Babel preset for react development with some additional ECMAScript propersal based on babel-preset-react.

NOTE:

- Requires Babel v6+.
- babel-preset-es2015/es2016/es2017/latest are excluded. You need to download them manually.
- async/await was offically moved into babel-preset-es2017.

Install

$ npm install --save-dev babel-preset-react-plus

Introdcution

This preset includes the following ECMAScript propersals:

Since above five are becoming the most frequently used propersals in react apps I decide to intergrate them into one preset which also includes the basic babel-preset-react. so that we no longer need to download them separately and enable these propersals by downloading corresponding syntax-parsing plugins manually. Except this you can also download babel-preset-stage-* together with those syntax-parsing plugins but it is unconvenient and includes some other transform modules you'll probably never use. Recently babel finally integrated their transform plugins with the corresponding syntax-parsing plugins thus we no longer need to download them separately. However I still think this preset useful since the stage of propersals always change frequently which means it's hard to decide which preset-stage plugin should choose.

Internal presets and plugins


Boilerplate


decorators

react-redux

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';

@connect(
  state => ({ todos: state.todos }),
  actionCreators
)
class App extends Component {
  ...
}

export default App;

react-router

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { withRouter } from 'react-router';

@withRouter
class App extends Component {
  ...
}

export default App;

core-decorators

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { autobind } from 'core-decorators';

@autobind
class App extends Component {
  // You don't have to set this.handleClick.bind(this) in
  // constructor or the place where it's being called
  handleClick() {...}
  ...
}

export default App;

class-properties

import React, { Component } from 'react';

class App extends Component {
  state = {}

  handleClick = (e) => {
    
  }
  ...
}

export default App;

object-spread-rest

// Sometimes useful in redux

// reducer
const users = (state = {}, action) => {
  switch(action.type) {
    case "ADD_USER": {
      return {
        ...state,
        [action.id] = action.info
      }
    }
    ...
  }
}

export-extensions

// It's a common pattern which separates React components into corresponding files 
// And we need to create a index.js to export all imported components

// Before
import A from './a';
import B from './b';
import C from './c';
import { foo, bar } from './utils';

export { A, B, C, foo, bar };
//or
export { default as A } from './a';
export { default as B } from './b';
export { default as C } from './c';
export { foo, bar } from './utils';

// After
export A from './a';
export B from './b';
export C from './c';
export * as utils from './utils';
