fastify-babel NPM Version

Fastify Babel plugin for development servers

Never load this plugin on production servers

The purpose of this module is for running a test HTTP server directly from sources. Babel transformations are not async and all additional requests are blocked while transformation is in process.

You should always use a build step to install pre-transformed files to production servers.

Install fastify-babel

This module requires node.js 10 or above. It is should normally be used with fastify-static >= 0.12.0. This module requires the local filename to be in payload.filename.

npm i --save-dev fastify-babel @babel/core

Usage

'use strict';

const path = require('path');
const fastify = require('fastify')();
const fastifyStatic = require('fastify-static');
const fastifyBabel = require('fastify-babel');

fastify
    .register(fastifyStatic, {
        root: path.join(__dirname, 'html/myapp'),
        prefix: '/myapp',
    })
    .register(fastifyStatic, {
        root: path.join(__dirname, 'node_modules'),
        prefix: '/node_modules',
        decorateReply: false,
    })
    .register(fastifyBabel, {
        babelrc: {
            plugins: ['bare-import-rewrite'],
        },
    })
    .listen(3000, '127.0.0.1', err => {
        if (err) {
            throw err;
        }
        console.log(`server listening at http://127.0.0.1:${fastify.server.address().port}/`);
    });

In addition to fastify-babel this example requires fastify-static and babel-plugin-bare-import-rewrite.

Options

babelrc

An object provided directly to babel for each request that is processed. Default is empty.

babelTypes

A RegExp object used to match the Content-Type header. Only replies with matching header will be processed by babel. Default /(java|ecma)script/.

maskError

Setting this to false will allow the full error message to be displayed. By default errors are masked to prevent disclosure of server details.

cache

A Map-like object for caching transform results. This object must have support for both get and set methods.

cacheHashSalt

A string used to salt the hash of source content.
