babel-preset-es2015-node6

library0.4.0jsnpmunverified

Babel preset that enables ES2015 features missing from Node.js 6, such as ES modules compilation via transform-es2015-modules-commonjs. Version 0.4.0 is the latest stable release; the package is no longer actively maintained and was effectively superseded by @babel/preset-env. Unlike broader presets (e.g., babel-preset-es2015), this preset targets only Node.js 6, resulting in a smaller transform set. It supports a 'loose' option and a 'funcName' flag for Node.js < 6.5. No longer needed for modern Node.js versions.

default preset (es2015-node6)

✓ module.exports = { presets: ['es2015-node6'] }

✗ module.exports = { presets: ['babel-preset-es2015-node6'] }

When specifying presets in .babelrc or babel config, omit the 'babel-preset-' prefix.

loose option

✓ { presets: [['es2015-node6', { loose: true }]] }

✗ { presets: ['es2015-node6', { loose: true }] }

The options object must be wrapped in an array with the preset name.

object-rest variant

✓ { presets: ['es2015-node6/object-rest'] }

✗ { presets: ['es2015-node6'] }

Use 'es2015-node6/object-rest' if you need object-rest-spread support, otherwise destructuring and parameters may fail.

Shows how to install the preset, configure Babel, and transform an ES2015 module file for Node.js 6.

// Step 1: Install dependencies // npm install --save-dev babel-cli babel-preset-es2015-node6 // Step 2: Create .babelrc // { // "presets": ["es2015-node6"] // } // Step 3: Transform a file // npx babel script.js --out-file script-compiled.js // Example ES2015 code to transform import path from 'path'; const greet = (name) => `Hello, ${name}!`; console.log(greet('Node 6'));

Debug

Known issues

deprecatedbabel-preset-es2015-node6 is deprecated. Use @babel/preset-env with targets.node: '6' instead.

fix

Replace with @babel/preset-env: npm install --save-dev @babel/preset-env and configure targets: { node: '6' }.

affects: >=0.0.0

breakingThe 'object-rest' sub-preset is required for object-rest-spread; using the base preset may fail on destructuring and rest parameters.

fix

Use preset 'es2015-node6/object-rest' instead of 'es2015-node6' if you need object rest/spread.

affects: >=0.2.0

gotchaIf Node.js version is less than 6.5, automatic function name transformation is not enabled by default; code relying on function.name may break.

fix

Enable the 'funcName' option: { presets: [['es2015-node6', { funcName: true }]] }.

affects: >=0.0.0

deprecatedThis preset only targets Node.js 6; it will not be updated for newer Node versions.

fix

Upgrade to @babel/preset-env for broader Node.js support.

affects: >=0.0.0
