Babel 6 regeneratorRuntime is not defined

Question

I\'m trying to use async, await from scratch on Babel 6, but I\'m getting regeneratorRuntime is not defined.

.babelrc file

{
    \"presets\": [ \"es2         


        

Answer 1

Most of these answers recommend solutions for dealing with this error using WebPack. But in case anyone is using RollUp (like I am), here is what finally worked for me (just a heads-up and bundling this polyfill ads about 10k tot he output size):

.babelrc

{
    "presets": [
        [
            "env",
            {
                "modules": false,
                "targets": {
                    "browsers": ["last 2 versions"]
                }
            }
        ]
    ],
    "plugins": ["external-helpers",
        [
            "transform-runtime",
            {
                "polyfill": false,
                "regenerator": true
            }
        ]]
}

rollup.config.js

import resolve from 'rollup-plugin-node-resolve';
import babel from 'rollup-plugin-babel';
import uglify from 'rollup-plugin-uglify';
import commonjs from 'rollup-plugin-commonjs';


export default {
    input: 'src/entry.js',
    output: {
        file: 'dist/bundle.js',
        format: 'umd',
        name: 'MyCoolLib',
        exports: 'named'
    },
    sourcemap: true,
    plugins: [
        commonjs({
            // polyfill async/await
            'node_modules/babel-runtime/helpers/asyncToGenerator.js': ['default']
        }),
        resolve(),
        babel({
            runtimeHelpers: true,
            exclude: 'node_modules/**', // only transpile our source code
        }),
        uglify()

    ]
};
