Create a modified babel preset based on an an existing preset.

npm i -S modify-babel-preset

• API

  • Add/Update Plugins
  • Remove Plugins

• Example

  ---

A single function that takes an existing preset name and a mapping of plugin modifications to apply to that preset. Make sure you have the preset and any added plugins installed as dependencies.

newPreset = modifyBabelPreset(
	'existing-preset-name',
	{
		'plugin-name': false,  // remove
		'other-plugin': true,  // add
		'foo': { loose:true }  // add + config
	}
);

Modification keys are babel plugin names (you can exclude the babel-plugin- prefix).

To add a plugin, pass true, or a configuration object:

{
	// just add a plugin without config:
	'plugin-name': true,

	// add a plugin and set its config
	'other-plugin': { loose:true }
}

Note: adding a plugin that is already provided by the preset just overwrites its configuration.

To remove a plugin, pass false:

{
	'plugin-name': false
}

Here's a simple preset. Just this index.js and a package.json pointing to it with the preset and plugin installed as dependencies.

var modifyBabelPreset = require('modify-babel-preset');

// just export the cloned, modified preset config:
module.exports = modifyBabelPreset('es2015', {

	// remove the typeof x==='symbol' transform:
	'transform-es2015-typeof-symbol': false,

	// add the JSX transform:
	'transform-react-jsx': true

});
