babel-plugin-relay and relay-compiler are not compatible with ES6 modules

[bahador]

The output of using babel-plugin-relay uses require, and the output of relay-compiler uses module.exports.

I'd like to request that there be an option to use ES6 import statements instead of require and that relay-compiler output ES6 modules.

TIA.

Is there a workaround for this? I'm using rollup to bundle my package and babel-plugin-relay breaks the bundle as it adds require-calls to the code.

@TrySound Thanks, but I'm already using this rollup plugin after the rollup babel plugin and it's not replacing the require-calls.

[bahador]

@SpaceHeroGuide is correct. This is not an issue that rollup-plugin-commonjs can solve. One solution would be to have a flag to output ES6 modules instead of using require and module.exports. I looked into fixing this myself and submitting a PR, but this isn't my area of expertise.

[TrySound]

Could you provide reproducing repo where commonjs plugin doesn't work?

My language plugin PR also happens to fix (part of) this situation, but the overall scope of that PR is a bit larger #2293

Specifically what it does is look for a default export. The exports from the artifacts, though, are left up to the specific language plugin to define, which in the case of JS/Flow would remain the same as currently the case is.

This seems related to #2706 which is also as yet unresolved. Has the community found a sustainable solution to this yet? I'm using rollupjs and ran into this yesterday as well

Yes, enable eagerESModules option in relay config.
