Unexpected token when using import type

Question

I ejected from create-react-app and I am having problems using import type when I run the test site (using yarn start). Module parse failed: /project/src/web/MarkdownField.js Unexpected token (6:12) You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type.

When I use yarn flow, the process completes without errors.

.babelrc

{
 "presets": ["flow", "es2015", "react", "stage-2"]
}

.flowconfig

[libs]
./flow-typed

[options]
esproposal.class_static_fields=enable
esproposal.class_instance_fields=enable

[include]
./src/**

mdTypes.types.js

// @flow

import { propTypes } from 'redux-form';

export type FieldType = {
field: propTypes.fieldPropTypes
};

MarkdownField.js

// @flow
import React from 'react';
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';
import MDE from 'medium-editor';
import MeMarkdown from 'medium-editor-markdown';
import type { FieldType } from '../mdTypes.types';

class MarkdownField extends React.PureComponent<void, FieldType> {

Try to import without type keyword. Will it work? – Selfknowledge

We have a similar setup and had the same error. You may need to add e plugin for the eslint check in .eslintrc like this:

{
  "extends": ["plugin:flowtype/recommended"],
  "plugins": [
    "flowtype"
  ]
}
