babel-runtime-amd

1.1.4 verified Sat Apr 25 auth: no javascript maintenance

AMD version of babel-runtime (v1.1.4, last updated 2016). Provides AMD modules of babel-runtime, core-js, regenerator-runtime, and babel-polyfill for use in AMD environments like RequireJS. Includes a pre-built bundle (bundle.min.js) for easy inclusion. Enables Babel's transform-runtime plugin in browser-based AMD setups. Low maintenance, no recent updates, intended for legacy projects.

Common errors

error Module name 'babel-runtime' has not been loaded yet for context: use require([]) ↓

cause Using synchronous require instead of AMD async require.

fix

Use require(['babel-runtime'], function(runtime) { ... }) instead of var runtime = require('babel-runtime');

error Error: Mismatched anonymous define() module: function (...) { ... } ↓

cause Multiple anonymous define calls, possibly from bundle and individual modules.

fix

Ensure you either use the pre-built bundle OR individual modules, not both. If using bundle, exclude other babel-runtime paths.

error ReferenceError: regeneratorRuntime is not defined ↓

cause regenerator-runtime not loaded before using generators/async.

fix

Require ['regenerator-runtime'] before using generator functions, or use the bundle that includes it.

Warnings

deprecated Package is based on outdated babel-runtime v6 and babel-plugin-transform-runtime. Modern Babel (v7+) uses @babel/runtime and @babel/plugin-transform-runtime. ↓

fix Use @babel/runtime and @babel/plugin-transform-runtime for current Babel versions.

gotcha The pre-built bundle.js is large (>1MB) and may not be tree-shaken. For optimal performance, prefer individual modules. ↓

fix Use the per-module approach with paths and exclude from bundle, or only include needed helpers.

gotcha Package has not been updated since 2016. No support for newer JavaScript features or Babel versions. ↓

fix Consider using alternative AMD-friendly runtime polyfills like core-js-bundle.

gotcha The bundle.min.js includes all helpers unconditionally; may conflict with other AMD modules if not properly excluded. ↓

fix Add excludeShallow configuration to opt out of bundling duplicate helpers.

Install

npm install babel-runtime-amd

yarn add babel-runtime-amd

pnpm add babel-runtime-amd

Imports

babel-runtime

wrong

var runtime = require('babel-runtime');

correct

require(['babel-runtime'], function(runtime) { ... })

AMD environment: use RequireJS async require, not CommonJS style.

core-js
wrong
```
import 'core-js'
```
correct
```
require(['core-js'], function(core) { ... })
```
AMD module: use require or define, not ES6 import.

regenerator-runtime

wrong

const regeneratorRuntime = require('regenerator-runtime');

correct

require(['regenerator-runtime'], function(generator) { ... })

AMD context: use array dependency in require.

babel-polyfill
wrong
```
import 'babel-polyfill'
```
correct
```
require(['babel-polyfill'])
```
No return value; side-effect only. Must be loaded before your code.

Quickstart

Configure RequireJS paths and import a specific babel-runtime helper AMD module.

// 1. Install: npm install babel-runtime-amd --save-dev
// 2. In your RequireJS config, add paths:
requirejs.config({
    paths: {
        'babel-runtime': 'node_modules/babel-runtime-amd/babel-runtime',
        'core-js': 'node_modules/babel-runtime-amd/core-js',
        'regenerator-runtime': 'node_modules/babel-runtime-amd/regenerator-runtime'
    }
});
// 3. Use in your module:
define(['babel-runtime/helpers/classCallCheck'], function(classCallCheck) {
    function MyClass() {
        classCallCheck(this, MyClass);
    }
    return MyClass;
});
