Worker loader!

[natew]

Just added this to our stack: https://github.com/developit/workerize-loader/issues

Which worked very nicely. Though I'd have liked some more typescript.

Is something like this doable in pundle?

It is doable yes. Pundle doesn't support the ./something!worker syntax so Pundle users (or Parcel users if Parcel ever decides to support this) will have to use file paths like something.worker.js to distinguish between normal and worker files.

But that has the false positive aspect where normal files that are already published and written under that schema may break. Supporting this requires research into different ways before choosing one

I think I’d prefer some light config for the filename pattern. Really plugins are fine for this case. Because you should be able to make the api mostly transparent as opposed to workerize which forced a weird constructor pattern in between.
