The original http source implementation needed to dynamically import the transformer function because source options must be serialisable as they are eventually passed to a source worker thread.
When the
createHttpSource
function was recently introduced we sort of made the transformer optional and that responses would be transformed later. This was probably the wrong approach for the following reasons:createHttpSource
function to return raw responses that are transformed into pages later we break this contract.This change makes the
transformer
required again but you can pass it directly to thecreateHttpSource
function.
