I can't resolve plugin paths in babel 6

[dschissler]

I'm not sure if this is a babel or babel-loader issue. I can't resolve the plugin paths or preset paths. This is my project structure:

• app
  • webpack
    • entries
    • commons
    • modules
• dev
  • gulpfile.js
  • node_modules
  • bower_components
  • vendor

    loaders: [{
      test: /\.js?$/,
      loader: 'babel',
      exclude: /(node_modules|bower_components)/,
      query: {
        cacheDirectory: '/tmp',
        // plugins: ['transform-runtime'],
        presets: ['es2015', 'stage-0']
        // presets: [
        //   require('babel-preset-es2015'),
        //   require('babel-preset-stage-0')
        // ]
      }
    }, {

Can you set up a standalone project to try out? Just tried a similar configuration without any hickups.

My proprietary project is based on my open source Webird system. I won't be able to play with that for a few weeks.

Here are some highlights from the webpack config. Notice that its using mostly absolute paths.

    context: webpackRoot,
    resolve: {
         root: [appModulesRoot, bowerRoot, nodeModulesRoot, themeRoot],
         modulesDirectories: [appModulesRoot, 'node_modules', 'bower_components'],
         ...
    },
    resolveLoader: {
        root: nodeModulesRoot
    },

@dschissler I think #166 might be related to this. If you look that up, you can see a suggested hack (require.resolve each preset).

[dschissler]

@bebraw thanks. I'm trying it again now.

[bebraw]

@dschissler Ok. If you think this is duplicate of #166, feel free to close.

[dschissler]

It does appear to be a duplicate but now I'm working through some other issues. I'll probably close this once I figure it out.

@bebraw Now I'm having issues with the Bluebird Promise polyfill:

'use strict';
// import bluebird from 'bluebird';
import 'whatwg-fetch';

// Setup Bluebird Promise polyfill for Babel
if (!window.Promise) {
//  require('babel-runtime/core-js/promise').default = require('bluebird');
  require('babel-runtime/core-js/promise').default = require.resolve('bluebird');
}

I'm finally running JS on my front end though so safe to say its a dupe. Thanks.

[bebraw]

@dschissler Ok. Maybe someone in the Bluebird project has some idea about that. Hard to say what's wrong with that. No doubt something changed with Babel 6. 😄

[dschissler]

@bebraw It is also breaking the gettext translation that I need for my nunjucks template. If I remove bluebird polyfill setup and the calls like {{ t('message') }} in my templates then it all works. That is pretty good. I suspect that they are related so I'll see if I can solve it.
