TypeScript with globs
Simple utility that understands glob patterns in tsconfig.json.
Friends don't let friends maintain lists of files.
Installing
Install side-by-side with typescript. e.g.:
npm install typescript
npm install typescript-with-globs
Using
Add a new property called filesGlob where you can use glob patterns:
e.g. tsconfig.json:
{
"compilerOptions": {
"module": "amd",
"outDir": "out",
"target": "es5"
},
"filesGlob": [
"src/*.ts",
"lib/*.d.ts",
"node_modules/monaco-editor-core/monaco.d.ts"
]
}
Instead of tsc, run tscg (note the extra g in the name). This first updates tsconfig.json with the found files and then invokes tsc with the same arguments.
The files property is generated with all the filenames the glob has found. e.g. updated tsconfig.json:
{
"compilerOptions": {
"module": "amd",
"outDir": "out",
"target": "es5"
},
"filesGlob": [
"src/*.ts",
"lib/*.d.ts",
"node_modules/monaco-editor-core/monaco.d.ts"
],
"files": [
"src/languageFeatures.ts",
"src/mode.ts",
"src/monaco.contribution.ts",
"src/tokenization.ts",
"src/typescript.ts",
"src/worker.ts",
"src/workerManager.ts",
"lib/lib-es6-ts.d.ts",
"lib/lib-ts.d.ts",
"lib/typescriptServices.d.ts",
"node_modules/monaco-editor-core/monaco.d.ts"
]
}
