# @babel/plugin-proposal-decorators
> Compile class and object decorators to ES5
## Example
(examples are from proposal)
### Simple class decorator
```js
@annotation
class MyClass { }
function annotation(target) {
target.annotated = true;
}
```
### Class decorator
```js
@isTestable(true)
class MyClass { }
function isTestable(value) {
return function decorator(target) {
target.isTestable = value;
}
}
```
### Class function decorator
```js
class C {
@enumerable(false)
method() { }
}
function enumerable(value) {
return function (target, key, descriptor) {
descriptor.enumerable = value;
return descriptor;
}
}
```
## Installation
```sh
npm install --save-dev @babel/plugin-proposal-decorators
```
## Usage
Add the following line to your .babelrc file:
```json
{
"plugins": ["@babel/plugin-proposal-decorators"]
}
```
### Via CLI
```sh
babel --plugins @babel/plugin-proposal-decorators script.js
```
### Via Node API
```javascript
require("@babel/core").transform("code", {
plugins: ["@babel/plugin-proposal-decorators"]
});
```
## Options
### `decoratorsBeforeExport`
`boolean`, defaults to `true`.
```js
// decoratorsBeforeExport: true
@decorator
export class Foo {}
// decoratorsBeforeExport: false
export @decorator class Bar {}
```
This option was added to help tc39 collect feedback from the community by allowing experimentation with both possible syntaxes.
For more information, check out: [tc39/proposal-decorators#69](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-decorators/issues/69).
### `legacy`
`boolean`, defaults to `false`.
Use the legacy (stage 1) decorators syntax and behavior.
#### NOTE: Compatibility with `@babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties`
If you are including your plugins manually and using `@babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties`, make sure that `@babel/plugin-proposal-decorators` comes *before* `@babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties`.
When using the `legacy: true` mode, `@babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties` must be used in `loose` mode to support the `@babel/plugin-proposal-decorators`.
Wrong:
```json
{
"plugins": [
"@babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties",
"@babel/plugin-proposal-decorators"
]
}
```
Right:
```json
{
"plugins": [
"@babel/plugin-proposal-decorators",
"@babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties"
]
}
```
```json
{
"plugins": [
["@babel/plugin-proposal-decorators", { "legacy": true }],
["@babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties", { "loose" : true }]
]
}
```
