library0.1.1jsnpmunverified

Babel 7 plugin that resolves webpack resolve aliases during Babel transpilation. Version 0.1.1, last updated in 2019, with no recent releases. It replaces require paths defined in webpack alias configuration, useful for unit testing environments where webpack is not used. Compared to the original Babel 6 version, it uses a simpler config option without lodash templates. The package is in early development and seeking feedback.

Verified usage

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

default

✓ // No import needed; add to .babelrc plugins array as 'babel-plugin-webpack-alias-7'

✗ import babelPluginWebpackAlias7 from 'babel-plugin-webpack-alias-7'

This is a Babel plugin, not a JavaScript module. It is configured via .babelrc or babel.config.js, not imported directly.

N/A (plugin usage)

✓ plugins: [ ['babel-plugin-webpack-alias-7', { config: './webpack.config.js' }] ]

✗ plugins: [ 'babel-plugin-webpack-alias' ]

Do not use the Babel 6 version of the plugin name. Use 'babel-plugin-webpack-alias-7' with options object.

N/A (CommonJS)

✓ require('babel-plugin-webpack-alias-7')

✗ require('babel-plugin-webpack-alias')

CommonJS require works in Node.js for Babel config files. Ensure correct package name.

Shows how to configure the plugin and use webpack aliases in Babel.

// .babelrc { "plugins": [ ["babel-plugin-webpack-alias-7", { "config": "./webpack.config.js" }] ] } // webpack.config.js var path = require('path'); module.exports = { resolve: { alias: { '@libs': path.join(__dirname, '/myLibs/') } } }; // source.js const myLib = require('@libs/myLib'); // transpiles to: const myLib = require('/myLibs/myLib');

Debug

Known issues

gotchaPlugin is in early development and may have limited functionality compared to the Babel 6 version.

fix

Review the readme for changes; consider using the original Babel 6 plugin if more features are needed.

affects: >=0.1.0

gotchaThe plugin requires a webpack config file; if not specified, it looks for webpack.config.js or webpack.config.babel.js in the root.

fix

Ensure a webpack config file exists or provide the config option explicitly.

affects: >=0.1.0

deprecatedThe 'findConfig' and 'noOutputExtension' options have been removed without replacement.

fix

Do not rely on these options; they are not available in this version.

affects: >=0.1.0

breakingThe config option no longer uses lodash templates, which may break configurations relying on that behavior.

fix

Remove lodash templates from the config path; use a static string path.

affects: >=0.1.0

Errors

Error: Could not find plugin 'babel-plugin-webpack-alias-7'

Plugin not installed or package name misspelled

fix

Run 'npm install --save-dev babel-plugin-webpack-alias-7' and ensure the package name is correct in .babelrc

Error: Cannot find module 'webpack'

webpack is not installed, but the plugin requires it to parse the webpack config

fix

Run 'npm install --save-dev webpack' or ensure webpack is a dependency

Error: The 'findConfig' option is not supported

Using option from Babel 6 version that was removed in this plugin

fix

Remove 'findConfig' option; see documentation for current options
