使用babel为生产服务器设置节点应用程序

Question

I'm trying to get my first ever node app ready for a production server.

build and serve scripts I'm basing on that given by babel

"scripts": {
    "start": "nodemon --exec babel-node server.js --ignore public/",
    "build": "babel server.js -o server_compiled.js",
    "serve": "node server_compiled.js",
    "dev": "webpack -wd"

}

npm run build

works as expected

npm run serve

results in an error:

some/path/config.js:3

export default{
^^^^^^
SyntaxError: Unexpected token export

This is from a config file that I'm referencing in server.js for port host and db.

Do I build this file also or what have I done wrong?

Any help appreciated.

Answer 1

So, I eventually figured out I had to compile all of the .js files in the app individually. I'm sure there must be automated way to do this but thought I'd leave the solution in case anyone can't find anything else.
