Compile multiple TypeScript projects into multiple targets.
npm install tsc-multi !Test
Compile multiple TypeScript projects into multiple targets.
tsc-multi can compile your TypeScript projects into multiple modules (e.g. CommonJS, ESM) or targets (e.g. ES6, ES2018) in parallel.
tsc-multi supports project references, which are very useful for monorepo. It works just like tsc --build. File watching is also supported.
tsc-multi rewrites all import paths in output files to maximize the compatibility across different platforms such as Node.js, web browser and Deno, because import paths are more strict in ESM.
Example:
``ts
// Input
import dir from "./dir";
import file from "./file";
// Output
import dir from "./dir/index.js";
import file from "./file.js";
`
`sh`
npm install tsc-multi --save-dev
Create a tsc-multi.json in the folder.
`json`
{
"targets": [
{ "extname": ".cjs", "module": "commonjs" },
{ "extname": ".mjs", "module": "esnext" }
],
"projects": ["packages/*/tsconfig.json"]
}
Build TypeScript files.
`sh`
tsc-multi
Watch changes and rebuild TypeScript files.
`sh`
tsc-multi --watch
Delete built files.
`sh`
tsc-multi --clean
Build targets. All options except extname will override compilerOptions in tsconfig.json.
`js`
{
// Rename the extension of output files
extname: ".js",
// Skip type-checking (Experimental)
transpileOnly: false,
// Compiler options
module: "esnext",
target: "es2018",
}
Path to TypeScript projects. It can be either a folder which contains tsconfig.json, or the path to tsconfig.json. This option can be set in either config file or CLI.
`js`
[
// CWD
".",
// Folder
"pkg-a",
// tsconfig.json path
"tsconfig.custom.json",
// Glob
"packages/*/tsconfig.json",
];
Specify a custom TypeScript compiler (e.g. [ttypescript]).
Specify the maximum number of concurrent workers.
Watch input files and rebuild when they are changed.
Delete built files. Only available when compilerOptions.rootDir is specified in tsconfig.json.
Print debug logs.
Specify the current working directory (CWD).
Specify the path of the config file. The path can be either a relative path or an absolute path. Default to $CWD/tsc-multi.json.
Specify a custom TypeScript compiler.
Show what would be done but doesn't actually build anything.
Rebuild all projects.
Specify the maximum number of concurrent workers.
- Only file extension can be renamed currently.
- Only CommonJS and ESM are tested currently, AMD, UMD or SystemJS modules may have issues.
- When workers read/write type declaration files (.d.ts), there are few chances that TypeScript compiler might read files that is writing by other workers. This usually only happens on machines with poor IO performance. Set maxWorkers to 1` may help.
