boi-transpiler

0.0.15 verified Fri May 01 auth: no javascript deprecated

Transpile boi configuration files into webpack configuration and dependencies. Current version 0.0.15 (pre-release). No clear release cadence; appears to be a companion tool for the boi build system. Differentiator: acts as a bridge between boi's own config format and webpack, enabling webpack-based builds without direct webpack configuration.

Quickstart

Shows how to transpile a boi configuration object into a webpack configuration object.

import { transpile } from 'boi-transpiler';

const boiConfig = {
  entry: './src/index.js',
  output: {
    path: './dist',
    filename: 'bundle.js'
  },
  module: {
    loaders: [
      { test: /\.js$/, loader: 'babel-loader' }
    ]
  }
};

const webpackConfig = transpile(boiConfig);
console.log(webpackConfig);
