@greenwood/plugin-import-commonjs v0.29.3

@greenwood/plugin-import-commonjs

Overview

A plugin for Greenwood for loading CommonJS based modules (require / module.exports) in the browser using ESM (import / export) syntax. Note: It is highly encouraged that you favor ESM based packages for the cleanest / fastest interop and developer experience. Additional processing time and dependencies are required to handle the conversion.

This package assumes you already have @greenwood/cli installed.

Installation

You can use your favorite JavaScript package manager to install this package.

examples:

# npm
npm install @greenwood/plugin-import-commonjs --save-dev

# yarn
yarn add @greenwood/plugin-import-commonjs --dev

Usage

Add this plugin to your greenwood.config.js and spread the export.

import { greenwoodPluginImportCommonJs } from '@greenwood/plugin-import-commonjs';

export default {
  ...

  plugins: [
    greenwoodPluginImportCommonJs()
  ]
}

This will then allow you to use a CommonJS based modules in the browser. For example, here is how you could use lodash (although as mentioned above, in this case, you would want to use lodash-es instead.)

// <script src="my-file.js">
import _ from 'lodash';

.
.

console.log(_.defaults({ 'a': 1 }, { 'a': 3, 'b': 2 }));  // { 'a': 1, 'b': 2 }
