A placeholder package that bridges babel-core to @babel/core.

Package Exports

  • babel-core
  • babel-core/package
  • babel-core/package.json

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (babel-core) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

babel-bridge

This repo holds what we're calling a "bridge" package that is meant to ease the transition for libraries that use "babel-core" as a peer dependency for Babel 6.

The issue with Babel 7's transition to scopes is that if a package depends on Babel 6, they may want to add support for Babel 7 alongside. Because Babel 7 will be released as @babel/core instead of babel-core, maintainers have no way to do that transition without making a breaking change. e.g.

peerDependencies: {
  "babel-core": "6.x"
}

cannot change to

peerDependencies: {
  "@babel/core": "6.x"
}

without it being a breaking change.

Solution

To address this, we're releasing this bridge package, to allow users to do

peerDependencies: {
  "babel-core": "6.x | ^7.0.0-bridge"
}

then where users of this package would originally have done

npm i some-package babel-core

to install Babel 6, they could now do

npm i some-package babel-core@^7.0.0-bridge @babel/core

to install the bridge package, and install Babel 7's core.
