and specifying order)
  • ok maybe as a first pass "dependencies" are optional, we keep inherits

we probably don't need this bit anymore, given that we're making name compulsory. i'll remove it in my naming PR

prob safer to just say if (existingPluginName), this way empty strings can also be caught. (although that shouldn't be allowed in the first place).

Naive thinking perhaps, but judging by the conditionals above this one, it may freak out if plugin.before / plugin.after isn't present.

based on my prev comment, might wanna do a this.x = plugin.x || []; to account for cases where its not present?

hi @hzoo, on #5911, I've synced work on this branch with 7.0. Went a little nuts trying to rebase, so I just did a merge. Would you pls review and merge it since I can't push directly to this branch?

Once that's done, I can get #5842 ready too - it's essentially good to go, but is failing because it depends on this branch which is currently failing.

I feel like maybe a stronger approach here could be to introduce some kind of lifecycle hooks concept... to start with would be those known plugins which require one in particular to come before the other.
