Get Access To The Class Static Properties Using Babeljs 6

Below is the minimal app which demonstrate the issue: 'use strict'; var _ = require('underscore'); class Model { constructor(value) { this._value = value; }

Solution 1:

The solution was following:

1. Stick to the new.target as suggested by @sjrd and @loganfsmyth:

   classObjectModelextendsModel
   {
       static properties = {};
   
       constructor(value) {
           super(_.extend({}, new.target.properties, _.pick(value, _.keys(new.target.properties))));
       }
   }
   

2. Create a transpiler which converts all of new.target (ES6) into this.constructor (ES5):

   functiontranspileNewTarget()
   {
       return {
           visitor: {
               MetaProperty(path) {
                   if (path.isMetaProperty() && path.node.meta.name == 'new' && path.node.property.name == 'target') {
                       path.replaceWithSourceString('this.constructor');
                   }
               }
           }
       };
   }
