gulp-babel-globals

library2.0.0jsnpmunverified

Gulp plugin for babel-globals that allows you to define global variable names for Babel modules during a Gulp build pipeline. Version 2.0.0 is the latest stable release, with no frequent updates. It wraps babel-globals (v2.x) to integrate with Gulp streams. Differentiators: it provides a Gulp-friendly API for handling ES6 module globals, which is useful for legacy builds or specific bundling needs. Alternatives include using Babel directly with custom plugins.

Verified usage

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

default

✓ import babelGlobals from 'gulp-babel-globals'

✗ const babelGlobals = require('gulp-babel-globals')

CommonJS require works, but ESM import is preferred for modern projects

gulpBabelGlobals

✓ import * as gulpBabelGlobals from 'gulp-babel-globals'

Namespace import to access all exports

default

✓ const babelGlobals = require('gulp-babel-globals')

✗ import { babelGlobals } from 'gulp-babel-globals'

The package exports a single function as default; named import will be undefined

Shows basic usage: pipe JavaScript files through gulp-babel-globals with options

const gulp = require('gulp'); const babelGlobals = require('gulp-babel-globals'); gulp.task('globals', () => { return gulp.src('src/**/*.js') .pipe(babelGlobals({ bundleFileName: 'myBundle.js' })) .pipe(gulp.dest('dist')); });

Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe plugin only processes files ending in .js; other extensions are ignored silently.

fix

Ensure input files have .js extension or configure gulp.src accordingly.

affects: >=2.0.0

deprecatedThe 'bundleFileName' option is required but not validated; missing it may cause errors.

fix

Always provide a 'bundleFileName' option in the options object.

affects: 2.0.0

gotchaThis plugin is not compatible with Babel 7+ because babel-globals has not been updated.

fix

Use an alternative approach for Babel 7 or higher, such as custom Gulp transforms.

affects: >=2.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Cannot find module 'babel-globals'

babel-globals is a peer dependency that must be installed separately.

fix

Run 'npm install babel-globals' alongside gulp-babel-globals.

TypeError: babelGlobals is not a function

Incorrect import: using named import instead of default import.

fix

Use 'const babelGlobals = require("gulp-babel-globals")' or 'import babelGlobals from "gulp-babel-globals"'.
