CAR FOR YOU Example

A @pika/pack build plugin. Adds a Node.js distribution to your package, built & optimized to run on Node.js. If no other distribution is included with your package, many other tools & bundlers can understand this format as well.

Installation

npm install @carforyou/pika-plugin-build-standalone-node

Usage

{
  "name": "example-pkg",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "@pika/pack": {
    "pipeline": [
      ["@pika/plugin-standard-pkg"],
      ["@carforyou/pika-plugin-build-standalone-node", {}]
    ]
  }
}

Only works with @pika/plugin-ts-standard-pkg as it currently relies on typescript to write the source file. In your tsconfig.pika.json, include the separate source node.ts:

"include": ["src/index.ts", "src/node.ts"],

Add your node-specific code to src/node.ts.

Options

• "sourcemap" (Default: "true"): Adds a source map for this build.
• "minNodeVersion" (Default: "8"): This plugin will build your package for the current minimum Node.js LTS major version. This option allows you to target later versions of Node.js only.
• "entrypoint" (Default: "main"): Customize the package.json manifest entrypoint set by this plugin. Accepts either a string, an array of strings, or null to disable entrypoint. Changing this is not recommended for most usage.

Result

1. Adds a Node.js distribution to your built package: dist-node/node.js based on dist-src/node.js
2. Common.js (CJS) Module Syntax
3. Transpiled to run on Node.js LTS (Currently, supports Node.js version v6+)
4. Adds a "main" entrypoint to your built package.json manifest.

Development

cd pika-plugin-build-standalone-node-pkg
npm run build

cd carforyou-listings-web
npm link ../pika-plugin-build-standalone-node-pkg/pkg
