Magic in the emitter callback? #694
Description
Expected behavior
choo should accept valid JS code in the emitter callback.
Actual behavior
choo throws
"Unexpected token: punc ()) while parsing file: /app/index.js"
when an ES6 arrow function is used the emitter callback.
Steps to reproduce behavior
This is working code (adapted from the intro tutorial, running on glitch)
const choo = require('choo');
const html = require('choo/html');
const main = require('./templates/main.js');
const app = choo();
app.use(function (state, emitter) {
state.animals = [
{ type: 'lion', x: 200, y: 100 },
{ type: 'crocodile', x: 50, y: 300 }
];
emitter.on('addAnimal', function () {
const obj = { type: 'lion', x: 100, y: 200 };
state.animals.push(obj);
emitter.emit('render');
});
});
app.route('/', main);
app.mount('div');
When I replace function ()with () =>
emitter.on('addAnimal', () => {
const obj = { type: 'lion', x: 100, y: 200 };
state.animals.push(obj);
emitter.emit('render');
});
choo throws the above error. Some kind of magic going on?
