.browserslistrc being ignored from @babel/preset-env

[kylemh]

Current Behavior

I have a custom babel config:

{
  "presets": ["@babel/preset-env", "@babel/react", "@babel/typescript"],
  "plugins": ["@babel/plugin-transform-react-display-name", "@babel/plugin-proposal-object-rest-spread"]
}

and a .browserslistrc file with Edge 16 (among others)

The build step includes destructured object spread operators :(

Expected behavior

The spread operators are transpiled down to something more acceptable for the browsers I want to use based off of .browserslistrc.

Suggested solution(s)

Fast track #634

Your environment

Software	Version(s)
TSDX	latest
TypeScript	latest
Browser	Edge 16
npm/Yarn	yarn
Node	v10.16.2
Operating System	MacOS latest

I couldn't figure out or prevent my project from bundling with spread operator 😢

Ended up just slapping the Babel-CLI onto the end of the build process 🙃

Would love some help fixing this.

Ah this is the problem

@kylemh so does a .browserslistrc file work? In-line config for preset-env inside of babelrc should work, but we don't have tests for an external .browserslistrc file and I was concerned some of the path resolution might affect it.

@kylemh following up on my previous question

[kylemh]

Ill jump into this ticket and the Storybook one tomorrow! I’ve got them both saved.

[kylemh]

Make it one more day... Sorry about the delay.

[kylemh]

thanks a ton @agilgur5 really helping me ❤️

hoping to get back to TSDX stuff soon

@kylemh I manually tested a .browserslistrc while writing up #795 and can confirm it worked. Will even error out if you've got an unknown Browserslist query, typo, etc.

Probably still good to add an integration test for .browserslistrc to make sure it continues to work

[kylemh]

Right, sorry for continuing to comment, but I actually closed this when I realized that this was the problem.

[agilgur5]

Yes, I realize that, but I had also asked above #655 (comment) if .browserslistrc actually does work or not which never got a response. I was able to test this myself now so have a confirmation on that.
