es6-computed-properties

Compiles JavaScript written using ES6 computed properties to use ES5- or ES3-compatible syntax. For example, this:

var propName = 'code';
 
var params = {
    [propName]: true
    ['data' + propName.toUpperCase()]: true
};
 
console.log(params); // {code: true, dataCode: true}

compiles to this:

ES5 targeting (default):

var $__Object$defineProperty = Object.defineProperty;
var $__0;
 
var propName = 'code';
 
var params = ($__0 = {}, $__Object$defineProperty($__0, propName, {
  value: true,
  enumerable: true,
  configurable: true,
  writable: true
}), $__Object$defineProperty($__0, 'data' + propName.toUpperCase(), {
  value: true,
  enumerable: true,
  configurable: true,
  writable: true
}), $__0);
 
console.log(params); // {code: true, dataCode: true}

If you're using ES5 with accessors (getters/setters) you should compile in ES5 mode, since it correctly handles inherited accessor properties.

In case if you need to support older engines, you may compile to ES3 (runs with {es: 3} compile option, or --es=3 from CLI):

var $__0;
 
var propName = 'code';
var params = (
  $__0 = {},
  $__0[propName] = true,
  $__0['data' + propName.toUpperCase()] = true,
  $__0
);
 
console.log(params); // {code: true, dataCode: true}
