taskr-esbuild

library1.0.6jsnpmunverified

Esbuild plugin for Taskr, a tiny build tool. Current stable version is 1.0.6 with no active development (last release in 2020). It allows using esbuild as a Taskr plugin, supporting Vue 3, React, and Preact, with basic CSS/Sass/Less/Stylus imports and image/JSON imports. Differentiator: part of the minimal Taskr ecosystem (7MB node_modules), but esbuild has since evolved and the plugin may lag behind. No known release cadence.

Verified usage

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

taskr-esbuild

✓ import 'taskr-esbuild' // just install; plugin is auto-loaded by Taskr

✗ const esbuildTask = require('taskr-esbuild') // will not work; Taskr expects the plugin to be registered via package name

Plugin is used by Taskr automatically once installed; no explicit import needed in taskfile.

Shows how to define a Taskr task that uses the esbuild plugin to transpile JavaScript files.

// taskfile.js module.exports = function (task) { task('esbuild', function * () { yield task.source('src/**/*.js').esbuild().target('dist/js'); }); };
