Allow parsing of the function.sent meta property
Package description
@babel/plugin-syntax-function-sent is a Babel plugin that allows parsing of the `function.sent` meta-property in generator functions. This meta-property is used to access the value sent to the generator by the `next` method.
Parsing function.sent
This feature allows the generator function to access the value sent to it via the `next` method using the `function.sent` meta-property. This can be useful for handling values passed into the generator at different stages of its execution.
function* generator() {
console.log(function.sent);
yield;
}
const gen = generator();
gen.next('first'); // Logs: 'first'
gen.next('second'); // Logs: 'second'@babel/plugin-transform-function-sent is a Babel plugin that transforms the `function.sent` meta-property into a form that can be understood by environments that do not natively support it. This plugin is useful for ensuring compatibility with older JavaScript environments.
@babel/plugin-syntax-async-generators is a Babel plugin that allows parsing of async generator functions. While it does not specifically handle `function.sent`, it provides similar functionality for async generators, enabling the use of `await` within generator functions.
