rollup-plugin-browserify-transform

library1.0.1jsnpmunverified

A Rollup plugin that lets you use any Browserify transform (e.g., brfs, coffeeify) within Rollup. Version 1.0.1 is stable but rarely updated; it bridges gaps where no equivalent Rollup plugin exists. Unlike manual transform replication, this plugin wraps Browserify transforms directly, accepting options like include/exclude patterns. It depends on Rollup's plugin system and the transform package itself. Use when migrating from Browserify to Rollup, but prefer native Rollup plugins for performance and compatibility.

Code

Verified usage

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

default (browserifyPlugin)

✓ import browserifyPlugin from 'rollup-plugin-browserify-transform'

✗ const browserifyPlugin = require('rollup-plugin-browserify-transform')

Default export, not named. CommonJS require works but is not recommended for ESM projects.

browserifyPlugin (with named import)

✓ import { browserifyPlugin } from 'rollup-plugin-browserify-transform'

✗ const { browserifyPlugin } = require('rollup-plugin-browserify-transform')

No named export exists; only default export. Use default import.

transform function usage

✓ import brfs from 'brfs'; browserifyPlugin(brfs)

✗ browserifyPlugin(require('brfs')); // works but ESM prefer imports

Pass the transform function directly, not a module path string.

Shows how to use the default export with a Browserify transform (brfs) in Rollup config.

// rollup.config.js (ESM) import browserifyPlugin from 'rollup-plugin-browserify-transform'; import brfs from 'brfs'; export default { input: 'src/index.js', output: { file: 'dist/bundle.js', format: 'cjs' }, plugins: [ browserifyPlugin(brfs, { /* transform options */ }), ], };

Debug

Known issues

gotchaBrowserify transforms may not work correctly with ES module syntax or Rollup's tree-shaking.

fix

Test transforms thoroughly; prefer native Rollup plugins when available.

affects: >=1.0

breakingBreaking change: Rollup >=0.25 required; older versions not supported.

fix

Upgrade Rollup to 0.25 or later.

affects: >=1.0

gotchaThe plugin ignores include/exclude options if not provided; defaults to all files.

fix

Explicitly set include/exclude to narrow scope and avoid unnecessary transforms.

affects: >=1.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error: Cannot find module 'rollup-plugin-browserify-transform'

Package not installed or incorrect import path.

fix

Run npm install --save-dev rollup-plugin-browserify-transform

TypeError: browserifyPlugin is not a function

Named import when only default export exists.

fix

Use import browserifyPlugin from 'rollup-plugin-browserify-transform'

The transform function must be a function. Got undefined

Passed a module name string instead of the actual transform function.

fix

Import the transform module and pass the function: import brfs from 'brfs'; browserifyPlugin(brfs)
