Yarn Workspaces and Browserify - package.json in subfolder breaks the build

问题

My ultimate goal is to use Yarn Workspaces in a project using Browserify and Babel 7. This is a minimal reproduction of a problem I'm having. Basically it seems that the presence of a package.json file in a subfolder (which is one of the things that you have when using Yarn Workspaces) breaks my Browserify build, and I can't figure out why.

Here's a GitHub repo with a minimal reproduction of the problem.

First, install the dependencies (you can use yarn or npm, doesn't matter):

$ npm install

Then confirm the Browserify+Babel build works:

$ npm run build

> browserify-babelify-yarn-workspaces@1.0.0 build /home/user/projects/browserify-babelify-yarn-workspaces
> browserify a/index.js -t babelify --outfile bundle.js

Yay, all is good! My compiled code is in bundle.js.

Now let's make a dummy package.json within the a folder:

$ echo "{}" > a/package.json

That shouldn't change the build, right? Wrong:

$ npm run build

> browserify-babelify-yarn-workspaces@1.0.0 build /home/user/projects/browserify-babelify-yarn-workspaces
> browserify a/index.js -t babelify --outfile bundle.js


/home/user/projects/browserify-babelify-yarn-workspaces/a/index.js:1
import lib from "./lib.js";
^

I can't figure out why this is happening. Any help would be appreciated!

回答1:

I think my problem is actually described in the Babel docs. https://babeljs.io/docs/en/config-files#monorepos says that the solution is to use a babel.config.js file rather than a .babelrc file. Deleting .babelrc and putting this in babel.config.js does seem to work:

module.exports = function (api) {
  api.cache(true);

  const presets = ["@babel/preset-env"];
  const plugins = [];

  return {
    presets,
    plugins
  };
}

回答2:

This method will prevent the loading of your babelrc file, because your file is not in the root package. You can simply change your npm script to use following :

"scripts": {
    "build": "browserify a/index.js -t [babelify --presets [@babel/preset-env] ] --outfile bundle.js"
  }
