This Babel 7 preset transpiles ES2020, JSX, and selected language proposals. It also includes optimizations for specific contexts.
$ npm install -D @kensho-technologies/babel-presetYou can set up Babel transpilation in several ways. Choose a method, and configure Babel to include the preset, e.g. in a babel.config.json:
{
"presets": ["@kensho-technologies/babel-preset"]
}The preset can be configured using several options. Note that some options' defaults depend on the Babel environment, which may be one of the following:
| Environment | Purpose |
|---|---|
development |
Transpiling an app for development. |
production |
Transpiling an app for production. |
test |
Transpiling an app or library to run in the current version of Node. |
cjs |
Transpiling a library for distribution as CJS. |
esm |
Transpiling a library for distribution as ESM. |
The present extends @babel/preset-env, and forwards all additional options to that preset.
false | options
Default: false
Whether to enable support for CSS-in-JS via Emotion. If an options object is passed, it is forwarded to the Emotion plugin. This option requires an additional dependency on @emotion/react.
false | 'commonjs'
Default: 'commonjs' in test and cjs envs, false otherwise
Whether to compile ESM imports/exports to another module format.
// false:
import foo from './foo'
// 'commonjs' (roughly):
const foo = require('./foo')false | options
Default: {}
Whether to transpile JSX expressions. If an options object is passed, it is forwarded to the React preset.
false | options
Default: {} in development env if react is enabled
Whether to transform React function components for fast refresh. If an options object is passed, it is forwarded to the React Refresh plugin. The list of available options is not currently documented.
This option should only ever be enabled in development. It also requires bundler integration because the output code references global variables containing the Refresh runtime. If this integration cannot be added to a project's development environment, this option should be disabled.
true | false
Default: true
Whether to enable the Babel runtime transform. This is encouraged to reduce bundle size, but requires adding @babel/runtime as a dependency.
See @babel/preset-env options documentation.
Default: current node version in test environment, inferred from browserslist config otherwise
The transpilation targets to pass to @babel/preset-env.
false | options
Default: {}
Whether to enable TypeScript support. If an options object is passed, it's passed to the TypeScript preset.
