Is there support for using with `System.import()` (or alternative?)

[danhayden]

I am using System.import() in my React project for lazy loading components and data to reduce initial bundle size.

["module-resolver", {"alias": { "data": "./src/data/"}}]

Sample code

System.import('data/faqs')
  .then(response => response.default)
  .then(faqs => this.setState({faqs}))

Error

ERROR in ./src/scripts/app/pages/FAQ.js
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'data/faqs' in '<truncated-path>/src/scripts/app/pages'
 @ ./src/scripts/app/pages/FAQ.js 42:6-39
 @ ./src/scripts/bundles/app.js
 @ multi app

Regular imports (import faqs from 'data/faqs') are working as expected, but not when using System.import()

If System.import() is not supported is there an alternative I can use?
For now I am just creating aliases within webpack config for the affected imports like below

resolve: {
  alias: {
    data: path.join(__dirname, 'src/data/')
  }
}

Would be nice if babel could handle all the aliases if possible :)

Yes, as this time, the System.import syntax is not supported. But it would be great to add support for it. I'm adding this to the list of improvement.

It's a functionality similar to #97
