Migrating an Angular Project to Use Liferay npm Bundler 2.x

Follow these steps to migrate your Angular project to use liferay-npm-bundler 2.x. While liferay-npm-bundler 1.x relied on Babel to perform some transformation steps, these transformations are now automatically applied in version 2.x. Therefore, you should remove Babel from your project:

  1. Update the liferay-npm-bundler dependency in your package.json to version 2.x:

    {
      "devDependencies": {
        ...
        "liferay-npm-bundler": "^2.0.0",
        ...
      },
      ...
    }
    
  2. Remove all liferay-npm-bundler-preset-* dependencies from your package.json because liferay-npm-bundler 2.x includes these by default.

  3. Remove any bundler presets you configured in your .npmbundlerrc file. liferay-npm-bundler 2.x includes one smart preset that handles all frameworks automatically.

  4. Open your tsconfig.json file and replace the "module": "amd" compiler option with the configuration shown below to produce CommonJS modules:

    {
      "compilerOptions": {
        ...
        "module": "commonjs",
        ...
      }
    }
    
  5. Delete the .babelrc file to remove the Babel configuration.

  6. Remove Babel from your package.json build process so it matches the configuration below:

    {
      "scripts": {
        "build": "tsc && liferay-npm-bundler"
      },
      ...
    }
    
  7. Remove the following Babel dependencies from your package.json devDependencies:

    "babel-cli": "6.26.0",
    "babel-preset-liferay-amd": "1.2.2"
    

Great! Your project is migrated to use liferay-npm-bundler 2.x.
