Sucrase moves only JS files

Question

Im using the lib sucrase to use ES6 modules in NodeJS(import/export) and i'm using the follow command to generate a build of my project in commonJ: sucrase ./src -d ./build --transforms imports where ./src is my project folder and ./build is the output. When the process is finished i have a build folder with my javascripts files converted to commonJS but the assets files and every no-JS files are moved to this build folder, like images and css files in public directory or PUG files in views, only the JS files and directories are moved. I dont know if is possible do this with sucrase cause i've already read the doc, but maybe its possible do with another lib(sucrase with other lib).

My project structure(src)

│   app.js
│
├───public
│   │
│   ├───images
│   │      some-image.png
│   │
│   ├───javascripts
│   │      script.js
│   │
│   └───stylesheets
│          styles.min.css
│
├───routes
│       index.js
│
└───views
    │   index.pug
    │   layout.pug
    │
    └───parts
            footer.pug
            header.pug

My project structure after converted(build)

│   app.js
│
├───public
│   │
│   ├───images
│   │
│   ├───javascripts
│   │      script.js
│   │
│   └───stylesheets
│
├───routes
│       index.js

└───views

I read sucrase document and found that ONLY support load JS files (JSX, TS, etc). If you want to load another kind of files, use file-loader.

Sucrase also offers a package called @sucrase/webpack-loader. You can give it a try, but I'm not sure it supports to load images, non-JS files and so on.

Last but not least, sucrase documentation is not great, and I highly recommend not using it because you will have trouble with it community like this. Use Webpack, Babel or parcel instead if you want to deep dive into bundler. For modern approach for example with ReactJS, I higly recommend using gatsby to forget all things about bundler, you totally can move your react app into gatsby easily.

Maybe this might not help you resolve problem, but I hope I can give you a picture on your problem. Sharing is more important thing. Good luck!
