I am using rollup to bundle my Node.js applications - it allows me to deploy them in production as a single file without relying on npm.
I also happen to have my own custom loaders for some special format files that I import in my code by calling
node --experimental-loader=./lib/txt-colormap-es-loader.mjs and then doing
import colormap from './colormaps/01.txt';
One of these is handlebars for which there is a special plugin in rollup.
But I also have my own custom formats with my own custom loaders.
Does anyone see any way I could make rollup work with my custom ES6 loader in Node.js short of writing a new plugin?
I found a suboptimal solution without developing/publishing/maintaining a new rollup plugin - import the loader itself and call it manually on the file imported as a string. Importing as a string can be accomplished
