slush-node-esnext

Slush generator for creating node es next (ES6, ES7) projects, uses traceur.

Getting Started

Installation

Install slush-node-esnext globally:

$ npm i -g slush-node-esnext

Remember to install slush globally as well, if you haven't already:

$ npm i -g slush

Usage

Create a new folder for your node esnext package. Then cd into it.

$ mkdir node-esnext-package && cd node-esnext-package

Initiate the generator:

$ slush node-esnext

Tasks

bin

$ slush node-esnext:bin

Will add a bin key to your package.json and a bin cli script which allows your package to run as a global command in your shell.

Commands

Within your package the generator provides the following commands.

• npm run build - Compiles ES6+ modules inside src directory to ES5 CommonJS modules.
• npm run start - Execute your package. Only works if your package runs from the command line.
• npm run watch - Watches src directory and rebuilds on changes.

Conventions

The generator expects a few conventions. They are easy to change if they are not suitable.

• source code for your npm package is in the src directory.
• compiled ES6+ code is outputed to the out directory.
• the package main module is located at src\index.js.
