babel

A transpiler which converts code from JavaScript ES6/ES7 syntax to ES5 syntax.

• Transpile a specified input file and output to stdout:

babel {path/to/file}

• Transpile a specified input file and output to a specific file:

babel {path/to/input_file} --out-file {path/to/output_file}

• Transpile the input file every time it is changed:

babel {path/to/input_file} --watch

• Transpile a whole directory of files:

babel {path/to/input_directory}

• Ignore specified comma-separated files in a directory:

babel {path/to/input_directory} --ignore {ignored_files}

• Transpile and output as minified JavaScript:

babel {path/to/input_file} --minified

• Choose a set of presets for output formatting:

babel {path/to/input_file} --presets {presets}

• Output all available options:

babel --help
