ember-cli-babel

This Ember-CLI plugin uses Babel to allow you to use ES6 syntax with your Ember-CLI project.

Installation

npm install --save-dev ember-cli-babel

Usage

This plugin should work without any configuration after installing. By default it will take every .js file in your project and run it through the Babel transpiler to convert the ES6 code to ES5. Running existing ES5 code through the transpiler shouldn't change the code at all (likely just a format change if it does).

If you need to customize the way that Babel transfoms your code, you can do it by passing in any of the options found here. Example:

// Brocfile.js

var app = new EmberApp({
	'babel': {
		// disable comments
		comments: false
	}
});

About Modules

Ember-CLI uses its own ES6 module transpiler for the custom Ember resolver that it uses. Because of that, this plugin disables Babel module compilation by blacklisting that transform. If you find that you want to use the Babel module transform instead of the Ember-CLI one, you'll have to explicitly set compileModules to true in your configuration. If compileModules is anything other than true, this plugin will leave the module syntax compilation up to Ember-CLI.
