A tiny tool to run tsc on specific files without ignoring tsconfig.json
A tiny tool to run tsc on specific files without ignoring tsconfig.json.
``sh`
npm i -D tsc-files
`sh`
yarn add -D tsc-files
I wanted to type-check only the staged files with lint-staged.
Unfortunately passing specific files like tsc --noEmit file1.ts file2.ts will cause TypeScript to simply ignore your tsconfig.json.
There's already an open issue in the TypeScript repo to support this use case — you may want to give a 👍 there: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/27379
With lint-staged:
`json`
{
"lint-staged": {
"*/.ts": "tsc-files --noEmit"
}
}
For the most part, it just forwards all arguments to tsc with one exception: the specified files will not be forwarded — instead, they will be put at the files property of a temporary config that will be generated next to your original tsconfig.json. Other than that, just read tsc --help`.
