snowpack-plugin-selective-import-to-require

Selectively convert import calls into require calls. Useful for running snowpack with Electron.

npm install --save-dev snowpack-plugin-selective-import-to-require

// snowpack.config.json
module.exports = {
  "plugins": [
    [
      "snowpack-plugin-selective-import-to-require",
      {
        "modules": ["os", "child_process"],
        "types": ['.js'],
      }
    ]
  ]
}

Plugin Options

Name	Type	Description
modules	string[]	An array of module names to match against, such as ['os', 'child_process'].
types	string[]	(optional) By default, this plugin matches against ['.js']. Provide an array if you need to match other extensions.

Match Built-in Node Modules

It may be convenient to match all built-in node modules.

npm install builtin-modules --save-dev

// snowpack.config.json
const builtinModules = require('builtin-modules')

module.exports = {
  "plugins": [
    [
      "snowpack-plugin-selective-import-to-require",
      {
        "modules": builtinModules,
        "types": ['.js'],
      }
    ]
  ],
  "packageOptions": {
    "external": builtinModules
  },
}
