babel-plugin-transform-class-inject-directive

This is a utility for projects that relay heavily on classes and dependency injection. If a class constructor uses an 'inject' directive, the list of parameter names will be copied as strings and placed on an inject static property, so your DI tool can read them.

Example

In

class MyService {
  constructor(depOne, depTwo) {
    'inject';
    ...
  }
}

Out

class MyService {
  constructor(depOne, depTwo) {
    'inject';
    ...
  }
}

MyService.inject = ['depOne', 'depTwo']

Usage

Via .babelrc (Recommended)

.babelrc

{
  "plugins": ["transform-class-inject-directive"]
}

Via CLI

babel --plugins transform-class-inject-directive script.js

Via Node API

require('@babel/core').transform('code', {
  plugins: ['transform-class-inject-directive'],
});

Options

directive

string, defaults to inject.

Tells the plugin which is the name of the directive it should find in order to apply the transformation.

property

string, defaults to inject.

This is the name of the property the plugin will create in order to define the list of dependencies.

Warning

This only works on classes and regular functions (no arrow). The idea was for it to only work on classes, and the only reason it also works with functions is in order to add support in case you are transforming classes.

Development

NPM/Yarn Tasks

Task	Description
test	Run the project unit tests.
run lint	Lint the modified files.
run lint:all	Lint the project code.
run docs	Generate the project documentation.
run todo	List all the pending to-do's.

Repository hooks

I use husky to automatically install the repository hooks so the code will be tested and linted before any commit, and the dependencies updated after every merge.

Commits convention

I use conventional commits with commitlint in order to support semantic releases. The one that sets it up is actually husky, that installs a script that runs commitlint on the git commit command.

The configuration is on the commitlint property of the package.json.

Releases

I use semantic-release and a GitHub action to automatically release on NPM everything that gets merged to main.

The configuration for semantic-release is on ./releaserc and the workflow for the release is on ./.github/workflow/release.yml.

Testing

I use Jest to test the project.

The configuration file is on ./.jestrc.js, the tests are on ./tests and the script that runs it is on ./utils/scripts/test.

Linting && Formatting

I use ESlint with my own custom configuration to validate all the JS code. The configuration file for the project code is on ./.eslintrc and the one for the tests is on ./tests/.eslintrc. There's also an ./.eslintignore to exclude some files on the process. The script that runs it is on ./utils/scripts/lint-all.

For formatting I use Prettier with my custom configuration. The configuration file for the project code is on ./.prettierrc.

Documentation

I use JSDoc to generate an HTML documentation site for the project.

The configuration file is on ./.jsdoc.js and the script that runs it is on ./utils/scripts/docs.

To-Dos

I use @todo comments to write all the pending improvements and fixes, and Leasot to generate a report. The script that runs it is on ./utils/scripts/todo.
