create-react-app: You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type

[wiradikusuma]

I use https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app and it comes with ES6 and Babel, but I can't make this component to work:

./node_modules/react-medium-editor-es6/src/editor.js
Module parse failed: /Users/wiradikusuma/Documents/.../client/node_modules/react-medium-editor-es6/src/editor.js Unexpected token (14:21)
You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type.

| export default class MediumEditor extends Component {
|     static propTypes = {
|         tag: PropTypes.string,
|         text: PropTypes.string,

I'm missing something?

Hello @wiradikusuma,

As mentioned in the installation step, you need to include this module in babel-loader's configuration so it can get transpiled with rest of the ES6 code. Evidently, create-react-app won't let you do that .

Perhaps you should use the original component (the one this package is forked from).
