Will babel-loader pass transformed code to the next loader in the chain?

I am using babel-loader and I have a custom loader, my custom loader input source is getting original source and not the transformed source returned from babel-loader. I have read the docs and I understand the order of execution for loaders.

A webpack loader is basically a function that takes some source code in input, transforms it, and returns some new source code as output. What webpack does with that code then I don't know, but I assume it just passes it to the next loader.

I recommend setting a breakpoint at

babel-loader/src/index.js

Line 215 in 8f88667

if (result) {

, to verify what Babel is generating and what it's returning to webpack.

Thanks, I ended up reverting back to using plugins because I was looking for compiled code and it was available during the plugin compilation.
