rax-babel-config

library2.0.4jsnpmunverified

Base Babel configuration for the Rax framework (cross-platform React-like UI). Version 2.0.4 is the latest stable release. This package provides a factory function that returns a Babel config object, with options to enable JSX stylesheet transforms, JSX+ plugins, JSX-to-HTML transforms, Node target preset-env, and Regenerator runtime control. It is part of the rax-scripts monorepo. Key differentiator: designed specifically for Rax projects, encapsulating the needed presets and plugins for optimal Rax development.

Verified usage

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

getBabelConfig

✓ const getBabelConfig = require('rax-babel-config');

✗ import { getBabelConfig } from 'rax-babel-config';

Package does not ship ES modules; use CommonJS require. No default export.

getBabelConfig

✓ import getBabelConfig from 'rax-babel-config';

✗ import { getBabelConfig } from 'rax-babel-config';

This works only if using bundler with CJS interop (e.g., Babel's module transform). In Node ESM, use createRequire.

getBabelConfig

✓ const { getBabelConfig } = require('rax-babel-config');

Destructuring works but function is the only export.

Shows how to install and use rax-babel-config to generate a Babel config for a Rax project.

const getBabelConfig = require('rax-babel-config'); const babelConfig = getBabelConfig({ styleSheet: true, jsxPlus: false, jsxToHtml: false, isNode: false, disableRegenerator: false }); console.log(JSON.stringify(babelConfig, null, 2));

Debug

Known issues

breakingVersion 3.x of rax-scripts introduced breaking changes for postcss-loader options in rax-webpack-config and @builder/rax-pack.

fix

Update your postcss-loader configuration to match new options format; refer to changelog.

affects: >=3.8.16

deprecatedrax-babel-config is a legacy package; consider migrating to the newer @builder/rax-babel-config.

fix

Replace rax-babel-config with @builder/rax-babel-config in package.json and update imports.

affects: >=2.0.4

gotchaPackage does not export as ES module; must use require() in Node.js CommonJS. Using import may fail depending on bundler/Node version.

fix

Use require() or set up CJS interop.

affects: >=2.0.0

gotchaThe 'styleSheet' option enables a plugin that transforms JSX style objects; if not needed, disable to avoid unnecessary transforms.

fix

Set styleSheet: false in options if not using inline styles.

affects: >=2.0.0

gotchaThe 'jsxPlus' option enables JSX+ syntax (e.g., loops, conditionals). Ensure your Babel runtime supports these extensions.

fix

Install @babel/plugin-transform-react-jsx if jsxPlus is used incorrectly.

affects: >=2.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Cannot find module 'rax-babel-config'

Package not installed or not in node_modules.

fix

Run 'npm install rax-babel-config --save-dev'.

require() of ES Module not supported

Trying to require a package that is defined as type: module in package.json.

fix

Use dynamic import() or convert to CommonJS. Note: rax-babel-config itself is CJS, but if your project is ESM, use createRequire.

getBabelConfig is not a function

Incorrect import style; package exports a function directly, not a named export.

fix

Use 'const getBabelConfig = require('rax-babel-config');' as default import.

TypeError: Cannot read property 'presets' of undefined

Babel config merging issue; getBabelConfig returns an object, but it may need to be spread into a full babel config.

fix

Properly merge the returned config object with your base Babel configuration.
