Apostrophe fails to run in IE 11 support mode.

Open Miselrkba opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

I want to run Apostrophe in IE11 support mode. I followed the documentation in https://v3.docs.apostrophecms.org/guide/front-end-assets.html#supporting-internet-explorer-11 and added es5: true in asset/index.js

// modules/@apostrophecms/asset/index.js module.exports = { options: { es5: true } }; Apos fails to run with an error Select an appropriate 'target' to allow selecting one by default, or specify the 'output.chunkFormat' directly.

Thanks for the report. I'll log this for follow up. I'm getting the same thing.

Deja vu, we definitely fixed this once already! Obviously it's back. I suggest that this ticket not be closed until we have a unit test that covers asset builds with this flag on.

Unfortunately we haven't had a chance to look at this in a while. Since our customers, including large companies, have not expressed any interest in A3 IE11 builds and Microsoft is officially deleting IE11 from the remaining computers that run it in June and has already ended support in their own web application suite, it isn't very likely we'll get to it soon.

So this would be a good opportunity for a community contribution, or for sponsorship of the work. If you are interested in the latter please reach out to [email protected] and I can connect you with the appropriate person.

This was fixed some time ago and moved to a separate support module after Microsoft officially ended all support for IE11. Closing. See the changelog if you need more info about how to support IE11 (but you shouldn't, it's not receiving any security updates, better to tell your customer you can't accept the liability of encouraging them to use it)
