This plugin provides an API polyfill to allow ember addon and app authors to adopt the
Packages API
whilst still maintaining backwards compatibility with older versions of EmberData
that do not support this API.
The intention of this Babel Plugin is to also allow for a transition period and allow
applications to exist in a mixed state whilst transitioning from the old imports to the
new imports.
It also allows addons that only need to use a small amount of EmberData to do so while
still supporting applications using all of EmberData.
Using the @ember-data/rfc395-data
package, that contains the official mapping of old imports to new package imports, addons
that adopt the new package imports can be transpiled back to the legacy format if
ember-cli-babel detects that the host application ember version does not support the
new modules API.
The plugin supports both default import Model from "@ember-data/model" and namedimport { attr } from "@ember-data/model" import statements, converting their syntax backconst
to separate variables within the source file. This transpilation is done at ember-cli-babel
compile time by EmberCLI using .
In order for ember addon developers to adopt this new API syntax, they must declare a
dependency on ember-cli-babel:v7.14.0 or above in their package.json:
`json``
{
"dependencies": {
"ember-cli-babel": "^7.14.0"
}
}
