A [JSDoc][jsdoc] plugin that transforms source files with [Babel][babel] before they are processed.
> JSDoc uses the Babylon JavaScript parser since version 3.5.0, which means that JSDoc can parse any JavaScript or JSX file that is supported by the Babel compiler. You may not need to use this plugin unless you need to preprocess unsupported syntax in your source code.
The jsdoc-babel plugin can be installed using NPM.
``bash`
npm install jsdoc-babel --save-dev
To use plugin you should include the plugin module in the plugins array of
JSDoc's configuration file.
`json`
{
"plugins": ["node_modules/jsdoc-babel"]
}
By default, the plugin only processes files that have a .js extension. You
could enable transformation for other file extensions by adding the following
settings to your JSDoc configuration file:
`json`
{
"plugins": ["node_modules/jsdoc-babel"],
"babel": {
"extensions": ["js", "es6", "jsx"]
}
}
If Babel can resolve a .babelrc file in your project, it will be parsed as the
transformer options.
Alternatively, you can define options
to be passed through Babel by adding them to your JSDoc configuration file:
`json`
{
"plugins": ["node_modules/jsdoc-babel"],
"babel": {
"presets": ["@babel/env"]
}
}
Note that options defined in the JSDoc configuration file will take precedence
over those defined in your .babelrc file.
If you would prefer to disable .babelrc file resolution, you can use thebabelrc option:
`json``
{
"plugins": ["node_modules/jsdoc-babel"],
"babel": {
"presets": ["@babel/env"],
"babelrc": false
}
}
