synk-js

Classes for connecting to a synk server.

Entry Point Options

• main: 'dist/synk.js' transpiled to umd - node 8 uses main
• module: 'src/index.js' es6 classes with 'import' statements

Using the module entry point

Import statements looks like this:

import './Connection'; // looks for ./Connection.es6.js

Your resolver needs to expect the .es6.js extension. Webpack offers an easy solution.

Webpack Example

Note that client code that uses webpack will probably want to use a webpack rule like the one below:

  // We need to add .es6.js to import resolution.
  resolve: {
    extensions: [".js", ".json", ".es6.js"]
  },
  module: {
    rules: [
      // Compile client es6. Only needed if host module needs to compile es6.
      {
        test: /\.js$/,
        exclude: /(node_modules|bower_components)/,
        use: {
          loader: 'babel-loader',
        }
      },
      // If we encounter a .es6.js file in node_modules, babel it. This is
      // required for host modules that use the 'module' entrypoint.
      {
        test: /node_modules.*\.es6\.js$/,
        use: {
          loader: 'babel-loader'
        }
      }
    ]
  },
