Browserify a mix of coffeescript and livescript files

Question

I have a main coffee file and a mix of other coffee and livescript files.

# main.coffee
require 'LiveScript'
one = require './one.coffee'
two = require './two.ls'
console.log one.fun(), two.fun()

# one.coffee
module.exports.fun = -> 1

# two.ls
module.exports.fun = -> 2

I can run

coffee main.coffee

But trying to run

browserify -t coffeeify main.coffee

Gives an error:

module.exports.fun = -> 2
                      ^
ParseError: Unexpected token >

The only workaround I see is to compile ls files to js first. Is there a simpler, direct way to mix ls and coffee files?

require 'LiveScript' is only sufficient for Node.js. Browserify does not support require.extensions, and is trying to parse the LiveScript as JavaScript.

You need a transform for LiveScript as well, for example Liveify.

You might try Webpack. With proper loaders, e.g. livescript-loader, coffee-loader and others, you can compose your program with different js flavors.
