agoric-labs-esm-built-pmb v3.2.26

esm + agoric labs patch + packaged for npm

• Original esm module (seemingly unmaintained): https://github.com/standard-things/esm
• Maintenance fork by Agoric Labs: https://github.com/agoric-labs/esm/
  • Original project announcement thread: https://github.com/standard-things/esm/issues/897
  • Bundling for npm: https://github.com/mk-pmb/agoric-labs-esm-built-pmb-js/

⚠ Upstream is unmaintained! ⚠

Unfortunately, while writing this module, it turned out that the Agoric fork is no longer maintained either.

Its tests fail on my CI, and on my dev machine the build fails, but their built version works for me, so I'll publish it anyway as was requested.

Read below: The Agoric Labs esm README.

Compatibility with Node.js 12+ ESM

As introduced in https://github.com/standard-things/esm/issues/897

The whole idea of this fork is to allow people to support Node.js's builtin ESM (what we affectionately call nesm) "type": "module" implementation without having to drop usage of require('esm') or node -r esm (what we affectionately call resm). This enables an entire tree of packages that currently use resm to also support nesm, provided the nesm support is enabled in a bottom-up traversal of dependency packages.

Just do:

# For NPM:
npm i -D agoric-labs/esm#Agoric-built
# For Yarn:
yarn add -D agoric-labs/esm#Agoric-built

Then continue using require('esm') as before.

If you don't trust the minified code, you can browse the patched source tree. We produced Agoric-built with:

yarn pub:agoric
git checkout -B Agoric-built
git stash pop
git commit -a -m "Built by pub:agoric"
git push -f origin Agoric-built

Have fun, The team at Agoric.

We now return you to the regularly-scheduled (though slightly outdated) README from https://github.com/standard-things/esm#readme:

esm

The brilliantly simple, babel-less, bundle-less ECMAScript module loader.

esm is the world’s most advanced ECMAScript module loader. This fast, production ready, zero dependency loader is all you need to support ECMAScript modules in Node 6+. See the release post and video for details!

Install

• New projects

  Run npm init esm or yarn create esm.

  :bulb: Use the -y flag to answer “yes” to all prompts.

• Existing projects

  Run npm i esm or yarn add esm.

Getting started

There are two ways to enable esm.

1. Enable esm for packages:

   Use esm to load the main ES module and export it as CommonJS.

   index.js

   // Set options as a parameter, environment variable, or rc file.
   require = require("esm")(module/*, options*/)
   module.exports = require("./main.js")

   main.js

   // ESM syntax is supported.
   export {}

   :bulb: These files are automagically created with npm init esm or yarn create esm.

2. Enable esm for local runs:

   node -r esm main.js

   :bulb: Omit the filename to enable esm in the REPL.

Features

:clap: By default, :100: percent CJS interoperability is enabled so you can get stuff done. :lock: .mjs files are limited to basic functionality without support for esm options.

Out of the box esm just works, no configuration necessary, and supports:

• Passing all applicable test262 compliance tests
• import/export
• import.meta
• Dynamic import
• Live bindings
• File URI scheme
• Node stdin, --eval, --print flags
• Node --check flag (Node 10+)

Options

Specify options with one of the following:

• "esm" field in package.json
• CJS/ESM in an .esmrc.js, .esmrc.cjs, or .esmrc.mjs file
• JSON6 in an .esmrc or .esmrc.json file
• JSON6 or file path in the ESM_OPTIONS environment variable
• ESM_DISABLE_CACHE environment variable

DevOpts

Tips

Bundling

• For bundlers like browserify+esmify, parcel-bundler, and webpack add a "module" field to package.json pointing to the main ES module.

  "main": "index.js",
  "module": "main.js"

  :bulb: This is automagically done with npm init esm or yarn create esm.

Extensions

• Enable esm for wallaby.js following their integration example.

Loading

• Load esm before loaders/monitors like @babel/register, newrelic, sqreen, and ts-node.

• Load esm for jasmine using the "helpers" field in jasmine.json:

  "helpers": [
    "node_modules/esm"
  ]

• Load esm with “node-args" options of:

  • pm2: --node-args="-r esm"

• Load esm with “require” options of ava, mocha, nodemon, nyc, qunit, tape, and webpack.

  :bulb: Builtin require cannot sideload .mjs files. However, .js files can be sideloaded or .mjs files may be loaded with dynamic import.
