System.import() is ignored

[vadirn]

Beta of webpack 2 supports System.import() to load modules on demand. Files imported this way are ignored when generating documentation.

Are there any workarounds for this issue? documentation build ./src/* doesn't help

Thanks for the report! Helpful to get the changing lay of the land from webpack world :)

In terms of workarounds: documentation build ./src/* - documentation.js uses your terminal's globbing pattern, so unless all of your files are directly in src, that won't include all of them. documentation build ./src/**.js should work.

In terms of supporting this in documentation.js (and I'll keep this ticket issue to track that task), we'll need module-deps to be able to detect and follow these references.

https://github.com/thgreasi/babel-plugin-system-import-transformer does the trick. Given that webpack documents System.import, I'm thinking people will use the API. But it's one of many import/require variations going around (kids these days! get off my lawn), so if it fades from popularity, I reserve the right to remove support :)

Thanks @thgreasi for implementing babel-plugin-system-import-transformer, works like a charm!

@tmcw I'm glad that it proved useful for you :)
