babel-plugin-import-redirect

library1.1.1jsnpmunverified

A Babel plugin (v1.1.1) that rewrites import, export from, require() and dynamic import() paths to custom destinations, primarily used for mocking in tests. Last updated in 2017, it supports regex-based redirects, extra function handling, and global replacements. Unlike module aliases or webpack resolve aliases, this operates at the Babel AST level, allowing fine-grained control per file. Requires Node >=4 and babel 6/7.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ module.exports = require('babel-plugin-import-redirect')

CommonJS-only; no default ESM export.

Shows basic plugin setup with root and redirect map, and how source code changes.

// .babelrc { "plugins": [ ["import-redirect", { "root": "./tests/mocks", "redirect": { "connect": "./connect.mocked", "\\.css$": false } }] ] } // src/index.js import connect from 'connect'; import './style.css'; // Transpiles to: // import connect from '../tests/mocks/connect.mocked'; // (style.css import removed because redirected to false)

Known issues

gotchaDynamic import() requires babel-plugin-syntax-dynamic-import to be listed before import-redirect.

fix

Add 'syntax-dynamic-import' to plugins array before 'import-redirect'.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaRegex redirect keys must be supplied as strings; escaping backslashes is required in JSON.

fix

Use double backslashes (e.g., '\\.css$' for .css files).

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaRedirect value false removes the import entirely, but this may cause missing variable errors.

fix

Ensure no code expects the removed import, or use a mock file instead.

affects: >=1.0.0
