Babel plugin to transpile import() to a deferred require(), for node
The babel-plugin-dynamic-import-node package is a Babel plugin that transpiles the ECMAScript dynamic import() syntax to a deferred require() call. This transformation allows for code splitting and dynamic module loading in environments that do not natively support the import() syntax. It is particularly useful for server-side applications or tests running in Node.js where dynamic import is not available or practical.
Transpile import() to require()
This feature allows developers to use the dynamic import() syntax in their code, which babel-plugin-dynamic-import-node will transpile into a deferred require() call. This enables dynamic module loading and code splitting in environments that do not support import() natively.
import('path/to/module').then(module => {\n // Use module\n});This package allows Babel to parse the dynamic import() syntax. However, unlike babel-plugin-dynamic-import-node, it does not transpile import() to require(). It's used in conjunction with other plugins or presets that handle the transformation or in environments that support dynamic imports.
Similar to babel-plugin-dynamic-import-node, this plugin transforms dynamic import() syntax into a require() call. The difference lies in the implementation details and the specific use cases they target. While babel-plugin-dynamic-import-node is focused on Node.js environments, babel-plugin-transform-dynamic-import may offer broader compatibility or different configuration options.
