Updating .babelrc to include the paths of JavaScript files for transpilation

Using Babel, I successfully transpiled ES6 JavaScript to ES5 for the project found at

I'm currently stuck on updating my .babelrc file in order to automatically transpile a specific ES6 file to a particular ES5 file.

Can someone guide me on what code needs to be added into my .babelrc file to achieve this? Is it feasible?

This is the current content of my .babelrc file:

{
  "presets": [
    "@babel/preset-env",
    "minify"
  ]
}

The command I execute on iTerm in Mac to perform the transpilation from an ES6 file to an ES5 file is:

npx babel ./assets/js/scripts.js --out-file ./assets/js/scripts.min.js

These are the npm modules that have been installed locally within the project directory:

While Babel's .babelrc files are useful for specifying transformations on input files, they do not determine which specific input or output files will be processed. Therefore, it is not possible to set this configuration within the `.babelrc` file.
