How to handle 'code generator has deoptimised styling' message from gulp-babel

Question

I\'ve just employed gulp-babel to my gulp file with the following

var babel = require(\'gulp-babel\');

return gulp.src(files.concat.js.myModule)
           


        

Answer 1

Turns out the compact option is set to auto by default which removes "superfluous whitespace characters and line terminators [...] on input sizes >100KB".

If this is not what you want, you can set the compact option to false...

.pipe(babel({compact: false}))
