gulp-babel-transpiler

library0.1.1jsnpmunverified

Gulp plugin to transpile ES6 (ES2015) files to ES5 using babel-core. Current version 0.1.1, no known release cadence. Key differentiator: wraps babel-core as a Gulp pipeline plugin, but is very early and unmaintained. Consider using @babel/gulp-babel instead, as this package is essentially abandoned and relies on outdated babel-core 5.x.

Code

Verified usage

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

default (transpile)

✓ var transpile = require('gulp-babel-transpiler');

✗ import transpile from 'gulp-babel-transpiler';

Package does not support ESM; only CommonJS. Named exports are also not available; the default export is the function itself.

babel (pipe usage)

✓ .pipe(babel())

✗ .pipe(babel({ presets: ['es2015'] }))

Options passed to babel-core, but in this version babel-core 5.x does not use presets. Options are passed directly to babel-core's transform method.

Basic Gulp task using gulp-babel-transpiler to transpile .js files from es6 to es5_app directory.

var gulp = require('gulp'); var babel = require('gulp-babel-transpiler'); gulp.task('default', function() { return gulp.src('./es6/*.js') .pipe(babel()) .pipe(gulp.dest('./es5_app')); });

Debug

Known issues

deprecatedPackage uses babel-core 5.x which is no longer maintained. Use @babel/gulp-babel with babel 6+ and presets.

fix

Migrate to @babel/gulp-babel and @babel/preset-env.

affects: >=0.0.1

gotchaNo options for presets or plugins; all options are passed directly to babel-core 5.x transform, which has different API compared to babel 6+.

fix

If you need modern Babel features, switch to @babel/gulp-babel.

affects: >=0.0.1

breakingPackage has no named exports; require('gulp-babel-transpiler') returns a single function. Do not destructure or import named.

fix

Use const babel = require('gulp-babel-transpiler');

affects: >=0.0.1
