Cypress Browserify Preprocessor

Cypress preprocessor for bundling JavaScript via browserify.

This is the default preprocessor that comes packaged with Cypress. You'd typically need to install this if you want to modify the default options we've configured.

Modifying the default options allows you to add support for things like:

TypeScript
Babel Plugins
ES Presets

Installation

Requires Node version 6.5.0 or above.

npm install --save-dev @cypress/browserify-preprocessor

Usage

In your project's plugins file:

const browserify = require('@cypress/browserify-preprocessor')

module.exports = (on) => {
  on('file:preprocessor', browserify())
}

Options

Pass in options as the second argument to browserify:

module.exports = (on) => {
  const options = {
    // options here
  }

  on('file:preprocessor', browserify(options))
}

browserifyOptions

Object of options passed to browserify.

// example
browserify({
  browserifyOptions: {
    extensions: ['.js', '.ts'],
    plugin: [
      ['tsify']
    ]
  }
})

If you pass one of the top-level options in (extensions, transform, etc), it will override the default. In the above example, browserify will process .js and .ts files, but not .jsx, .coffee, or .cjsx. If you wish to add to or modify existing options, read about modifying the default options.

watchify is automatically configured as a plugin (as needed), so it's not necessary to manually specify it.

Default:

{
  extensions: ['.js', '.jsx', '.coffee', '.cjsx'],
  transform: [
    [
      'cjsxify',
      {}
    ],
    [
      'babelify',
      {
        ast: false,
        babelrc: false,
        plugins: ['babel-plugin-add-module-exports'],
        presets: ['babel-preset-env', 'babel-preset-react']
      },
    ]
  ],
  plugin: [],
  cache: {},
  packageCache: {}
}

watchifyOptions

Object of options passed to watchify

// example
browserify({
  watchifyOptions: {
    delay: 500
  }
})

Default:

{
  ignoreWatch: [
    '**/.git/**',
    '**/.nyc_output/**',
    '**/.sass-cache/**',
    '**/bower_components/**',
    '**/coverage/**',
    '**/node_modules/**'
  ],
}

onBundle

A function that is called with the browserify bundle. This allows you to specify external files and plugins. See the browserify docs for methods available.

// example
browserify({
  onBundle (bundle) {
    bundle.external('react')
    bundle.plugin('some-plugin')
  }
})

Default: undefined

Modifying default options

The default options are provided as browserify.defaultOptions so they can be more easily modified.

If, for example, you want to update the options for the babelify transform to turn on babelrc loading, you could do the following:

const browserify = require('@cypress/browserify-preprocessor')

module.exports = (on) => {
  const options = browserify.defaultOptions
  options.transform[1][1].options.babelrc = true

  on('file:preprocessor', browserify(options))
}
