craco-use-babelrc

A craco plugin that enables .babelrc in create-react-app 2.

Why?

You might think you could just do this to enable .babelrc support;

// craco.config.js

module.exports = {
  babel: {
    loaderOptions: {
      babelrc: true,
    },
  },
};

However this actually still leaves the react-app babel preset enabled! If you're fine with this then you don't need this plugin and can just enable .babelrc using the configuration above.

This plugin also clears the preset list for the loader.

Installation

Make sure you have craco installed before continuing. You can find the official installation instructions here.

You can then install craco-use-babelrc using your package manager of choice;

npm install --save @jackwilsdon/craco-use-babelrc

yarn add @jackwilsdon/craco-use-babelrc

Usage

Simply enable the plugin in your craco.config.js, there's nothing to configure!

// craco.config.js
const BabelRcPlugin = require('@jackwilsdon/craco-use-babelrc');

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    { plugin: BabelRcPlugin },
  ],
};
