Somewhat regularly-built snapshots of Microsoft/TypeScript

This is meant to be used as pre-release builds if you want to try the compiler / compiler API out but don't care to build it yourself. Note that this is a personal endeavor, not officially by Microsoft.

Install

npm install https://github.com/Arnavion/typescript-github/tarball/<release name>

or in your package.json

    "dependencies": {
        "typescript": "https://github.com/Arnavion/typescript-github/tarball/<release name>"
    }

Each release is named after the day it was built and the git commit hash in Microsoft/TypeScript/release-1.5 that it was built from.

Build

Each commit is built using the following commands:

set -e

# Official Microsoft/TypeScript clone
typeScriptDirectory='/stuff/src/typescript'

# Arnavion/typescript-github clone
typeScriptGithubDirectory='/stuff/src/typescript-github'

cd $typeScriptDirectory

git clean -xfd
git fetch origin
git reset --hard origin/release-1.5

commitHash=`git rev-parse HEAD`

# Install jake
npm install jake

# Build once with LKG
./node_modules/.bin/jake release tsc --trace
cp ./built/local/* ./bin/

# Rebuild with itself
./node_modules/.bin/jake release clean local --trace

# Copy output
cp ./built/local/* ./bin/tsc ./bin/tsserver $typeScriptGithubDirectory/bin/

# Manual verification here
# ...

# Commit and push
cd $typeScriptGithubDirectory
< package.json > package.json.new sed -E "s/(\s+\"version\": \")[^\"]+(\",)/\10.$(date +%Y%m%d).0+$commitHash\2/"
mv package.json.new package.json
git add -A

commitName="$(date +%Y-%m-%d)-$commitHash"
git commit -m $commitName
git tag $commitName
git push
git push --tags
