Babel 6 react JSX transformer - disable strict

Question

Issue

I\'m using babel 6 for react JSX transforms. However I\'m not using the react preset, I am ONLY using the \'transform-react-jsx\' plugin (and trying strict-m

Answer 1

transform-strict-mode is used only to include the strict mode not to disable it. So setting it to false ["transform-strict-mode", {"strict": false}] will change nothing, in your case better remove this plug-in then including it. But if somewhere else you are using a plugin or preset that includes the strict mode, try maybe to use es2015-loose :

1. install

   npm install --save-dev babel-preset-es2015-loose babel-preset-es2015

2. config

   {"presets": ["es2015-loose"]}

Answer 2

According to this line, the strictMode option is indeed parsed.

I don't understand the syntax you used for your .babelrc, though. Why an array?

Try this:

{
  "plugins": [
    ["transform-react-jsx"]
  ],
  "sourceMaps": true,
  "strictMode": false
}
