What is regenerator-transform?

The regenerator-transform package is a plugin for Babel that allows you to transform ES2015+ generator functions into ES5 code. It is part of the Regenerator project, which aims to enable the use of generators and async functions in environments that do not natively support them. This package is typically used in the build process of JavaScript applications to ensure compatibility with older browsers or JavaScript engines.

What are regenerator-transform's main functionalities?

Generator Function Transformation

Transforms generator functions into ES5 code using the Babel plugin system. This allows developers to write modern JavaScript with generator functions and yield syntax, and then compile it down to code that can run in older JavaScript environments.

require('babel-core').transform('code', {
  plugins: ['regenerator-transform']
});

Async/Await Transformation

Enables the use of async/await syntax in JavaScript code by transforming it into generator functions and then into ES5 code. This is useful for writing asynchronous code in a more synchronous style, which can be easier to read and maintain.

require('babel-core').transform('async function foo() { await bar(); }', {
  plugins: ['regenerator-transform']
});
