Background

The import/export syntax is becoming more and more popular. Given a huge, legacy AMD application it's not trivial to migrate it all at once. The converter can help you transpile the modules into the AMD syntax temporarily for backwards compatibility.

Install

npm install @buxlabs/es6-to-amd

Usage

node

Convert a single file with:

const es6toamd = require('@buxlabs/es6-to-amd');
const source = 'export default { hello: 'world' }';
const result = es6toamd(source); // define({ hello: 'world' });

Examples

ES

import Backbone from 'backbone';

export default Backbone.Model.extend({});

AMD

define(['backbone'], function (Backbone) {
    'use strict';
    return Backbone.Model.extend({});
});

There are more examples in the test/fixture directory.
