Disable eslint parsing error message

In my code I have a conditional export:

if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'testing')
  export myFunc;

In es6 this statement is not allowed because imports and exports should be top-level, but using babel with some plugins and webpack this condition is eliminated at build-time, so in my resulting code this export is either top-level or not present.

But eslint reports a parsing error and I want to get rid of it. /*eslint-disable */ doesn't work, because, well, it's not a rule violation, it's a parsing error. Is there a possible workaround?

P.S.: I know I can commonjs it, but I want to stick with es6.

Really, you aren't compliant with ES6 specification, so... you need to commonjs it.

The Idea behind a transpiler is that you'll can disable it when the next specification comes actual.

In this case, your code won't work in a full ES6 environment.

There is no workaround.

Using non-top level imports will not work with native ES6 implementations. Babel allows it because it transpiles to CommonJS require, but it is technically not allowed in ES6.
