:construction_worker: ts-worker

A simple shorthand to use Node worker_threads.

For now there is only support for ts-node.

Why?

Typescript still doesn't offer worker_threads support. To use them, you need to call a .js file to register on ts-node and then from this file call the .ts worker. To decrease verbosity you can use this package.

Usage

``bash
npm install ts-worker
`

- Import:

`javascript
const TSWorker = require('ts-worker');
`

- ES6:

`javascript
import TSWorker from 'ts-worker';
`

Instantiating a Worker

`javascript
import { Worker } from 'worker_threads'; // Just for typechecking
import TSWorker from 'ts-worker';

const worker: Worker = TSWorker('worker.ts', {
workerData: {
foo: 'bar'
}
});

worker.on('message', msg => console.log(msg));
