Firefox Addon SDK: Babel support
Question
I'm trying to use React as part of a firefox addon I'm working on. React works fine as long as I don't use jsx. Babel isn't working - because I can't specify the type of the script I add.
I'm doing:
tabs.open({
url: 'index.html',
onReady: function( tab ){
var worker = tab.attach({
contentScriptFile: [
'./jquery-2.1.4.min.js',
'../node_modules/react/dist/react.js',
'../node_modules/react-dom/dist/react-dom.js',
'../node_modules/babel-preset-react/index.js',
'./js/main.js', // the file i need to specify as type: text/babel
],
});
}
);
Ideally I'd be able to set a type property on the './js/main.js' script, but the docs don't appear to have anything.

The trick is to load react, jquery, babel and your jsx directly in your html, as you usually do. The javascripts files that you'll have to load using the contentScriptFile param are those one that you need to load the logic to communicate with the addon main js file.
An example for a valid html will be:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<title>Hello React!</title>
<script src="react-with-addons.js"></script>
<script src="react-dom.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/babel-core/5.8.23/browser.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello!</h1>
<div id="example"></div>
<script type="text/babel">
ReactDOM.render(
<p>Hello, world!</p>,
document.getElementById('example')
);
</script>
</body>
</html>
If you tell me what you need to do in that html/content script I can give you an example of how you can do to communicate it with the main script.
