What is babel-plugin-ember-modules-api-polyfill?

The babel-plugin-ember-modules-api-polyfill package is a Babel plugin that allows developers to use the new JavaScript module API for Ember.js. It automatically transforms the new module syntax into the older global API, making it easier to adopt modern JavaScript practices while maintaining compatibility with existing Ember.js codebases.

What are babel-plugin-ember-modules-api-polyfill's main functionalities?

Transforming new module syntax to global API

This feature allows developers to use the new ES6 module syntax for importing Ember.js components, which the plugin then transforms into the older global API syntax. This makes it easier to write modern JavaScript while ensuring compatibility with older Ember.js versions.

import Component from '@ember/component';

export default Component.extend({
  // component logic
});

Automatic polyfilling

The plugin automatically polyfills the new module API, allowing developers to use modern import statements for Ember services, components, and other modules. This reduces boilerplate and improves code readability.

import { inject as service } from '@ember/service';

export default Component.extend({
  myService: service(),
  // component logic
});
