Write ReasonML and Bucklescript in your existing babel projects
npm install babel-plugin-bucklescriptFunctional programming is cool. ReasonML is cool. Bucklescript is cool. But you may not have the opportunity to start a new project or rewrite an existing one in those languages. In that case, babel-plugin-bucklescript is here for you!
babel-plugin-bucklescript lets you easily add ReasonML or Bucklescript projects to your existing codebases via a babel plugin. It relies on existing tools like bs-platform to work. And since bs-platform is amazingly fast, so is this plugin. It works for node-style require calls as well as ES2015 import statements.
To get started, add babel-plugin-bucklescript and bs-platform to your project's dev dependencies.
``shwith good ol' npm
npm install -D babel-plugin-bucklescript bs-platform
After that's finished, add the plugin to your babel dependencies. By default, this plugin will assume you're using the
package spec. For more information, see the bucklescript manual on using bsb.`json
{
"plugins": ["babel-plugin-bucklescript"]
}
`If, however, you want to compile to
or es6, you can pass that in as an option.`json
{
"plugins": [
["babel-plugin-bucklescript", { "module": "es6" }]
]
}
`Finally, you'll want to add a
file in the root of your project. Note that by default, bsb will compile to a folder called lib in the root of your project, no matter where your source code is. Take that into account when building your project. As of right now, this plugin only supports that compilation directory.`json

`Basic example

// In a file called index.js
const { add } = require("./test.re");console.log(add(1, 2)) // -> 3
