Files not referenced in tsconfig are not analyzed

[saberduck]

We don't analyze files that are part of the project, but they are not directly referenced in tsconfig.json. If we have tsconfig.json such as

{
  "files": ["root.ts"]
}

where root.ts imports another file module.ts, which is not referenced in tsconfig.json however it is part of the project build

import * as m from 'module'

module.ts will not be recognized as belonging to project by SonarJS. To be able to recognize it as belonging to the project we would need to create the project using TypeScript APIs (project.getSourceFiles()), and not only parse tsconfig.json file.

As a workaround, project should list all TypeScript files in tsconfig.json file

Hi, as an end-user I'm not sure if I'm reading your description correctly, but I might be having this problem now? I wrote a longer description here but the gist is that if I have 3 entries in my files array, those 3 files get analyzed but the rest of my project, which is imported from the main entry point, does not. Given that the fix above is tagged as milestone 8.7, and we're on server 8.9.8, should I expect this to be resolved?
