FBA Loader

This is our Babel loader used for binary asset imports (images and fonts).

These assets are subsequently either:

1. Declared in the index, see wp-plugin-index

- copied to 3-traffic for distribution
- preloaded prior to build execution, see ad-entry

2. Compiled into a single binary payload, see fba-compile

- fba-payload.png output to 3-traffic for distribution
- preloaded & parsed prior to build execution, ad-entry

Base64 - Deprecated

There is functionality here that could also inline the binary assets in the build bundle as base-64. We have disabled it for now, because the binary options are 25% fewer bytes.

...

Loading a binary asset will export a key to access its corresponding asset within an FBA payload (i.e. the filename without the extension):

``js
import imgFile from './img.jpg'
// imgFile === 'img'
`

You can also choose to inline certain assets by falling back on the url-loader. If you're inlining an asset, options you pass to this loader will apply to the url-loader. To inline, add the query string ?inline=true to the end of the file import:

`js
import jif from './jif.gif'
// jif === Base64 contents of jif.gif as a data URL
``
