Hi, I would like to run some server side react.js components in Sling. I was experimenting with the esx engine [1] which works like a NodeJs loader and allows you to load any valid Node module. I am able to run the demo examples that come with that bundle. So, I installed react npm module and it’s dependencies under /libs/esx/node_modules. But when I try to load react based script in sling I get an exception at [2]. I see “process” properties declared in SlingBabel.js and when I debug I see that the transpile step works for my initial script (one sling:resourceType points to).
I know this esx engine is considered experimental according to JIRA ticket [3]. But I was still curious if anyone else has tried this or can help out. If I can successfully load react I would like to work on some tests suggested in JIRA and see if I can contribute to this module. Therefor I thought it appropriate to send this to dev list. I apologize in advance for spam if that’s not correct.
