Set custom exclude string for babel

See original GitHub issue

Laravel Mix Version: 1.6.1

Description:

My project does have npm dependencies like this: "phoenix": "file:../deps/phoenix". No matter what I set in the .babelrc as ignored folders, webpack seems to try to run babel on those dependencies, which results in the following error:

ERROR in ../deps/phoenix_html/priv/static/phoenix_html.js
Module build failed: ReferenceError: Unknown plugin "transform-object-rest-spread" specified in "base" at 0, attempted to resolve relative to "../deps/phoenix_html/priv/static"

Excluding the folder in the webpack-rules.js does solve the issue, but I’d rather edit that from within the webpack.mix.js.

Just in case this helps anyone else in the future, I had the same problem and could not solve it with a custom .babelrc file with ignored folders or files. The solution that worked for me was to set the resolve.symlinks config option to false in my project’s webpack.mix.js file, as shown below.

mix.webpackConfig({ resolve: { symlinks: false } })
