ember-cli-6to5

ember-cli-6to5

This Ember-CLI plugin uses 6to5 to allow you to use ES6 syntax with your Ember-CLI project.

Installation

npm install --save-dev ember-cli-6to5

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 6to5 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 6to5 transfoms your code, you can do it by passing in any of the options found here. Example:

// Brocfile.js

var app = new EmberApp({
	'6to5': {
		// 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 6to5 module compilation by blacklisting that transform. If you find that you want to use the 6to5 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.
