babel-preset-lux

library2.0.2jsnpmunverified

A Babel preset that bundles all plugins required by Lux, a React-like framework by Postlight. Version 2.0.2 is the latest stable release, last updated in 2018. It targets Node >= 6.0 and includes preconfigured transforms for JSX, class properties, and other modern JavaScript features used by Lux. Compared to general-purpose presets like babel-preset-env, this preset is tightly coupled to Lux's specific plugin set and is not intended for standalone use. Maintenance is minimal as the Lux project itself appears inactive.

default preset

✓ { "presets": ["lux"] }

✗ { "presets": ["babel-preset-lux"] }

Babel resolves presets with 'babel-preset-' prefix automatically, so just 'lux' works.

require in Node API

✓ require('babel-core').transform('code', { presets: ['lux'] })

✗ const babel = require('@babel/core'); babel.transform('code', { presets: ['lux'] })

This preset predates @babel/core; use babel-core, not @babel/core for v2.

npx babel

✓ npx babel script.js --presets lux

✗ npx babel script.js --presets babel-preset-lux

CLI also auto-resolves the preset name.

Shows minimal setup: install via npm, configure .babelrc with preset 'lux', and run Babel CLI to compile code.

// .babelrc { "presets": ["lux"] } // Install npm install --save-dev babel-preset-lux babel-core // Then build npx babel src --out-dir lib
